Instructions for Schedule A—Real Estate Enter the amount of the mortgage under

‘‘Description’’ on this schedule. The unpaid amount of

the mortgage may be deducted on Schedule K. If the

decedent’s estate is NOT liable for the amount of the

mortgage, report only the value of the equity of

redemption (or value of the property less the

indebtedness) in the value column as part of the gross

estate. Do not enter any amount less than zero. Do not

deduct the amount of indebtedness on Schedule K.

If the total gross estate contains any real estate, you

must complete Schedule A and file it with the return.

On Schedule A list real estate the decedent owned or

had contracted to purchase. Number each parcel in

the left-hand column.

Describe the real estate in enough detail so that the

IRS can easily locate it for inspection and valuation.

For each parcel of real estate, report the area and, if

the parcel is improved, describe the improvements. For

city or town property, report the street and number,

ward, subdivision, block and lot, etc. For rural property,

report the township, range, landmarks, etc.

Also list on Schedule A real property the decedent

contracted to purchase. Report the full value of the

property and not the equity in the value column.

Deduct the unpaid part of the purchase price on

Schedule K.

Report the value of real estate without reducing it for

homestead or other exemption, or the value of dower,

curtesy, or a statutory estate created instead of dower

or curtesy.

If any item of real estate is subject to a mortgage for

which the decedent’s estate is liable, that is, if the

indebtedness may be charged against other property

of the estate that is not subject to that mortgage, or if

the decedent was personally liable for that mortgage,

you must report the full value of the property in the

value column.

Explain how the reported values were determined

and attach copies of any appraisals.

Schedule A—Page 5
Form 706 (Rev. 8-93)

If the skip person received interests in specially valued

property that were shown on Schedule R-1, show these interests

on the Schedule R, Parts 2 and 3 worksheets, as appropriate.

Do not use Schedule R-1 as a worksheet.

Instructions for Schedule A-1.—Section

2032A Valuation

The election to value certain farm and closely held business

property at its special use value is made by checking “Yes” to

line 2 of Part 3, Elections by the Executor, Form 706. Schedule

A-1 is used to report the additional information that must be

submitted to support this election. In order to make a valid

election, you must complete Schedule A-1 and attach all of the

required statements and appraisals.

Completing the Special Use Value Worksheets.—On lines 2–4

and 6, enter -0-.

Completing the Fair Market Value Worksheets.—Lines 2 and

3, fixed taxes and other charges.—If valuing the interests at their

fair market value (instead of special use value) causes any of

these taxes and charges to increase, enter the increased amount

(only) on these lines and attach an explanation of the increase.

Otherwise, enter -0-.

For definitions and additional information concerning special

use valuation, see section 2032A and the related regulations.

Line 6—GST exemption.—If you completed line 10 of Schedule

R, Part 1, enter on line 6 the amount shown for the skip person

on the line 10 special use allocation schedule you attached to

Schedule R. If you did not complete line 10 of Schedule R, Part

1, enter -0- on line 6.

Part 1.—Type of Election

Estate and GST Tax Elections.—If you elect special use

valuation for the estate tax, you must also elect special use

valuation for the GST tax and vice versa.

You must value each specific property interest at the same

value for GST tax purposes that you value it at for estate tax

purposes.

Total GST Tax Savings.—For each skip person, subtract the tax

amount on line 10, Part 2 of the special use value worksheet

from the tax amount on line 10, Part 2 of the fair market value

worksheet. This difference is the skip person’s total GST tax

savings.

Protective Election.—To make the protective election described

in the separate instructions for line 2 of Part 3, Elections by the

Executor, you must check this box, enter the decedent’s name

and social security number in the spaces provided at the top of

Schedule A-1, and complete line 1 and column A of lines 3 and

4 of Part 2. For purposes of the protective election, list on line 3

all of the real property that passes to the qualified heirs even

though some of the property will be shown on line 2 when the

additional notice of election is subsequently filed. You need not

complete columns B–D of lines 3 and 4. You need not complete

any other line entries on Schedule A-1. Completing Schedule

A-1 as described above constitutes a Notice of Protective

Election as described in Regulations section 20.2032A-8(b).

Part 3.—Agreement to Special Valuation Under

Section 2032A

The agreement to special valuation by persons with an interest

in property is required under section 2032A(a)(1)(B) and (d)(2)

and must be signed by all parties who have any interest in the

property being valued based on its qualified use as of the date

of the decedent’s death.

