The following is a cut-n-paste from a CCH article: "According to a Democratic summary of the legislation, the bill would provide tax relief to homebuyers and homeowners, increase state allocations of low-income housing tax credits and tax-exempt bond financing. It would also increase funding for the Community Development Block Grant program. The cost of these and other provisions would be offset by requiring credit card information return reporting by merchants, delaying the worldwide allocation of interest rules and modifying the exclusion of gains on the sale of a principal residence."
What is the purpose of the credit card information return reporting by merchants and what is its effect on taxpayers?
What are the worldwide allocation of interest rules?
How has the exclusion of gains on the sale of a principal residence been modified?
