The proposed regulations provide guidance regarding employer contributions to Trump accounts under section 128 of the Internal Revenue Code and nondiscrimination requirements for dependent care assistance programs under section 129. The regulations require employers maintaining these programs to establish written plans, provide employee notifications and certifications, maintain records, furnish required statements, and communicate specified information necessary to administer and demonstrate compliance with the statutory requirements.
The Department of the Treasury (âTreasuryâ) requests emergency processing under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507(j) and 5 C.F.R. § 1320.13, for an information collection request (OMB Control No. 1545-2340) associated with implementation of the Trump Accounts program established under sections 530A and 128 of the Internal Revenue Code, as enacted by Public Law 119-21, commonly known as the One, Big, Beautiful Bill Act (âOBBBAâ).
Specifically, Treasury requests emergency approval for the Trump Accounts Employer Portal, which is scheduled to launch on November 2, 2026.
The Employer Portal is necessary to enable employers to establish their participation in the Trump Accounts program, validate the existence of employees' or dependents' Trump Accounts, and submit remittance files to support the accurate allocation of employer contributions to the intended beneficiaries. These functions are essential to facilitating employer contributions while reducing the risk of rejected or returned funds and ensuring contributions are properly administered.
Treasury respectfully requests that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve this emergency request no later than October 30, 2026.
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).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
