Functional areas are responsible for reviewing the information in this IRM annually to ensure accuracy, consistency, and to promote effective program administration.

# Program Reviews

3.8.45.1.8 (12-12-2024) Program Reviews Program Reviews are mission critical to the health of accounting and deposit programs to ensure integrity of the general ledger accounts and accuracy of the financial statements. It is essential that each function conducts its operations with an emphasis on mitigating risks, identifying best practices, and adhering to IRM requirements. An objective assessment of program compliance, including all applicable procedures and guidelines, is necessary to ensure that adequate internal controls are in place Program Effectiveness: The program effectiveness includes conducting reviews and analysis to detect and identify material or significant deficiencies that could adversely impact IRS audits and/or financial statements. These reviews are necessary to ensure Submission Processing is conducting business as prescribed in the governing IRM's and are designed to identify potential internal control deficiencies that may impair the integrity of the general ledger accounts and/or financial reporting. Program Reviews: A program review ensures actions are in accordance with IRM procedures. SP HQ Accounting and Deposit Section conducts program reviews to verify compliance with IRM requirements, address TIGTA/GAO findings, identify risks to internal controls, address error trends, and training needs, as needed. In addition, the reviews ensure IRM procedures are applicable, adequate, and adhere to Department of the Treasury and/or IRS guidelines. Program reviews will be planned and conducted based on business needs and priorities. Notification will be provided to the SP campus leadership in advance. Reviews will be conducted to evaluate program delivery and conformance to administrative and/or IRM compliance requirements. The program review summary report will outline observations and recommendations for program guidance, corrective actions, and/or mitigation strategies, as appropriate. A memorandum signed by the Director, SP will be forwarded to the Field Director, SP with a high-level overview of the areas of improvement. Functional areas will retain a copy of the report and all applicable supporting documentation in a centralized location. Corrective Action Plan: The Corrective Action Plan is a plan of action that is developed to resolve the condition that resulted in noncompliance with IRM requirements. In addition, an effective Corrective Action Plan identifies the root cause of problems to minimize or eliminate their recurrence. Corrective actions are developed, implemented, managed, and monitored to promote program improvement. As part of the Program Review process, functional areas are required to provide a written Corrective Action Plan response to the review recommendations within 30 days of receiving the program review summary report. The Corrective Action Plan must include: a. Date of Review b. Program Reviewed c. Recommendation/Risk Identified d. Corrective Action e. Completion Date A copy of the program review and Corrective Action Plan must be retained as substantive documentation and evidence of mitigation and/or remediation of the noncompliance. SP HQ Accounting and Deposit will follow-up up to ensure corrective actions have been taken and to provide any additional and/or ongoing support, as needed. Vulnerability Assessments: A vulnerability assessment identifies, quantifies, and prioritizes the vulnerabilities of government programs and assets including systems/technology, property, funds, and employees. Vulnerability assessments may be conducted on any business process to assess the risks of business failure and/or weakness caused by internal or external factors. Note: Local leadership is encouraged to perform operational reviews to evaluate program delivery and encourage conformance with IRM requirements.

# Introduction

# Cash Management Responsibilities

3.8.45.2.1 (11-13-2017) Cash Management Responsibilities Management at all levels must be committed to ensuring a 24-hour deposit standard. As we work to attain that goal through improved technology, it is very important to deposit the largest amount of money in the shortest possible time frame to maintain good cash management practices. Management must monitor the flow of receipts to ensure that this objective is achieved, although the 24-hour cycle can be extended during peak seasons we are still striving to ensure the 24-hour deposit standard is achieved. Note: Remittances received on Saturday, Sunday and holidays need not be deposited until the next business day (the day following the weekend/holiday). The Receipt and Control Operation is responsible for the receipt, safeguard, accuracy, and timely deposit of all monies received in payment to the Government through IRS. Maintaining the integrity of the IRS received date is required. Credit all payments for the earliest date received by IRS or Department of Treasury. All remittances of $100,000.00 or more must be deposited on the day of extraction. If the remittance is extracted after the daily cut-off time for processing the daily deposit, the remittance must be deposited with the next scheduled deposit that will be delivered to the depository. All remittances of $50,000.00 and up to $99,999.99 must be deposited by the next business day (excluding Saturdays and Sundays). During peak periods identified in (5) below, all attempts must be made to deposit these items the same day of extraction or no later than the next business day. Beginning 1/1/2016, remittances of $100 million or more will not be accepted from taxpayers. The remittance will be returned to the taxpayer by overnight mail if an address is provided or by certified mail if only a PO Box Number is available, informing them that the IRS can no longer accept a single check, money order or cashier's check for $100 Million or more. The check should be stamped "Non-Negotiable". The Federal Reserve Bank and Treasury General Account (TGA) depositories will no longer accept these checks, therefore the IRS cannot deposit these checks. The check will be returned by the depository bank to the IRS campus if deposited. Taxpayers should be instructed in the return letter to follow guidance at Make a Payment for making same day wire payments or submit multiple checks, money orders or cashier's checks to pay their tax obligations. When making same day wire payments at Make a Payment , midway down the page, click on "Same Day Wire Payments". Read the instructions carefully and check on "Same Day Taxpayer Worksheet." Complete the worksheet and take to your financial institution. Note: If there is more than one tax year or tax period, complete a separate worksheet for each payment. If payment is returned with multiple checks, enclose a copy of this letter along with your payment. Note: The campus must notify the Headquarters Manual Deposit Analyst by e-mail when a check for $100 million or more is received. The e-mail must contain a copy of the check, if received with an extension a copy of the extension, and the following information: -Campus name -Date received at campus and is it timely or not timely -Money amount -Taxpayer SSN, name, contact number and form Type (1040, 4868, etc.) -Tax preparer name and contact number -IRS received date, if received from another IRS office and name of office -Date returned to the taxpayer, address, overnight or certified mail tracking information, and any remarks that may be needed Retain copies of the check, forms and letter returned to the taxpayer for one year following the end of the processing calendar year.

The extended cycle for the April peak completion date, for depositing receipts, is determined by the Taxpayer Services Operating Division and sent to the Campuses by memorandum. During mini-peaks or when the remit receipts in the Deposit Function exceed the deposit capacity, the deposit cycle may be extended two business days. However, the extended cycles must not exceed 5 business days. See IRM 3.30.123 , Processing Timeliness: Cycles, Criteria and Critical Dates. The deposit cycle may be extended to a maximum of three business days during the January, April, July and October 31 periods when business returns are received. Schedule two deposit pickups during peak. Daily scheduled receipts must be based on prior year actual receipts. In the event there will not be a deposit for the day, or if the dollar amount of the deposit will be significantly affected due to an unplanned situation or event, the Operations Manager for Receipt and Control or designee must immediately inform the Headquarters Manual Deposit Analyst. When deposit operations resume, inform the Deposit Analyst of the item count and dollar amount of the next deposit. You must also include if you are back on your 24-hour deposit cycle and, if not, when you expect to be timely. Headquarters contacts are listed on the Submission Processing website.

The sender, who is accountable until the funds are received at the destination, must establish a control to ensure delivery of tax receipts and follow up. The control must include amounts of taxpayer receipts by Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) correlated to the package tracer information. For example, if the transit provider informs IRS that package number 12345-67-89 was destroyed, a control is needed that enables proper identification of impacted taxpayer(s) so that relief can be granted. The sender must follow-up within 2 business days to ensure delivery of the remittance package. Access the carrier's website, i.e., ups.com, or usps.com and trace the package. Follow up with the destination contact within 10 working days if necessary.

# Separation of Duties, Sensitive IDRS Command Codes for Remittance Perfection Technicians and any IRS employee with badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area of Receipt and Control

3.8.45.2.3.1 (11-13-2017) Separation of Duties, Sensitive IDRS Command Codes for Remittance Perfection Technicians and any IRS employee with badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area of Receipt and Control Separation of Duties - Managers must ensure that Remittance Perfection Technicians and any IRS employee with badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area of Receipt and Control have only research command codes in their Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS) profiles. Command codes that are considered "sensitive" and can be used to adjust account balances, change the status of a tax module or account, or affect the tax liability, cannot be used by any IRS employee with badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area of Receipt and Control. All IRS employees with badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area of Receipt and Control must have restricted IDRS Profiles. Remittance Perfection Technicians that do not have blank Form 809 responsibilities must have RSTRK with Definer U activated on their IDRS profiles. Refer to IRM Exhibit 10.8.34-11, Restricted Command Codes for the Role: Remittance Perfection Technicians Who Do Not Have Blank Form 809 Responsibilities (RSTRK Definer U). This will allow for the use of Command Code URADD that is needed to deposit and process Unidentified remittances. Managers must ensure that only employees that are assigned to work Unidentified Deposits have Command Code URADD in their IDRS profile. When reviewing employees' profiles, any profiles that contain URADD and zero times accessed, should be assessed for need. Managers with Remittance Perfection Technicians that have blank Form 809 responsibilities should follow guidance in IRM 3.8.47.2 (7) f, Remittance Policy, for activating IDRS profiles with Command Code RSTRK with definer R. Refer to IRM Exhibit 10.8.34-10 Restricted Command Codes for the Role: 809 Receipt Book Users and Submission Processing Employees issue, verify, or reconcile blank Form 809 (RSTRK Definer R). IRS employees other than Remittance Perfection Technicians with IDRS access and badge access (R on Badge) to the Receipt and Control restricted area, must have IDRS Command Code RSTRK with Definer U added to their IDRS profile. For example, any Image Control Team(ICT) employee that normally works outside the restricted area of Receipt and Control and also has badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area must have RSTRK with Definer U placed on their IDRS profile. If the ICT employee does not have badge access (R on Badge) to the restricted area, but is given a temporary badge to perform duties within the restricted area, they must have Command Code RSTRK with Definer U added to their IDRS profile before they proceed to the Receipt and Control restricted area to perform those duties.

# OTCnet

3.8.45.3.2 (04-25-2011) OTCnet The Over the Counter Channel Application (OTCnet) is a secure web-based application that: Automates the Over the Counter (OTC) deposit reporting process and captures detailed accounting information at the point of deposit to facilitate the classification of monies daily. Provides federal agencies with the ability to track deposits from the point of entry to final posting. Eliminates dual entry, keying errors and creates a combined Standard Form 215A (SF 215A), Deposit Ticket, and Financial Institution deposit slip information. Provides financial institutions the ability to confirm the electronic deposit ticket, create electronic adjustments, and submit the confirmed deposit tickets and adjustments into Ca$hlink II without the necessity of re-keying the deposit ticket data. As campuses use OTCnet to create deposit tickets, employees in the Deposit Function are designated as Deposit Preparer's, Deposit Approver's, and Agency Viewer's. See the roles and responsibilities of these employees in IRM 3.8.45.3.2.1, OTCnet User Roles and Responsibilities, below.

# OTCnet User Roles and Responsibilities

3.8.45.3.2.1 (03-19-2015) OTCnet User Roles and Responsibilities OTCnet users are assigned a role which determines what functions the user can perform. The following are OTCnet roles: Primary Local Security Administrator (PLSA) - Headquarters Analyst that establishes Local Security Administrators (LSA) to delegate user provisioning and other functions; creates, modifies, and deletes permissions for LSAs, Accounting Specialists, Deposit Preparer's, Deposit Approver's, Deposit Confirmer's and Viewer's. Accounting Specialist - Headquarters Analyst that creates the organization's hierarchy, enters and modifies IRS accounting codes, defines processing options and custom labels, and creates user defined fields. Local Security Administrator (LSA) at Campuses establishes local users on OTCnet. Creates, modifies, and deletes permissions for Deposit Preparer's, Deposit Approvers and Viewers and views reports. Deposit Preparers at Campuses create and modify the deposit ticket. Deposit Approvers at Campuses approve and submit the deposit ticket. Deposit Confirmers at the Depositary Bank confirm, adjust, or reject deposits. Viewer at Campuses, Headquarters or other designated locations, views and searches deposits and adjustments and views reports. Note: A person may be designated as a Deposit Preparer and a Deposit Approver. However, due to separation of duties, the same person cannot prepare and approve deposits. Contact your local Planning and Analysis Analyst for names and telephone numbers of the current designated Receipt and Control Coordinator, Accounting Coordinator, and Local Security Administrator for each Campus if needed. All OTCnet users must complete the training provided on the Bureau of Fiscal Services OTCnet web site prior to being given access to OTCnet. The Bureau of Fiscal Services web site to provide guidance and training can be found at OTCnet Job Aids for the OTCnet Deposit Preparer, Deposit Approver and Agency Viewer can be accessed through this site. The Bureau of Fiscal Services OTCnet web site will be the source for OTCnet training. The OTCnet Deposit Preparer and Deposit Approver Job Aids should be used for instructions on accessing OTCnet and for preparing and approving deposits in OTCnet. The OTCnet Agency Viewer Job Aid should be used for instructions on accessing OTCnet, searching deposits and adjustments and viewing business reports in OTCnet. For questions or assistance using OTCnet, contact the ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡or by e-mail at ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡. Note: The training web site is used by all agencies using OTCnet and is not customized for any one agency. The Local Security Administrator must create a profile in OTCnet for each employee identified as an OTCnet user. After completing the online training course, each user must complete the OTCnet user Authorization Form. The OTCnet User Authorization Form captures information needed to set up an employee as an agency user in OTCnet. The OTCnet Rules of Behavior is signed by each user as a certification of the rules of the Treasury Web Application Infrastructure (TWAI) System Security Plan. (TWAI is an environment that houses Treasury web applications such as OTCnet.) Original signature is required on the OTCnet User Authorization Form and Rules of Behavior Form. The OTCnet user Authorization Form and OTCnet Rules of Behavior Form verifying successful completion of training can be obtained from your campus LSA. Managers will submit the employees' OTCnet User Authorization Form and Rules of Behavior Form to your LSA to be granted access to OTCnet. Once OTCnet permission has been assigned, the employee will receive three emails. The first e-mail will provide the employee a user ID. The second will provide the employee a temporary password and the last will provide the employee permission to OTCnet. After receiving a user ID and password, the employee must login to the TWAI to change their temporary password and provide answers to their secondary authentication questions. Users must login to OTCnet at least once every 90 days or your access will be deactivated on the 90th calendar day since your last access date. Users that have not accessed their OTCnet account for 120 days will have their access deleted on the 120th calendar day since their last access date. If this occurs, you will be required to reapply for access to OTCnet. The LSA must be notified within 24-hours if OTCnet access is no longer required by an employee for any reason or if the current access needs to be modified. Specific guidance for Deposit Preparers, Deposit Approvers and Agency Viewers is provided in printable job aids found in the On-the-Job Resources and Simulations link at Training Overview.

# OTCnet Contingency Plan

3.8.45.3.2.1.1 (07-19-2024) OTCnet Contingency Plan If OTCnet experiences an outage or if the campus is unable to access OTCnet due to local problems, the deposit ticket WILL NOT be created in OTCnet. Campuses must call the OTCnet Help Desk for further instructions at 866-945-7920.

# OTCnet Failed Item Code 184

3.8.45.3.2.1.2 (11-21-2025) OTCnet Failed Item Code 184 An OTCnet failed item is a remittance that was not successfully processed on OTCnet and is not included in the day's deposit ticket. ISRP remittance processing at the Austin, Kansas City, and Ogden campuses through OTCnet simultaneously processes the tax account and scans the payment for deposit. The batch scheduler must check for OTCnet failed items at the end of the day or by the following business morning and have failed items removed from the tax account if necessary. Failed Item Code 184 (Reject Corrupt Or Missing Image) does not require removal from the tax account. Generally, a batch scheduler in Receipt and Control refers to IRM 3.8.44.10.6, OTCnet Failed Items, for procedures. An accounting technician in Dishonored Check Function refers to IRM 3.17.10.2.2.3, Integrated Submission and Remittance Processing for the Electronic Check Process, for procedures if the failed item has to be removed from the tax account. Failed Item Code 184 (Reject Corrupt Or Missing Image) does not require removing the item from a tax account. Follow IRM 3.8.45.3, Deposit Procedures (General), and perform a re-deposit only. Follow the steps below to search for failed item(s): Logon to OTCnet in CIRA query role. Click Check Processing tab. Select CIRA Query. Scroll down to Settlement Status and select Failed. Enter the dates of deposit in the calendar feature. The display of failed item(s) appears. Click on the Item Reference Number (IRN) and the check image appears. If a failed item requires removal from a tax account, then send an e-mail to the servicing Dishonored Check Function (DCF) e-mail box: Austin campus e-mail is TS.OTCnet.AUSC.ACO@irs.gov Kansas City campus e-mail is TS.OTCnet.KCSC.ACO@irs.gov, or Ogden campus e-mail is TS.OTCnet.OSC.ACO@irs.gov. For OTCnet failed items received from Lockbox. Process as follows: Batch Scheduler (or designee) must pull images from RTR to verify missing or corrupt image. Manual Deposit technicians will list remittances on Form 784. Create a Deposit Ticket in OTCnet. Indicate "Lockbox Redeposit" and add the sequence number and the Re-deposit number in Box 6. Run remittances through the encoder and endorse the checks for US Bank. If documents are received with the remittances, route address changes or other pertinent items to the appropriate area. If the documents are 1040-ES or 1040-V and no further action is required, hold for 5 days then discard in classified waste. If Lockbox notifies the campus of the Failed Item Code 184 via email, forward the email to Accounting for information purposes.