An interest in property is an interest that, as of the date of the

decedent’s death, can be asserted under applicable local law so

as to affect the disposition of the specially valued property by

the estate. Any person who at the decedent’s death has any

such interest in the property, whether present or future, or

vested or contingent, must enter into the agreement. Included

are owners of remainder and executory interests; the holders of

general or special powers of appointment; beneficiaries of a gift

over in default of exercise of any such power; joint tenants and

holders of similar undivided interests when the decedent held

only a joint or undivided interest in the property or when only an

undivided interest is specially valued; and trustees of trusts and

representatives of other entities holding title to, or holding any

interests in the property. An heir who has the power under local

law to caveat (challenge) a will and thereby affect disposition of

the property is not, however, considered to be a person with an

interest in property under section 2032A solely by reason of that

right. Likewise, creditors of an estate are not such persons

solely by reason of their status as creditors.

Part 2.—Notice of Election

Line 10.—Because the special use valuation election creates a

potential tax liability for the recapture tax of section 2032A(c),

you must list each person who receives an interest in the

specially valued property on Schedule A-1. If there are more

than eight persons who receive interests, use an additional sheet

that follows the format of line 10. In the columns “Fair market

value” and “Special use value,” you should enter the total

respective values of all the specially valued property interests

received by each person.

GST Tax Savings

If any person required to enter into the agreement either

desires that an agent act for him or her or cannot legally bind

himself or herself due to infancy or other incompetency, or due

to death before the election under section 2032A is timely

exercised, a representative authorized by local law to bind the

person in an agreement of this nature may sign the agreement

Because the GST tax depends on the executor’s allocation of on his or her behalf.

the GST exemption and the grandchild exclusion, the skip

person who receives the interests is unable to compute this GST

tax savings. Therefore, for each skip person who receives an

interest in specially valued property, you must attach worksheets

showing the total GST tax savings attributable to all of that

person’s interests in specially valued property.

The Internal Revenue Service will contact the agent

designated in the agreement on all matters relating to continued

qualification under section 2032A of the specially valued real

property and on all matters relating to the special lien arising

under section 6324B. It is the duty of the agent as

attorney-in-fact for the parties with interests in the specially

valued property to furnish the IRS with any requested

information and to notify the IRS of any disposition or cessation

of qualified use of any part of the property.

How To Compute the GST Tax Savings.—Before computing

each skip person’s GST tax savings, you must complete

Schedules R and R-1 for the entire estate (using the special use

values).

For each skip person, you must complete two Schedules R

(Parts 2 and 3 only) as worksheets, one showing the interests in

specially valued property received by the skip person at their

special use value and one showing the same interests at their

fair market value. Schedule A-1—Page 6

To compute the additional GST tax due upon disposition (or

cessation of qualified use) of the property, each “skip person”

(as defined in the instructions to Schedule R) who receives an

interest in the specially valued property must know the total GST

tax savings on all of the interests in specially valued property

received. This GST tax savings is the difference between the

total GST tax that was imposed on all of the interests in

specially valued property received by the skip person valued at

their special use value and the total GST tax that would have

been imposed on the same interests received by the skip person

had they been valued at their fair market value.

Schedule D—Page 15

(See the instructions on the reverse side.)
Form 706 (Rev. 8-93)

Instructions for Schedule D.—Insurance on ● The power to surrender or cancel the policy;

the Decedent’s Life ● The power to assign the policy or to revoke an

assignment;

If there was any insurance on the decedent’s life,

whether or not included in the gross estate, you must

complete Schedule D and file it with the return.

● The power to pledge the policy for a loan;

● The power to obtain from the insurer a loan

against the surrender value of the policy; Insurance you must include on Schedule D.—Under

section 2042 you must include in the gross estate: ● A reversionary interest if the value of the

reversionary interest was more than 5% of the

value of the policy immediately before the

decedent died. (An interest in an insurance policy

is considered a reversionary interest if, for

example, the proceeds become payable to the

insured’s estate or payable as the insured directs

if the beneficiary dies before the insured.)

● Insurance on the decedent’s life receivable by or

for the benefit of the estate; and

● Insurance on the decedent’s life receivable by

beneficiaries other than the estate, as described

below.

The term ‘‘insurance’’ refers to life insurance of every

description, including death benefits paid by fraternal

beneficiary societies operating under the lodge system,

and death benefits paid under no-fault automobile

insurance policies if the no-fault insurer was

unconditionally bound to pay the benefit in the event

of the insured’s death.

Life insurance not includible in the gross estate

under section 2042 may be includible under some

other section of the Code. For example, a life

insurance policy could be transferred by the decedent

in such a way that it would be includible in the gross

estate under section 2036, 2037, or 2038. (See the

instructions to Schedule G for a description of these

sections.)

