currently approved collection.
(2) The Title of the Form/Collection: Application for Tax-Exempt
Transfer of Firearm and Registration to Special Occupational Taxpayer.
(3) The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of

Abstract: The Application for Tax-Exempt Transfer of Firearm and
Registration to Special Occupational Taxpayer--ATF Form 3 (5320.3) form
is used by Federal firearms licensees, to apply for the transfer and
registration of a National Firearms Act (NFA) firearm that is subject
to exemption from transfer tax, as provided by 26 U.S.C. 5852(d).
(5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated
130,289 respondents will utilize the form annually, and it will take
each respondent approximately 30 minutes to complete their responses.
(6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with
this collection is 65,145 hours, which is equal to 130,289 (# of
respondents) * 1 (# of responses per respondent) * .5 (30 minutes or
the total time taken to complete each response).
(7) An Explanation of the Change in Estimates: The adjustments to
this information collection include a decrease in the total responses
by 47,211. Consequently, the annual burden hours has also reduced by
23,605. However, the public cost increased to $ 4,292, because some
respondents completed and mailed their applications to ATF for
processing, although this collection can be electronically submitted.