# Trace ID and Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB)

3.8.45.3.3 (07-03-2025) Trace ID and Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB) The Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB) is an enhancement to the Financial Management Information system created to track all individual payments that comprise a deposit ticket, and balance the individual transactions against the deposit ticket totals which have been entered in the Revenue Accounting Control System (RACS) General Ledger. As of January 1, 2008, all payments will be assigned a 20 digit Trace ID Number for tracking purposes. CDDB will track all individual payments against the Deposit Ticket totals, which have been entered in the RACS General Ledger. This unique Trace ID Number will allow all payments to be identified and added to the CDDB. For Manual Deposit Tickets, the Trace ID Number is assigned by the Batch Block Tracking System (BBTS). The first 14 digits represent the Deposit Ticket Trace ID Number, and the last six numbers represent the Transaction Sequence Number of each individual payment that comprises the Deposit Ticket. The Transaction Sequence Number begins with 000001 and is sequentially assigned to payments within a Deposit Ticket. The format of the 20 digit Trace ID Number is shown below. System ID 15 will be used for Manual Deposits. Parts Characters Definition Site ID nn SP Campus File Location Code(FLC) or another Site ID System ID nn As defined in the Deposit Ticket Trace ID Number. The values are identified as follows: 01 Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) 02 ISRP Payment Transactions 05 Lockbox bank Transactions 10 SITLP Levy Payments 12 Receipt and Control Manual Deposits for External Leads and Accounting CIR deposits for External Leads (Effective July 15, 2013) 15 Receipt and Control Manual Deposits 20 RACS DCF Debit Voucher (DV) 25 Accounting Deposit Ticket and DV 30 FTD Deposit Ticket/Debit Voucher 35 IDRS IA User Fee Sweep 40 Automated Insolvency Manual DT 45 Automated OIC Manual DT 50 ITIN 55 Field Assistance Function (TAC) Deposit Date YYYYDDD Julian Date Sequence Number nnn For each Deposit Date, begin with 001 and increment each additional Deposit by 1. Transaction Sequence Number nnnnnn or zero This field is relevant only in the CDDB Detail Payment Record File. For each payment summarized in a Deposit Ticket, beginning with 000001, sequentially increment the Transaction Sequence Number for each Transaction in the CDDB Detail Payment Record File. DO NOT PRINT THIS FIELD ON ANY DEPOSIT TICKET. If the BBTS System is not operational and therefore unable to generate Trace ID Numbers and Form 813/ Form 813-A, the Trace ID Numbers must then be manually constructed for each deposit ticket utilizing the format in IRM 3.8.45.3.3 (3) a, Trace ID and Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB). Use Sequence Numbers (format position 12, 13 and 14) beginning with 900 through 999 to avoid duplicating with previously issued BBTS Trace ID Numbers. (Example: nn15yyyyddd900nnnnnn). Utilize the fillable Form 813 (Rev. 09-2009), (Catalog Number 16866C) and Form 813-A (Catalog Number 20660A) on the Publishing website at Find a Product for input of the Trace ID Number and other information needed for processing. Notify Accounting that the Form 813 must be prepared for processing by Data Conversion to establish the Document Locator Number (DLN) on the Service Center Control File (SCCF), as there will not be an output from BBTS to establish the DLN. See IRM 3.17.30.3.2.3(5), Form 813 Document Register. To ensure Trace ID Numbers are not duplicated, a quick review of all Trace ID Numbers manually assigned should be performed on deposit documentation before entering the deposit information into OTCnet and releasing the work to Accounting and for ISRP processing. The Trace ID Number for Manual Deposits will be obtained from BBTS. All Manual Deposit employees assigned responsibility for accessing BBTS must submit a Business Entitlement Access Request System (BEARS) request at Log in to BEARS, Information System User Registration/Change Request to obtain access. BBTS will print the Trace ID Number on the bottom left of Form 813-A and assign a Transaction Sequence Number to each payment on Form 813. Manual Deposit must access Batch Blocking Tracking System after Form 813-A is generated and print a copy of Form 813 with the assigned Transaction Sequence Numbers. Input the 14 digit Trace ID Number in the CDDB area of the related Deposit Ticket. Stamp, using the Trace ID Stamps provided by Headquarters, the 20 digit Trace ID Number in the bottom margin of each document. DO NOT enter the Trace ID Number on the remittance check. Note: The Trace ID may be manually notated with a green pen/marker if all Trace ID stamps are not operational. For payments received with returns that must be processed through Manual Deposit, the payment and the return must be separated. A Form 3244 must be prepared to process the payment through ISRP using Transaction Code 610. The ISRP System was not programmed with a Trace ID Number Field for program numbers associated with return processing, only revenue receipt program numbers were programmed with a Trace ID Number Field. To enable the Trace ID Number to be processed through the GMF Pipeline System and to Master File for posting to the CDDB Database, the Document 3244 must be prepared for input to the ISRP System. Stamp the Trace ID number on the Form 3244 as noted in (5)c above. The Trace ID number may be typed when utilizing the electronic version of the Form 3244. The return must also be processed through ISRP with the appropriate non-revenue receipt program number. Note: See IRM 3.8.45.16, Foreign Check Remittances, for Trace ID procedures for Foreign Deposits.

# Control of Source Document

3.8.45.4 (01-23-2023) Control of Source Document Each campus should establish local procedures for controlling the source documents and remittances throughout payment processing. However, the source documents must remain in searchable order until the correction and balancing processes are complete. IRM 3.8.44.5.1, Remittance Processing System (RPS) Control of Source Document. All envelopes should remain with remittances through final deposit. After the deposit is balanced and released to the depository, each campus will coordinate local procedures for routing and distribution of the source documents. If payments are received from Private Collection Agencies (PCA) with check posting information included on the Form 3210, make a photocopy of the Form 3210 with a photocopy watermark and send it with the check to PPU for accurate posting of the payment. Send the original Form 3210 to be acknowledged.

# Payment Perfection Procedures

3.8.45.5 (01-01-2011) Payment Perfection Procedures This subsection contains procedures for perfecting documents received in Payment Perfection from the Extraction process.

# General

3.8.45.5.1 (01-01-2011) General The Payment Perfection function within the Deposit Activity performs analysis and research on remittances and returns/documents that require additional preparation prior to depositing money. They also code or edit for other functional areas to ensure all taxpayer information is available to credit taxpayer accounts. Checks for $50,000 and over will be identified as a large check and receive priority handling. Checks for $1 million and over must be expedited for immediate processing. Batches totaling over $99,999,999.99 should be broken down into two (2) batches.

# Remittance Perfection

3.8.45.5.2 (11-21-2025) Remittance Perfection Types of possible remittances the IRS campus may receive for processing can include any of the following. Personal Check Money Order Cashier's Check. Cash, see IRM 3.8.45.25, Cash Clerks Function Business Check Certified Check Voucher Check Treasury Check Draft/Postcard Type Check Silver Coins (U.S. Currency Only) Gold Coins (U.S. Currency Only) Traveler's Checks Note: Taxpayers may also pay taxes by credit card by phone. Types of taxes that can be paid by credit card are listed in IRM 21.2.1.48.6Credit or Debit Card Payments (Pay by Phone or Internet). Remittance perfection technicians may not process credit card payments to taxpayer accounts. Electronic funds transfer is another payment method. IRM 3.8.45, Manual Deposit Process, prescribes procedures for paper remittance processing. Keep remittance with source document; do not staple together. Prior to processing, remove check stubs and any staples attached. If payee is IRS only, CASH or blank, stamp United States Treasury on payee line. Note: The "UNLESS FOR CREDIT TO THE UNITED STATES TREASURY, THIS INSTRUMENT IS NON-NEGOTIABLE" stamp may be used on the payee line if the stamp is small enough as to not cover any other information on the check. Money orders must have either the name of the taxpayer or TIN. If the taxpayer's name or TIN is not present or legible, enter taxpayer's name or TIN as it appears on the accompanying source document. When traveler's checks are received by mail, compare the counter signature with the original signature. If the signatures match, process the payment. When traveler's checks are received in person (walk-in customers on an exception basis), witness countersigning and compare to the original signature on the traveler's check. If the traveler's check has only one signature, send it back to the taxpayer. If the signatures do not match, forward to your local TIGTA office. Misdirected payments received from Private Collection Agencies should have a photocopy of the Form 3210 attached to the payment. If there is not a copy of the Form 3210 attached, find the Form 3210, make a photocopy with a photocopy watermark and send it with the check to PPU for accurate posting of the payment. The PPU manager must log every PCA payment on the 'Private Collection Agency Misdirected Payments Log', even if a F3210 was not received, for the current processing year . The PPU lead or designated SME must also process the payment. The PPU lead or designated SME must use the posting information notated on the Form 3210 rather than information on the check. Send the original Form 3210 to be acknowledged. When gold coins are received from a taxpayer, Verify they are U.S. currency. If not U.S. currency, return to the taxpayer according to IRM 3.8.45.5.10, Unacceptable Payments. If U.S. currency, immediately contact the Property Appraisal and Liquidation (PAL) Specialist at the telephone number shown below.

# "Postmark Date" and "Received Date"

3.8.45.5.4 (07-03-2025) "Postmark Date" and "Received Date" This subsection contains procedures for determining the postmark date on mail received from a designated Private Delivery Service (PDS) or the United States Postal Service (USPS), including Private Metered mail delivered by the USPS. The postmark date is used to determine timely mailing/timely filing. It is important that the extractor keep the envelope attached to a form or document when the postmark date is required. IRC 7502(f) provides what is commonly called the "timely mailing-timely filing" rule. Note: Rev. Rul. 2002-23 added the "timely mailed/timely filed" rule under IRC 7502 to include Foreign Postmarks. Most foreign returns for people living outside of the United States or military personnel with an APO/FPO address have an additional 60 days to file their return. This ruling allows them the extra 60 days from the original due date to postmark their return or extension to be considered timely filed. The extension date is the same for foreign and domestic returns, based on the type of return (Form). Exception: Any "non-USPS" metered mail that has a date inconsistent with the normal delivery timeframe should not be used. Examples are "Click and Ship", Pitney-Bowes stamps, and Private Metered, etc. An example of an inconsistent "Postmark" date would be April 15 and delivered on May 15. If the "normal" delivery time appears to be 7 days for USPS First Class mail, then do not consider the "self-made Postmark" as a valid date to determine timely mailing. Use the following rules to determine the postmark date for mail delivered by the United States Postal Service (USPS), Private Metered (USPS), and designated Private Delivery Services (PDS). If a container/envelope has both a USPS postmark and a private metered postmark, always use the USPS postmark. If a container/envelope has only a private metered postmark, use it as the postmark date. If the container/envelope is from a designated Private Delivery Services (PDS's) outlined in IRM 3.10.72.2.4.3 , Private Delivery Service (PDS), use the date on the "drop-off" date shown on the label (if provided) as the postmark, or use the rules for type of delivery service shown in IRM 3.10.72.6.2.4 , Determining Postmark Date, (e.g. Next Day, Overnight, etc.). If the tax return, payment, or extension is mailed USPS "Certified" and the postmark date is missing or later than the Due Date, you must find the postmark date via USPS Tracking using the digits underneath the bar code on the green label. The "Acceptance" and "Date & Time" is the postmark date. Give the envelope to a designated person with internet access to perform this action. If the Postmark is not the same as the "Acceptance Date", print the page from the USPS website and attach it to the front of the document. Follow normal dual date stamping procedures, if multiple documents are enclosed in one envelope using the "Acceptance" date as the postmark date. If there are multiple documents, Receipt and Control must stamp the received date on the first document and attach the envelope to the oldest tax period return, then stamp both the postmark date and received date on all subsequent documents contained in the envelope (or use a Dual Date stamp). If using single stamps, stamp the postmark date in the left margin and received date on the face (page one) of the document in an area that does not cover taxpayer information on all subsequent documents. This instruction is for USPS First Class mail (not Certified) and for non-designated Private Delivery Service mail. See IRM 3.10.72.6.2.4. If the postmark is illegible, leave the postmark date portion blank, or "blank it out". If the postmark is missing (i.e., only a bar code is sprayed by the USPS on the envelope, instead of a stamped postmark), edit "Missing" in place of the date portion of Postmark. If the postmark is "incorrect/inconsistent", edit "Incorrect" in place of the date portion of Postmark. For U.S. Virgin Islands Cover Over Program, double stamp each return using the Postmark Date and Received Date provided by the P&A Staff.

# Unsigned Checks/Unsigned Returns

3.8.45.5.5 (06-28-2012) Unsigned Checks/Unsigned Returns If a remittance is unsigned and the amount of the check can be determined, process the check. The signature line on the check does not have to be stamped "Drawee Bank Obtain Signature." Note: If the remittance is foreign, return it to the taxpayer. An unsigned return received with a remittance should be processed with a TC 670. Use local procedures for routing unsigned returns to Code and Edit for correspondence to taxpayer. An edited "R" or stamped "$" should be placed in the Top Left Corner of the return before routing. An unsigned Individual Master File (IMF) return that was returned for signature and is sent back with proper signature(s) later with/remittance should be processed with a TC 610 (not a TC 670) using the appropriate IRS received date. Note: An unsigned return may be stamped with an IRS received date if received after the grace period, but should be circled by Code and Edit when they send back to the taxpayer with correspondence requesting signature (plus any other missing/inconsistent items). Code and Edit will edit/stamp "Returned for Signature" and the correspondence date in the bottom margin. Do Not use the correspondence date to post any remit. Ensure you post any remittance with the correct IRS received date (i.e., the date the remit was received with a valid signed return).

# Money Amounts

3.8.45.5.6 (05-05-2021) Money Amounts The following table should be used to determine how to process the payment: If Then The numeric amount is legible and matches the written amount Process the payment using the numeric amount.

Annotate, in pencil, the amount used above the remittance date line. The numeric and written amounts do not match, and neither one matches the source document or there is no source document Research the taxpayer's account to determine if a payment pattern matches either one of the amounts. If a pattern exists for one of the amounts, process the payment with that amount. If a pattern cannot be determined process the payment using the written amount from the remittance. Annotate, in pencil, the amount used above the remittance date line. There is a statement on the check "Not Valid for Less Than $XXX.00" and the check amount is less Stamp the check "Non-Negotiable" and return to taxpayer using Letter 4480.

3.8.45.5.8.1 (07-07-2017) Discovered Remittances Over 30 Days Old Discovered remittances that are 30 days or older must be researched by Payment Perfection. Determine the 30 days, first by the Received Date, then by the date of the check if unable to determine the received date. If appropriate, action must be taken to prevent adverse taxpayer impact. Contact the taxpayer by telephone and ask if a replacement check was sent. If there is no indication on IDRS that a replacement check has been received, but there is an open control base, contact the responsible employee for instruction as to how the remittance should be handled. If a replacement check was received, ask the responsible employee about the discovered remittance. If there is indication that the replacement check was received and no open control base, take the following steps: Stamp the remittance "Non-Negotiable" . Return the remittance to the taxpayer along with a note indicating why remittance is being returned. If interest and penalties were assessed on the replacement remittance, complete Form 3210, with explanation, provide backup documentation, and coordinate with local Receipt and Control and Accounting Planning and Analysis analysts to establish routing procedures to Accounting Operations for abatement of the erroneous assessment. If no replacement remittance was received, process using the original IRS received date. Note: If the check has an expiration date and the current date is beyond it, return the check to the taxpayer as unprocessable. If the check has no expiration date, process using normal procedures.

# Questionable Payments

3.8.45.5.12 (07-28-2025) Questionable Payments Campuses are receiving questionable remittances that resemble checks and money orders. In most cases, these remittances show the taxpayer and the "United States Bureau of Internal Revenue" as payees. The bogus remittances may include other identifying characteristics. DO NOT PROCESS ANY REMITTANCES CONTAINING THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS: Unusual or no financial Institution name. If U.S. Treasury, UST, Bureau of Fiscal Service, or BFS is printed as the financial institution with the 1500 Pennsylvania Ave address. Payments with the phrase "Without Recourse" present or where the RTN is the Federal Reserve and the Account # is the 9 digit filer's TIN. Monetary instruments printed on check quality paper or photocopying paper. Monetary instruments that reference Title 31 United States Code(USC) 371. No bank routing information. (All American checks have a nine-digit number surrounded by symbols |:|:,e.g., |:123456789|:). If the TP's TIN (SSN or EIN) is in use where the routing number should be. A lien number. The words "Certified Bankers Check" , Public Office Money Certificate, Certified Documentary Draft, "Lien Draft" , "Certified Money Certificate" , "Do Not Deposit" , "Not for Deposit" , "For Set off/Adjustment/Discharge" , "EFT Only for Discharge of Debt" , and "Comptroller Warrant" , Remit at Par , "Done in Good Faith" , VOID where prohibited by law, Apply to principle at settlement closure, Payable at Presentment - Form 809 Request.

