                    *e.g.,*
                     permitting electronic submission of responses. *Abstract:*

In order to renew their license, licensees must complete ATF Form 8 (5310.11) Part II to certify compliance with the provisions of the law for the FFL business. Information Collection (IC) OMB is being revised to include major material changes to the form, such as removal and addition of section items, grammatical changes (sentence rephrasing/statement modification) and instruction modification and clarification. Overview of This Information Collection 1. 
                    *Type of Information Collection:*

                     Form number: ATF Form 8 (5310.11) Part II. *Component:*

                    *Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as the obligation to respond:*
                     Affected Public: Individuals or households, Private Sector-for or not for profit institutions. The obligation to respond is mandatory per Title 18 U.S.C., Chapter 44. 5. 
                    *An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond:*
                     An estimated 33,500 respondents will respond to this collection once annually, and it will take each respondent approximately 30 minutes to complete their responses. 6. 
                    *An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated with the collection:*
                     The estimated annual public burden associated with this collection is 16,750 total hours, which is equal to 33,500 (total respondents) * 1 (# of response per respondent) * 0.5 (30 minutes). 7. 
                    *An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the collection, if applicable:*
                     No new cost is associated with this collection. However, the annual cost has increased due to a change in the postal rate from $0.63 during the last renewal in 2023, to $0.73 in 2024. Consequently, the new public cost burden will be reported as $24,455.00, which is equal to .73 (mailing cost per respondent) * 33,500 (# of respondents). Total Burden Hours
