Abstract:
Form 8849 requires emergency approval so that the IRS is not monetarily penalized by its contractor for missing its ok-to-print. Also this form must be sent to the conreactor timely so that it can be printed in time to allow taxpayers to file the form to claim any refunds due of excise taxes. Because the ok-to-print date for this form is October 6, 2006, we are requesting approval by October 6, 2006.

Short Statement:
Form 8849 was revised. And Schedules 1, 2, 3, and 6 were all updated. IRS also added a new Schedule 8 to the form, too. Schedule 4 was obsoleted, Schedule 5 had no revisions, and there is no Schedule 7. (Schedule 7 is being held in reserve.) These changes were the result of the Energy Incentive Act of 2005, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity (SAFETY) Act, and the Pension Protection Act of 2006.
