This form
instructs taxpayers to attach it to their individual tax return, so
the portion of the burden imposed on individual taxpayers should be
approved under OMB Control Number 1545-0074. In its next submission
under this OMB Control Number, the agency is instructed to ensure
that the estimate of burden associated with this Control Number
includes only the burden imposed on non-individual taxpayers. If
the agency finds that the current burden estimate includes burden
imposed on individual taxpayers, it must immediately submit an
adjustment request that eliminates this double-counting. Also, in
the future, changes in burden due to corrections of previous
estimates should be accounted for as adjustments, not program
changes. In this approval, OMB is therefore accounting for the
750,332-hour increase as an adjustment.

Internal Revenue Code section 6654
imposes a penalty for failure to pay estimated tax. These forms are
used by taxpayers to determine whether they are subject to the
penalty and to compute the penalty if it applies. The Service uses
this information to determine whether the taxpayer is subject to
the penalty, and to verify the penalty amount.
The total burden was increased
as a result of errors in previous computations. The total burden
increase is 750,332 hours. ROCIS contained incorrect "Response"
information. That to is shown as an increase of 283,329
responses.