Figure 3.8.45-1 ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ Please click here for the text description of the image. A large majority of the bogus remittances are received by "Certified" or "Registered" mail. They may be accompanied by the following documents: A letter requesting a refund for overpayment or the taxpayer renouncing their U.S. citizenship. A document titled "WARRANT PROCESSING PROCEDURES" has been attached to several of the bogus remittances. THIS IS NOT A LEGAL OR VALID DOCUMENT. DO NOT PROCESS A REMITTANCE BECAUSE IT IS ATTACHED TO THE WARRANT PROCESSING PROCEDURES. Check Correspondence for like terms as in f) above. Upon receipt of a suspicious remittance, process using the following procedures. Avoid removing evidence or lifting finger or palm prints. Handle the remittance, envelope, and any correspondence as little as possible. Place remittance in a check saver. If there is any doubt about the legitimacy of a payment, immediately contact your manager and the manager should then contact the Remittance Security Coordinator. The Remittance Security Coordinator should then determine if they should contact the Frivolous Return Program (FRP) or the local Office of the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) in your Campus. Do not contact the taxpayer, payer, banking institution or remitter indicated on the remittance to ascertain if the item is legitimate or not. Do not refer or discuss the questionable remittance with anyone or any Agency outside the IRS. This includes supplying photocopies or faxing the item to anyone other than an authorized IRS employee. In the event the Frivolous Return Program chooses not to pursue the matter, return the phony remittance to the taxpayer using Letter 4480. In addition to including the remittance in the letter, state the Campus' Director or delegated IRS employee who has the authority to refuse acceptance of a remittance if there is doubt that it would be honored upon presentation to a financial institution. The appropriate definition should be included as the basis for return of the remittance. Do not issue Form 809, Receipt for Payment of Taxes, for questionable or known bogus remittance. If the remittance is deemed credible and returned to the site for processing, Form 809 may be issued at that time. Prepare Form 3210, Document Transmittal for any questionable payment referred to the Frivolous Return Program. Annotate on Form 3210 the taxpayer's name, TIN, type of payment (i.e., check, draft, money certificate), payment amount, tax form, tax year, received date, and/or any other pertinent information concerning the payment. Mail the questionable payment package with Form 3210, Document Transmittal to the Ogden Service Center FRP team at: Internal Revenue Service Attn: FRP M/S 4450 1973 N. Rulon White Blvd. Ogden, UT 84404 See IRM 25.25.10.3 , Referrals to Frivolous Return Program for additional information. Campuses receiving questionable/bogus remittances and returns from Lockbox banks along with a valid cashier's check or valid money order drawn on the Lockbox bank for small amounts of cash ($1.00 or $2.00) will deposit the valid cashier's checks or money orders drawn on the Lockbox bank to Unidentified Remittance File (URF) and send the remainder of the questionable/bogus checks and documents to the Frivolous Filer Program at the address above in IRM 3.8.45.5.12 (4).

# Processing Payments Received with a 2-D Barcode Notice

3.8.45.5.14.1 (07-28-2014) Processing Payments Received with a 2-D Barcode Notice To protect taxpayer's identity information the Office of Privacy, Governmental Liaison and Disclosure (PGLD) has initiated a project to replace the printed SSN on selected taxpayer non-balance due notices with a 2-D Barcode. This effort will eliminate or reduce the full display of taxpayer Social Security numbers on these notices. PGLD has supplied each Submission Processing Campus Receipt and Control Operations with two handheld scanners that will read the 2-D Barcode and provide taxpayer information needed to process the payment if received with these non-balance due notices. The scanner can be used by holding the scanner and pulling the trigger button to scan the 2-D Barcode on the notice, or the scanner can be placed in the provided stand and simply scan the 2-D Barcode by running the notice under the scanner. The following are general instructions for using the scanners. Plug the scanner into the Universal Serial Bus (USB) Port of your computer. Access Microsoft Word. A copy of the "Configuration Barcodes for Notices" sheet, that should have been received with the scanners, will need to be used to obtain the information needed for processing the payment. Scan the appropriate Barcode on the "Configuration Barcodes for Notices" sheet of paper and listen for the beep. After the beep, scan the 2-D Barcode on the notice. The scanner should beep again, and the taxpayer information should appear in the Microsoft Word document on the computer screen. If the scanner fails to identify the SSN, use Command Code TPIIP. Refer to IDRS Command Codes Job Aid. Command Code TPIIP uses the last four digits of the SSN and the first ten characters of the last name (or less if there are less than ten characters in the last name) to search for the matching name(s) and address(es). The scanners should be placed in a locked cabinet after hours of operation. If any balance due notices are received with a 2-D Barcode and no scan line, please contact the HQ Deposit analyst.

# Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the Same Unit)

3.8.45.5.16 (02-21-2017) Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the Same Unit) Business Master File(BMF) original returns/documents processed through ISRP must include certain information. If not present, edit the source document with the missing information. EIN. Check digit or name control. Tax Period must be edited in YYMM format if not present or fiscal year. Total amount shown in penalty and interest box acceptable if included in payment. Received Date. See IRM 3.8.45.5.16 (7), Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the same Unit), below for further instructions. BMF documents other than original forms must contain the information listed below. Edit the missing information on the source document. EIN. Check Digit or Name Control. Tax Period edited in YYMM format. Transaction Code (TC). Master File Tax (MFT) Code. Received Date. See IRM 3.8.45.5.16 (7), Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the Same Unit), below for further instructions. IMF original returns must contain the information listed below. Edit the missing information on the source document. SSN/ITIN. Name (name control when two last names are present). Tax Period edited in YYMM format for fiscal year. Received Date. See IRM 3.8.45.5.16 (7), Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the Same Unit), below for further instructions. IMF documents other than original must contain the information listed below. Edit the missing information on the source document. SSN/ITIN. Name (name control when two last names are present). Tax Period edited in YYMM format. Transaction Code. MFT Code. Received Date. See IRM 3.8.45.5.16 (7), Return/Document Perfection for ISRP Processing (Not in the Same Unit), below for further instructions. IMF return/document received with primary name and ITIN change must be researched. Review returns for indication of Amnesty cases or "new SSN," to determine if SSN is entered correctly. If taxpayer indicates "new SSN," circle out all other SSN's. If a copy of a U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) letter is attached to the return, transfer SSN/ITIN from the letter to the return. Do not use SSN on Form W-2. The SSN on the Form W-2 can be used for research ONLY. If "Applied For" is entered in the SSN box of the return, review attachments for an INS Letter or indication of "new SSN." Taxpayer may indicate that they have filed Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. If unable to determine correct SSN, process the payment through Unidentified. Use the following procedures for BMF return/document with TIN or name change. Procedures should be set up between the Entity Function and Deposit Function to have a tax examiner from Entity come to pre-search area daily or to fax, e-mail, or hand-carry to Entity. Procedures should allow for the immediate return of the information to ensure the 24-hour deposit time frame is met. Assign EIN's to returns/documents that are received indicating an EIN has been applied for and not yet assigned. Entity's tax examiner will be given any other EIN (name) problems to resolve. Further instructions are as follows: Date stamp using the "Block Header Date" tag from ISRP. If no "Block Header Date" , date stamp using the post mark date on envelope. If no envelope is available or the post mark is illegible, date stamp using the date on the remittance.

# Form W-7 Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (For All Campuses Except Austin)

3.8.45.5.17 (09-18-2017) Form W-7 Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (For All Campuses Except Austin) Form W-7 is an application for an individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) for non-citizens. ITIN's may not be issued without a Return or some proof of a need for an ITIN. That means ITIN's will not be issued for 2-3 weeks from receipt of the request. Remittances received with Form W-7 should be processed using the procedures below. When a Form W-7 for a spouse or dependent(s) is received with a remittance and a return with a primary SSN, process the payment through ISRP and apply the payment to the primary taxpayer's SSN. All Form W-7 received at campuses other than Austin must be forwarded with a Form 3210, Document Transmittal to the ITIN Unit at the following address. Include the return, source documents, and attachments received with Form W-7. IRS-AUSPC 3651 South Interregional Hwy 35 Austin, Texas 78741-7855 ITIN Extraction Stop 6052 When a return and remittance are received with Form W-7, but no primary SSN is present on the return and the primary SSN cannot be determined, process the payment to Unidentified. Route the documentation and a photocopy of the check with the Unidentified written or stamped on it to the Austin Submission Processing Campus (AUSPC) at the address listed above. When a return and remittance are received, and the return indicates "Applied For" (no Form W-7 is attached), the following steps should be taken to process the remittance and return: Research of the ITIN system may be used to possibly identify the ITIN for payment application. If an ITIN is found, prepare Form 3244, Payment Posting Voucher, for application of the payment. The return should be annotated with the ITIN for further pipeline processing. Note: A BEARS request must be input to gain access to the ITIN system for research capabilities. The application "ITIN Other RTS Users (ITIN Real-time System)" must be selected. Employees must have access to the Employee User Portal (EUP) before completing the BEARS Request for the ITIN system. Employees may register for access to EUP at User Registration. If the ITIN cannot be identified, secure an IRSN from the Entity Function to process the payment. Form 9956 may be requested by the Entity function for completion with the needed information for assignment of the IRSN. Coordinate with the Entity function to ensure the 24-hour timeframe for deposit of the payment is met. See IRM 3.13.5.74,Assignment of Internal Revenue Service Numbers (IRSN's). Annotate the corresponding return with the IRSN for further pipeline processing. During peak season, the Entity function workload may prevent the assignment of the IRSN within the 24-hour timeframe. In these instances, apply the payment to Unidentified and route the IRSN information to the Unidentified Team in Accounting when received back from Entity. A photocopy of the check with the Unidentified DLN written or stamped on it and needed documentation should accompany the Deposit Package that is sent to the Accounting Operations. Annotate the corresponding return with the IRSN for further pipeline processing. When a Form W-7 only is received with a remittance, apply the payment to Unidentified. Route the documentation and a photocopy of the check with the Unidentified DLN written or stamped on it to the AUSPC at the address listed above. Note: Failure to write or stamp the Unidentified DLN on the check will result in the Austin Accounting Unidentified Team possibly being unable to identify which Campus to return the ITIN information to for Unidentified processing. This will cause the Unidentified cases to age in the Accounting Unidentified inventory. If a payment is received with a CP 48 to renew an ITIN or if a payment is received with an expired ITIN, the payment should be processed with the existing or expired ITIN.

# Telephone Contact to Taxpayers

3.8.45.5.18 (09-23-2011) Telephone Contact to Taxpayers If IDRS research fails to identify proper application of a remittance, telephone contact may be made with taxpayers. Strict adherence to disclosure requirements must be maintained. Refer to IRM's 11.3, Disclosure of Official Information. Extreme care must be taken when speaking to taxpayers or their appropriate officers to obtain information. Identify yourself immediately. Use Federal Telecommunications System 2000 (FTS2000), whenever possible, to contact taxpayers. If the taxpayer asks for any account information, refer them to 800-829-1040. If the taxpayers' phone number is not available on the remittance or document, obtain the phone number from Directory Assistance (FTS, taxpayer's area code, and 555-1212) or any on-line Directory Assistance tools. Note: FTS is for official Government use only. Make IMF calls after 9 a.m. during normal business hours, unless a specific time was requested. Make BMF calls during normal business hours of 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. The Quality Communication Job Aid Quality Communication Job Aid provides guidance on the quality of communications and a self-study module.

# Specific Name/Functional Area is Identified on the Notice/Letter

3.8.45.5.18.1 (01-01-2011) Specific Name/Functional Area is Identified on the Notice/Letter A functional area may receive a call regarding any matter assigned to a specific employee or function, usually noted on the notice or letter. If the taxpayer asks for information specific to their account, refer them to 800-829-1040.

# Mutilated Checks

3.8.45.5.19 (08-15-2022) Mutilated Checks Mail-opening equipment can mutilate checks during processing. When this occurs, remittance processors should tape the check back together, place in a transparent sleeve, and deposit through ISRP. The financial institution will determine if a mutilated check can be processed. If it cannot be processed, the check will be returned to IRS by the financial institution and processed by the Dishonored Check function as outlined in IRM 3.17.10, Dishonored Check File (DCF) and Unidentified Remittance File (URF). Additional guidance on mutilated checks is listed in the table below: If Then The payment voucher or accompanying information is unclear Follow IDRS Presearch procedures. The condition of the mutilated check precludes identification of the taxpayer, and there is no posting information Credit the payment to the Unidentified Remittance File. The remittance is not repairable/processable and there is insufficient information to contact the taxpayer Turn the remittance over to the Operations Manager of Receipt and Control to destroy. To destroy checks in accordance with IRS Policy; cross-cut shred the checks, and place them in the SDD bins. Note: If your financial institution charges extra to process the transparent sleeve through ISRP, deposit through Manual.

# Returned Refund/Rebate/Treasury Government Checks for Payment of Taxes

3.8.45.5.20 (11-30-2021) Returned Refund/Rebate/Treasury Government Checks for Payment of Taxes Payment Perfection Unit (PPU) will receive all Government Checks from the Extraction Unit that have been stamped below the "Pay to the order of" line with the following statement "UNLESS FOR CREDIT TO THE UNITED STATES TREASURY, THIS INSTRUMENT IS NON-NEGOTIABLE" . PPU must separate the valid government checks for payment of taxes from returned refund checks. All remittances where the payee line is made payable to the United States Treasury, Internal Revenue Service, Commissioner, Department of the Treasury, Social Security Administration or variations of any agency or department of the United States Government should be construed to be a payment to the United States Government. Process the valid government checks for payment of taxes through normal processing. Forward all Returned Refund/Rebate /Treasury Checks along with any document(s) to the Refund Inquiry Unit in a sealed envelope or container using Form 3210, Document Transmittal. Form 3210 must list the following information from each check: Check Symbol Check Number Amount If the Refund Inquiry Unit is located in another building, ensure the checks are sealed in an envelope and placed in a lockable canvas bag or container, or double wrapped and double sealed in opaque paper envelope or box. Note: If a returned refund/rebate/treasury check is received with a return and the Statute of Limitations is in jeopardy, clear the return by the Statute Control Group before being forwarding to Refund Inquiry with the returned refund check/rebate. If a Returned Refund/Rebate/Treasury Check accompanies a valid payment of taxes, or is endorsed by the payee, process as follows: Prepare a posting document for the valid payment of taxes and process through normal processing. Apply the payment to the taxpayer's account with TC 670/TC 570. If a taxpayer returns their Advance Child Tax Credit (ACTC) payment for Tax Year 2021 to the IRS process as follows: Post payment with a TC 670 using Designated Payment code (DPC) 63. If the taxpayer returns a Treasury Check with a legend indicating "Advance Child Tax Credit" , forward the treasury check along with any documentation to the Refund Inquiry Unit using the instructions in IRM 3.8.45.5.20 (5), Returned Refund/Rebate/Treasury Government Checks for Payment of Taxes, above. Management Reviews. Managerial reviews by the supervisor must be conducted and documented at least quarterly to ensure adherence to internal controls for the security of the returned refund checks forwarded to Refund Inquiry on Form 3210, Document Transmittal. Management may, at its discretion, conduct these managerial reviews at more frequent intervals. The review should ensure all Forms 3210 sent to Refund Inquiry are received back and acknowledged with a signature from the appropriate Refund Inquiry official.

