	AIN Online June 2001: IRS ruling could mean backtax hit for Part 135s (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The IRS memo states that it is the latter, and the agency is holding the Minnesota charter firm secondarily liable for about $10,000.
		In a letter to IRS commissioner Charles Rossotti, NATA pointed out that when the tax was enacted it was not made clear how this segment fee was to be applied to on-demand air charter where the use of the entire aircraft is being purchased, not an individual seat.
		While it does not agree with the IRS position that segment fees are required per passenger, it said most affected operators should be able to make changes to their accounting structure quickly to comply with the decision.

		However, it is detrimental both to the IRS and to the goal of revenue collection for the IRS to have the negative public image it currently has and to receive such poor performance ratings as it has in recent surveys.
		Holding a two-way conversation with the IRS to discuss payments, penalties, errors, missing information, etc. must be distinguished from representing taxpayers before the IRS and entering into binding agreements on their behalf, for which there is a continuing need for a formal power of attorney.
		For the IRS, new legislation requires the development of training for IRS employees and educational programs for taxpayers, the reprogramming of computer software and the reallocation of audit resources, in addition to the revision or development of tax forms to reflect the new law.

		Chanchagi Airlines, one of the most profound carriers was to join the fray in air fare reduction following the success of the Albarka example, having been cowed into submission by other airlines spearheaded by the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) when it made an earlier move to cut fares.
		For instance, IRS Airlines, one of the newest entrants argued rather convincingly that fare cuts would be counter-productive.
		The argument of the IRS chairman, from all intents and purposes, cannot be faulted and so the airline was not swayed into joining the fare cut proponents having come at the heat of the phenomenon.

		While the local airlines were totally grounded due to the dry wind, their foreign counterparts had their flights diverted to neighbouring countries, incurring added operational cost in the process.

		It should be noted that virtually all the local airlines in the country operate old generation aircraft and have little or no maintenance capabilities to keep their machines in top shape.

		As a result of the furor caused by the ruling, the IRS stated that it would reconsider the results of the ruling and reiterated that private letter rulings apply only to the taxpayer to whom they are issued.
		Until the IRS issues further guidance, employers should be permitted to continue treating frequent flyer miles earned by business travelers as an intangible nontaxable benefit despite the lack of a clearly discernable income exclusion.
		The IRS has indicated that there is no current enforcement program regarding frequent flyer miles, and there are no instructions in the Internal Revenue Manual regarding the audit of such programs.

		From 19851988, American Airlines provided a $36 per-diem allowance to its flight crew and flight attendants, for meals and incidental expenses while away on overnight and turnaround trips (i.e., travel involving departure and return to a home base on the same day).
		It held that the per-diem payments for overnight trips were not excludible from wages, because American Airlines had not shown that they were based on expenses reasonably expected to be incurred and, therefore, did not meet the definition of "wages" under Regs.
		This issue had been a stumbling block to the implementation of the Checkbox Initiative, until a clear distinction was established between limited third-party disclosure for the purpose of responding to issues and questions on a single year's return and issues that required a power of attorney.

	NAEA - Testimony 3
		The IRS of twenty years ago was broadly respected for the caliber of its executive leadership and we believe that was the direct result of the highly decentralized nature of its decision making process.
		The problem with the IRS is not the quality of the people who work there - they are generally as fine and honest a group of citizens as you are likely to encounter anywhere.
		NAEA recommends that the IRS standard for electronic filing submissions should be written to an unencrypted, open-document standard so that individual taxpayers and practitioners may be given the option of utilizing whatever electronic filing transmission service they select based on market place pricing.
