Ante, p. ion. SEC. 4. The amendments made by the first section, section 2, and subsection (a) of section 3 of this Act shall apply with respect to taxable years beginning after December 31, 1960. The amendment made by subsection (b) of section 3 of this Act shall apply with respect to taxable years beginning after December 31, 1953, and ending after August 16, 1954. The amendments made by subsection (c) of section 3 of this Act shall apply with respect to taxable years beginning after December 31, 1957. SEC. 5. Any amount received after December 31, 1949, and before October 1, 1955, from a corporation which— (1) was formed exclusively for the purpose of, and was engaged exclusively in, operating without profit a scientific laboratory for the Atomic Energy Commission, and (2) operated solely on funds appropriated to the Atomic Energy Commission, by an individual as reimbursement for moving himself and his immediate family, household goods, and personal effects to a new place of residence in order to accept employment with such corporation shall, for Federal income tax purposes, be treated as an amount which was not includible in the gross income of the individual, to the extent that such amount did not exceed the actual expenses paid or incurred by the individual for such purposes, if the individual was advised, at the time of his employment, by an authorized officer, employee, or agent of such corporation that the amount of such reimbursement would not be includible in gross income. If refund or credit of any overpayment resulting from the application of this section is prevented on the date of enactment of this Act, or within six months after such date, by the operation of any law or rule of law (other than chapter 74 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, relating to closing agreements 68A Stat. 849. and compromises, and the corresponding provisions of prior law), refund or credit of such overpayment may, nevertheless, be made or allowed if claim therefor is filed within six months after such date. No interest shall be paid or allowed on any overpayment resulting from the application of the preceding sentence.