# Basic Manual IDRS Research for Payment Perfection

3.8.45.5.21 (03-04-2019) Basic Manual IDRS Research for Payment Perfection The Integrated Automation Technologies (IAT) Tool for Payment Perfection (formerly known as the IDRS Decision Assisting Program (IDAP) Tool for Payment Perfection) is required to be utilized to perform IDRS research. This subsection provides general guidance for only a few basic scenarios relative to Payment Perfection IDRS research. Refer to these instructions in the absence of the IAT macro for payment research. Also, in this subsection are a few IDRS command codes that are required to be researched in order to apply a payment accurately. This is not an all-inclusive list. It is intended only to provide a basic point to begin payment research. There will be situations when more extensive research may be required, for example, the procedures outlined in IRM 3.8.45.11.2, Analysis of PPU Presearch. Refer to ADP/IDRS handbooks, referenced IRM's and Job Aids for complete information. There is also information on SERP: SERP - IDRS Command Code Job Aid. The job aids on this site are viewable and easily printed. Scenario THEN IF IMF IF BMF IF Both IMF and BMF THEN THEN a. Payment Received with check only and the only identifying information is the name and address on the check. Research to whom the payment should be applied. Use: CC NAMEB and CC NAMEE for a BMF EIN. CC NAMEI and CC NAMES for an IMF SSN. Determine where (tax-period and MFT) and how (transaction code) the payment should be applied. Use: CC SUMRY to display an index of all tax modules available for an SSN. If no modules exist on CC SUMRY, check CC IMFOLI. CC IMFOLT displays specific tax module amounts, dates including Collection Statute Expiration Date (CSED) and a listing of posted transactions. If multiple tax periods have the same CSED date, apply to the earliest tax period. Determine where (tax-period and MFT) and how (transaction code) the payment should be applied. Use: CC SUMRY to display an index of all tax modules for an EIN. If no modules exist on CC SUMRY, check CC BMFOLI. CC BMFOLT displays specific tax module amounts, dates including CSED and a listing of posted transactions. If multiple tax periods have the same CSED date, apply to the earliest tax period with a debit balance. b. Payment received and the only information available is the TIN. Use CC ENMOD to determine necessary entity information. CC INOLE displays name line information available for any TIN. CC INOLEX displays (SSA) name controls, cross-reference, and merge transaction information. Follow the THEN procedures in scenario a. above. Follow the THEN procedures in scenario a. above. c. Payment received with TIN, tax period and name of taxpayer. If SSN, go to IF IMF column. If EIN, go to IF BMF column. Apply payment to the SSN, tax period and tax form as indicated. Refer to Document 6209 or IRM 3.8.45.3.1, Valid Transaction Codes for Remittance Processing, for appropriate transaction code. Apply the payment to the EIN and tax period and form type designated. Research CC BMFOLI/CC BMFOLT for appropriate MFT, if necessary. Refer to Document 6209 or IRM 3.8.45.3.1, Valid Transaction Codes for Remittance Processing for appropriate transaction code. d. Receive a payment without tax period or name and research described in scenario b. indicates the account is in installment agreement status. Research CC SUMRY for the module in Status 60, 61, 63, 64 (Status 14 for Estate Installment Agreements) and apply the payment to the module with the earliest unexpired CSED. (Refer to IRM 3.8.45.11.2, Cash Deposit Procedures, for more detail.) If CC SUMRY indicates that the module with the earliest unexpired CSED has an assessed module balance of zero, post the payment to this module and the system will calculate accruals and roll any remaining balance to the subsequent modules in CSED order. If CC SUMRY indicates that the module with the earliest unexpired CSED has an assessed module balance of zero, post the payment to this module and the system will calculate accruals and roll any remaining balances to the subsequent modules in CSED order. e. Receive a payment for an EPMF return that requires a Plan Number. Then research CC EMFOLI for the Plan Number. If Entity or payment information is required, follow steps outlined in scenario a. and b. above. f. Receive a payment and research indicates there is no balance due on IDRS or CFOL. Post payment to the current year due. Post the payment to the current year due. Post the payment to the current year due (Form 1120 or current quarter Form 941, as appropriate). To determine appropriate quarter, refer to IRM 3.8.44-2, Date Stamp Column. g. A payment is accompanied by the second page of the tax return. Research IDRS to determine if the original return has posted (TC 150 for the tax period). The tax period is contained at the top or at the bottom of the tax return. If the return has posted, input a TC 670 to post the payment. If the return has not posted, input a TC 610 to post the payment. CC TXMOD and/or CC IMFOLT. CC TXMOD and/or CC BMFOLT. Always check cross-referenced TIN to ensure proper posting. The IRM's for the above-mentioned IDRS Command Codes are as follows: Command Code IRM Reference (Screen Display) BMFOL IRM 2.3.59,Command Codes BMFOL and BMFOR EMFOL IRM 2.3.64, Command Code EMFOL ENMOD IRM 2.3.15, Command Code ENMOD IMFOL IRM 2.3.51, Command Code IMFOL INOLE IRM 2.3.47, Command Codes INOLE, EOGEN, and SPARQ NAMEE and NAMEB IRM 2.3.60, Command Codes NAMES, NAMEE, NAMEI, NAMEB, FINDS, FINDE, and TPIIP SUMRY and TXMOD IRM 2.3.11, Command Codes TXMOD and SUMRY While performing research of taxpayer accounts, Remittance Perfection Technicians may come across an account that is blocked on IDRS and can be identified by an IDRS security violation message, "Unauthorized Access to This Account". Forward the case to the Manual Deposit function to deposit as an Unidentified Remittance, see IRM 3.8.45.11.3, Unidentified Remittances. The Unidentified Remittance File (URF) function in Accounting will be responsible for notifying the local Planning & Analysis Staff who will take the necessary steps for requesting access to the account for posting the payment.

# Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 965 Payments

3.8.45.5.22 (04-02-2024) Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 965 Payments Remittances received that are identified as Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 965 payments should be processed by the Payment Perfection Unit (PPU) in Receipt and Control. IRC Section 965 payments can be identified on the payment or source documents if "IRC Section 965", "Section 965", "965", or Transition Tax, or similar indication the payment is intended as an IRC Section 965 payment. This indication is located in the top margin of the tax returns/payment posting vouchers listed below or anywhere on the paper check. These payments can be received with the following IMF or BMF Forms/MFT's and taxpayers are instructed to send these payments to the appropriate locations as follows: Form 990-PF, (MFT 44) (Ogden) Form 990-T, (MFT 34) (Ogden) Form 1040, (MFT 30/31) (Lockbox Banks) Form 1041, (MFT 05) (Kansas City, Ogden according to state mapping) Form 1065, (MFT 06) (Kansas City, Ogden according to state mapping) Form 1120, (MFT 02) (Kansas City, Ogden according to state mapping) Form 1120-C, (MFT 02) (Ogden) Form 1120-L, (MFT 02) (Ogden) Form 1120-PC, (MFT 02) (Ogden) Form 1120-POL, (MFT 02) (Ogden) Form 1120-REIT, (MFT 02) (EFTPS or Same-Day Wire only) Form 1120-RIC, (MFT 02) (Kansas City, Ogden according to state mapping) Form 1120-S, (MFT 02) (Kansas City, Ogden according to state mapping) Any Notice or Letter that notates 965 Payment. Form 1040 - The majority of IRC 965 payments sent in with a Form 1040 will be received by a Lockbox bank. 1040 Instructions for IRC 965 payments instruct the taxpayer to file electronically or to write two paper checks, one for the 1040 payment and one for the IRC 965 payment. Lockbox banks will process the 1040 payments and route the IRC 965 payments to the Submission Processing Campus with the Lockbox Unprocessables. If the taxpayer indicates an IRC 965 payment but only makes out one check, that will also be sent to the campus with the Lockbox Unprocessables for processing. If the taxpayer sends in two checks but the Lockbox bank cannot determine which payment is for the IRC 965 payment, both payments will be sent to the campus with the Lockbox Unprocessables. If the taxpayer sends an IRC 965 payment with a Form 1040 directly to a Submission Processing Campus, Extracting should route the payment to the Payment Perfection Unit for processing. BMF Form 990-T, Form 1041, Form 1120, Form 1120-L, Form 1120-PC, Form 1120-REIT, Form 1120-RIC, Form 1120-S and Form 1065 will be received at a Submission Processing Campus according to form instructions. The Extracting function will forward IRC 965 payments to Payment Perfection for processing. IRC 965 Transfer Agreement module, MFT 82 (IMF) or 83 (BMF). Post payments received with a CP 56 (IMF) or CP 256 (BMF) annual installment notice payment voucher as a TC 670/570 DPC 64 on the specified module from the CP 56/256 voucher. Taxpayers sending IRC 965 payments often write the year of the installment payment on the check instead of the 965 inclusion year. When Received without a CP 56 (IMF) or CP 256 (BMF) Annual Installment Notice Payment Voucher, research using CC IMFOLM/BMFOLM to ensure application to the correct tax period. When the amount of the IRC 965 payment cannot be immediately determined by the check/checks or documentation, PPU should process the entire payment(s) as a TC 670/570 with DPC 64 according to the If/Then table below. Process IRC 965 payments according to the following If/then table: If... Then... One check on return/voucher identified as "IRC 965" 1. If the check amount matches what the taxpayer designated as the IRC 965 payment on the documentation or check indicates IRC 965. Process the payment with TC 670/570 and DPC 64 to the module with the IRC 965 liability. 2. If the check amount is for both the IRC payment and the IMF/BMF tax liability payment and the IRC 965 payment amount and the IMF/BMF tax liability payment amount can be clearly determined from the check or documentation. Split the check payment between the tax liability (TC 610) or (TC 670/460) if received with an extension; and the IRC 965 payment (TC 670/TC 570) with DPC 64 to the module with the IRC 965 liability per taxpayer intent. 3. If the IRC 965 payment amount cannot be determined. Process the entire payment as (TC 670/TC 570) with DPC 64 to the module with the IRC965 liability. Note: If the payment is received with an extension, pull the extension and batch as a non-remittance to ensure the extension is processed. 4. If taxpayer specified the tax period and notates IRC 965 in the memo portion of the check. Validate the tax period with IRC965 liability and process the payment to the module with the IRC965 liability as a TC 670/570 DPC 64. 5. If a designated IRC 965 payment comes in with a 1040-V or 1040-ES voucher. Process the payment to the module specified as a TC 670/570 DPC 64. If two checks on return/voucher identified as "IRC 965"... 6. If two checks are received and one can be identified as an IRC 965 payment and the other as an IMF/BMF tax liability payment. Process the check identified as a tax liability payment with (TC 610) or (TC 670/460) if received with an extension; and the second check identified as an IRC 965 payment with TC 670/TC 570) and with a DPC 64 to the module with the IRC 965 liability per taxpayer intent. 7. If the two checks do not identify which check is for the IRC 965 payment. Process both checks as (TC 670/TC 570) with DPC 64 to the module with the IRC 965 liability. Note: If the payment is received with an extension, pull the extension and batch as a non-remittance to ensure the extension is processed. If IRC 965 payment posting vouchers are identified during the destruction process of RPS payment posting vouchers, pull the IRC 965 documents and follow instructions in IRM 3.8.45.11.2, Analysis of PPU Presearch. As these documents were processed through RPS and not PPU as instructed in IRM 3.8.45.5.22, Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 965 Payments, they may not have been processed with the needed TC 670/570 with DPC 64. The taxpayer's account will need to be corrected to reflect the TC 670/570 with DPC 64.

When multiples need to be processed, follow procedures below. See example in Exhibit 3.8.45-5. When processing accompanying return/voucher/notice as the posting document, the following applies: Run a calculator tape to ensure the total equals the document(s). Note: Adding machine tape is optional for payments processed via Info Connect by the Payment Perfection Team, as ISRP will not accept the payments unless they balance. When processing payments manually, run an adding machine tape to ensure the deposit is balanced prior to release. Edit "M" and the number of remittances in the upper left-hand corner of all remittances and the document. If a Form 3244 or equivalent needs to be prepared, edit the original document and route to the appropriate function as non-remittance. Follow the above instructions to process the remittances. A split remittance is one remittance received with more than one return/document (can be more than one taxpayer) and/or more than one tax period. See example in Exhibit 3.8.45-4 . Verify remittance amount to tax periods, returns/documents balance due lines. If remittance and return/documents balance due lines agree, green rocker balance due lines. If money amounts disagree, starting with oldest tax period, apply remittance amount to returns/documents from oldest to most current. Note: Only one tax period and/or MFT can be allowed per posting document. If last return/document is underpaid, edit the remittance amount in green to the left of the balance due line. If last return/document is overpaid, apply excess remittance to the oldest collection statute expiration date (CSED) and edit remittance amount in green to the left of the balance due line. Edit "S" and the number of returns/documents in the upper left-hand corner of all remittances and all returns/documents if less than 50. If split consists of more than 50, edit the remittance only. Process through ISRP or Manual Deposit. Prepare adding machine tape for each split return/document edited amount and total. Route to ISRP labeled as "splits." Note: Adding machine tape is optional for payments processed via InfoConnect by the Payment Perfection Team, as ISRP will not accept the payments unless they balance. When processing payments manually, run an adding machine tape to ensure the deposit is balanced prior to release. Multiples and Split remittance(s) and returns/documents received combined are processed through ISRP or Manual Deposit as follows: Verify remittances with return(s) /document(s) balance due lines. If amounts agree, green rocker balance due lines. If amounts don't agree, edit remittance amount in green to the left of the balance due lines. Remittance that overpaid the balance due must be applied to the document with the oldest CSED. Remittance that under paid the balance due subtract the difference from the most current year taxes owed, edit the amount to the left of the balance due line. Process remaining returns/documents as non-remittances. Edit "S" and number of returns/documents in upper left corner of remittances and returns/documents. Edit "M" and number of checks in the upper left corner of remittance and returns/documents. Edit "S" and number of returns/documents in upper left corner of remittances and returns/documents. Prepare adding machine tape for each Split/Multi return/document edited amount and total. On the same tape list check amounts and total. Both totals must equal. Note: Adding machine tape is optional for payments processed via Info Connect by the Payment Perfection Team, as ISRP will not accept the payments unless they balance. When processing payments manually, run an adding machine tape to ensure the deposit is balanced prior to release. Attach adding machine tape to first return/document. Process through ISRP or Manual Deposit. Example: 5 documents received with one check = S5: 3 checks received with one return = M3; 5 documents received and 3 checks = S5 M3 .

# Civil Penalty Cases

3.8.45.8.7 (06-07-2021) Civil Penalty Cases Most civil penalties, including Trust Fund Recovery Penalties, were originally processed NMF. Most civil penalties have been transferred to Civil Penalty Modules (CVPN); for IMF use MFT 55, for BMF use MFT 13. Remittances received with CP 251, CP 253, Letter 98C, Letter 99C, Notice 972CG, CP 2100 or CP 2102 are processed to IMF/BMF civil penalty modules using MFT 55/MFT 13/MFT 01 with TC 640. Process through ISRP. Note: Look for indication on the check or otherwise stated by the taxpayer when making payments for backup withholding. (Taxpayer will indicate by using the word Federal Income Tax (FIT) or comment on their Form 1099 for backup withholding). Before 1994, backup withholding was reported on Form 941. For 1994 and after, apply using MFT 16 and Doc Code 17. For 1993 and prior, apply to the taxpayer's Form 941. Reminder: When a CP 253 or Letter 98C is received with a payment, you MUST post the money amount to MFT 13, even though the tear-off stub indicates it is an MFT 88. Remittances received with Form 8125, Form 8126, Form 8488, and Form 8489 are processed to IMF/BMF Civil Penalty modules using MFT 55/MFT 13, with TC 670 and process through ISRP. Do not enter TC 570 for Form 8125, Form 8126, Form 8488 or Form 8489. Remittance received with Form 8027 should be processed using TC 640. Prepare Form 3244 with MFT 13 to the Employer's EIN. Research is required for new and subsequent payments received without Form 8126, Form 8488,Form 8489, CP 251,CP 253, Letter 98C, Letter 99C, Notice 972CG, CP 2100 or CP 2102; check the Taxpayer Information File (TIF) for IMF/BMF civil penalty modules even if taxpayer furnishes TIN followed by the letter "N" ("N" may or may not be present as a file source on IDRS). When researching IMF, BMF or NMF use CC SUMRY or CC TXMOD. Reminder: When a CP 253 or Letter 98C is received with a payment, you MUST post the money amount to MFT 13, even though the tear off stub indicates it is a MFT 88. If penalty is for tax period 1994 and subsequent, process with MFT 55, MFT 13 or MFT 01 through ISRP. Enter TC 640 for CP 251, CP 253, Letter 98C, Letter 99C, Notice 972CG, CP 2100 and CP 2102. Enter TC 670 for Form 8207, Form 8125, Form 8126, Form 8488 and Form 8489. If penalty is for tax period 1993 and prior, process with MFT 17 through ISRP. Notice 972CG is a civil penalty proposal notice. Payments may be received in response to this notice, but there will be no assessment on the Master File. Process remittances as follows: Use MFT 55 for IMF, or MFT 13 for BMF. Use TC 640. Process through ISRP. If a payment is received without Notice 972CG, but there is an indication that the payment is in response to the Notice 972CG, prepare Form 3244 (or equivalent) and post the payment as stated above. Payments may be received with a Letter 3145 payment voucher. Letter 3145 is a Dyed Fuel Penalty 30 day letter. If there is a reference to TC 240 with or without a reference code on the voucher, post the payment as a TC 640. After processing, route Form 8125, Form 8126, Form 8488, Form 8489, Letter 972CG, CP 2100 and CP 2102 to Philadelphia IRP Civil Penalty Function BLN 4-G08.151 and CP 251, CP 253, Letter 98C and Letter 99C to Memphis CAWR function at Stop 814.

When a remittance is received only with related documentation that states that an offer is being made, transship the payment and all related documentation to COIC in Memphis or Brookhaven. When a remittance is received without any accompanying documentation to identify the payment as COIC, when a remittance is received with only "OIC" annotated on the remittance or when taxpayer intent cannot be determined, DO NOT transship the payment. Follow the MOIC procedures in IRM 3.8.45.8.38.2, Monitored Offers in Compromise (MOIC), below. Offer cases are assigned based on where the taxpayer resides. See more information at the Offer-in-Compromise (OIC) Website at: Offer in Compromise (OIC) Centralized Service Center Locations. All offer packages must be transshipped through overnight traceable method through Form 3210, Document Transmittal. Form 3210 must list each taxpayer's name and the amount of the related remittance.

