Changes have been made to the form to comply with filing requirements and regulations. Revenue procedure 2009-41, provides guidance under § 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code for an eligible entity that requests relief for a late classification election filed with the applicable IRS service center within 3 years and 75 days of the requested effective date of the eligible entity's classification election. The revenue procedure also provides guidance for those eligible entities that do not qualify for relief under this revenue procedure and that are required to request a letter ruling in order to request relief for a late entity classification election. The information will help the IRS to determine if an eligible entity meets the requirements of Section 4.01 of this revenue procedure. The collection of information is required to obtain permission to file a late entity classification election. The information will be reported on Form 8832 or submitted as part of a letter ruling request. Revenue procedure 2010-32, provides that, if the requirements of the revenue procedure are satisfied, the IRS will treat an election under § 301.7701–3(c) to classify a foreign eligible entity that is a qualified entity (as defined in section 3.02 of this revenue procedure) as a partnership or disregarded entity as an election to be treated as a partnership or disregarded entity (as appropriate) rather than as an association taxable as a corporation. Form 8832 will be used by qualified entities to seek relief under the revenue procedure. As a result of these changes, we estimate an annual increase in burden by 12,700 hours.
