    OMB Number: 1545-1520.
    Revenue Procedure Number: 2024-4.
    Abstract: Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Sec.  601.201(a)(1)) provides 
that it is the practice of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to answer 
inquiries of individuals and organizations, whenever appropriate in the 
interest of sound tax administration, as to their status for tax 
purposes and as to the tax effects of their acts or transactions. Under 
this revenue procedure 2024-4 (and successor guidance), taxpayers can 
request determination letters and letter rulings from the Commissioner, 
Tax Exempt and Government Entities, Employee Plans Office (``Employee 
Plans'') on how the tax laws apply to them. Employee Plans requires 
information from taxpayers in order to process these requests.
    Current Actions: There is no change to the burden previously 
approved.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement without change of a previously 
approved collection.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit organizations, not-for-profit institutions, farms, and state, 
local or tribal governments.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 8,733.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 2 hrs., 5 min.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 18,151.
    The following paragraph applies to all 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 if 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.
    Desired Focus of Comments: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is 
particularly interested in comments that:
    <bullet> Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    <bullet> Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
    <bullet> Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
    <bullet> Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including using appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., by permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and/or included in the ICR for OMB approval of the extension of the 
information collection; they will also become a matter of public 
record.

    Approved: January 31, 2024.
