SUSPENSION OF MISCELLANEOUS ITEMIZED DEDUCTIONS
On pages 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 we
added a new Box 5 “Section 199A REIT dividends” and a $ sign. This
new box is needed to help the recipients calculate the deduction
they may be allowed under Sec 199A as qualified business income. As
a result boxes 5 through 14 were renumbered to 6 through 15. This
has increased the burden by a total of 1,566,790 total annual
hours. There is also a change in the updated filing estimates in
response to this Form. Filings decreased from 87,476,600 to
78,339,500 a decrease of 9,137,100 filings and resulting in a
decrease of total burden hours of 3,563,469. The decrease in
estimated filing figures offsets the increase in burden, resulting
in a total burden decrease of (1,996,679) hours.
