1010.710 through 31 CFR 1010.717).
OMB Control Number: 1506–0050.
Report Number: Not applicable.
Abstract: FinCEN is issuing this
notice to renew the OMB control
number for the administrative rulings
regulations.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit institutions, non-profit
institutions, and individuals.
Type of Review: Renewal without
change of a currently approved
information collection.
Frequency: As required.
Estimated Number of Requests
Annually: 33 requests.6
Estimated Recordkeeping Burden:
FinCEN receives approximately 33
administrative ruling requests per year.

This results in an estimated total annual
burden of 66 hours (33 administrative
ruling requests multiplied by two hours
per request).
An agency may not conduct or

unless the collection of information
