SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Tax-Exempt Organization Complaint (Referral).
OMB Number: 1545-New.
Document Number: 13909.
Abstract: This request covers the taxpayer burden with Form 13909,
Tax-Exempt Organization Complaint (Referral). Form 13909 is used by
individuals to submit a complaint about tax-exempt organizations. The
information provided on this form will help the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) determine if there has been a violation of federal tax
law.
Current Actions: Request for OMB approval of an existing
Information Collection (IC) tool in use without a proper OMB approval
number.
Type of Review: Existing IC in use that does not contain an OMB
control number.
Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions, and Federal, State,
local or tribal governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 8,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 46 min.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 6,400.
The following paragraph applies to all the collections of
information covered by this notice:
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of
information displays a valid OMB control number.
Books or records relating to a collection of information must be
retained if their contents may become material in the administration of
any internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return
information are
[[Page 45274]]
confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
Desired Focus of Comments: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is
particularly interested in comments that:
<bullet> Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility.
<bullet> Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used.
<bullet> Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
<bullet> Minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond, including using appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., by permitting electronic
submissions of responses.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and/or included in the ICR for OMB approval of the extension of the
information collection; they will also become a matter of public
record.
Approved: July 10, 2023.
Ronald J. Durbala,
IRS Tax Analyst.
