Terms of Clearance:
Approved through August 1992 subject to the condition that worksheets one through six be retained in the instructions and not be moved to the main form. We find that the proposed increase of over seven million hours to move the worksheets is contrary to the requirement of 5 CFR 1320.4(b)(1) that "the collection of information is the least burdensome necessary for the proper performance of the agency's functions...." The reason given for moving the worksheets to the main form is that "...a number of taxpayers felt that if they changed accountants that they may not have access to the prior year worksheets This argument is not convincing. An action taken for "a number of taxpayers" appears outweighed by the taxpayers who submit nearly 15 million responses annually. Moreover, taxpayers can negotiate directly with their accountants to ensure that all their tax records are accessible. We commend IRS for the removal of the worksheet for significant participation in passive activities from the instructions in order to simplify the instructions for the benefit of most filers. You may omit printing the expiration date on this form. Also, you may continue to use previous versions of this form.
