An act to promote economic revitalization and facilitate expansion of economic opportunities in the Caribbean Basin region, to provide for backup withholding of tax from interest and dividends, and for other purposes.

Summary

Amends the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 to repeal the provisions which require the withholding of tax on interest and dividends. Makes technical amendments to insure that taxpayers who anticipated the ten percent withholding provision becoming effective on July 1, 1983, do not suffer estimated tax penalties for underpayment of tax for the period between January and June 1983.
