Abstract:
The collection of information is required by 26 CFR 301.6325-1(b)(5) for consideration of the United States discharging property from the federal tax lien and is required by 26 CFR 301.6325-1(d)(4) for consideration that the United States subordinate its interest in property. These forms will provide guidance to ensure proper documentation is submitted to the Agency.
Emergency Justfication:
Publication 783 provides instructions to taxpayers, taxpayer representatives, and third parties claiming ownership of property on the documentation IRS needs to determine if a certificate of discharge from federal tax lien should be issued. Form 14135 has been developed to provide applicant proper guidance in submitting the correct information to request discharge of the federal lien. Publication 784 provides instructions on the information IRS needs to determine if a Certificate of Subordination of Federal Tax Lien should be issued. Form 14134 has been developed to provide applicants proper guidance to determine if a Certificate of Subordination of Federal Tax Lien should be issued. We will also issue a new 60-day FRN once the forms are released to the public. Taxpayers must receive the guidance outlined in these documents as soon as possible. Current methods of educating the public have resulted in inaccurate requests and additional time and resources to correct the mistakes. Failure to submit these forms could result in an adverse financial impact on the taxpaying public and hinder the mission of the IRS. Our goal is to make these forms available as quickly as possible but have created a target date of June 15th. Thus, we are requesting an emergency Paperwork Reduction Act review by June 15, 2010.
