Short Statement:
This is a new collection due to the amendment of Code sections 30C, 45, 45L, 45Q, 48, 48C, and 179D and the enactment of new Code sections 45U, 45V, 45Y, 45Z, and 48E. The proposed regulations would include reporting requirements that taxpayers provide a statement with the tax return that claims an increased credit or deduction amount that includes aggregate information as detailed in §1.45-12 and would include requirements to keep records sufficient to demonstrate that PWA requirements have been met. This requirement results in an increase in burden of 2,800 hours and 70 respondents (40 hours each). The proposed regulations would include third-party disclosures that include notifying laborers and mechanics of the applicable prevailing wage rates as detailed in §1.45-7. The proposed regulations would also include third party disclosures for taxpayers requesting the dispatch of apprentices from a registered apprenticeship program as detailed in §1.45-8. This requirement results in an increase in burden of 140,000 hours and 70,000 respondents (40 hours each). The total overall burden for this collection due to new statute is 142,800 hours and 70,070 respondents and responses.
