          Memo. 1993-349.                                                             
               The notices of deficiency concerning petitioner’s 1989 and             
          1990 tax years were mailed on July 3, 1993, and petitioner did not          
          file his 1989 or 1990 returns by that date.7 As a result,                   
          petitioner’s claimed refunds are limited to the amount of 1989 and          
          1990 taxes he paid in the two years prior to the mailing of the             
          notices of deficiency.                                                      
               The only tax payments petitioner made for these years were the         
          withholding credits from his wages, which are deemed to have been           
          paid as of April 15, 1990, and April 15, 1991, for 1989 and 1990,           
          respectively.  See sec. 6513(b)(1).8  Because the withholding taxes         
          were paid more than two years before the notices of deficiency were         
          mailed, petitioner is not entitled to a refund of any part of the           


               7    Petitioner is deemed to have filed his refund claims on           
          July 3, 1993, the date the notices of deficiency were mailed.               
          Sec. 6512(b)(3)(B).                                                         
               8    Sec. 6513(b)(1) provides in pertinent part:                       
                        (1) Any tax actually deducted and withheld at the             
                    source during any calendar year * * * shall * * * be              
                    deemed to have been paid by him on the 15th day of the            
                    fourth month following the close of his taxable year              
                    with respect to which such tax is allowable as a credit           
                    under section 31.
