               After concessions,1 the only issues for decision are:                  
               (1) Whether we have authority under section 6512(b) to award           
          a refund of petitioners’ $2,045 overpayment for taxable year                
          1994.  We hold that we do not.                                              
               (2) Whether petitioners are entitled to a carryover credit             
          from taxable year 1990 to taxable year 1991 in excess of the                
          $152 that respondent has allowed.  We hold that they are not.               
               Unless otherwise indicated, all section references are to              
          the Internal Revenue Code in effect for the taxable years in                
          issue, and all Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of                
          Practice and Procedure.                                                     
               The parties have stipulated some of the facts, which are               
          incorporated by this reference.  When they filed their petition,            
          petitioners resided in Buford, Georgia.                                     
               Respondent received petitioners’ 1990, 1991, and 1992 joint            
          Federal income tax returns on or about September 29, 1993, April            
          6, 1995, and June 11, 1996, respectively.2  In addition,                    


               1 Respondent concedes that petitioners have made                       
          overpayments for taxable years 1991, 1994, and 1995 in the                  
          amounts of $611, $2,045, and $26, respectively, and that                    
          petitioners are entitled to refunds of their 1991 and 1995                  
          overpayments, subject to offset for other amounts that might be             
          due to the United States.  Petitioners concede that they owe                
          deficiencies of $778 and $674 for taxable years 1993 and 1996,              
          respectively.  Respondent also concedes the additions to tax                
          under secs. 6651(a)(1) and 6654 for both petitioners.                       
               2 Petitioners filed a Form 4868, Application for Automatic             
          Extension of Time to File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return for             
                                                             (continued...)
