(2) Taxpayers making improper prior claims
In the case of a taxpayer who is denied credit under this section or section 24 for any taxable year as a result of the deficiency procedures under subchapter B of chapter 63, no credit shall be allowed under this section for any subsequent taxable year (and no payment shall be made under section 7527A for any subsequent month) unless the taxpayer provides such information as the Secretary may require to demonstrate eligibility for such credit.
(3) Coordination with possessions of the United States
For purposes of this subsection, a taxpayer’s claim of credit under this section or section 24 (or payment received under section 7527A) includes a claim of credit under this section or section 24 of the income tax law of any jurisdiction other than the United States (or similar payment received under section 7527A of such income tax law), and a claim made or a payment received from American Samoa pursuant to a plan described in subsection (h)(3)(B) or section 24(k)(3)(B).

(B)
Changes in the taxpayer’s modified adjusted gross income or filing status that affect the application of the limitation imposed by subsection (b)(2).

A failure to satisfy the requirements of subsection (d).
(F)
A failure to satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (1) or (2) of subsection (e), except that a failure to satisfy the requirements of subsection (e)(1) shall not be taken into account under this subparagraph if the taxpayer demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Secretary that it is reasonable to expect that the qualifying child will be issued a taxpayer identification number and that the delay in such issuance was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect.
(G)
Such other circumstances as the Secretary identifies for purposes of this subparagraph to facilitate the administration and enforcement by the Secretary of section 7527A, to minimize the amount of advance payments made under section 7527A to ineligible individuals, and to prevent abuse.

Except as otherwise provided by the Secretary, in the case of an advance payment made under section 7527A with respect to a joint return, half of such payment shall be treated as having been made to each individual filing such return.
(4) Coordination with possessions of the United States

Any increase in tax imposed on a taxpayer by reason of paragraph (2) of the income tax law of a jurisdiction other than the United States shall be considered to reduce the aggregate amount of payments made to such taxpayer by such jurisdiction. In carrying out this section, the Secretary shall coordinate with each possession of the United States to prevent any application of this paragraph that is inconsistent with the purposes of this subsection.
(h) Application of credit in possessions
(1) Mirror code possessions

(B) Coordination with credit allowed against United States income taxes
No credit shall be allowed under this section for any taxable year to any individual to whom a credit is allowable against taxes imposed by a possession of the United States with a mirror code tax system by reason of the application of this section in such possession for such taxable year.
(C) Mirror code tax system
For purposes of this paragraph, the term mirror code tax system means, with respect to any possession of the United States, the income tax system of such possession if the income tax liability of the residents of such possession under such system is determined by reference to the income tax laws of the United States as if such possession were the United States.

For application of refundable credit to residents of Puerto Rico, see subsection (d).
(B)
For application of advance payment to residents of Puerto Rico, see section 7527A(b)(5).

(B) Distribution requirement
Subparagraph (A) shall not apply unless American Samoa has a plan, which has been approved by the Secretary, under which American Samoa will promptly distribute such payments to its residents.
(C) Coordination with credit allowed against United States income taxes

(1) In general
For purposes of this section, the term period of presumptive eligibility means, with respect to any taxpayer and any child, the period—
(A)
beginning with the calendar month following the calendar month during which the taxpayer provides the Secretary with sufficient information for the Secretary to—
(i)
determine that such child was a specified child of the taxpayer for the reference month (determined without regard to section 24A(c)(7)), and
(ii)
estimate the monthly advance child payment for such calendar month, and
(B)
ending with the earliest of—
(i)
the month beginning immediately after the month on which the Secretary sends the taxpayer a written notice that the taxpayer’s period of presumptive eligibility with respect to such child is being terminated by reason of information known to the Secretary (including a failure to provide annual information under paragraph (2)) which casts doubt on such taxpayer’s status as being allowed the monthly specified child allowance under section 24A for such child (determined without regard to section 24A(c)(7)) with respect to one or more months following the reference month,
(ii)
any month with respect to which the taxpayer notifies the Secretary that such taxpayer is not allowed a monthly specified child allowance for such month under section 24A(b) (determined without regard to section 24A(c)(7)), and

the month beginning immediately before the first month of a new period of presumptive eligibility with respect to such taxpayer and such child which is established on the basis of a reference month more recent than the reference month with respect to which such prior period was established (including on the basis of an annual renewal described in paragraph (2)).
(2) Annual renewal
The Secretary shall terminate a taxpayer’s period of presumptive eligibility with respect to any child under paragraph (1)(B)(i) unless such taxpayer provides information sufficient to establish a new period of presumptive eligibility with respect to such child (as described in paragraph (1)(B)(ii)) on an annual basis.
(3) Automatic eligibility for birth of child

the month for which such period begins, and the month by which the first annual renewal described in paragraph (2) must be completed, are determined, and
(C)
if the first monthly advance child payment with respect to such child is made after the calendar month in which such child is born, such payment is increased to properly take into account the months in such period of presumptive eligibility which precede the month in which such payment is made.
(4) Presumptive eligibility based on certain government programs
The Secretary shall issue regulations or other guidance to establish procedures under which—
(A)
based on information provided to the Secretary by one or more government entities, a parent or specified relative of a child is treated as automatically establishing a period of presumptive eligibility with respect to such child, and

If the challenge claim is established pursuant to the procedures established under paragraph (1)(C), the Secretary shall make a one-time payment to the taxpayer with respect to such claim equal to the aggregate amount of increases in the monthly advance child payments which would have been made to such taxpayer if such challenge claim had been allowed to take effect without regard to this subsection. Any payment under this subparagraph shall be in addition to any payment made under subsection (g).
(B) Termination and reinstatement of original claim