# Monitored Offers in Compromise (MOIC)

Underline the tax period. When multiple tax periods are levied, process Full Paid or Part Paid remittances as perfect. Apply remittance to the earliest tax period as the payment should split and roll to the appropriate tax period.

# ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection

3.8.45.10.5 (11-21-2025) ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection The following subsection provides the definition for ACS payments and instruction in the use of Designated Payment Codes (DPC). The Integrated Automation Technologies (IAT) Tool, (formerly known as the IDRS Decision Assisting Program (IDAP)) is required to be used when researching all ACS payments whether perfect or imperfect. This subsection also provides general guidance for manual IDRS research and application of ACS payments if the IAT system is unavailable. An ACS payment is usually sent to one of the ACS P.O. Boxes listed in section 3 below and can be defined as: A payment received with a Form 668-A , "Notice of Levy" . This is a one-time garnishment to the taxpayer's bank account that will be sent to the IRS by a financial institution as a third party check. A payment received with a Form 668-W , "Notice of Levy on Wages, Salary, and Other Income" , These payments are remitted to the IRS through the taxpayer's employer as a third party check. A Levy payment received without a Form 668-A or Form 668-W. A payment received from the taxpayer in response to Form 8519, "Taxpayers Copy of Notice of Levy." Federal Agency Levy payments that are issued on Department of the Treasury checks. Note: If over-stamping is necessary, be careful not to obscure the taxpayer's SSN. Third Party payments received with obsolete IRS ACS P.O. Box addresses that have been forwarded by the United States Post Office to one of the consolidated ACS sites. These payments should be treated as if they were received directly in the Consolidated ACS sites P.O. Box. Follow all the procedures and definitions outlined in this subsection when processing these payments. Note: For items forwarded by the USPS, use the date the items are received by the consolidated sites as the IRS Received date. If by chance they have been transshipped from another IRS office, use the date that it was received by the first IRS office. Payments received from the taxpayer on a personal check, cashier's check, or money order and the taxpayer indicates it is intended as an ACS payment, e.g., an ACS (LTnn) Letter is attached." Note: DO NOT apply a DPC Code to a taxpayer payment. The payment must be from a third party. Any payment received from a third party in which the third party indicates on the check or posting document it is a "garnishment." The above mentioned remittances are received by the consolidated ACS Payment Processing Sites P.O. Box addresses listed in Exhibit 3.8.45-12 . The following steps should be taken when applying the payment to the taxpayer's account. See Exhibit 3.8.45-13 IRM Exhibit 5.19.1-9, Installment Agreement Locator Numbers, provides an explanation of the XXYY fields of the ALN. Note: The IAT Tool could only be programmed to research the first X-Ref TIN. Manual research will have to be completed when there is more than one X-Ref TIN. Use the instructions in the absence of the IAT Tool. DO NOT apply a DPC Code to a Taxpayer payment. The ALN 08 that appears in the YY positions (XXYY) is defined as a Continuous Wage Levy, from ACS or a Revenue Office. The YY position denotes conditions affecting the agreement. If... Then... If... Then... 1. the IAT Tool is unavailable Use These Instructions for research 2. Status is 60 AND The ALN ends with XX08 AND The payment was received from a third party Apply DPC 05 3. Status is 60 AND The ALN end with other than 08OR The payment was received from the taxpayer DO NOT apply a DPC code 4. Research shows there is no balance due, Status is 22 or 60 Check CC INOLES for an X-Ref TIN If Filing Status Code is "2" (IMF only) AND the Debt Indicator Field is "I" or the Debt Indicator is an "I" and an "F" Apply payment to the X-Ref TIN using research procedures in ACS Research steps 4) and 5) in the above table. 5. Payment cannot be determined using ACS Research Steps 4) and 5) in the above table OR an X-Ref TIN cannot be found Continue to Step 7 6. An X-Ref TIN is found BUT the Filing Status Code is other than "2" (IMF only) AND the Debt indicator Field is other than "I" Continue to Step 7 7. There is no current or prior Status 22 or Status 60 modules for the primary Taxpayer or x-Ref TIN Apply payment to the most recent tax module on the primary TIN. Apply DPC Code according to instructions in IRM 3.8.45.10.5, ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection If there is no prior "LEVY" category control set Create a control base to ACS through CC ACTON only when using DPC 05. Note: When controlling the account use the correct Control Base Number listed above in IRM 3.8.45.10.5 (3), ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection. 8. An X-Ref TIN was found but the Filing Status Code is other than "2" and the Debt Indicator Field is other than "I" Apply payment to the most recent tax module on the primary TIN. Apply DPC Code according to instructions in IRM 3.8.45.10.5 (6) , ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection If there is no prior "LEVY" category set Create a control base to ACS through CC ACTON only when using DPC 05. Note: When controlling the account use the correct Control Base Number listed above in IRM 3.8.45.10.5 (5) , ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection, which is based on BOD and State mapping The IAT Tool should be used to determine application of the ACS Payment and assignment of the DPC Code. If the DPC Box in the IAT Tool displays N/A or if No Balance Due Message is displayed, do not enter a DPC Code. In the absence of the IAT Tool, the following table outlines what DPC should be used for each type of ACS payment.

# PPU IDRS Presearch

3.8.45.11 (01-01-2011) PPU IDRS Presearch The Integrated Data Retrieval System is used to research taxpayers accounts to determine or verify proper application of remittances.

# PPU General

3.8.45.11.1 (01-01-2011) PPU General Remittances without necessary identification to apply to Master File (MF) and Non Master File (NMF) must be researched through the Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS), the Automated NMF System and the Automated Collection System (ACS), when appropriate. Apply payment to the Unidentified Remittance File (URF) if research or telephone contact to taxpayer fails to identify payment application and/or instructions. (Refer to IRM 3.8.45.11.2(5), Analysis of PPU Presearch). Remittances must be deposited within 48 hours of the received date of principal mail drop. Maximum of up to 96 hours if indications are that a follow-up action will result in applying a credit to the taxpayer's account. Deposit Activity's perfection function's research capability and expertise are limited and should not extend beyond terminal research, telephone contacts to taxpayers and requests for Command Code MFTRA, CC BMFOL, CC IMFOL, or Automated NMF transcripts. Managers must maintain an inventory log of total receipts by received date, items researched, closures, telephone calls made, and items not deposited. Set up folders to strictly control each received date. Remittances of $50,000 and over must receive priority handling. Remittances of less than $1 may be deposited into the 6540 account by preparing Form 2007 , Schedule of Small Credits Cleared.

# Analysis of PPU Presearch

3.8.45.11.2 (04-16-2025) Analysis of PPU Presearch Use taxpayer intent when applying payments. Taxpayer intent for perfecting payments is defined as any original, written or typed information on a remittance, tax form, payment posting voucher, correspondence or document that has not been altered or lined through, that is needed to post a payment. IDRS research is not necessary, if the taxpayer has designated: Form type (Actual form, MFT, literals or wording that associate the payment with a form Type, i.e., FUTA, Estate, Unemployment, Individual, Corporate, etc., should be used to determine form Type) Tax year or multiple tax years TIN (SSN or EIN) Name control There is no indication the payment is intended as an installment agreement payment. (If the payment is received with a form, notice or letter notating an installment agreement, written words such as installment agreement, installment, payment, payment plan, or monthly payment, these are indications of an installment agreement. In this case, see IRM 3.8.45.11.2(3), Analysis of PPU Presearch, below) Apply remittance to the earliest tax period when taxpayer has designated multiple tax years. The payment should split and roll to the appropriate tax period. Post payment with the appropriate transaction code. (Refer to Document 6209 or IRM 3.8.45.3.1, Valid Transaction Codes for Remittance Processing). Note: If the taxpayer has clearly designated the application of the payment but has not included all the above information, research IDRS for only the missing information. If there is conflicting information on the documentation, remittance or both, then research IDRS to determine the correct application of the payment. However, if a remittance is received with a CP Notice, IRS letter or form and the amount of the check is the same as the amount on the CP Notice, IRS letter or form, process the payment with the tax period from the CP Notice, IRS letter or form whenever there are conflicting tax periods. No research is necessary. Note: If payments are received from a Private Collection Agency (PCA), the payment should be applied using the posting information on the Form 3210. Do Not Contact the PCA directly, by letter or phone. If unsure as to where to apply a payment, send an email including a copy of the check to the *SBSE PDC Questions mailbox. If the taxpayer has not clearly designated the application of the payment and has not provided an IRS balance due notice, an in-depth review and analysis may be necessary before the payment can be applied accurately. If a payment is received with a non-remittance form, research the taxpayer's account and apply the payment using the research instructions in IRM 3.8.45.5.21, Basic Manual IDRS Research for Payment Perfection. If a payment is received from a third party and Levy or Garnishment is indicated on the remittance, payment posting voucher or documentation, process the payment following instructions in IRM 3.8.45.10.5, ACS IDRS Manual Research for Payment Perfection. The following steps discuss how to identify and process an installment agreement payment: Generally, taxpayer intent is used when applying payments; however, the taxpayer cannot designate the application of their installment agreement payment. If there is an indication that the payment is for an installment agreement (received with a form, notice or letter notating an installment agreement, written words such as installment agreement, installment payment, payment plan, or monthly payment), research for the earliest CSED. Exception: If an IRS Balance Due Notice or Letter is provided, use the tax year of the notice/letter. Collection Status Codes 12 Full Paid, no Balance Due 20, 21, 54, 56, 58 1st through 4th Notice, Balance Due 22, 24 ACS Balance Due 23 Below Tolerance, Balance due 26 Field Collection Cases 53 Currently not collectible, Balance Due 60, 61, 63, 64 Installment Agreement, Balance Due 71 OIC Pending Note: An expired CSED is one on which the statute date has passed (for example, 12/21/2004 is an expired CSED). Even if there is a balance due, do not apply a payment to a CSED on which the statute date has passed. The earliest CSED is the one that is set to expire first. Status 14 is an Estate (Form 706 ) with Installment Agreement privileges. These payments require extra care. Failure to properly identify and apply the payment will result in default of the installment agreement and unnecessary collection action. If the payment exceeds the balance on the module with the earliest CSED, apply the entire payment to the earliest unexpired CSED. The system will automatically calculate the accruals and roll any remaining balance to the subsequent modules in CSED order. If the payment is not for an installment agreement (Status 60, Status 61, Status 63, Status 64, or Status 14), refer to the following: Use taxpayer intent when applying payments if the taxpayer has indicated where the payment should be applied, and the TIN and Name Control are present. See IRM 3.8.45.11.2 (1), Analysis of PPU Presearch. If payments should be designated, follow IRM 21.1.7.9.21,Multiple/Split Remittances. If there are no modules in balance due status and the payment is not an ACS/Levy payment, then research CC TXMOD/CC TXMODA or CC IMFOLT/CC BMFOLT for the following audit indicators: TC 420, TC 424, "L" Freeze Code. If any of these indicators are present on CC TXMOD/TXMODA or CC IMFOLT/CC BMFOLT, apply payment with TC 640 to indicate Audit, various MFT's. Check for CP 2000 indicators: TC 922, "F" Freeze Code, and/or Campus' URP control number. If any are present on CC TXMOD/CC TXMODA or CC IMFOLT/CC BMFOLT, apply payment with TC 640, MFT 30. Check for Letter 2030 indicators: TC 925, "F" Freeze Code, and/or open IDRS control base with control category code "BUR0", "BUR1", "BURS" or "BURC" controlled to employee number, 048xxxxxxx.'s. If any are present on CC TXMOD/CC TXMODA or CC IMFOLT/CC BMFOLT, apply payment with TC 640, MFT 05 Form 1041 or MFT 02 Form 1120. Check for substitute for return (SFR) indicators, varies at each SC. Apply as TC 640, MFT 30. If IDRS/CFOL is unavailable, retain work until research can be accomplished. If remittance is $1,000 or larger, photocopy front and back of remittance for later research. Deposit the original remittance into the Unidentified Remittance File (URF). If research and/or telephone contact with the taxpayer (refer to IRM 3.8.45.5.18, Telephone Contact to Taxpayers ) does not result in the application of the payment, process as an Unidentified Remittance using the procedures in IRM 3.8.45.11.3 , Unidentified Remittances. If research of the RTR System or a loose document/orphan determines that a correction to the taxpayer's account may be needed as a result of the payment posting incorrectly, or if IRC 965 payments are found during the RPS payment posting voucher destruction process which indicates they were not processed through PPU with a TC 670/570 and DPC 64, coordinate with the local Receipt and Control and Accounting Planning and Analysis Analysts to establish routing procedures for sending the document and documentation (i.e., IDRS Print, RTR print) to Accounting for completion of the correction, or route to the appropriate function. Secured e-mail can be used to provide information or if physical documents are needed ensure Form 3210 is utilized and provide a description of the incorrect posting on Form 3210. Update the NOTES feature of the RTR system with an explanation of the payment posting error that needs correcting. Follow instructions in IRM 3.8.44.5.1(3), Remittance Processing System (RPS) Control of Source Document, for destruction of source documents used as payment posting vouchers.

# Unidentified Remittances

3.8.45.11.3 (03-12-2020) Unidentified Remittances Unidentified Remittance File (URF). Source documents that cannot be perfected because of insufficient information to apply remittance are input as unidentified payments. Review source document to ensure the following are true: No information is available for application, Telephone contact cannot be made, Review each source document and edit in green the following information: Taxpayer's or business' full name. If the name is unknown or illegible, edit source document "TPUN" (Taxpayer unknown) or "UNKNOWN." Taxpayer's or business's full address. Date stamp source document. If no received date, use postmark on envelope. If no envelope or illegible postmark, use date on remittance. Note: See IRM Exhibit 3.8.44-3, Timely Postmark Checklist, for specific instructions on postmarks. Trace ID number. See IRM 3.8.45.3.3, Trace ID and Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB), for instructions on obtaining Trace ID numbers. Photocopy front of remittance for further research in Accounting Operations. Photocopy back of remittances made payable to taxpayer and endorsed to IRS. Use a numbering machine to stamp the unidentified remittance (UR) control number (DLN) on each source document. The DLN is a 14-digit control number assigned to each source document. Batch source documents in batches of 50 and by DO code. Prepare adding machine tape in duplicate for each batch by adding each remittance. These tapes are used to balance the URF deposit. Follow the below procedures for IDRS input of URF items: CC FMADD: Use to request CC URADD format establishing accounts on unidentified remittance file. Key in CC FMADD. Terminal response will be CC URADD screen. Note: The IDRS terminal will keep a running total of remittances. Compare totals on adding machine tape with total on screen. If totals disagree, use CC URINQ to research each record to locate error. Accounting should be notified immediately whenever input errors are made. Input error corrections referenced in IRM 3.8.45.11.4 , Correcting Unidentified Input Errors, must be corrected the same day before overnight processing of Unidentified files to avoid a RACS out of balance condition with the URF File. When the Perfection function in Receipt and Control Operations adds the unidentified remittance to the URF, a three part notice (Notice 3731(CG)) can be generated to the taxpayer through IDRS if a name and address are available. However, permission to utilize the procedure to generate Notice 3731(CG) must be coordinated with the Local Accounting Unidentified Team before this option is used. If a name and address can be determined, the UR Notice Indicator in line 4 of CC URADD must be changed to a "Y" to generate the Notice 3731(CG). Note: Do not generate a Notice 3731(CG) for remittance received for Relief Procedures for Certain Former Citizens. Overlay the "N" in the UR Notice Indicator field with a "Y". The UR Notice Indicator field is in line 4 of CC URADD following the MMDDYYYY field. 1ST NAME LINE should be overlaid with first name line of the taxpayer. The first four positions identify the name control. Note: Use a comma in the first name line only when the order has been changed to create the correct name control, i.e., Carter Rvoc Tr., John. The length of 1st Name Line is limited to thirty-five (35) characters. The "N" should remain in the UR Notice Indicator field if a Name and Address cannot be determined. No Notice will be generated. Follow these procedures for CC URINQ input: (Used to verify remittance amount input to URF) Key in CC URINQ and press new line key three times. Key in unidentified control number in DLN format. Note: Each record within the file contains an unidentified remittance control number, amount, type of payment, status code, Notice 3731(C) indicator, name, address, TIN (if known), and all available payment and follow-up information. Line 4 indicates original remittance amount input. Prepare Form 813-A from adding machine tapes, prepare Form 784 and OTCnet 215-A Deposit Ticket. Send documents, Form 813-A, Form 784, OTCnet 215-A Deposit Ticket and second copy of encoding tapes to Accounting. Deposit the check on the same day as the CC URINQ input. When URF register is received on the following day, verify totals, and prepare the Accounting package. Refer to (10) above.

