- 6 - additions to tax based on the submitted return.6 In an amended answer to the amended petition, respondent asserted an additional increase in deficiency and additions to tax.7 3. Tax Return Information The pertinent information in this record regarding petitioner's Federal income tax returns is as follows: Year From Which Tax Year1 Date Filed NOL Claimed NOL Carryover NOL Claimed2 1984 --- --- --- --- 1985 --- --- --- --- 1986 timely $17,501 --- --- 1987 5/5/88 57,738 --- --- 1988 timely 194,301 --- --- 1989 1/22/97 873,917 --- --- 1990 timely 11,163 --- --- 1991 timely --- $22,331 1986 1992 8/30/96 --- 59,669 1987/1988 1993 8/14/96 --- 114,000 1987/1988 1 Petitioner filed joint income tax returns with his spouse for all tax years in question. 2 Information relating to petitioner's 1984 and 1985 tax years has not been made part of this record. 6 Respondent bears the burden of proof on any increase in deficiency. Rule 142(a). The increase in deficiency is based on the amount of income reported on petitioner's delinquent 1993 income tax return, filed after the petition was filed in this case. Since petitioner has reported the income and does not otherwise dispute the receipt of the income as reported, respondent's burden of proof has been met. 7 Respondent subsequently conceded the item of income resulting in the request for an increase in deficiency, along with additional Schedule A itemized deductions claimed by petitioner. Respondent's burden of proof on this increase in deficiency is therefore not an issue.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next
