SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Gaming Industry Tip Rate Compliance Agreement.
OMB Number: 1545-1530.
Revenue Procedure Number: 2007-32.
Abstract: The Gaming Industry Tip Compliance Agreement (GITCA)
Program is designed to promote compliance by gaming industry employers
and employees with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating
to tip income and to reduce disputes under section 3121(q). Under the
GITCA Program, a gaming industry employer and the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) work together to reach a GITCA that establishes minimum
tip rates for participating tipped employees in specified occupational
categories, prescribes a threshold level of participation by the
employer's employees, and reduces compliance burdens for the employer
and enforcement burdens for the IRS. The collections of information
include the agreements, annual reports, recordkeeping requirements, and
model gaming tip agreements, which are detailed within Revenue
Procedure 2007-32, Exhibit 1--Gaming Industry Tip Compliance Agreement.
Current Actions: There is no change to the existing revenue
procedures or burden at this time.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 710.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 14 hours, 44 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 10,467 hours.
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
confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited
on: (a) whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e)
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
Approved: March 4, 2025.

Senior Tax Analyst.
