Abstract: The Gaming Industry Tip Compliance Agreement (GITCA) Program is designed to promote compliance by gaming industry employers and employees with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to tip income and to reduce disputes under section 3121(q). Under the GITCA Program, a gaming industry employer and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) work together to reach a GITCA that establishes minimum tip rates for participating tipped employees in specified occupational categories, prescribes a threshold level of participation by the employer's employees, and reduces compliance burdens for the employer and enforcement burdens for the IRS. The collections of information include the agreements, annual reports, recordkeeping requirements, and model gaming tip agreements, which are detailed within Revenue Procedure 2007-32, Exhibit 1-Gaming Industry Tip Compliance Agreement.
Current Actions: There is no change to the existing revenue procedures or burden at this time.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 710.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 14 hours, 44 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 10,467 hours.
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.
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.
