The Internal Revenue Service issued a notice of proposed rulemaking correction (FR Doc No. 2026-22859) on Nov. 10, 2026. The correction amends the proposed regulations identified as REG-116506-25, which were originally published on Sep. 11, 2026.

The notice lists 42 specific corrections, ranging from changing "nonqualified" to "non-qualified" and "enactments" to "enactment" to revising section references such as "Sec. 1.6039K-1(j)(1)" to "Sec. 1.6039K-1(i)(1)" and updating language throughout the draft text.

The underlying proposed regulations would implement new statutory requirements for qualified opportunity funds to file information returns under sections 1400Z-2, 6039K, 6039L and related provisions, and to furnish statements to investors who dispose of interests and to qualified opportunity zone businesses that hold those interests. The deadline for written or electronic comments on the proposal was Oct. 26, 2026, and comments are to be submitted via the Federal eRulemaking Portal.