Insurance in favor of the estate.—Include on

Schedule D the full amount of the proceeds of

insurance on the life of the decedent receivable by the

executor or otherwise payable to or for the benefit of

the estate. Insurance in favor of the estate includes

insurance used to pay the estate tax, and any other

taxes, debts, or charges that are enforceable against

the estate. The manner in which the policy is drawn is

immaterial as long as there is an obligation, legally

binding on the beneficiary, to use the proceeds to pay

taxes, debts, or charges. You must include the full

amount even though the premiums or other

consideration may have been paid by a person other

than the decedent.

Completing the Schedule

You must list every policy of insurance on the life of

the decedent, whether or not it is included in the gross

estate.

Under ‘‘Description’’ list:

● Name of the insurance company and

● Number of the policy.

For every policy of life insurance listed on the

schedule, you must request a statement on Form 712,

Life Insurance Statement, from the company that 

issued the policy. Attach the Form 712 to the back of

Schedule D. Insurance receivable by beneficiaries other than the

estate.—Include on Schedule D the proceeds of all

insurance on the life of the decedent not receivable by

or for the benefit of the decedent’s estate if the

decedent possessed at death any of the incidents of

ownership, exercisable either alone or in conjunction

with any person.

If part or all of the policy proceeds are not included

in the gross estate, you must explain why they were

not included.

● The right of the insured or estate to its economic

benefits;

● The power to change the beneficiary;

Schedule D—Page 16

Part 2.—Other joint interests.—All joint interests that

were not entered in Part 1 must be entered in Part 2.

Instructions for Schedule E.—Jointly

Owned Property

For each item of property, enter the appropriate

letter A, B, C, etc., from line 2a to indicate the name

and address of the surviving co-tenant.

You must complete Schedule E and file it with the

return if the decedent owned any joint property at the

time of death, whether or not the decedent’s interest is

includible in the gross estate. Under “Description,” describe the property as

required in the instructions for Schedules A, B, C, and

F for the type of property involved. Enter on this schedule all property of whatever kind

or character, whether real estate, personal property, or

bank accounts, in which the decedent held at the time

of death an interest either as a joint tenant with right to

survivorship or as a tenant by the entirety.

In the “Percentage includible” column, enter the

percentage of the total value of the property that you

intend to include in the gross estate.

Do not list on this schedule property that the

decedent held as a tenant in common, but report the

value of the interest on Schedule A if real estate, or on

the appropriate schedule if personal property. Similarly,

community property held by the decedent and spouse

should be reported on the appropriate Schedules A

through I. The decedent’s interest in a partnership

should not be entered on this schedule unless the

partnership interest itself is jointly owned. Solely

owned partnership interests should be reported on

Schedule F, “Other Miscellaneous Property.”

Generally, you must include the full value of the

jointly owned property in the gross estate. However,

the full value should not be included if you can show

that a part of the property originally belonged to the

other tenant or tenants and was never received or

acquired by the other tenant or tenants from the

decedent for less than adequate and full consideration

in money or money’s worth, or unless you can show

that any part of the property was acquired with

consideration originally belonging to the surviving joint

tenant or tenants. In this case, you may exclude from

the value of the property an amount proportionate to

the consideration furnished by the other tenant or

tenants. Relinquishing or promising to relinquish dower,

curtesy, or statutory estate created instead of dower or

curtesy, or other marital rights in the decedent’s

property or estate is not consideration in money or

money’s worth. See the Schedule A instructions for the

value to show for real property that is subject to a

mortgage.

Part 1.—Qualified joint interests held by decedent

and spouse.—Under section 2040(b)(2), a joint interest

is a qualified joint interest if the decedent and the

surviving spouse held the interest as:

● Tenants by the entirety, or

● Joint tenants with right of survivorship if the

decedent and the decedent’s spouse are the only

joint tenants.

Interests that meet either of the two requirements

above should be entered in Part 1. Joint interests that

do not meet either of the two requirements above

should be entered in Part 2.

If the property was acquired by the decedent and

another person or persons by gift, bequest, devise, or

inheritance as joint tenants, and their interests are not

otherwise specified by law, include only that part of the

value of the property that is figured by dividing the full

value of the property by the number of joint tenants.

Under “Description,” describe the property as

required in the instructions for Schedules A, B, C, and

F for the type of property involved. For example, jointly

held stocks and bonds should be described using the

rules given in the instructions to Schedule B.

