Summary
Amends the Internal Revenue Code to permit the waiver of residency requirements for individuals residing in a foreign country who claim income tax deductions for living expenses incurred in such country, if such individuals are prevented from conducting normal business in such country due to war, civil unrest, or similar adverse conditions, and such individuals prove to the satisfaction of the Secretary of the Treasury that they would have met such residency requirements under normal conditions. Permits a taxpayer to roll over complete distributions from a money purchase pension plan or report income from such distribution according to the ten-year income averaging rules, even if there is no similar distribution from another pension plan of the same employer in which the taxpayer is a participant. Raises the age requirement for youths participating in the qualified cooperative education program from 16-19 to 16-20, for purposes of the targeted jobs credit. Provides that, with respect to any sale of real property during 1976, indebtedness incurred before January 1, 1965 by a tax-exempt organization to finance the construction of a building on such property shall not be treated as acquisition indebtedness for purposes of the tax on the unrelated business income of such organization, if the property was acquired by such organization before January 1, 1952, and is contiguous to another parcel of real property which was acquired by such organization before January 1, 1952, and was used by such organization in accordance with the purposes for which such organization received its tax-exemption.
