The PRA also requires agencies to estimate the burden for each collection of information. Burden estimates for each control number are displayed in (1) PRA notices that accompany collections of information, (2) Federal Register notices such as this one, and (3) OMB’s database of approved information collections.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information should be directed to Chief, RAS:R:TAM, NCA 7th Floor, Internal Revenue Service, 1111 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20224. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Individual Taxpayer Burden Model (ITBM) estimates burden experienced by individual taxpayers when complying with Federal tax laws and incorporates results from a survey of tax year 2007 individual taxpayers, conducted in 2008 and 2009. The approach to measuring burden focuses on the characteristics and activities undertaken by individual taxpayers in meeting their tax return filing obligations. Burden is defined as the time and outof-pocket costs incurred by taxpayers in complying with the Federal tax system and are estimated separately. Out-ofpocket costs include any expenses incurred by taxpayers to prepare and submit their tax returns. Examples include tax return preparation fees, the purchase price of tax preparation software, submission fees, photocopying costs, postage, and phone calls (if not toll-free). The methodology distinguishes among preparation method, taxpayer activities, taxpayer type, filing method, and income level. Indicators of tax law and administrative complexity, as reflected in the tax forms and instructions, are incorporated into the model. Preparation methods reflected in the model are as follows: • Self-prepared without software, • Self-prepared with software, and • Use of a paid preparer or tax professional. Types of taxpayer activities reflected in the model are as follows: • Recordkeeping, PO 00000 Frm 00146 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 4423 • Tax planning, • Gathering tax materials, • Use of services (IRS and other), • Form completion, and • Form submission (electronic and paper). Taxpayer Burden Estimates Summary level results using this methodology are presented in Table 1 below. The data shown are the best forward-looking estimates available for income tax returns filed for tax year 2010. Note that the estimates presented in this table differ from those published in the tax form instructions and publications. Revised estimates presented herein reflect legislation approved after the IRS Forms and Publications print deadline. Table 1 shows burden estimates by form type and type of taxpayer. Time burden is further broken out by taxpayer activity. The largest component of time burden for all taxpayers is recordkeeping, as opposed to form completion and submission. In addition, the time burden associated with form completion and submission activities is closely tied to preparation method. Both time and cost burdens are national averages and do not necessarily reflect a ‘‘typical’’ case. For instance, the average time burden for all taxpayers filing a 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ is estimated at 19 hours, with an average cost of $250 per return. This average includes all associated forms and schedules, across all preparation methods and all taxpayer activities. Taxpayers filing Form 1040 have an expected average burden of about 24 hours and $310; the average burden for taxpayers filing Form 1040A is about 9 hours and $130; and the average for Form 1040EZ filers is about 7 hours and $60. However, within each of these estimates, there is significant variation in taxpayer activity. Similarly, tax preparation fees vary extensively depending on the taxpayer’s tax situation and issues, the type of professional preparer, and the geographic area. The estimates include burden for activities up through and including filing a return but do not include burden associated with post-filing activities. However, operational IRS data indicate that electronically prepared and e-filed returns have fewer arithmetic errors, implying a lower associated post-filing burden. Proposed PRA Submission to OMB Title: U.S. Individual Income Tax Return. OMB Number: 1545–0074. E:\FR\FM\25JAN1.SGM 25JAN1 4424 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 16 / Tuesday, January 25, 2011 / Notices Form Numbers: Form 1040 and Schedules A, B, C, C–EZ, D, D–1, E, EIC, F, H, J, R, and SE; Form 1040A; Form 1040EZ; Form 1040NR; Form 1040NR– EZ, Form 1040X; and all attachments to these forms (see the Appendix to this notice). Abstract: These forms are used by individuals to report their income tax liability. The data is used to verify that the items reported on the forms are correct, and also for general statistical use. Current Actions: Changes in aggregate compliance burden estimates are explained in terms of three major components: Technical Adjustments, Statutory Changes, and Agency (IRS) Discretionary Changes and are presented in Table 2 below. Technical Adjustments Technical changes include refinements to the modeling methodology using the new survey data as well as the effects of the economic recovery and an increase in the number of taxpayers projected. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES Statutory Changes The primary drivers for the statutory changes are newly enacted legislation along with the expiration of many provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. New legislation includes the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010; the Patient Protection VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:40 Jan 24, 2011 Jkt 223001 and Affordable Care Act; the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010; and related legislations. IRS Discretionary Changes IRS discretionary changes include redesign of Form1040X, fees associated with new paid professional licensing requirements, changes in the delivery of form instructions and publications to taxpayers, and delayed filing resulting from late legislation. These changes have resulted in an overall increase of 270,000,000 total hours and $650,000,000 in taxpayer burden previously approved by OMB. Type of Review: Revision of currently approved collections. Affected Public: Individuals or households. Estimated Number of Respondents: 146,700,000. Total Estimated Time: 2.701 billion hours (2,701,000,000 hours). Estimated Time per Respondent: 19 hours. Total Estimated Out-of-Pocket Costs: $35.193 billion ($35,193,000,000). Estimated Out-of-Pocket Cost per Respondent: $250. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of information displays a valid OMB Control Number. PO 00000 Frm 00147 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Books or records relating to a collection of information must be retained as long as their contents may become material in the administration of any internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information are confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103. Request for Comments Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.

