Section 6324A permits the executor of a decedent's estate to elect a lien on section 6166 property in favor of the United States in lieu of a bond or personal liability if an election under section 6166 was made and the executor files an agreement under section 6323A(c). Form 13925 lists the information required in Regulation section 301.6324A-1(b)(1) and was drafted to help taxpayers file liens that will be valid under section 6324A and the regulations.

There has been a decrease in the estimated number of responses and total annual burden hours, and an increase in the time estimate per response. The number of responses is based on the agencies most recent filings of form 13925 (500 responses/respondents). Form 13925 was added as an instrument to this ICR in effort to reduce duplicate reporting (the form was previously reported under OMB Control Number 1545-2109). With the development of the form, the agency recognized that the time to comply with the regulation and complete the form would take approximately 1 hour versus the original estimate of 15 minutes. The agency took into consideration the time to glean information from Form 706 and the current appraisal or valuation documentation which resulted in the time per response increase. The new decreased estimate of 500 responses (based on previous year filings) and the 1 hour time per response (increase of 45 minutes) results in an overall decrease of 8150 total hours for this collection of information (from 8,650 to 500 hours).
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
