Field 07B/D is a 15-position field that may or may not be present.
-
The field is located on Lines 68 (+) and 69 (-).
-
The valid characters are numeric (0 through 9) and blank.
-
The amount can be positive (balance due) or negative (refund).
Note:
If the overpayment is a refund, CCC S must be in Field 0763A and there must be a 1 in Field 0771. If the overpayment is credit elect, CCC E must be in Field 0763A and Field 0771 must be blank.
-
The field breaker must be positive (+) for a balance due and minus (-) for a refund.
-
≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡
-
The amount in the field is the difference between Field 0763C (tax) and Field 0767 (payments) plus Field 07FTD (penalty).
-
Invalid Conditions -
-
There is a non-numeric character in the field.

-
A refund that is in Interest Jeopardy must be processed as a Manual Refund if the amount meets the Service Center criteria.
-
An overpayment on Form 1042 can be either a refund or credit elect to the following year, but not both, as this is not in the program. If the taxpayer indicates that part of the overpayment is to be refunded and part is carried forward to the following year, the return must be rejected from Error Correction. Notate the Form 4227 REFUND & CREDIT ELECT. See Rejects correction procedures for processing.
Note:
Look on the return in the margin for an indication that Code & Edit already sent a Form 3465 to have the credit elect amount transferred. It will still be necessary to reject the return so Rejects can adjust the amounts on the return and register.
-
-
Correction Procedures -
-
Be sure that the amount AND field breaker are entered correctly.
Reminder:
When correcting the field breaker, a balance due is entered with a comma (,) and a refund with a pound sign (#).
-
Delete any interest or penalty (except the amount in Field 07FTD) from the balance due or refund.
Note:
Deleting penalty or interest will DECREASE a balance due amount but will INCREASE a refund amount.
-
If there is an underprint, be sure the tax and payments total are entered correctly and that there is no penalty (except 07FTD) or interest included. Assign TPNC 01.

Note:
If the return is pulled form the block prior to its being worked by the tax examiner, be sure the Action Code 3 is entered on the register and the return is charged-out.
-
If it cannot be determined how the taxpayer computed the balance due or refund, reject the return for research by Rejects.
-
Remember that if the taxpayer check the NQI box on the front of the return, NO refund is allowed. Follow the correction procedures under Field 0766.
-
If the QI taxpayer is claiming a refund, there must be Forms 1042-S attached to the Form 1042 to substantiate the credit on Line 66 (see Field 0766 for more information).
-
If the taxpayer wants all or part of the refund transferred to a different tax period or return, reject the return. Notate the Form 4227 REFUND TRANSFER.
-
If Field 07B/D is blank but is underprinting an overpayment, look to see if there is an entry on Line 66 (Field 0766) that was erroneously used as a total line for Lines 64 and 65. If so, move the data to the correct line and field.
-
If neither checkbox on Line 71 was checked and there is an overpayment AND YOU ARE CORRESPONDING FOR ANOTHER CONDITION, ask the taxpayer to indicate which box should have been checked. Do not correspond for this if there is no other reason to correspond (enter the CCC "E" ).
-
Do not send a TPNC if there is no underprint in the balance due/refund field (07B/D). If there are underprints in Fields 0763A and 0763C, but NOT in 07B/D, then: Be sure all money fields in Section 07 are entered correctly. Remember that the tolerance for total tax≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ Fields 0763A and 0763C will underprint if the difference is ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ more, but Field 07B/D will not underprint for an error ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ In this case, bring up the underprints in Fields 0763A and 0763C. Do NOT send a TPNC in this case.
-
If the withholding agent put the overpayment of balance due onto the wrong line of the return, so that Field 07B/D has the correct (or in tolerance) amount but the wrong sign (field breaker), then: If you change the plus to a minus, be sure to enter CCC E or S into Field 0763A (as appropriate) and enter a 1 into Field 0771 if the overpayment is a refund. If you change the minus to a plus, be sure to delete CCC E or S from Field 0763A and delete the 1 from 0771, if present.
-
-
Rejects Correction Procedures -
-
If Error Correction cannot determine how the taxpayer computed the refund or balance due and researching the credits does not provide an answer, correspond with the taxpayer asking for an explanation if the amount is significant ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡ Otherwise, send TPNC 01.
-
When the REPLY is received, adjust the return and fields accordingly. If NO REPLY is received, adjust the amounts in favor of the IRS,
-
Follow service center procedures concerning Manual Refund processing, depending on whether the Manual Refund forms (5792 and 3753) are completed in Error Resolution or in Accounting. If in Error Resolution, see IRM 3.12.38.20.4 for processing.
Note:
Regardless of where the forms are prepared, Rejects must enter the CCC O into Field 01CCC (and on the return, in brown pencil). If there is an error affecting the refund amount, send the appropriate TPNC.
-
If the taxpayer wants all or part of the overpayment transferred to a different return, tax year, EIN, etc., or indicates that part of the overpayment is to be refunded and part credit elect to the following year:
Note:
In this case the taxpayer may check both boxes on Line 71, then.
Prepare and send Form 3465 (Adjustment Request). See Exhibit 3.22.110-4. Note:
Do not prepare a Form 3465 if there is a notation in the margin of the return indicating Code & Edit already prepared and sent this form.
If the credit transfer can be done in the Rejects Unit, then the Form 3465 is unnecessary. If all of the overpayment is to be transferred, enter Computer Condition Code X. If only part of the overpayment is to be transferred (credit elect) and the rest refunded: (a) Reduce a credit amount (Lines 64-66) by the amount to be transferred. (b) Reduce the credit amount, total and overpayment on the return and register to reflect only the amount to be actually refunded. This is true for both computer-generated and manual refunds. Note:
Even though it is part of the overpayment that the taxpayer wants carried over to the following year, you are not transferring part of the REFUND, but part of the CREDIT amount leading up to the refund.
(c) The above is to be done whether the Form 3465 was prepared, or the credit transfer was done in the Rejects unit. (d) Because what now shows on the register is the refund amount, CCC S will be in Field 01CCC and on the return. Note:
Do not enter a CCC X (to hold the credit to be transferred in the module) if any part of the overpayment is to be refunded as this will prevent the refund from being released.

-
Field 07FTD is a 15-position field that may or may not be present.
-
The field is located on Line 70.
-
The valid characters are numeric (0 through 9) and blank.
-
The amount must be positive and in DOLLARS and CENTS.
-
This penalty is the only penalty that is included as part of the balance due or refund amount.

-
Correction/ Rejects Correction Procedures -
-
Be sure that the amount is entered correctly.
-
If the withholding agent put the overpayment or balance due onto Line 70 incorrectly (when it should have been entered onto Line 69 or 71), then:
1. If the amount is an overpayment, be sure to enter CCC E or S into Field 0763A (as appropriate) and enter a 1 into Field 0771 if the overpayment is a refund after moving the money to the correct line of the return. Be sure the correct field breaker and amount appear in Field 07B/D. 2. If the amount is a balance due, be sure to delete CCC E or S from Field 0763A and delete the 1 from 0771, if present, after moving the money to the correct line of the return. Be sure the correct field breaker and amount appear in Field 07B/D. 3. In either of the above cases, be sure that any amount still in Field 07FTD is the FTD penalty only. -
If you must adjust the balance due to refund because penalties or interest were included, remember that this penalty must remain as part of the balance due or refund.
-
If there is an amount in this field, CCC J will be invalid. Determine which is correct and delete the other. Look for a misplaced entry on this line.