Notice. AGENCY: ACTION: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is publishing a summary of legal interpretations issued by the Office of General Counsel involving Veterans’ benefits under laws administered by VA. This interpretation is considered precedential by VA and will be followed by VA officials and employees in future claim matters involving the same legal issues. The summary is published to provide the public, and, in particular, Veterans’ benefits claimants and their representatives, with notice of VA’s interpretations regarding the legal matters at issue. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Susan P. Sokoll, Law Librarian, Department of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue, NW. (026H), Washington, DC 20420, (202) 461–7623. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A VA regulation at 38 CFR 2.6(e)(8) delegates to the General Counsel the power to designate an opinion as precedential and 38 CFR 14.507(b) specifies that precedential opinions involving Veterans’ benefits are binding on VA officials and employees in subsequent matters involving the legal issue decided in the precedent opinion. The interpretation of the General Counsel on legal matters, contained in such opinions, is conclusive as to all VA officials and employees, not only in the matter at issue, but also in future adjudications and appeals involving the same legal issues, in the absence of a change in controlling statute or regulation or a superseding written legal opinion of the General Counsel. VA publishes summaries of such opinions in order to provide the public with notice of those interpretations of the General Counsel that must be followed in future benefit matters and to assist Veterans’ benefits claimants and their representatives in the prosecution of benefit claims. The full text of such opinions, with personal identifiers deleted, may be obtained by contacting the VA official named above or by accessing the opinions on the Internet at https://www4.va.gov/ogc/ precedentopinions.asp. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:39 Jan 24, 2011 Jkt 223001 5–2010 Questions Presented: Does 38 U.S.C. 3677(c)(7), which provides that ‘‘[n]o course of training will be considered bona fide if given to an eligible veteran or person who is already qualified by training and experience for the job’’ preclude approval of an on-the-job training (OJT) program for employees of State approving agencies (SAA) who are identified by contract as professional staff members responsible for approving programs of education or training? Held: Section 3677(c)(7) precludes approval of an OJT program for SAA employees who are identified by contract as professional staff members responsible for approving programs of education because these employees are already qualified by training and experience for the job. Because we have determined that all professional staff members responsible for approving programs of education or training are already qualified by training and experience for the job and, therefore, are not eligible for participation in an OJT program, it is not necessary to address the additional questions presented in B1 and B2 of your request. Effective Date: September 10, 2010 VAOPGCPREC 6–2010 Questions Presented: a. How does the June 18, 2010, Presidential Memorandum on Enhancing Payment Accuracy Through a ‘‘Do Not Pay List’’ affect Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) benefit payments? b. Does the Presidential Memorandum override in any way the procedural protections that are provided for in VA law and regulations, particularly the notice to claimants and beneficiaries and the opportunity for them to be heard that is afforded in connection with adjudicative actions denying their claims or reducing or discontinuing their current awards? c. Does the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 apply to the database matching requirements of the Presidential memorandum? Held: a. The June 18, 2010, Presidential Memorandum on Enhancing Payment Accuracy Through a ‘‘Do Not Pay List’’ requires Federal agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), to review pre-payment and pre-award PO 00000 Frm 00153 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 procedures and ensure that a thorough review of available databases with relevant information on eligibility occurs before the release of Federal funds. The Presidential Memorandum relates only to the procedures VA must follow before making benefit payments or awards, not the statutory or regulatory criteria for determining eligibility for, or entitlement to, any benefit. b. VA would treat the information obtained from the database review pursuant to the Presidential Memorandum in the same manner as information obtained from other sources. For a claimant denied an award or payment as a result of information disclosed in a database review, VA must summarize the information obtained through the database review in its decision notification and any statement of the case. In the case of information obtained from the database review that would result in the reduction or discontinuance of, or otherwise adversely affect, a current award of compensation, pension, or dependency and indemnity compensation, with certain exceptions, VA must, before issuing a decision, advise the beneficiary of the information received, the proposed effect that the information would have on the beneficiary’s VA benefits, and the beneficiary’s opportunity to submit evidence or have a hearing. Among the exceptions is that VA will send written notice to the beneficiary at the same time it takes an adverse action if the evidence reasonably indicates that a beneficiary is deceased. c. The Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 applies to the database matching requirements of the Presidential Memorandum to the extent the databases that make up the Do Not Pay List are used to verify eligibility for, or entitlement to, VA benefits by virtue of a computerized comparison of two automated systems of records. Effective Date: September 12, 2010. Dated: January 19, 2011. By Direction of the Secretary. Will A. Gunn, General Counsel, Department of Veterans Affairs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

