SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Waiver of 60-Day Rollover Requirement.
OMB Number: 1545-2269.
Revenue Procedure Number: Revenue Procedure 2016-47.
Abstract: Revenue Procedure 2016-47 describes a program for self-
certification by taxpayers who missed the 60-day statutory requirement
for making a rollover contribution to a qualified plan or individual
retirement arrangement (IRA). Upon receipt of a self-certification, a
plan administrator of IRA trustee may accept the contribution and treat
it as having satisfied the requirements for a waiver of the 60-day
requirement. Currently, the only way for a taxpayer to obtain a waiver
of the 60-day requirement is to apply to the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) for a favorable ruling, which is issued by the Tax Exempt and
Government Entities Division (TE/GE). The fee for a ruling is $10,000.
The program outlined in this revenue procedure permits taxpayers to
receive the benefits of a waiver without paying a user fee.
Current Actions: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 150.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 3 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 450.
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

information displays a valid OMB control number. Books or records
relating to a collection of information must be retained as long as

[[Page 79097]]
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.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
