There is only room on the card for the notice regarding the paperwork reduction act, who are they kidding?

By the way, the paper work reduction act was passed with Reagan and ignored for the most part but still operates an expensive office rubber stamping all govt requests and forms instead of asking , “is this necessary?”

But they do prepare nice reports on the time burden on tax payers but it doesn’t change anything...…….

The plain writing act of 2010 is also interesting:

The Paperwork Reduction Act mandates that all federal government agencies receive approval from OMB—in the form of a “control number”—before promulgating a paper form, website, survey or electronic submission that will impose an information collection burden on the general public.[18] The term “burden” is defined as anything beyond “that necessary to identify the respondent, the date, the respondent’s address, and the nature of the instrument.”[19] No one may be penalized for refusing an information collection request that does not display a valid control number.[20] Once obtained, approval must be renewed every three years.[21]