PRA Approval of Forms Used by Individual Taxpayers

    Under the PRA, OMB assigns a control number to each ''collection of 
information'' that it reviews and approves for use by an agency. The 
PRA also requires agencies to estimate the burden for each collection 
of information. Burden estimates for each control number are displayed 
in (1) PRA notices that accompany collections of information, (2) 
Federal Register notices such as this one, and (3) OMB's database of 
approved information collections.

Taxpayer Burden Model

    The Individual Taxpayer Burden Model (ITBM) estimates burden 
experienced by individual taxpayers when complying with Federal tax 
laws and incorporates results from a survey of tax year 2007 individual 
taxpayers, conducted in 2008 and 2009. The approach to measuring burden 
focuses on the characteristics and activities undertaken by individual 
taxpayers in meeting their tax return filing obligations.
    Burden is defined as the time and out-of-pocket costs incurred by 
taxpayers in complying with the Federal tax system and are estimated 
separately. Out-of-pocket costs include any expenses incurred by 
taxpayers to prepare and submit their tax returns. Examples include tax 
return preparation fees, the purchase price of tax preparation 
software, submission fees, photocopying costs, postage, and phone calls 
(if not toll-free).
    The methodology distinguishes among preparation method, taxpayer 
activities, taxpayer type, filing method, and income level. Indicators 
of tax law and administrative complexity, as reflected in the tax forms 
and instructions, are incorporated into the model.
    Preparation methods reflected in the model are as follows:
     Self-prepared without software,
     Self-prepared with software, and
     Use of a paid preparer or tax professional.
    Types of taxpayer activities reflected in the model are as follows:
     Recordkeeping,
     Tax planning,
     Gathering tax materials,
     Use of services (IRS and other),
     Form completion, and
     Form submission (electronic and paper).

