Regulations were published in the Federal Register at 44 FR 72113 on December 13, 1979. Section 163 gives the IRS authority to enter into cooperative agreements with private or public non-profit agencies or organizations to establish a network of trained volunteers to provide free tax information and return preparation assistance to elderly individuals.

Because applications are being solicited before the FY 2015 budget has been approved, cooperative agreements will be entered into subject to the appropriation of funds.
