The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued a notice requesting public feedback on the continued collection of information related to tax deferments for individuals serving in combat zones or affected by Presidentially declared disasters. This effort, aligned with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, aims to assess whether these information collections are useful and reduce the paperwork burden for respondents. The IRS is particularly interested in comments on the necessity, accuracy, and potential improvements of these collections, encouraging the use of electronic submissions where possible. The deadline for comments is May 30, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The IRS is asking people to give their thoughts on how to make it easier for soldiers in war zones and people in areas hit by disasters to deal with their taxes, hoping to make the paperwork less of a headache. They want ideas on how to make the forms more helpful and accurate, and they’re open to getting these ideas by email or online.