# Correcting Unidentified Input Errors

3.8.45.11.4 (04-01-2016) Correcting Unidentified Input Errors Many input errors are correctable. Requests to correct a Command Code URADD Unidentified input error should be coordinated with the Unidentified Team in Accounting, as Accounting is responsible for the integrity of the Unidentified database. Sensitive Command Codes URAPL, URENT and UROUT should not be used to correct the Unidentified Database by Receipt and Control Remittance Perfection Technicians, employees assigned to 809 Receipt Books or any employee that processes payments. IDRS Restrictions (RSTRK with definer "R" or "U") should be placed on Receipt and Control employees that process payments which will prevent use of these sensitive command codes. When input errors are detected, the Accounting Unidentified Team should be immediately contacted to allow Accounting to correct the error on the same day it is made. The correction request must be made on the same day the error is made to avoid out of balance issues for the Accounting Unidentified Team. Coordinate with the Accounting Unidentified Team to establish the latest timeframe a correction request should be routed to Accounting. Procedures for correcting the money amount are as follows: Key in CC FMAPL. Terminal response will be CC URAPL screen. Overlay CC URAPL with CC UROUT. Line 2: Key in Z or V over A; Z is to correct a money amount and V is to void the account. Line 3: Key in name control. Line 4: Key in correct money amount. Used only for a Z correction. Line 9: For Z correction, key in ENTERED IN ERROR. For V correction, key in ESTABLISHED IN ERROR. Follow these procedures to correct name: Key in CC URENT and press new line key. Key in name control on UR record and press new line key. Key in UR control number and press new line key. Key in name line. When all URF items are input, compare terminal totals with the adding machine tape totals. If totals balance, detach remittances from each source document. Keep in same sequence order as numbered documents. Forward source documents, remittances, and adding machine tape to Manual Deposit for further processing. If totals do not balance, verify remittance amount with the input terminal amount and make necessary corrections on the same day. Corrections that were made on terminal require adjustment on URF computer printout, which will be received the following day.

# Miscellaneous Input

3.8.45.11.5 (01-01-2011) Miscellaneous Input Miscellaneous IDRS uses include IDRS Remittance Processing, Address Changes and Levy Source input.

# Address Changes

3.8.45.11.6 (01-01-2011) Address Changes Route address changes to Entity.

# Levy Source Input

3.8.45.11.7 (01-01-2011) Levy Source Input If remittance is processed through ISRP you do not need to input the levy source. The bank trans data is captured through ISRP and downloads into the Taxpayer Delinquent Account (TDA) to the Levy Source File. If remittance is processed through IDRS or Manual Deposit, follow the following procedures: CC LEVYS: Used to input bank(s) name and address from remittances. If current payment has been applied on CP 504 notice and balance is more than authorized dollar tolerances, input of levy source is required. Using information on the notice input CC TXMODA, refer to IRM 2.3.11, Command Code TXMOD, for input instructions. Do not input a levy source from a personal check to a business account, unless business is a sole-proprietor and the name on the check matches the business entity. Do not input a levy source from a business or corporate check to a personal account. If the account is in the proper status code overlay CC TXMODA with CC LEVYS, refer to IRM 2.4.31-1, CC LEVYS, for input instructions. Note: If nine levy sources exist, replace Employment Commission (EC) source using information from remittance. Review screen(s) for a levy which may already be present for bank. If so, no action is necessary. If levy hasn't been established, overlay CC LEVYS with CC LEVYE, refer to IRM Exhibit 2.4.31-2, CC LEVYE, for input instructions.

# STAUP for Foreign Remittances

3.8.45.11.8 (11-01-2019) STAUP for Foreign Remittances Input of CC STAUP with Definer "S" is required on all taxpayer accounts with a balance due, when payments are received with a foreign remittance that will be deposited with Bank Of America. Use of the IAT Tool and the Quick Command Code (CC) feature is the preferred method of inputting the STAUP with Definer "S". The Status Code will generate systemically when using the IAT Tool Quick CC feature. Foreign deposit processing is the only payment processing activity that needs STAUP on an account. Refer to IRM 2.4.28, Command Codes STAUP, STATI and STATB. Restrictions on Remittance Perfection Technician's IDRS profiles, will prevent them from inputting Command Code STAUP. STAUP input must be a separate duty from payment processing, therefore STAUP must be completed by employees other than Remittance Perfection Technicians or employees that handle checks during deposit processing. The Accounting Hard Core Payment Tracer function has agreed to perform the input of the STAUP. Prepare a spreadsheet with the information needed to complete the STAUP for each foreign payment and route to the Hard Core Payment Tracer Team in Accounting. Copies of the STAUP action should be printed by the Hard Core Payment Tracer Team as described in IRM 3.8.45.11.8 , STAUP for Foreign Remittances, below and routed back to the Receipt and Control function that performs the foreign deposit process along with a copy of the spreadsheet to be placed with the case file. Input of CC STAUP causes a history item to be generated in the Action History Section of the tax module. The history item contains the current date, the terminal operator employee number, the Action History Source Code, and the activity code "STAUP nnnn" (nnnn = the status requested plus the number of cycles delay, if present, requested by the terminal operator). Information needed to complete the STAUP are the TIN, MFT, Tax Period, Status Code and number of cycles delayed. See IRM 2.4.28.6, CC STAUP "S" Definer - Terminal Input, and the Job Aid on the following SERP website: SERP - STAUP, for input guidance. Foreign Remittances should be delayed for 8 cycles. Receipt and Control will update the spreadsheet with the TIN, MFT and Tax Period information. The Hard Core Payment Tracer will have to determine the Status Code to use and update the spreadsheet. Use of the IAT Tool and the Quick CC feature is the preferred method of inputting the STAUP with Definer "S". The Status Code will generate systemically when using the IAT Tool Quick CC feature. See IRM 2.4.28.7.2CC STAUP IMF, BMF, IRAF Status Update Request, for information on Status Codes. Print a copy of the STAUP output screen or TXMOD screen to keep with the case file. If there was a balance due and a STAUP was able to be completed, the IDRS print of the taxpayer's account should show a status code of 48. If the account is not in balance due status or was not previously in a balance due status, a STAUP cannot be placed on a taxpayer's account. Print out a copy of the TXMOD which shows there is no balance due to keep with the case file. Accounting must route or scan/e-mail the copies of the STAUP output screen or TXMOD screen in the order they appear on the spreadsheet to Receipt and Control to associate with their case files. If an error code is encountered, see IRM 2.4.89.9, CC STAUP, STATI, STATB, Error Codes, to determine corrective action. Note: Attempts should not be made to place a STAUP on current year 1040ES payments or Unidentified payments as they will not have a balance due.

# Treasury Bonds

3.8.45.12 (11-19-2013) Treasury Bonds Treasury Bonds are redeemed, at face value, upon owner's death. Proceeds of redemption are applied to estate taxes. If original Treasury Bond is received, transship to: Bureau of the Fiscal Service Division of Security Accounts and Definitive Accounts Section 300 13th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20239 On a daily basis, the Division of Securities Operations of the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (formerly Bureau of Public Debt (BPD)) will request Philadelphia Regional Financial Office to issue U.S. Treasury checks payable to "Director of Internal Revenue Service for the Benefit of Estate" for each Campus responsible for the estate. Also look for "FEAT PAYMENT" . Form 1782-PD, Application for Redemption, will be faxed to each Campus approximately seven days before Treasury Check arrives. It will contain the following information: Name of decedent Decedent's TIN Date of decedents death Tax due date Redemption date Amounts Use faxed copy of Form 1782 as a source document. Use TC 678 credit, and received date stamped in upper left corner of faxed copy of Form 1782 as transaction date. Process through ISRP. Use these procedures to research IDRS for account. If not found, use IDRS to establish account. If no address is available, use Campuses address to establish entity.

# Military Payments

3.8.45.13 (01-01-2011) Military Payments The Manual Deposit Function will send Military Payments including the Form 214-DD and/or Form 3108 by UPS to: Internal Revenue Service Benefits and Service Team M/S 239 310 Lowell Street Andover, MA 01810

# Processing Refund Anticipated Loans Checks

3.8.45.14 (11-30-2021) Processing Refund Anticipated Loans Checks When a refund anticipated loan check is intercepted and returned by the bank, process the payment using a Form 3245posting voucher, Refund Cancellation or Repayment. Post the payment with a TC 720 which will freeze the money from refunding or offsetting. Whenever a taxpayer returns a Refund Anticipated Loan check with correspondence indicating that ID theft may be involved, (typically in these cases, the taxpayer will claim they were not entitled to the refund) or if an Integrity and Verification Operation (IVO) (formerly AMTAP) issued letter (i.e., Letter 4115-C or Letter 4464-C) is attached, route the check and correspondence to the following address on Form 3210. Internal Revenue Service Attn:RIVO External Leads Manager PO Box 219981 Kansas City, MO 64121

# External Leads Program (ELP) Processing (Identity Theft or Fraudulent Activity)

3.8.45.14.1 (12-12-2024) External Leads Program (ELP) Processing (Identity Theft or Fraudulent Activity) Return Integrity Verification Operation (RIVO) (formerly Accounts Management Taxpayer Assurance Program (AMTAP)) receives leads from financial institutions as well as internal leads from business units throughout the IRS. External Leads involve questionable federal tax refunds from financial institutions and various other sources that could be from Identity theft or fraudulent activities. External leads may involve Treasury checks, direct deposit/ACH, third-party checks, personal checks/ Money orders, refund anticipation loans or checks and pre-paid debit cards. Send all debit cards, treasury checks, and third-party checks to RIVO for processing at: Internal Revenue Service Attn: RIVO External Leads Manager M/S 7777333 W Pershing Road Kansas City, MO 64108 There are two ways the IRS receives refund repayments for external leads. Paper Check Deposit Processing (Deposited by Kansas City Manual Deposit) Electronic Processing via the Transaction Reporting System (TRS) Credit Gateway The External Leads Program processes returned refunds identified as potentially fraudulent. RIVO (formerly AMTAP) completes the research to identify impacted taxpayers. RIVO will then coordinate with accounting to systemically credit the taxpayer's account using IDRS Command Code ELP45. Manual Deposit will complete deposit of paper checks received according to the instructions in IRM 3.8.45.14.1.1, External Leads Program (ELP) Paper Check Deposit Processing (Kansas City Only), below.

# External Leads Program (ELP) Paper Check Deposit Processing (Kansas City Only)

3.8.45.14.1.1 (12-12-2024) External Leads Program (ELP) Paper Check Deposit Processing (Kansas City Only) Kansas City Campus will receive a Bank/Cashier's Check and spreadsheet from a bank with taxpayer information concerning Refund Repayment funds being returned to the IRS. The check and spreadsheet will be received from the bank addressed to the following address: Internal Revenue Service Attn: RIVO External Leads Manager M/S 7777 333 W Pershing Road Kansas City, MO 64108 Note: All treasury checks and third-party checks and correspondence received with them should be sent to RIVO for processing. No ELP deposit will be created for treasury checks and third-party checks. All check(s), check stubs, and spreadsheets with other documents received at Kansas City PO Box 219981 will be routed to the administrative mail room. Manual deposit will be notified, and will extract and hand carry ELP payments to manual deposit for processing. The checks may need to be reviewed by RIVO prior to creating the ELP deposit ticket if there is no "Lead number" identified on the check or other documents. Checks may also be received directly from RIVO with the Form 3210 for ELP deposit. These checks could be personal checks, cashier's checks, or money orders. The lead number assigned is date in (MMDDYY) format and number (i.e., 121820 01 or 121820 89 99). When creating the ELP deposit ticket, consider the following: Checks from the same bank with the same lead number can be made into one ELP deposit ticket. A separate ELP Deposit ticket should be created for checks with different lead numbers. A separate ELP Deposit ticket should be created for checks received from different banks as they will NOT have the same lead number(i.e. chase Bank, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, etc.). If there is no lead number but the check is addressed to RIVO, an ELP deposit ticket can be made, or you can ask RIVO to review the documents. For RIVO's review, Manual Deposit will upload the scanned copies of the check(s) and spreadsheet, or other documentation (correspondence, check stub, mail slip, etc.), to the RIVO (formerly AMTAP) shared drive folder. The check should be deposited through Manual Deposit and placed into the 4971 account. When preparing the OTCnet Deposit Ticket, Box 6 should contain "ELP" (External Leads Program (ELP)) to identify and alert Accounting that the deposit ticket amount should be journaled to the 4971 account. Box 9 on the Deposit Ticket should contain the Treasury Account Symbols 20X0903. Note: Effective July 15, 2013, the Trace ID number must have a "12" as the System ID. Coordinate with the Planning and Analysis BBTS Coordinator to initiate a BEARS request at: Log in to BEARS request to modify user profiles with permission to generate Trace ID numbers with System ID "12". Manual Deposit will scan copies of the check(s), spreadsheet if received (or all documents received with the check), prepare the OTCnet deposit ticket and scan a copy, complete and scan Form 3460 (Transmittal Memo Accounting Control Documents) and encoding tape and scan. Manual Deposit will upload with the Accounting package to the CFO Accounting Shared drive which includes the OTCnet Deposit Ticket, scanned copy of the check, the spreadsheet (or all documents received with the check), Form 3460 and encoding tape to RACS. If a spreadsheet was not received from the bank, do not hold up the deposit. Indicate on the Form 3460 that a spreadsheet was not received. Manual Deposit will upload scanned copies of the OTCnet Deposit Ticket including page 2 showing the Trace ID #, check and spreadsheet, or other documentation (correspondence, check stub mail slip etc.), to RIVO (formerly AMTAP) shared drive folder ELP DT's on Form 3460. Notate on the 3460 if a spreadsheet was not received from the bank. Manual Deposit will retain scanned copies of the OTCnet Deposit Ticket, check and spreadsheet (or all documents received with the check) in Receipt and Control according to Manual Deposit retention guidelines (One year following the current processing year). Beginning January 1, 2018, do not complete instructions (8) through (11) below for IMF. However, continue to process BMF using manual procedures. RIVO no longer forwards Form 3245 to Manual Deposit for DLN generation and preparation of Form 813 for IMF. RIVO uses the new IDRS command code ELP45 to systemically process the IMF taxpayer payments. After RIVO (formerly AMTAP) has completed needed research of the taxpayer information, they will e-mail Forms 3245 (BMF only) to Manual Deposit for DLN numbering and preparation of Form 813. Manual Deposit will obtain DLN from Off-Line BBTS DLN Generation, with Doc Code 45 and Blocking Series 200 – 299. Use the Julian Date of the Deposit Ticket in the DLN. Stamp the DLN on Form 3245. Manual Deposit will Prepare Form 813. Ensure the Trace ID Number from the original OTCnet Deposit Ticket has been stamped on the Form 3245 and entered on Form 813. Although the last six digits of the 20-digit Trace ID Number were not generated during the original Deposit process, the last six digits (positions 15 through 20) of the Trace ID Number will have to be assigned to each 3245 and on the corresponding 813, to allow input of the Trace ID Number during processing of the 3245's in the ISRP System by Data Conversion. Manual Deposit will scan and upload Forms 3245 and 813 to Accounting shared drive.