If you believe that less than the full value of the

entire property is includible in the gross estate for tax

purposes, you must establish the right to include the

smaller value by attaching proof of the extent, origin,

and nature of the decedent’s interest and the

interest(s) of the decedent’s co-tenant or co-tenants.

Under “Alternate value” and “Value at date of

death,” enter the full value of the property.

Note: You cannot claim the special treatment under

section 2040(b) for property held jointly by a decedent

and a surviving spouse who is not a U.S. citizen. You

must report these joint interests on Part 2 of Schedule

E, not Part 1.

In the “Includible alternate value” and “Includible

value at date of death” columns, you should enter only

the values that you believe are includible in the gross

estate.

these situations, you should report the full economic

value of the policy on Schedule F. See Rev. Rul.

78-137, 1978-1 C.B. 280 for details.

All partnership interests should be reported on

Schedule F unless the partnership interest, itself, is

jointly owned. Jointly owned partnership interests

Instructions for Schedule J.—

Funeral Expenses and Expenses Incurred

in Administering Property Subject to

Claims

General.—You must complete and file Schedule J if

you claim a deduction on item 11 of Part 5,

Recapitulation.

On Schedule J, itemize funeral expenses and

expenses incurred in administering property subject to

claims. List the names and addresses of persons to

whom the expenses are payable and describe the

nature of the expense. Do not list expenses incurred

in administering property not subject to claims on

this schedule. List them on Schedule L instead.

Do not deduct on this schedule amounts paid as

trustees’ commissions whether received by you acting

in the capacity of a trustee or by a separate trustee. If

such amounts were paid in administering property not

subject to claims, deduct them on Schedule L.

Note: Executors’ commissions are taxable income to

the executors. Therefore, be sure to include them as

income on your individual income tax return.

Funeral Expenses.—Itemize funeral expenses on line

A. Deduct from the expenses any amounts that were

reimbursed, such as death benefits payable by the

Social Security Administration and the Veterans

Administration.

Attorney Fees.—Enter the amount of attorney fees

that have actually been paid or that you reasonably

expect to be paid. If on the final examination of the

return the fees claimed have not been awarded by the

proper court and paid, the deduction will be allowed

provided the District Director is reasonably satisfied

that the amount claimed will be paid and that it does

not exceed a reasonable payment for the services

performed, taking into account the size and character

of the estate and the local law and practice. If the fees

claimed have not been paid at the time of final

examination of the return, the amount deducted must

be supported by an affidavit, or statement signed

under the penalties of perjury, by the executor or the

attorney stating that the amount has been agreed

upon and will be paid.

Executors’ Commissions.—When you file the return,

you may deduct commissions that have actually been

paid to you or that you expect will be paid. You may

not deduct commissions if none will be collected. If the

amount of the commissions has not been fixed by

decree of the proper court, the deduction will be

allowed on the final examination of the return, provided

that:

● The District Director is reasonably satisfied that the

commissions claimed will be paid;

● The amount entered as a deduction is within the

amount allowable by the laws of the jurisdiction

where the estate is being administered;

Do not deduct attorney fees incidental to litigation

incurred by the beneficiaries. These expenses are

charged against the beneficiaries personally and are

not administration expenses authorized by the Code.

● It is in accordance with the usually accepted

practice in that jurisdiction for estates of similar size

and character.

If you have not been paid the commissions claimed

at the time of the final examination of the return, you

must support the amount you deducted with an

affidavit or statement signed under the penalties of

perjury that the amount has been agreed upon and will

be paid.

Miscellaneous Expenses.—Miscellaneous

administration expenses necessarily incurred in

preserving and distributing the estate are deductible.

These expenses include appraiser’s and accountant’s

fees, certain court costs, and costs of storing or

maintaining assets of the estate.

The expenses of selling assets are deductible only if

the sale is necessary to pay the decedent’s debts, the

expenses of administration, or taxes, or to preserve the

estate or carry out distribution.

Surviving Spouse (Marital

Deduction)

General

The marital deduction is authorized by

section 2056 for certain property

interests that pass from the decedent to

the surviving spouse. You may claim the

deduction only for property interests that

are included in the decedent’s gross

estate (Schedules A through I).

Note: The marital deduction is generally

not allowed if the surviving spouse is not

a U.S. citizen. The marital deduction is

allowed for property passing to such a

surviving spouse in a “qualified domestic

trust” or if such property is transferred or

irrevocably assigned to such a trust

before the estate tax return is filed. The

executor must elect qualified domestic

trust status on this return. See the

instructions on pages 27, 29, and 30 for

details on the election.

