Estimates of capital or start-up costs

information.
The collection of information in this
proposed regulation is in proposed
§§ 20.2010–2(a), 20.2010–2(a)(1),
20.2010–2(a)(3)(i), 20.2010–
2(a)(7)(ii)(B), and 20.2010–2(b). The
information in §§ 20.2010–2(a),
20.2010–2(a)(1), and 20.2010–2(b) as it
affects estates not otherwise required to
file an estate tax return under section
6018(a) is necessary in order for an
executor of a decedent’s estate to elect
portability of a DSUE amount to the
surviving spouse. The information in
§ 20.2010–2(a)(3)(i) is necessary in order
for an executor of a decedent’s estate to
signify that the estate is not electing
portability of a DSUE amount to the
surviving spouse. The information in
§ 20.2010–2(a)(7)(ii)(B) is necessary in
order to evaluate whether an estate
qualifies for a special rule relating to
applicable estate tax return
requirements. The collection of
information is voluntary to obtain a
benefit. The likely respondents are
executors of estates of decedents having
a date of death in 2011 or 2012 or any
subsequent period in which portability
of a DSUE amount is in effect.
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 control number
assigned by the Office of Management
and Budget.
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.
