               Respondent determined a deficiency in petitioner's  1991                
          Federal income tax in the amount of $308.                                    
                    After concessions by petitioner,2 the issue for                    
          decision is whether petitioner must pay interest on the $308                 
          deficiency.                                                                  
               No facts were stipulated.  Petitioner resided in Colorado               
          Springs, Colorado, on the date the petition was filed in this                
          case.                                                                        
               On his 1990 Federal income tax return petitioner claimed a              
          deduction for State and local income taxes paid in the amount of             
          $1,584.  The State and local tax deduction claimed by petitioner             
          was taken from a Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, which withheld            
          California State taxes.3                                                     
               In 1991, petitioner received a State income tax refund for              
          1990 in the amount of $1,078.4  Petitioner failed to report the              
          State income tax refund on his 1991 Federal income tax return.               




          1(...continued)                                                              
          to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure.                            
          2         At trial petitioner agreed to the deficiency but not               
          the interest.                                                                
          3         It is not clear from the record why California State               
          taxes were withheld.  On petitioner's 1990 Federal income tax                
          return petitioner filed as a resident of Tucson, Arizona.                    
          4         The refund received by petitioner was in the amount of             
          $1,178, which included a $100 renter's credit from the State of              
          California.
