Amendments

1997—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 105–34, § 1454(b)(3), substituted “section 7436(c) or 7463” for “section 7463”.

Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 105–34, § 1452(a), reenacted heading without change and amended text generally. Prior to amendment, text read as follows: “Notwithstanding subsection (a), if—

“(1) an assessment has been made by the Secretary under section 6215 which includes interest as imposed by this title,

“(2) the taxpayer has paid the entire amount of the deficiency plus interest claimed by the Secretary, and

“(3) within 1 year after the date the decision of the Tax Court becomes final under subsection (a), the taxpayer files a petition in the Tax Court for a determination that the amount of interest claimed by the Secretary exceeds the amount of interest imposed by this title,

then the Tax Court may reopen the case solely to determine whether the taxpayer has made an overpayment of such interest and the amount of any such overpayment. If the Tax Court determines under this subsection that the taxpayer has made an overpayment of interest, then that determination shall be treated under section 6512(b)(1) as a determination of an overpayment of tax. An order of the Tax Court redetermining the interest due, when entered upon the records of the court, shall be reviewable in the same manner as a decision of the Tax Court.”