Taxpayer Burden Estimates

    Summary level results using this methodology are presented in Table 
1 below. The data shown are the best forward-looking estimates 
available for income tax returns filed for tax year 2010. Note that the 
estimates presented in this table differ from those published in the 
tax form instructions and publications. Revised estimates presented 
herein reflect legislation approved after the IRS Forms and 
Publications print deadline.
    Table 1 shows burden estimates by form type and type of taxpayer. 
Time burden is further broken out by taxpayer activity. The largest 
component of time burden for all taxpayers is recordkeeping, as opposed 
to form completion and submission. In addition, the time burden 
associated with form completion and submission activities is closely 
tied to preparation method.
    Both time and cost burdens are national averages and do not 
necessarily reflect a ``typical'' case. For instance, the average time 
burden for all taxpayers filing a 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ is estimated 
at 19 hours, with an average cost of $250 per return. This average 
includes all associated forms and schedules, across all preparation 
methods and all taxpayer activities. Taxpayers filing Form 1040 have an 
expected average burden of about 24 hours and $310; the average burden 
for taxpayers filing Form 1040A is about 9 hours and $130; and the 
average for Form 1040EZ filers is about 7 hours and $60. However, 
within each of these estimates, there is significant variation in 
taxpayer activity. Similarly, tax preparation fees vary extensively 
depending on the taxpayer's tax situation and issues, the type of 
professional preparer, and the geographic area.
    The estimates include burden for activities up through and 
including filing a return but do not include burden associated with 
post-filing activities. However, operational IRS data indicate that 
electronically prepared and e-filed returns have fewer arithmetic 
errors, implying a lower associated post-filing burden.

Proposed PRA Submission to OMB

    Title: U.S. Individual Income Tax Return.
    OMB Number: 1545-0074.

[[Page 4424]]

    Form Numbers: Form 1040 and Schedules A, B, C, C-EZ, D, D-1, E, 
EIC, F, H, J, R, and SE; Form 1040A; Form 1040EZ; Form 1040NR; Form 
1040NR-EZ, Form 1040X; and all attachments to these forms (see the 
Appendix to this notice).
    Abstract: These forms are used by individuals to report their 
income tax liability. The data is used to verify that the items 
reported on the forms are correct, and also for general statistical 
use.
    Current Actions: Changes in aggregate compliance burden estimates 
are explained in terms of three major components: Technical 
Adjustments, Statutory Changes, and Agency (IRS) Discretionary Changes 
and are presented in Table 2 below.

Technical Adjustments

    Technical changes include refinements to the modeling methodology 
using the new survey data as well as the effects of the economic 
recovery and an increase in the number of taxpayers projected.

Statutory Changes

    The primary drivers for the statutory changes are newly enacted 
legislation along with the expiration of many provisions of the 
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. New legislation 
includes the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010; the Patient Protection 
and Affordable Care Act; the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance 
Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010; and related 
legislations.

IRS Discretionary Changes

    IRS discretionary changes include redesign of Form1040X, fees 
associated with new paid professional licensing requirements, changes 
in the delivery of form instructions and publications to taxpayers, and 
delayed filing resulting from late legislation.
    These changes have resulted in an overall increase of 270,000,000 
total hours and $650,000,000 in taxpayer burden previously approved by 
OMB.
    Type of Review: Revision of currently approved collections.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 146,700,000.
    Total Estimated Time: 2.701 billion hours (2,701,000,000 hours).
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 19 hours.
    Total Estimated Out-of-Pocket Costs: $35.193 billion 
($35,193,000,000).
    Estimated Out-of-Pocket Cost per Respondent: $250.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of 
information displays a valid OMB Control Number.
    Books or records relating to a collection of information must be 
retained as long as their contents may become material in the 
administration of any internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and 
tax return information are confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.

Request for Comments

    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will 
become a matter of public record. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 
the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance 
of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) 
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates 
of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and 
purchase of services to provide information.

    Approved: January 14, 2011.

IRS Supervisory Tax Analyst.
