Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 151 / Friday, August 5, 2011 / Notices
OMB Number: 1545–1662.
Form Number: REG–121063–97; TD
8972 (Final).
Abstract: Section 1301 of the Internal
Revenue Code allows an individual
engaged in a farming business to elect
to reduce his or her regular tax liability
by treating all or a portion of the current
year’s farming income as if it had been
earned in equal proportions over the
prior three years. To take advantage of
income averaging, § 1301 requires that
the taxpayer calculate the § 1 tax using
the three prior year’s tax tables and, if
applicable, Schedule D, Capital Gains
and Losses, (to apply the maximum
capital gains tax rates), as well as the
current year’s tax tables or tax rate
schedules. The regulation requires the
taxpayer to use Schedule J of Form 1040
to record and total the amount of tax for
each year of the four year calculation.
Current Actions: There are no changes
to this existing regulation.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
The burden for this requirement is
reflected in the burden estimate for
Schedule J of Form 1040.
The following paragraph applies to all
of the collections of information covered
by this notice:
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 shall 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.
