Open Meeting of the Taxpayer Advocacy Panel's Special Projects Committee; Change, 7783 [2021-02007]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 19 / Monday, February 1, 2021 / Notices FinCEN invites comments on any aspect of the traditional annual PRA burden, as set out in Part 2 of this notice. In particular, FinCEN seeks comments on the adequacy of: (i) FinCEN’s assumptions underlying its estimate of the burden; (ii) the estimated number of hours required by each portion of the burden; and (iii) the organizational levels of the financial institution engaged in each portion of the burden, their estimated hourly remuneration, and the estimated proportion of participation by each role. FinCEN encourages commenters to include any publicly available sources for alternative estimates or methodologies. (b) Specific request for comments on the proposed criteria for determining the scope of a future annual PRA hourly burden and cost estimate. FinCEN invites comments on any aspect of the criteria for a future estimate of the annual PRA burden, as set out in Part 3 of this notice. (c) Specific request for comments on the appropriate criteria, methodology, and questionnaire required to obtain information to more precisely estimate the future annual PRA hourly burden and cost. FinCEN invites comments on the most appropriate and comprehensive means to question financial institutions about the annual hourly burden and cost attributable solely to the regulations covered by this notice (i.e., the hourly burden and cost of complying with the recordkeeping requirements imposed exclusively by the BSA, which are not used to satisfy contractual obligations, other regulatory requirements, or business purposes of the financial institution). The future annual PRA hourly burden and cost estimate must take into consideration only the information collected and recorded that is used exclusively to comply with requirements under 31 CFR 1022.410 and 31 CFR 1023.410. FinCEN seeks comments from the public regarding any questions we should consider posing in future notices, in addition to the specific questions for comment outlined directly below. Also, due to the difficulty involved in estimating the number of transaction accounts, lines of credit, and transactions that trigger recordkeeping requirements, as described in this notice, FinCEN welcomes any suggestions as to how to derive these estimates by using publicly available financial information. (d) Specific questions for comment associated with making and retaining records required by the regulations described in this notice: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:57 Jan 29, 2021 Jkt 253001 (1) Complying With 31 CFR 1022.410(a) • On average, how many transaction accounts or lines of credit does your dealer in foreign exchange open/extend annually, which trigger the recordkeeping requirement in 31 CFR 1022.410(a)? • On average, how long does it take your dealer in foreign exchange to collect and retain the records required to be maintained when you open a transaction account or extend a line of credit?
