                                       - 10 -                                         
          as owing for taxable year 1999 arose from the 10-percent                    
          additional tax imposed by section 72(t) on early distributions              
          from qualified retirement plans, which was imposed on a $38,261             
          distribution Mr. Barrera received from his IRA.5  The $2,905 tax            
          liability (plus additions to tax and interest) for taxable year             
          1999 has not been paid and is still outstanding.                            
               On August 6, 2001, petitioner and Mr. Barrera timely filed             
          (under extension) their joint return for taxable year 2000.  The            
          2000 joint return reported adjusted gross income of $24,446,                
          “total tax” of $3,712, “total payments” of “0”, and a balance due           
          of $3,712 on the line stating “amount you owe”.  The entire                 
          $3,712 tax balance reported as owing for taxable year 2000 arose            
          from the 10-percent additional tax under section 72(t) imposed on           
          IRA distributions totaling $37,119, which included the $20,000              
          distribution from petitioner’s IRA.6  The $3,712 tax liability              
          (plus additions to tax and interest) for taxable year 2000 has              
          not been paid and is still outstanding.                                     
               During petitioner’s marriage to Mr. Barrera, Mr. Barrera was           
          responsible for the preparation of the Federal income tax                   

               5   Petitioner, in her individual capacity, received                   
          interest income of $79 in taxable year 1999, but no part of the             
          $2,905 balance reported as owing on the 1999 joint return was               
          attributable to petitioner’s interest income.                               
               6   Petitioner, in her individual capacity, received                   
          interest income of $19 in taxable year 2000, but no part of the             
          $3,712 tax balance reported as owing on the 2000 joint return was           
          attributable to petitioner’s interest income.
