documentation; and

expense to the respondent to find and
secure such preparers for assistance and
the amount that paid preparers charge
for their services.
In addition, to truly be helpful to the
improvement of this form and the
program that oversees the services
associated with this information
collection written comments and
suggestions from the public and affected
agencies should address one or more of
the following four points:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

clarity of the information to be
collected; and
