Form: No Form associated with this collection.
Title of Information Collection: Foreign Tax Reporting by USAID
Assistance Recipients.
Type of Review: New Collection.
Purpose
The Foreign Tax Reporting collection is needed to comply with
current statutory requirements. Sec. 7013, Public Law 116-260, 143
Stat. 1182, the annual Department of State, Foreign Operations, and
Related Programs Appropriations Act (SFOAA), and similar provisions in
prior years' SFOAAs, mandate that agencies take certain actions to
prevent taxation of assistance provided with funds appropriated in an
SFOAA, or to obtain full reimbursement of all taxes paid. Since 2003,
USAID has required these reports in its grants and cooperative
agreements but has not previously requested OMB approval for the
information collection. The reporting requirement was revised in 2014
(in Sec. 7013, Pub. L. 113-76, 128 Stat. 5) to redefine the taxes that
must be reported, and USAID is in the process of revising our
assistance policy and required procedures in an update to Automated
Directives System (ADS 303) Grants and Cooperative Agreements to Non-
Governmental Organizations.
Respondents: U.S. and foreign recipients of direct grants and
cooperative agreements carrying out their award activities overseas.
Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 4,800.
Annual burden hours per respondent: 1.
Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 4,800.
Luis Rivera,
Acting Senior Procurement Executive, U.S. Agency for International
Development.
