Internal Revenue Code section 6654 imposes a penalty for failure to pay estimated tax. These forms are used by taxpayers to determine whether they are subject to the penalty and to compute the penalty if it applies. The Service uses this information to determine whether the taxpayer is subject to the penalty, and to verify the penalty amount.
US Code:
26 USC 6654
Name of Law: Failure by individual to pay estimated income tax
The change in burden resulted from an adjustment to estimates made by the Department in the decreased number of responses based on its most recent filing data. In prior submissions form 2210 was entered as two forms a long and short form. There were two methods (a regular and short method) embedded into one form. The current revision which updated the design of the form no longer specifies a short or long method; the filers are counted by type of filers (not short or long method). These estimates resulted in a decrease in filers, from 125,000, to 80,150 and total annual burden hours decreased from 496,337 to 109,857.
