of its high degree of usefulness in criminal, tax, or regulatory
investigations or procedures or in the conduct of intelligence or
counter intelligence activities, including analysis, to protect
against international terrorism. Respondents include all United
States persons who have a financial interest in or signature or
other authority over foreign financial accounts with an aggregate

the lack of burden numbers. The originators need this form approved
ASAP to accomodate the tax paying public for this filing
season.

form, now under the charge of the IRS. It is considered a new
collection.
