SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Enhanced Oil Recovery Credit.
OMB Number: 1545-1292.
Form Number: 8830.
Abstract: This regulation provides guidance concerning the costs
subject to the enhanced oil recovery credit, the circumstances under
which the credit is available, and procedures for certifying to the
Internal Revenue Service that a project meets the requirements of
section 43(c) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Current Actions: There are no changes being made to the
regulations, at this time. Form 8830 was not issued for 2019-2020
because the section 43 credit was completely phased out and the form
was not needed due to the continued high price of crude oil; however,
it will apply again for tax years beginning in 2021. The changes made
to Form 8830, reflect Notice 2021-47. This will increase the number of
responses by

internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information
