SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Annual Certification of a Residential Rental Project.
    OMB Number: 1545-1038.
    Form Number: 8703.
    Abstract: Form 8703 is used by the operator of a residential rental 
project to provide annual information that the IRS will use to 
determine whether a project continues to be a qualified residential 
rental project under Internal Revenue Code section 142(d). If so, and 
certain other requirements are met, bonds issued in connection with the 
project are considered ``exempt facility bonds'' and the interest paid 
on them is not taxable to the recipient.
    Current Actions: There are no changes in the paperwork burden 
previously approved by OMB.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 6,000.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 12 hours, 47 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 76,620.
    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 displays a valid OMB control number.
    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 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. 
Comments will be 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 has 
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 be collected; (d) 
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on or 
other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or 
start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of 
services to provide information.

    Approved: February 14, 2023.
