The information listed on TTB F
5000.9, Personnel Questionnaire - Alcohol and Tobacco Products,
enables TTB to determine whether or not an applicant for an alcohol
or tobacco permit meets the minimum qualifications. The form
identifies the individual, residence, business background,
financial sources for the business and criminal record.
A reduction of 50 burden hours
is due to respondents use of the Permits ON Line (PONL) which
allows electronic submission of applications. This program change
is attributed to agency discretion.
