Rebecca Kysar has argued this raises a doubt on whether are constitutional, because tax (like other treaties) negotiated by executive branch and Senate with no involvement House, all tax-raising measures must originate House under Origination Clause (U.S. Const. Art I, section 7, clause 7). Her preferred solution is to make non-self executing, but that would reverse universal practice 1932, therefore unlikely. Moreover, generally precluded from raising revenue Saving (Art. 1(4)). But Kysar’s argument another question regard noncompulsory payment rule (Treas. Reg. 1.902-2(e)(5)). Under rule, taxpayer who entitled benefit does not avail itself of may get foreign credit for excess withholding levied over rate 1.902-2(e)(5), Example 6). means taxpayer’s taxes amount it pay absence treaty, which turn constitutional issue invoked Kysar. The paper concludes questioning worth complexity imposes both taxpayers IRS.
