Abstract: These forms are used by 

business and individual taxpayers to 

enroll in the Electronic Federal Tax 

Payment System (EFTPS). EFTPS is an 

electronic remittance processing system 

that the Service uses to accept 

electronically transmitted federal tax 

payments. EFTPS (1) establishes and 

maintains a taxpayer data base which 

includes entity information from the 

taxpayers or their banks, (2) initiates the 

transfer of the tax payment amount from 

the taxpayer’s bank account, (3) 

validates the entity information and 

selected elements for each taxpayer, and 

(4) electronically transmits taxpayer 

payment data to the IRS. 

Current Actions: Form 12252 was 

obsoleted, resulting in a decrease of 167 

burden hours. The new burden hours 

are 766,446.

currently approved collection.

or other for-profit organizations, and

Hours: 766,446. 

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

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