# ELP Electronic Processing via the Transaction Reporting System (TRS) Credit Gateway (Kansas City Only)

3.8.45.14.1.2 (11-30-2021) ELP Electronic Processing via the Transaction Reporting System (TRS) Credit Gateway (Kansas City Only) IRS will receive these returned refunds electronically from Banks using the Transaction Reporting System (TRS).R IVO (formerly AMTAP) will research all payments and prepare Form 3245 for each taxpayer they can identify. For the remaining taxpayers they cannot identify, RIVO (formerly AMTAP) will prepare a Documentation Letter needed for Accounting and Manual Deposit balancing and accountability purposes. Receipt and Control Manual Deposit Function will only have responsibilities for DLN generation, numbering of Form 3245, preparation of the Form 813 and stamping of the Trace ID Number on each Form 3245. Note: Beginning January 2, 2018, Input external leads cases (TC 720) via IDRS using command code ELP45 for IMF taxpayers. BMF still requires manual processing. Manual Deposit will receive from Accounting a copy of the Deposit Ticket which will include the Trace ID Number using a System ID Code of (12). Manual Deposit will receive from RIVO (formerly AMTAP) the following items which should be listed on Form 3210: Copy of the Deposit Ticket. Form 3245 for each taxpayer account. Listing of taxpayer information associated with the Forms 3245. An adding machine tape may be attached. IVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter with Deposit Ticket number and checklist of steps taken to identify items remaining in the 4971 Account. If the Forms 3245 add up to the total of the deposit Ticket, an RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter will not be sent by RIVO (formerly AMTAP). Note: If a Deposit Ticket has a large volume, RIVO (formerly AMTAP) may send only part of the Forms 3245 associated with the Deposit Ticket. When that occurs the Forms 3245 should be accompanied by the pages of the listing with the appropriate taxpayer information. Ensure the total of the listings balance back to the total of the Forms 813 prepared. For the Forms 3245 that are sent in smaller batches, the RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter will be submitted with the final batch associated with the Deposit Ticket. If the Forms 3245 in the smaller batches all add up to the Deposit Ticket an RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter is not needed, and therefore will NOT be submitted with the final batch associated with the Deposit Ticket. If the documentation received does not balance or the Forms 3245 do not match the listing, return the package or contact RIVO (formerly AMTAP) for correction . Manual Deposit instructions for processing Form 3245 are as follows: Obtain DLN from Off-Line BBTS DLN Generation, with Doc Code 45 and Blocking Series 200 – 299. Use the Julian Date of the Deposit Ticket in the DLN. Stamp the DLN on Form 3245. Note: Because of the volume that may be received and the limited number of DLN's that can be assigned through BBTS, please ensure that all blocks utilize the maximum number of 100 documents to a DLN. Each File Location Code used during Off-Line DLN Generation has 10,000 count that can be used (Blocking 200-299). Prepare Form 813. Ensure the total of the Forms 813 balance back to the Deposit Ticket. Whenever an RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter is received with the copy of the Deposit Ticket, taxpayer information listing and Forms 3245, ensure the total of the Forms 813 and the total listed on the RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter, balance back to the Deposit Ticket. If the Forms 3245 are received in small batches, ensure the Forms 813 balance back to the associated listings received with the Forms 3245. Ensure the Trace ID Number from the TRS Deposit Ticket has been stamped on the Form 3245 and entered on the corresponding Form 813. The TRS Deposit Ticket will only show the first 14-digits of the Trace ID Number. The last six digits (positions 15 through 20) of the Trace ID Number will have to be assigned to each Form 3245 and listed on the corresponding Form 813. When the Forms 3245 are received separately in smaller batches but still associated with on Deposit Ticket, keep track of the Trace ID Numbers already assigned to ensure that the Trace ID Numbers do not duplicate. Route copy of the Deposit Ticket, Forms 813, numbered Forms 3245, taxpayer information listings and the RIVO (formerly AMTAP) Documentation Letter (if provided) to Accounting. Each Form 813, associated Forms 3245 and documentation should be placed in a separate brown folder. Use OFP Code 170-92500 to record hours and count when numbering Forms 3245, preparing Form 813 and stamping the Trace ID Number on the Form 3245.

# Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS) (Formerly Bureau of Public Debt (BPD)

3.8.45.15 (05-11-2023) Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS) (Formerly Bureau of Public Debt (BPD) Checks received at the Campuses for the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS) (formerly the Bureau of Public Debt (BPD)) will be processed following the procedures below. Sort BPD or BFS checks by State. Prepare adding machine tape of remittances by State. Encode checks with BPD endorsement. Total State amount(s) separately and grand total tape. Identify each State on encoder tape. Prepare Form 1963, Form 784 and OTCnet 215A Deposit Ticket. All Campuses will send information on taxpayers who contribute to the Bureau of Public Debt (it is now known as the Bureau of the Fiscal Service), specifically the name, address and amount of the check, to the following address: ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡

# Foreign Check Remittances

3.8.45.16 (07-28-2025) Foreign Check Remittances Remittances drawn on foreign banks payable in U.S. Dollars through U.S. banks should have the U.S. bank's routing symbol printed in MICR ink in the lower left corner of the check and have a nine-digit routing number. Process with regular deposit. If the routing symbol is missing, process manually per IRM 3.8.45.2.10, Deposit Items Not Processed Through ISRP. Note: If the Bank routing symbol and the nine-digit routing number are missing from the check, but the routing symbol and routing number are written on the check or provided, the MICR routing information can be printed on the check and processed with the regular deposit. Note: Postal money orders received from the following countries can be processed domestically through the regular deposit with a routing number of 000008002. Antigua and Barbuda Japan Bahamas Montserrat Barbados Peru Belize St. Kitts British Virgin Islands St. Lucia Dominica (Windward Islands) "Advice and Pay to" Copies St. Vincent Remittances drawn on Leumi Bank in Israel should be sent back to the taxpayer with Letter 4480 with an explanation that Leumi Bank no longer supports presentments for payment. If the remittance is sent back to a PO BOX number, it should be sent using registered mail. All foreign checks drawn on Italian banks will no longer be accepted and processed by Fiscal Service's TGA bank, Bank of America. If Bank of America receives an Italian foreign check, it will be returned to the depositing agency. Additionally, Italy's foreign tradeable currency will be removed from the drop-down option in OTCnet Deposit Processing on February 09, 2024. The Trace ID number for remittances drawn on foreign banks will be manually generated from BBTS, using the Offline Trace ID Generation window in the Manual Deposit screen, for input to OTCnet. After the bank has performed the cash conversion and the payment posting voucher information is input to BBTS, another Trace ID number will be automatically generated. Create a new Form 813 with the automatically generated Trace ID number. The six digit sequence number of the entire 20 digit Trace ID Number on the payment posting vouchers and Form 813 /Form 813-A will not need to change. Note: Campuses may choose to use an electronic version of Form 813/Form 813-A instead of generating from BBTS. Coordination with Accounting will be needed to ensure the Form 813 is routed to Data Conversion for processing to establish the DLN on the Service Center Control File (SCCF). Hold a photocopy of the check (front only), copy of the OTCnet 215-A Deposit Ticket and the payment posting voucher, in a suspense file until the deposit is confirmed by the bank. Monitor OTCnet to determine when the deposit is confirmed. The confirmed Deposit Ticket will show the actual date of deposit to the bank and the money conversion amount. When confirmed, pull up the Deposit Ticket in OTCnet, and change Block 2 of the Deposit Ticket to correct the voucher date to the confirmation date. Immediately upload the completed and corrected Deposit Ticket to the RACS shared drive as part of the Accounting Package. The following items must remain or be added to the Suspense File for retention: File copy of Form 813-A and Form 813 Part 3 of Form 784 IRS copy of OTCnet 215A Deposit Ticket Photocopy front of check Payment Posting Voucher or document used in lieu of Payment Posting Voucher (photocopy of first page of return, IDRS print, etc.) Copy of IDRS STAUP screen printout, or STAUP Error Message received if account is not in balance due status. Note: Retain Suspense File package in a locked cabinet for three years following the current processing year. A log or database must be maintained for all foreign remittances deposited with Bank of America. The log or database should contain the following information: Deposit Ticket Number Deposit Amount Original IRS Received Date. If a foreign payment is received from the Lockbox Bank transshipment, and the document that is used as the payment posting voucher does not have a received date, then coordinate with the unit from which the payment and source document are received to ensure that the documents are stamped with the Lockbox received date. The payment posting document should be stamped with the campus date stamp using the Lockbox received date; edit "LB" beside the campus name Date received at the campus if received from another IRS Office. Coordinate with the Receipt and Control area responsible for routing to the Foreign Deposit Desk any Foreign Remits received from other IRS Offices or Lockbox Banks, to ensure the official Submission Processing campus received date stamp is used to stamp the campus received date on documentation. Circle out the Submission Processing campus received date in red to ensure the original IRS Received Date is used for processing the payment Deposit Date Confirmed Date or Rejected Date in OTCnet. If Rejected, document that it was Rejected and also update the Reject Log with required information explaining what action was taken (i.e., payment returned to taxpayer on certain date or payment redeposited under Deposit Ticket number ??????? on certain date). See IRM 3.8.45.16.3, Unprocessable Foreign Checks Date and explanation of any follow up action with Bank of America Note: If the confirmed OTCnet Deposit Ticket, has not been received within one (1) week from the date in box 2 for "Cash Letter" items or six (6) weeks for "Collection" items, contact ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡, or via e-mail contact at dedicatedservice101@bankofamerica.com, to inquire on the status.

Contact the Headquarters Manual Deposit Analyst if confirmation has not been received within 30 days for "Cash Letter" items, or 60 days for "Collection" items. A query of OTCnet "Submitted" Deposit Status items using a date range from the current date to at least 6 months prior to the current date should be completed every month to identify any "Submitted" deposits that have not been either "Confirmed" or "Rejected" by Bank of America. Also at the end of the calendar year, a query of submitted items for the entire year (January 1st through December 31st) should be completed to ensure nothing was missed. The log or information in the database should be maintained for three years following the current processing year. If no source document is received and research cannot determine taxpayer posting information, refer to unidentified remittances in IRM 3.8.45.11.3, Unidentified Remittances.

# Foreign Currency Remittances

3.8.45.16.2 (08-10-2023) Foreign Currency Remittances When foreign currency is received in the mail it must be converted to U.S. dollars. IRS employees in field offices do not accept foreign currency. Note: These procedures are for foreign currency only, not coins, which are considered of too insignificant in value to convert and ship back to the issuing country. Only one type of foreign currency may be included in the same deposit ticket. To determine the conversion rate, log on to OTCnet, select the type of foreign currency that is being converted, and input the currency amount. The U. S. Equivalent (USE) will be quoted. The USE is the amount input as the OTCnet voucher amount. Since the conversion rate is determined by Bank of America and must balance to the OTCnet deposit, use the Bank confirmed date as the conversion date. When creating the Deposit Ticket in OTCnet, be sure to select Foreign Currency Cash and ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ as the bank. Refer to the OTCnet guidelines for specific instructions. Note: Please be advised that Bank of America will continue to accept foreign currency. Effective immediately (May 2022), in order to prepare a foreign currency deposit you will need to contact the Customer Support team at 866-945-7920. Customer service will provide the OTCnet account information to setup in your agency endpoint prior to making a foreign currency deposit. In addition, the current Bank of America DDA (Demand Deposit Account) for foreign currency is no longer available for use and will be removed from OTCnet. For questions regarding foreign currency deposits, please contact TGA Support at 866.771.1842 or STLS.TGA.Support@stls.frb.org. If the USE is $5,000 U.S. dollars or less, send the currency by "Certified" mail to the following address: Bank of America GBN-LA Mail code: CA9-924-01-11 2706 Media Center Drive Los Angeles, CA 90065-1733 If the USE is greater than $5000, call the Bank of America banknote trading desk at 800-387-1012, who will arrange for an armored courier pickup of the currency, for delivery to: Bank of America NA Mail code: CA9-708-L3-13 1200 West 7th Street, Level 3 Los Angeles, CA 90017–2349 When the funds are received in Los Angeles, the Banks Foreign Currency Services (FCS) Department will credit the funds to the OTCnet bank account.

# Unprocessable Foreign Checks

3.8.45.16.3 (02-20-2024) Unprocessable Foreign Checks Foreign checks that cannot be processed by Bank of America for various reasons will be returned to the Campuses. Bank of America will use a form letter to return these payments and will place a check mark or "X" beside the reason why the check(s) could not be processed. The OTCnet remarks section will also show the reason the check was rejected. A debit voucher will not accompany these checks. Note: If the unprocessable condition can be identified by the campus prior to deposit, use the letters referenced in IRM 3.8.45.16.3, Unprocessable Foreign Checks, to resolve the unprocessable condition before being sent to Bank of America. If the check was returned for the following reasons, use Letter 4480 to return the check to the taxpayer and request a replacement check: Postdated checks. Stale dated checks (checks more than 6 Months old are considered stale dated by Bank of America). Checks that are not signed. Checks where the currency amount has been altered. Checks on which the words and numerical amount on the check differs. Checks where it is not clear what Country the drawee bank is located. Checks previously dishonored or so marked on their face. Traveler's checks. If the check was returned because the check is not dated, enter the original received date on the check and redeposit it. If the check was returned for the following reasons, correct the error or problem, prepare a new deposit ticket and redeposit the payment. Foreign and U.S. currencies cannot be on the same deposit ticket. The amount of check(s) received differs from the amount listed on the deposit ticket. An invalid agency location code is shown on the deposit ticket. If a check is received back with the remarks "A. Amount is less than minimum - fees will likely exceed USD value of the check" and an explanation of ."A. MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE AMOUNT SHOULD BE $200.00/USD OR ITS EQUIVALENT", redeposit the check. If it comes back a second time, contact your HQ Analyst to discuss course of action. A Rejected Foreign Check case file of all Rejected Items received back from Bank of America must be maintained and contain the following: Copy of the printed OTCnet Rejected Voucher. Copy of the rejected check (front and back). The form letter or OTCnet Rejected printout received from Bank of America listing the reason the check was rejected. Documentation showing IRS action. (Re-deposited or returned to taxpayer). This can be noted on the form letter. Copy of new Deposit Ticket if re-deposited. The Rejected Foreign Case File and Log should be maintained for three (3) years following the current processing year. Remittances drawn on Leumi Bank in Israel should be sent back to the taxpayer with Letter 4480C with an explanation that Leumi Bank no longer supports presentments for payment. If the remittance is sent back to a PO BOX number, it should be sent using registered mail. A Rejected Foreign Check log with a record of all Rejected Items received back from Bank of America must be maintained and include the following: Original Deposit Ticket Number Original Deposit Date Rejected Date Bank of America reason for rejecting Action taken (Re-deposited or returned to taxpayer) with brief explanation of corrective action or why the check was returned to taxpayer Re-deposit Date or Date the check with a letter was returned to the taxpayer Deposit Ticket Number of Re-deposit Confirmed Date if Re-deposited Follow up action with Bank of America of unconfirmed re-deposits The Rejected Foreign Case File and Log should be maintained for three (3) years following the current processing year. A monthly printout of Rejected Items must be pulled from OTCnet to verify all rejected items are being documented in the Rejected Foreign Check case file and log. Instructions for pulling the OTCnet Rejected Items are as follows: In the OTCnet main Online Application page select the "Deposit Processing" tab, then select "Search Deposits" The "Search Conditions" option in the "Search Deposit" Screen should be entered as follows: Search Conditions Action OTC Endpoint Enter the appropriate Campus Deposit Status The "Rejected" option should be selected in the drop-down menu Deposit Type The "Foreign Currency Check" option should be selected in the drop down menu Voucher Date From Enter the first day of the month Voucher Date To Enter the last day of the month In the "DDA" box of the Financial Institution Section Enter the DDA Number of Bank of America Select "Search" at the bottom of the screen. Print the screen showing the listing of rejected Items and verify that all rejected items are listed in the log and a file is accounted for Select the Voucher Number for each of the rejected items and print out each voucher to keep with the documentation file for each rejected Item If a Debit Voucher is received from the bank, make a copy and immediately route to the local Accounting function. If a rejected foreign deposit is not received back with a reject letter or the reject letter is received without the rejected check, research OTCnet to ensure the deposit ticket is in "Reject" status. Contact Bank of America (BOA) to confirm they have returned the rejected check with the reject letter. If BOA confirms they have returned the rejected check, research IDRS to see if the amount of the check has posted to the taxpayer's account, which means the check was probably routed to ISRP and re-deposited. This could have happened especially if BOA returned the check with a reason that it was a domestic check. If the payment was redeposited, document the Reject Log to explain that the check was re-deposited listing the new deposit ticket number and date of deposit.