Property Interests That You May

List on Schedule M

For the rules on common disaster and

survival for a limited period, see section

2056(b)(3).

You may list on Schedule M only

those interests that the surviving spouse

takes:

1. As the decedent’s legatee, devisee,

heir, or donee;

2. As the decedent’s surviving tenant

by the entirety or joint tenant;

3. As an appointee under the

decedent’s exercise of a power or as a

taker in default at the decedent’s

nonexercise of a power;

4. As a beneficiary of insurance on the

decedent’s life;

5. As the surviving spouse taking

under dower or curtesy (or similar

statutory interest); and

6. As a transferee of a transfer made

by the decedent at any time.

Property Interests That You May

Not List on Schedule M

1. The value of any property that does

not pass from the decedent to the

surviving spouse.

2. Property interests that are not

included in the decedent’s gross estate.

3. The full value of a property interest

for which a deduction was claimed on

Schedules J through L. The value of the

property interest should be reduced by

the deductions claimed with respect to

it.

4. The full value of a property interest

that passes to the surviving spouse

subject to a mortgage or other

encumbrance or an obligation of the

surviving spouse. Include on Schedule

M only the net value of the interest after

reducing it by the amount of the

mortgage or other debt.

5. Nondeductible terminable interests

(described below).

6. Any property interest disclaimed by

the surviving spouse.

Terminable Interests

The ownership of a bond, note, or

other contractual obligation, which when

discharged would not have the effect of

an annuity for life or for a term, is not

considered a terminable interest.

Nondeductible terminable interests.—

A terminable interest is nondeductible,

and should not be entered on Schedule

M (unless you are making a QTIP

election) if:

1. Another interest in the same

property passed from the decedent to

some other person for less than

adequate and full consideration in

money or money’s worth; and

2. By reason of its passing, the other

person or that person’s heirs may enjoy

part of the property after the termination

of the surviving spouse’s interest.

This rule applies even though the

interest that passes from the decedent

to a person other than the surviving

spouse is not included in the gross

estate, and regardless of when the

interest passes. The rule also applies

regardless of whether the surviving

spouse’s interest and the other person’s

interest pass from the decedent at the

same time. Property interests that are

considered to pass to a person other

than the surviving spouse are any

property interest that: (a) passes under a

decedent’s will or intestacy; (b) was

transferred by a decedent during life; or

(c) is held by or passed on to any

person as a decedent’s joint tenant, as

appointee under a decedent’s exercise

of a power, as taker in default at a

decedent’s release or nonexercise of a

power, or as a beneficiary of insurance

in the decedent’s life.

For example, a decedent devised real

property to his wife for life, with

remainder to his children. The life

interest that passed to the wife does not

qualify for the marital deduction because

it will terminate at her death and the

children will thereafter possess or enjoy

the property.

However, if the decedent purchased a

joint and survivor annuity for himself and

his wife who survived him, the value of

the survivor’s annuity, to the extent that

it is included in the gross estate,

qualifies for the marital deduction

because even though the interest will

terminate on the wife’s death, no one

else will possess or enjoy any part of the

property.

You must complete Schedule M and file

it with the return if you claim a

deduction on item 18 of Part 5,

Recapitulation.

Generally, you may list on Schedule M

all property interests that pass from the

decedent to the surviving spouse and

are included in the gross estate.

However, you should not list any

“Nondeductible terminable interests”

(described below) on Schedule M unless

you are making a QTIP election. The

property for which you make this

election must be included on Schedule

M. See “Qualified Terminable Interest

Property” on the following page.

You should not list on Schedule M:

Certain interests in property passing

from a decedent to a surviving spouse

are referred to as terminable interests.

These are interests that will terminate or

fail after the passage of time, or on the

occurrence or nonoccurrence of some

contingency. Examples are: life estates,

annuities, estates for terms of years,

and patents.

The marital deduction is not allowed

for an interest that the decedent

directed the executor or a trustee to

convert, after death, into a terminable

interest for the surviving spouse. The

marital deduction is not allowed for such

an interest even if there was no interest
Form 706 (Rev. 8-93)

Page 29

If any property interest passing from

the decedent to the surviving spouse

may be paid or otherwise satisfied out of

any of a group of assets, the value of

the property interest is, for the entry on

Schedule M, reduced by the value of

any asset or assets that, if passing from

the decedent to the surviving spouse,

would be nondeductible terminable

interests. Examples of property interests

that may be paid or otherwise satisfied

out of any of a group of assets are a

bequest of the residue of the decedent’s

estate, or of a share of the residue, and

a cash legacy payable out of the general

estate.

