Abstract: IRC section 6012 requires that an annual income tax return be filed for estates and trusts. Data is used to determine that the estates, trusts, and beneficiaries file the proper returns and paid the correct tax. The various schedules (Schedule D, I, J, and K-I) are used in the collection of information under the various authorizing statutes seen below (Legal Statutes). The worksheets are used to figure various taxes and deductions. Form 1041-V allows the Internal Revenue Service to process the payment more accurately and efficiently. The IRS strongly encourages the use of Form 1041-V, but there is no penalty if it is not used. The FAQs posted to IRS.gov will assist taxpayers in fulfilling their filing obligations for 2017.

Emergency Justfication: PL 115-97, section 14103 has a retroactive effective date of 2017. This section is an essential part of an administrative priority to collect deferred foreign income from US and foreign partnerships and corporations. Due to a lack of resources, the IRS must inform taxpayers how to calculate and report the deferred foreign income on their 2017 returns without disrupting information technology programs. As a result FAQs were developed to alert taxpayers how and where to report this income on their 2017 return. This is seen as a priority for the Internal Revenue Service as this is a high revenue raiser. A critical part of this effort includes alerting taxpayers of their filing obligations and educating them on how and where this would be reported. If clearance of the is delayed, in addition to delaying this high profile initiative, taxpayers will not be able to fulfill their filing obligations and the IRS will lose out on a revenue raiser section under PL 115-97. We ask that OMB approve the collection of information on an expedited basis. LB&I and and the Chief Counsel’s Office of the IRS have consulted in drafting the guidance in order to take all practicable steps to minimize the burden of the collection of information.

Short Statement: PL 115-97, section 14103 has a retroactive effective date of 2017. This section is an essential part of an administrative priority to collect deferred foreign income from US and foreign partnerships and corporations. Due to a lack of resources, the IRS must inform taxpayers how to calculate and report the deferred foreign income on their 2017 returns without disrupting information technology programs. As a result FAQs were developed to alert taxpayers how and where to report this income on their 2017 return. This is seen as a priority for the Internal Revenue Service as this is a high revenue raiser. A critical part of this effort includes alerting taxpayers of their filing obligations and educating them on how and where this would be reported. This requirement results in an overall burden increase of 60,000 (307,784,800 to 307,844,800), as the agency estimates that there will be 5,000 respondents (increase from 9,428,703 to 9,433,703) and that it will take approximately 12 hours per respondent to comply with the requirement.