# Mutilated Currency Handling

3.8.45.25.1 (08-15-2022) Mutilated Currency Handling Financial institutions may refuse to accept currency if it is in any of the following conditions: One-half or less of the original note remains. The conditions of the note is such that it's value is questionable, and the currency must be forwarded to the Department of the Treasury for the examination by trained experts before any redemption is made. Note: Mutilated currency does not include currency that is unfit for further circulation because of its physical condition such as torn, dirty, limp, worn or defaced ("unfit currency"). Unfit currency may be unfit for further circulation, but it can still be exchanged at commercial banks. Therefore, the IRS should accept unfit currency for deposit into a Treasury account. If a taxpayer attempts to send IRS mutilated currency, the currency may be returned to the taxpayer with instructions to follow the process for redeeming mutilated currency at face value with Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP). As provided by 31 C.F.R. 100.7 Treasury's redemption process and 31 C.F.R. 100.8 Packaging and shipping of mutilated currency - Lawful holders of mutilated currency may receive a redemption at full value when: clearly more than 50% of a note is identifiable as United States currency is present along with sufficient remnants of any relevant security feature. Fifty percent 50% or less of a note identifiable as United States currency is present and the method of mutilation and supporting evidence demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Treasury that the missing portions have been totally destroyed. Return the mutilated currency to the taxpayer along with Letter 4480C "SP Deposit Reject Letter" , containing the following selectable paragraph and variable verbiage: B We cannot accept [01 39V] (Mutilated Currency) as a payment. *[00 385V ]variable paragraph with the following verbiage: Please refer to https://www.bep.gov/services/mutilated-currency-redemption, for instructions on returning mutilated currency to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and Packaging and Shipping of Mutilated Currency for redemption. Please make sure to send a completed BEP Form 5283 with your submission. All required fields MUST be completely filled out. G [02 385V] variable paragraph with the following verbiage: Failure to use and fully complete BEP Form 5283 will delay the processing of your submission. BEP Form 5283 can be found at the link provided above. IRS did not credit your tax account because we rejected your payment attempt with mutilated currency. Use the following procedures for packaging and shipping the mutilated currency to send back to the taxpayer: Regardless of the condition of the currency, do not disturb the fragments more than is absolutely necessary. If the currency is brittle or inclined to fall apart, pack it carefully in cotton and box it as found, without disturbing the fragments, if possible. If the currency was in a purse, box, or other container when mutilated, it should be left therein, if possible, in order to prevent further deterioration of the fragments or from their being lost. If it is absolutely necessary to remove fragments from the container, send the container with the currency and any other contents found, except as noted in paragraph (g) below. If the currency was flat when mutilated, do not roll, fold ,laminate, tape, glue, or in any other way alter the currency in an attempt to preserve it. If the currency was in a roll when mutilated, do not attempt to unroll or straighten. If coin or any other metal is mixed with the currency, remove carefully. Do not send coin or other metal in the same package with mutilated paper currency, as the metal will break up the currency. When mutilated currency is discovered that is mutilated by actions taken by IRS processing, such as SCAMPS, IRS counsel strongly recommends that the IRS accepts the currency from a taxpayer that the IRS subsequently mutilates during processing. Crediting the taxpayer with the payment under these circumstances is consistent with the IRS's policy of crediting the taxpayer with a payment for the earliest date it is received by the IRS. The law requires that the IRS deposit the payment "as soon as practicable". Under circumstances where the currency is mutilated and cannot be accepted for deposit, this requirement would allow for the IRS to follow the steps set forth in the Title 31 regulation and on the Bureau of Engraving and Printing website to have the currency redeemed. Follow 31 C.F.R. 100.7, Treasury's Redemption Process and 31 C.F.R. 100.8, Packaging and shipping of mutilated currency, for sending the mutilated currency to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing for redemption. The Director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing shall have final authority with respect to redemptions of mutilated currency submissions. All submissions for review shall include an estimate of the value of the currency and an explanation of how it came to be mutilated. The submission should also contain the bank account number and routing number for an account of a United States bank. All redemptions of $500 or more shall be made through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). When preparing mutilated currency for shipment to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, follow the instructions in IRM 3.8.45.25.1, Mutilated Currency Handling, for shipping to the taxpayer. Submit each request for redemption of mutilated currency with a completed BEP Form 5283. All Mutilated currency submissions for possible redemption MUST be submitted using BEP Form 5283. All required fields MUST be completely filled out. If any of the required fields on BEP Form 5283 are incomplete, you will not be able to print the form. Failure to use and fully complete BEP Form 5283 will delay the processing of your submission. Send submission to: USPS Delivery: Department of the Treasury Bureau of Engraving and Printing MCD/OFM, Room 344A PO Box 37048 Washington, DC 20013. Non-Postal Delivery - UPS/FEDEX: Department of the Treasury Bureau of Engraving and Printing MCD/OFM, Room 344-A 14th & C Streets SW. Washington, DC 20228. Manual Deposit Manager must make a record or log of the steps followed during the redemption process to track the funds. This requirement is part of the IRS's legal obligation to keep accurate entries of public monies it receives. Retain the record or log for 3 years plus the current processing year.

# Contaminated Currency Handling

3.8.45.25.1.1 (08-15-2022) Contaminated Currency Handling Prepare contaminated currency deposits using the following step-by-step process. Deposits will be refused if these requirements are not met. Separate contaminated currency from normal deposits. If contaminated notes are old United States currencies or high denomination notes ($500's and above), they must be packaged separately. Contaminated currency must be prepared by denomination, in straps of 100 notes and in bundles of 10 straps. Rubber bands must be used to secure multiple full straps (100 notes of a single denomination) and, contrary to normal deposit procedures, should be securely placed around the middle of the bundle. Partial straps of 50 notes or less of a single denomination must be fanned in a way that allows for more than 50 percent of each note to be clearly visible through all of the packaging material. Staples should be used to secure the fan before the notes are placed into the bag. Partial straps containing between 51 and 99 noted of a single denomination must be wrapped with a paper band. The band must be marked with a piece count and dollar amount. Contaminated currency must be double-bagged, and bags must be large enough to permit movement of the currency inside the bag for initial visual inspection. Both bags must be clear, plastic and have tamper evident seals. The word "CONTAMINATED" must be written in permanent marker and large letters on the outside of the outer bag. Any exterior printing on the bags must not inhibit the view of the bagged contents. Do not include any extraneous items (paper clips, deposit documents, bag tags, dye pack mechanisms, etc.) inside or between the inner and outer bags. Staples used to secure fanned notes are allowable. The presence of extraneous items will result in your deposit being returned. Provide advance written notification to your local Federal Reserve Bank cash office by completing the Contaminated Currency Notification Form. When completing the form, be sure to provide as much information as possible regarding the type and extent of the contamination. Failure to provide this information will result in your deposit being returned. Complete a separate Federal Reserve Bank deposit document or electronic deposit notification form that includes the denominational breakdown and total of the contaminated currency. The deposit document should accompany the contaminated deposit. If proper advanced notification of a contaminated currency deposit does not occur, or if proper packaging requirements are not met, the Federal Reserve Banks reserve the right to return the deposit to the financial institution. For more information, contact FedCash Services at FedCash Services.

# Manual Deposit General

3.8.45.27 (11-13-2014) Manual Deposit General Manual Deposit has two primary functions. Anything that cannot be processed through ISRP should be sent to Manual Deposit. Preparation and deposit of items that ARE NOT processable through ISRP, such as unidentified deposits, SITLP, foreign remittances, Repayment of Informant Reward, redeposits, should be sent to Manual Deposit. Source documents must be sorted according to MFT or type of form. Non-ISRP Tax returns/documents and remittances processed through Manual Deposit are normally received from the Payment Perfection function. Returns/documents are tagged indicating the various sorts and types. Each batch consists of 100 or fewer payments. Note: Each payment must have a Trace ID number. See instructions in IRM 3.8.45.3.3 , Trace ID and Custodial Detail Data Base (CDDB). Information on Form 3539, Block Number Control Sheet, determines appropriate DLN to assign to blocks of payments. A BMF DLN Reference number is required to pull the correct BBTS off-line DLN. The BMF DLN Reference number must be created by the Campus Production Monitor if the appropriate DLN in not available on BBTS. The BBTS Administrative Job Aid (ELMS 19058) provides the guidelines for the Production monitor to accomplish this. Once the BMF DLN reference number is provided, Manual Deposit can create an offline DLN in BBTS. Note: For automated processing procedures refer to IRM 3.5.10, Batch/Block Tracking System (BBTS). The first and last number of each block must be stamped on Form 3539 if the number is not generated from BBTS. Always check block number in the ending column and use the next block number. Stamp the DLN in the Block DLN box on Form 813, Document Register. Detach remittances attached to tax return or document. Stamp the DLN on top portion of first remittance. Stamp the DLN on each document in the upper right hand corner. When serial number 50 is stamped on the tax returns or documents, also stamp corresponding remittance. Place both upside down in the block. If possible, do not place identical TINs and tax periods back to back in block of documents. Do not prepare blocks for more than $99,999,999.99.

# Balancing (Manual Deposit)

3.8.45.27.3 (01-01-2011) Balancing (Manual Deposit) To maintain the integrity of revenue receipt processing, one employee may perform two of three processes. The balancing function must be one of two processes. The three processes are Listing, Balancing and Recapitulation. Compare the totals on the document and remittance register (Form 813 and encode tape). Compare each entry of both registers against tax returns or documents to resolve out-of-balance blocks. (The correct remittance amount is the determining factor.) If the remittances were incorrectly encoded, use the following procedures to correct the encoding: Line through entry and enter corrected amount on tape. Tape over MICR amount on check and re-encode. Place check on top of block. If the tax return or document was incorrectly listed, re-input the correct amount. If the tax return or document was incorrectly coded or edited, use the following instructions to correct the tax return or document. Draw a green circle around the erroneous amount. Enter correct amount and green rocker near balance due line. Ensure the tax return or documents are blocked correctly by assigned DLN. Ensure all tax returns or documents are included in the block. Ensure all mis-blocked documents and accompanying remittances have been removed. When blocks are in balance, initial encoding tape and generate Form 813-A.

# Recapitulation

3.8.45.27.4 (01-01-2011) Recapitulation Sort blocks of documents and remittances by tax class. BBTS will generate Form 813-A, but the deposit ticket number will need to be written on the Form 813-A. List each block total of checks on Form 784, Recapitulation of Remittances, and enter grand total in Total Box. If not pre-printed, enter Campuses, name of director, name of bank, deposit date, and assigned deposit ticket number. Compare the totals shown on Form 813-A and Form 784. If equal, prepare deposit for release. If not equal, compare Form 784 and Form 813-A, item by item, and correct discrepancies. Make necessary corrections to documents, remittances, appropriate block, and/or recap listing. Final preparation for delivery to depositary. Enter generated (or manually adjusted) deposit tax class totals on one deposit ticket. Prepare separate deposit tickets for non-revenue receipts and courtesy deposits. The number of items to be included with a single deposit ticket will be limited only if the depositary requested a limit and it is defined in their present contract. If deposit ticket and Form 813-A totals balance, enter deposit ticket number in the box labeled "Deposit Ticket No." on the bottom right-hand corner of Form 813-A. See Exhibit 3.8.45-6.

# Form 8621-A, Return by a Shareholder Making Certain Late Elections to End Treatment as a Passive Foreign Investment Company (Ogden Only)

3.8.45.28.4.1 (12-13-2022) Form 8621-A, Return by a Shareholder Making Certain Late Elections to End Treatment as a Passive Foreign Investment Company (Ogden Only) Treasury Regulation (REG-133446-03, TD 9231 and TD 9232) provides an opportunity for U.S. taxpayers who are shareholders in Passive Foreign Investment Companies (PFICs) to make an election that will include a one-time payment to afford retroactive relief and prevent future tax liability. Taxpayers will file Form 8621-A to elect treatment under the new Treasury Regulation. Once the campus accepts the payment and Large Business and International (LB&I) reviews the request for retroactive relief, LB&I may have to notify the taxpayer of any additional amounts of interest due. PFIC payments are not a payment of tax and there is no associated DLN. Therefore, a unique PFIC number will be assigned.

All payments will be key verified by another operator and balanced daily. This work must be performed in the restricted area of Receipt and Control. Voluntary Disclosure payments must not be combined with other work. Deposit Timeliness. For payments processed through RS-PCC, the 24-hour deposit standard is met by scanning the paper check and submitting it for deposit no later than the first business day after the date of receipt of the check.

Record the penalty for business taxpayers to MFT 13. Post all individual MFT 55 penalties to tax year 2013. Post all business MFT 13 penalties to tax year 2013 unless taxpayer or Power of Attorney specifically requests penalties be applied to a different tax year. If you receive a remittance for the Voluntary Disclosure Practice, and there is no indication of where it should be applied, then research IDRS to determine if voluntary payments posted previously. If no indication, then apply to MFT 55, tax period 2013. If unable to determine the correct tax period, then include a comment on Form 14350. Print each completed Form 14350 and place its corresponding check on top of Form 14350. When you have recorded 25 checks on Form 14350, or if you are logging off your computer workstation for the day, then print the completed Form 14350. Count and run a calculator tape to ensure the volume of 25 checks and dollar amounts of those checks match the dollar total of completed Forms 14350. If the dollars and volume match, then the checks are balanced to the Form 14350. Keep the calculator tape associated with the checks. Route the batch of checks with completed Forms 14350 and calculator tape to the RS-PCC scanner operator as locally directed. Keep all documents of each taxpayer's case file tightly secured and on the work cart as locally directed by the supervisor. All case files must remain together in a central location until the end of day balancing is completed identifying the date the work was received, as directed by local management.

# Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP) RS-PCC Scanner Operator Role

3.8.45.32.2 (11-14-2018) Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP) RS-PCC Scanner Operator Role RS-PCC Scanner Operator Role. Voluntary Disclosure Practice payments received at Austin Submission Processing Center will be processed through RS-PCC. Refer to IRM 3.17.278, Paper Check Conversion (PCC) and Remittance Strategy Paper Check Conversion (RS-PCC) Systems. Complete a RPSID sheet and place it atop the batch folder, as directed by local management. The RS-PCC Operator is responsible for taking steps to deposit checks as follows: Start Payment Block Processing. The operator completes the beginning of day procedures and is ready to input the block. The system has generated CC STBLK with the BEG SEQ information (example - 0562900Z49000). The format of the BEG SEQ is the following: Format Position Format Position Description Positions 1-3 (example 056) Julian entered during the opening process Positions 4-10 (example 2900Z49) Identifies the operator's computer system Positions 11-13 (example 000) represents the beginning sequence number Note: The system will display today's date with the Julian date along with the deposit date. Record the Block Header Information. Enter the block information on CC STBLK indicating the unit count and total dollar amount of the units. Scan payment checks. Populate all the fields identified with an asterisk (*) next to the field name, after each check is successfully scanned. Compare the Form 14350 total(s) to the batch list on RS-PCC to ensure all checks have been processed. Edit when necessary before sending the batch for RS-PCC key verification. Do not transmit payments before key verification. Scanned checks must have "Electronically Presented" printed on them. The scanner equipment does this automatically. If the scanner is out of ink, or otherwise malfunctions, you must ensure scanned checks are stamped "Electronically Presented". Transmit check information to the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service (formerly the Financial Management Service (FMS)) via the RS-PCC System. Retrieve the deposit ticket information from the Electronic Verification and Imaging System (ELVIS) each day for the prior day's scanned checks. Balance the End of Day report to the ELVIS (215 report). Retain franked checks on file for at least 2 months. Managers can authorize shredding of a batch of checks if the checks have been retained for at least 2 months AND the corresponding deposit ticket no longer appears on the Reconciliation Report (Deposit Ticket Summary). See IRM 3.8.45.2.6, Campus Responsibilities During Bidding Process for Selection of Depository Bank, for detailed shredding instructions. Place the completed Forms 14350 with the corresponding case file for routing to WIIC PSP Austin Unit in LB&I.

# Voluntary Disclosure RS-PCC Key Verification

3.8.45.32.3 (11-14-2018) Voluntary Disclosure RS-PCC Key Verification After successfully scanning the checks, the key verification must be completed by a different employee (not the same employee that scanned the payments into a batch). Key verification is the last step before the payment is transmitted to the Bureau of Fiscal Service. Key verification is reviewing the same information recorded during payment entry to ensure it is correct. If there are inconsistencies, then review the source document and correspondence to ensure the dollar amount(s) are correct.

# RS-PCC Daily Balancing for Voluntary Disclosure Payments

3.8.45.32.4 (11-14-2018) RS-PCC Daily Balancing for Voluntary Disclosure Payments All scanned work MUST be balanced daily. The Manager/Lead or other authorized designee must balance the previous day's work using the 215 Deposit Ticket, the Batch Listing from the scanned work, and the RS-PCC End of Day Report. Refer to IRM 3.17.278.11.16, RS-PCC Balancing, IRM Exhibit 3.17.278-10, OTCnet ELVIS 215 Report, IRM Exhibit 3.17.278-8, RS-PCC Batch Listing, and IRM Exhibit 3.17.278-7RS-PCC End of Day Report. Take the following steps: Step Action 1 Order the RS-PCC End of Day Report at the beginning of each business day to use for balancing. 2 Compare the End of Day Report to the 215 Deposit Ticket Report to ensure all scanned checks were successfully processed through to Fiscal Service (FS). All payments listed on the end of day report must be reflected on the deposit ticket. 3 Look at the payment status. If the payment status is "POSTED" or "DEPOSITED," then the payments processed through to Fiscal Service (FS), and you must annotate the Batch Cover Sheet with the deposit ticket date (found at the top of the 215 Deposit Ticket Report). If the payment status is not "POSTED" or "DEPOSITED", then go to step 4. Note: The payment status "ACKNOWLEDGED" does not indicate successful deposit. 4 If the End of Day Report does not match the 215 Deposit Ticket Report, then determine what batches and/or checks were not processed through to FS. If payment status is not "POSTED" or "DEPOSITED", then the payment did not successfully deposit. Open the batch to view the list of checks in the batch. 5 If an entire batch failed to process through FS, then the batch will be in "Failed During Transmit", or "Failed to Transmit" status, and you must take corrective action. Restart the batch to retransmit for deposit. 6 Monitor the status to ensure that the retransmitted batch processes through to FS. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 to ensure the retransmitted batch is successful. If unsuccessful after retransmission, or for technical assistance, contact the RS-PCC Team. See Step 8 below. 7 After all daily balancing is complete and reconciled, then associate the completed Forms 14350 Payment Posting Voucher with the corresponding case file(s) and route to the WIIC PSP Austin Unit of LB&I. 8 Contact the HQ RS-PCC Team at &TS CAS:SP:ATP:EP:RSPCC for technical assistance. Use "Failed Deposit" in the subject e-mail. The RS-PCC project team answers questions sent to this link within 24-hours. Follow directions given by RS-PCC Team member. If you do not receive an answer to your question within 24-hours, then contact the HQ Submission Processing Deposit analyst.