Example: A decedent bequeathed

$100,000 to the surviving spouse. The

general estate includes a term for years

(valued at $10,000 in determining the

value of the gross estate) in an office

building, which interest was retained by

the decedent under a deed of the

building by gift to a son. Accordingly, the

value of the specific bequest entered on

Schedule M is $90,000.

Life Estate With Power of

Appointment in the Surviving

Spouse.—A property interest, whether

or not in trust, will be treated as passing

to the surviving spouse, and will not be

treated as a nondeductible terminable

interest if: (a) the surviving spouse is

entitled for life to all of the income from

the entire interest; (b) the income is

payable annually or at more frequent

intervals; (c) the surviving spouse has

the power, exercisable in favor of the

surviving spouse or the estate of the

surviving spouse, to appoint the entire

interest; (d) the power is exercisable by

the surviving spouse alone and (whether

exercisable by will or during life) is

exercisable by the surviving spouse in all

events; and (e) no part of the entire

interest is subject to a power in any

other person to appoint any part to any

person other than the surviving spouse

(or the surviving spouse’s legal

representative or relative if the surviving

spouse is disabled. See Rev. Rul. 85-35

1985-1 C.B. 328). If these five conditions

are satisfied only for a specific portion of

the entire interest, see the section

2056(b) regulations to determine the

amount of the marital deduction.

Life Insurance, Endowment, or Annuity

Payments, With Power of Appointment

in Surviving Spouse.—A property

interest consisting of the entire proceeds

under a life insurance, endowment, or

Charitable Remainder Trusts.—An

interest in a charitable remainder trust

will not be treated as a nondeductible

terminable interest if:

1. The interest in the trust passes from

the decedent to the surviving spouse;

and

2. The surviving spouse is the only

beneficiary of the trust other than

charitable organizations described in

section 170(c).

A “charitable remainder trust” is either

a charitable remainder annuity trust or a

charitable remainder unitrust. (See

section 664 for descriptions of these

trusts.)

Election To Deduct Qualified

Terminable Interests (QTIP)

If you file a Form 706 in which you do

not make this election, you may not file

an amended return to make the election

The effect of the election is that the

property (interest) will be treated as

passing to the surviving spouse and will

not be treated as a nondeductible

terminable interest. All of the other

marital deduction requirements must still

be satisfied before you may make this

election. For example, you may not

make this election for property or

property interests that are not included

in the decedent’s gross estate.

Qualified Terminable Interest Property

is property (a) that passes from the

decedent, and (b) in which the surviving

spouse has a qualifying income interest

for life.

The surviving spouse has a qualifying

income interest for life if the surviving

spouse is entitled to all of the income

from the property payable annually or at

more frequent intervals, or has a

usufruct interest for life in the property,

and during the surviving spouse’s

lifetime no person has a power to

appoint any part of the property to any

person other than the surviving spouse.

An annuity is treated as an income

interest regardless of whether the

property from which the annuity is

payable can be separately identified.

The QTIP election may be made for all

or any part of a qualified terminable

interest property. A partial election must

relate to a fractional or percentile share

of the property so that the elective part

will reflect its proportionate share of the

increase or decline in the whole of the

property when applying sections 2044 or

2519. Thus, if the interest of the

surviving spouse in a trust (or other

property in which the spouse has a

qualified life estate) is qualified

terminable interest property, you may

make an election for a part of the trust

(or other property) only if the election

relates to a defined fraction or

percentage of the entire trust (or other

property). The fraction or percentage

may be defined by means of a formula.

Qualified Domestic Trust Election

(QDOT)

A QDOT is any trust:

1. That requires at least one trustee to

be either an individual who is a citizen of

the United States or a domestic

corporation;

in the property passing to another

person and even if the terminable

interest would otherwise have been

deductible under the exceptions

described below for life estate and life

insurance and annuity payments with

powers of appointment. For more

information, see Regulations sections

20.2056(b)-1(f) and 20.2056(b)-1(g),

Example (7).

