Leibowitz, (202) 622–4940; concerning submissions of comments PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 Background and Explanation of Provisions Temporary regulations in the Rules and Regulations section of this issue of the Federal Register amend 26 CFR part 301 relating to section 6020. The temporary regulations retain the method by which an internal revenue officer or employee prepares a return under section 6020(a). Further, the temporary regulations provide that a document (or set of documents) signed by an authorized internal revenue officer or employee is a return under section 6020(b) if the document (or set of documents) identifies the taxpayer by name and taxpayer identification number, contains sufficient information from which to compute the taxpayer’s tax liability, and the document (or set of documents) purport to be a return under section 6020(b). A Form 13496, ‘‘IRC Section 6020(b) Certification,’’ or any other form that an authorized internal revenue officer or employee signs and uses to identify a document (or set of documents) containing the information set forth above as a section 6020(b) return, and the documents identified, constitute a valid section 6020(b) return. The text of those regulations also serve as the text of these proposed regulations. The preamble to the temporary regulations explains the amendments. Special Analyses It has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking is not a significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment is not required. It also has been determined that section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) does not apply to these regulations, and, because these regulations do not impose a collection of information on small entities, the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) does not apply. Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the Internal Revenue Code, this notice of proposed rulemaking will be submitted to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration for comment on their impact.
