SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Internal Revenue Service (IRS)

    These are forms used by tax-exempt organizations. These include 
Forms 990, 990-EZ, 990-N, 990-PF, 990-T, and related forms and 
schedules tax-exempt organizations attach to their returns. In 
addition, there are numerous Treasury Decisions and guidance documents 
that are covered by the burden estimate provided in this notice.

Taxpayer Compliance Burden

    Tax compliance burden is defined as the time and money taxpayers 
spend to comply with their tax filing responsibilities. Time-related 
activities include recordkeeping, tax planning, gathering tax 
materials, learning about the law and what you need to do, and 
completing and submitting the return. Out-of-pocket costs include 
expenses such as purchasing tax software, paying a third-party 
preparer, and printing and postage. Tax compliance burden does not 
include a taxpayer's tax liability, economic inefficiencies caused by 
sub-optimal choices related to tax deductions or credits, or 
psychological costs.
