3-20 Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Proposed Debarment, and Other Responsibility Matters

APR 2011

(a) (1) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that:

(i) the offeror and/or any of its principals:

(A) are __ are not __ presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any federal agency;

(B) have __ have not __, within the three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judg-ment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, at-tempting to obtain, or performing a public (federal, state, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property;

(C) are __ are not __ presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision;

(D) have __ have not __, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liablity is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial chal-lenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples.

(i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. § 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should be taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has

USCA18R0088 /0001 - Page 15 of 22 been issued a notice under I.R.C.. § 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Ap-peals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a fi-nal tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the tax-payer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. § 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankrupty protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collec-tion action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

ii. The offeror __ has __ has not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts ter-minated for default by any federal agency.

(2) "Principal," for the purposes of this certification, means an officer; director; owner; partner; or a person hav-ing primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division, or business segment, and similar positions).
