SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Passive Activity Loss Limitations.
    OMB Number: 1545-1008.
    Form Number: 8582.
    Abstract: Internal Revenue Code section 469 limits the passive 
activity losses that a taxpayer may deduct. The passive activity losses 
from passive activities, to the extent that they exceed income from 
passive activities, cannot be deducted against nonpassive income. Form 
8582 is used to figure the passive activity loss allowed and the actual 
loss to be reported on the tax returns.
    Current Actions: There is no change in the paperwork burden 
previously approved by OMB.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households, estates, and trusts.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 250,000.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 3 hours, 30 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 875,000.
    The following paragraph applies to all of the collections of 
information covered by this notice:
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of 
information displays a valid OMB control number.
    Books or records relating to a collection of information must be 
retained as long as their contents may become material in the 
administration of any internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and 
tax return information are confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
    Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice 
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information 
is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the 
accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of 
information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of 
operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide 
information.

    Approved: February 1, 2021.