The marital deduction is allowed for

transfers to a surviving spouse who is

not a U.S. citizen only if the property

passes to the surviving spouse in a

“qualified domestic trust” (QDOT) or if

such property is transferred or

irrevocably assigned to a QDOT before

the decedent’s estate tax return is filed.

annuity contract is treated as passing

from the decedent to the surviving

spouse, and will not be treated as a

nondeductible terminable interest if: (a)

the surviving spouse is entitled to

receive the proceeds in installments, or

is entitled to interest on them, with all

amounts payable during the life of the

spouse, payable only to the surviving

spouse; (b) the installment or interest

payments are payable annually, or more

frequently, beginning not later than 13

months after the decedent’s death; (c)

the surviving spouse has the power,

exercisable in favor of the surviving

spouse or of the estate of the surviving

spouse, to appoint all amounts payable

under the contract; (d) the power is

exercisable by the surviving spouse

alone and (whether exercisable by will or

during life) is exercisable by the

surviving spouse in all events; and (e) no

part of the amount payable under the

contract is subject to a power in any

other person to appoint any part to any

person other than the surviving spouse.

If these five conditions are satisfied only

for a specific portion of the proceeds,

see the section 2056(b) regulations to

determine the amount of the marital

deduction.

You may elect to claim a marital

deduction for qualified terminable

interest property or property interests.

You make the QTIP election simply by

listing the qualified terminable interest

property on Schedule M and deducting

its value. You are presumed to have

made the QTIP election if you list the

property and deduct its value on

Schedule M. If you make this election,

the surviving spouse’s gross estate will

include the value of the “qualified

terminable interest property.” See the

instructions for line 6 of General

Information for more details. The

election is irrevocable.

unless you file the amended return on or

before the due date for filing the original

Form 706.
Form 706 (Rev. 8-93)

Page 30

The determination of whether a trust

qualifies as a QDOT will be made as of

the date the decedent’s Form 706 is

filed. If, however, judicial proceedings

are brought before the Form 706’s due

date (including extensions) to have the

trust revised to meet the QDOT

requirements, then the determination will

not be made until the court-ordered

changes to the trust are made.

Line 3

The executor can elect out of QTIP

treatment, however, by checking the

“Yes” box on line 3. Once made, the

election is irrevocable. If there is more

than one such joint and survivor annuity,

you are not required to make the

election for all of them.

If you make the election out of QTIP

treatment by checking “Yes” on line 3,

you cannot deduct the amount of the

annuity on Schedule M. If you do not

make the election out, you must list 

the joint and survivor annuities on

Schedule M.

Listing Property Interest on

Schedule M

Enter the value of each interest before

taking into account the Federal estate

tax or any other death tax. The valuation

dates used in determining the value 

of the gross estate apply also on

Schedule M.

If Schedule M includes a bequest of

the residue or a part of the residue of

the decedent’s estate, attach a copy of

the computation showing how the value

of the residue was determined. Include a

statement showing:

● The value of all property that is

included in the decedent’s gross estate

(Schedules A through I) but is not a part

of the decedent’s probate estate, such

as lifetime transfers, jointly owned

property that passed to the survivor on

decedent’s death, and the insurance

payable to specific beneficiaries.

● The values of all specific and general

legacies or devises, with reference to the

applicable clause or paragraph of the

decedent’s will or codicil. (If legacies are

made to each member of a class, for

example, $1,000 to each of decedent’s

employees, only the number in each

class and the total value of property

received by them need be furnished.)

● The date of birth of all persons, the

length of whose lives may affect the

value of the residuary interest passing to

the surviving spouse.

● Any other important information such

as that relating to any claim to any part

of the estate not arising under the will.

Lines 5a, b, and c.—The total of the

values listed on Schedule M must be

reduced by the amount of the Federal

estate tax, the Federal GST tax, and the

amount of state or other death and GST

taxes paid out of the property interest

involved. If you enter an amount for

state or other death or GST taxes on

lines 5b or 5c, identify the taxes and

attach your computation of them. For

additional information, see Pub. 904,

Interrelated Computations for Estate and

Gift Taxes.

Attachments.—If you list property

interests passing by the decedent’s will

on Schedule M, attach a certified copy

of the order admitting the will to

probate. If, when you file the return, the

court of probate jurisdiction has entered

any decree interpreting the will or any of

its provisions affecting any of the

interests listed on Schedule M, or has

entered any order of distribution, attach

a copy of the decree or order. In

addition, the District Director may

request other evidence to support the

marital deduction claimed.

2. That requires that no distribution of

corpus from the trust can be made

unless such a trustee has the right to

withhold from the distribution the tax

imposed on the QDOT;

3. That meets the requirements of any

applicable regulations; and

4. For which the executor has made

an election on the estate tax return of

the decedent.

You make the QDOT election simply

by listing the qualified domestic trust or

the entire value of the trust property on

Schedule M and deducting its value. You

are presumed to have made the QDOT

election if you list the trust or trust

property and deduct its value on

Schedule M. Once made, the election

is irrevocable.

