Agent of the Group for Consolidated Groups with Foreign Parents
In certain circumstances, a foreign entity involved in a so-called inversion transaction is treated as a domestic corporation for all federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, a foreign entity could become the common parent of a consolidated group. As common parent, this entity would become the sole agent for the group with respect to federal income tax matters. Having a foreign entity act as the agent for the group may not always be efficient or practical for tax administration. These regulations allow the IRS to designate a domestic member of the group to act as the group's sole agent in place of such a common parent. TD 9255. Published March 14, 2006.
