liability of the QFT. The IRS uses the 

information on the form to determine 

that the trustee filed the proper return 

and paid the correct tax. 

Current Actions: There is a change to 

the existing collection. A line is being 

added to the form to include the elective 

payment election amount reported on 

Form 3800.

currently approved collection.

Estimated Number of Responses: 

15,000.

The following paragraph applies to all

unless the collection of information

as their contents may become material 

in the administration of any internal 

revenue law. Generally, tax returns and
