Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 18 / Friday, January 27, 2012 / Notices
The information will help the IRS to
determine if an eligible entity meets the
requirements of Section 4.01 of this
revenue procedure. The collection of
information is required to obtain
permission to file a late entity
classification election. The information
will be reported on Form 8832 or
submitted as part of a letter ruling
request.
Revenue procedure 2010–32, provides
that, if the requirements of the revenue
procedure are satisfied, the IRS will
treat an election under § 301.7701–3(c)
to classify a foreign eligible entity that
is a qualified entity (as defined in
section 3.02 of the revenue procedure)
as a partnership or disregarded entity as
an election to be treated as a partnership
or disregarded entity (as appropriate)
rather than as an association taxable as
a corporation.
Form 8832 will be used by qualified
entities to seek relief under the revenue
procedure. As a result of these changes,
we estimate an annual increase in
burden by 12,700 hours. This form is
being submitted for renewal purposes
only.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses and other
for-profit organizations, Farms.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
5,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 7
hours 10 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 35,900.
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.

be summarized and/or included in the
request for OMB approval. All