If an election is made to deduct

qualified domestic trust property under

section 2056A(d), the following

information should be provided for each

qualified domestic trust on an

attachment to this schedule:

Section 2056(b)(7) creates an automatic

QTIP election for certain joint and

survivor annuities that are includible in

the estate under section 2039. To

qualify, only the surviving spouse can

have the right to receive payments

before the death of the surviving spouse.

List each property interest included in

the gross estate that passes from the

decedent to the surviving spouse and

for which a marital deduction is claimed.

This includes otherwise nondeductible

terminable interest property for which

you are making a QTIP election. Number

each item in sequence and describe

each item in detail. Describe the

instrument (including any clause or

paragraph number) or provision of law

under which each item passed to the

surviving spouse. If possible, show

where each item appears (number and

schedule) on Schedules A through I.

In listing otherwise nondeductible

property for which you are making a

QTIP election, unless you specifically

identify a fractional portion of the trust

or other property as not subject to the

election, the election will be considered

made for all of the trust or other

property.

1. The name and address of every

trustee;

2. A description of each transfer

passing from the decedent that is the

source of the property to be placed in

trust; and

3. The employer identification number

for the trust.

The election must be made for an

entire QDOT trust. In listing a trust for

which you are making a QDOT election,

unless you specifically identify the trust

as not subject to the election, the

election will be considered made for the

entire trust.

Instructions for Fiduciary When To Pay the GST Tax

The GST tax is due and payable 9 months after the

decedent’s date of death (entered by the executor on

Schedule R-1). Interest will be charged on any GST

taxes unpaid as of that date. However, you have an

automatic extension of time to file Schedule R-1 and

pay the GST tax due until 2 months after the due date

(with extensions) for filing the decedent’s Schedule R,

Form 706. This Schedule R, Form 706 due date is

entered by the executor on Schedule R-1. Thus, while

interest will be due on unpaid GST taxes, no penalties

will be charged if you file Schedule R-1 by this

extended due date.

Purpose of Schedule R-1

Code section 2603(a)(2) provides that the GenerationSkipping Transfer (GST) tax imposed on a direct skip

from a trust is to be paid by the trustee. Schedule R-1

(Form 706) serves as a payment voucher for the

trustee to remit the GST tax to the IRS. See the

instructions for Form 706 as to when a direct skip is

from a trust.

How To Pay the GST Tax

The executor will compute the GST tax, complete

Schedule R-1, and give you two copies. You should

pay the GST tax using one copy and keep the other

copy for your records.

Signature

You, as fiduciary, must sign the Schedule R-1 in the

The GST tax due is the amount shown on line 6. space provided.

Make your check or money order for this amount

payable to “Internal Revenue Service,” write “GST tax”

and the trust’s EIN on it, and send it and one copy of

the completed Schedule R-1 to the IRS Service Center

where the Form 706 was filed, as shown on the front

of the Schedule R-1.

Schedule

The Continuation Schedule on page 40 provides a

uniform format for listing additional assets from

Schedules A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I and additional

deductions from Schedules J, K, L, M, and O. Use the

Continuation Schedule when you need to list more

assets or deductions than you have room for on one of

the main schedules.

To continue Schedule K, you should use the

Alternate valuation date and Alternate value columns of

the Continuation Schedule as Amount unpaid to date

and Amount in contest columns, respectively.

To continue Schedules J, L, and M, you should use

the Alternate valuation date and Alternate value

columns of the Continuation Schedule to continue your

description of the deductions. You should enter the

amount of each deduction in the amount deductible

column of the Continuation Schedule.

Use a separate Continuation Schedule for each main

schedule you are continuing. For each schedule of

Form 706, you may use as many Continuation

Schedules as needed to list all the assets or

deductions to be reported. Do not combine assets or

deductions from different schedules on one

Continuation Schedule. Because there is only one

Continuation Schedule in this package, you should

make copies of the schedule before completing it if

you expect to need more than one.

To continue Schedule O, you should use the space

under the Alternate valuation date and Alternate value

columns of the Continuation Schedule to provide the

Character of institution information required on

Schedule O. You should enter the amount of each

deduction in the amount deductible column of the

Continuation Schedule.

Enter the letter of the schedule you are continuing in

the space provided at the top of the Continuation

Schedule. Complete the rest of the Continuation

Schedule as explained in the instructions for the

schedule you are continuing. Use the Unit value

column only if you are continuing Schedules B, E, or

G. For all other schedules, you may use the space

under the Unit value column to continue your

description.

Carry the total from the Continuation Schedule(s)

forward to the appropriate line of the main schedule.
