authorized to credit a taxpayer’s account without an
overpayment”. Section 6402(a) merely provides a procedure
whereby respondent may credit a taxpayer’s overpayment against an
outstanding tax liability before refunding the balance. Neither
section 6402(a) nor any other provision of law forecloses
respondent from giving petitioners proper credit as ordered by
this Court in the exercise of its authority pursuant to section
6330(d).22
To reflect the foregoing,
An order will be issued
denying respondent’s motion
for reconsideration.
22 The amount, if any, of credit due to petitioners will
depend upon findings this Court has ordered respondent’s Appeals
Office to make upon remand.
