Holding period of carryover basis property / BEBR No. 488

"The paper calls attention to the fact that there was evidently an error of omission in the Tax Reform Act of 1976. New Section 1023 does not provide holding period rules for property acquired from a decedent dying after 1976. The paper suggests that it is not obvious that this oversight should be corrected if indeed it is an oversight, and also suggests what affected taxpayers might do in the interim, pending possible congressional action.
