SUPPORTING STATEMENT

OMB #1545-0112

Interest Income

(Form 1099-INT)




  1. CIRCUMSTANCES NECESSITATING COLLECTION OF INFORMATION


IRC section 6049 requires payers of interest of $10 or more to file a return showing the aggregate amount of interest paid to a payee. Regulations sections 1.6049‑4 and 1.6049‑7 require Form 1099-INT to be used to report this information. IRC section 6041 and Regulations section 1.6041‑1 require persons paying interest (that is not covered under section 6049) of $600 or more in the course of their trades or businesses to report that interest on Form 1099-INT.


  1. USE OF DATA


IRS uses the form to verify compliance with the reporting rules and to verify that the recipient has included the proper amount of interest on his or her income tax return.

  1. ESTIMATED TOTAL ANNUAL COST BURDEN TO RESPONDENTS

As suggested by OMB, our Federal Register notice dated

May 24, 2013, requested public comments on estimates of cost burden that are not captured in the estimates of burden hours, i.e., estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. However, we did not receive any response from taxpayers on this subject. As a result, estimates of the cost burdens are not available at this time.


  1. ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT


The primary cost to the government consists of the cost of printing this form. We estimate that the cost of printing the form is $405,852.


  1. REASONS FOR CHANGE IN BURDEN


There are no significant changes to the form previously approved by OMB. However, based on updated filing estimates, the burden has decreased by 598,234 hours. This submission is being submitted for renewal purposes only.


  1. PLANS FOR TABULATION, STATISTICAL ANALYSIS AND PUBLICATION


Not applicable.


  1. REASONS WHY DISPLAYING THE OMB EXPIRATION DATE IS INAPPROPRIATE


See attachment.

Note: The following paragraph applies to all of the collections of information in this submission:


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 as long as 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.
