Dear Sir:

We have not been able to process your 1996 federal tax return because you did not include Form 8395-L, Paperwork Reduction Act Notice Receipt Acknowledgment. Please complete this form and send it with your amended 1996 return. If you need more time to complete your Form 8395-L, Paperwork Reduction Act Notice Receipt Acknowledgment, you may file Form 109845-P, Extension of Time to File Paperwork Reduction Act Notice Receipt Acknowledgment. Please provide all relevant documentation to demonstrate the need for an extension.

Cordially Yours,
Your Friends at the IRS.
