Abstract: The Compliance Assurance Process (CAP) is strictly a voluntary program available to Large Business and International Division (LB&I) taxpayers that meet the selection criteria. CAP is a real-time review of completed business transactions during the CAP year with the goal of providing certainty of the tax return within 60 days of the filing.

Current Actions: There are two new forms being added to the Information Collection Request. Form 14234–E, Compliance Assurance Process (CAP) Cross Border Activities Questionnaire (CBAQ), is used by the IRS for risk assessment purposes to review a taxpayer’s material cross border activities transactions (other than transfer pricing) in the CAP year. Form 14234–F Post-Filing Representation by Taxpayer requires that the corporate officer, authorized to sign the tax return of the CAP taxpayer, attest that all material issues from the pre-filing review have been disclosed and resolved, and all resolved issues are reported as agreed on the company’s tax return. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses. Estimated Number of Respondents: 125. Estimated Number of Responses: 875. Estimated Time per Response: 5.35 hours. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 4,680 hours. Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Melody Braswell, Treasury PRA Clearance Officer.
