We ask for the information on this form to carry out

the Internal Revenue laws of the United States. You

are required to give us the information. We need it to

ensure that you are complying with these laws and to

allow us to figure and collect the right amount of tax.

Use Form 8453-F to (a) authenticate the electronic or

magnetic media Form 1041, U.S. Fiduciary Income Tax

Return; (b) serve as a transmittal for any

accompanying paper schedules, statements, and

magnetic media; and (c) authorize the electronic or

magnetic media filer to transmit via a third-party

transmitter.

Every estate or trust filing a 1993 Form 1041 via

electronic or magnetic media must file a signed Form

8453-F.

Send Form 8453-F to: Internal Revenue Service,

Philadelphia Service Center, ATTN: Magnetic Media

Unit—DP 115, 11601 Roosevelt Blvd., Philadelphia, PA

19154.

An estate or trust must file its income tax return by the

15th day of the 4th month following the close of the

tax year of the estate or trust. This filing date also

applies to returns filed electronically or on magnetic

media. For returns filed electronically, the transmitter

must send the signed Form 8453-F the same day the

transmission is made. For returns filed on magnetic

tape or diskette, the transmitter must send the signed

Form 8453-F in the same package with the

corresponding tape or diskette.

The EMMRO is one who deals directly with the

fiduciary and either prepares tax returns or collects

prepared tax returns, including Forms 8453-F, for

fiduciaries who wish to have their returns electronically

or magnetically filed. The EMMRO’s signature is

required by the IRS.

Signature For Multiple-Return Filing

A single signature may be used for a multiple-return

filing if the fiduciary is authorized to sign each return.

The signer must attach a multiple-return information

listing according to the instructions given in Pub. 1437,

Procedures for Electronic and Magnetic Media Filing of

U.S. Fiduciary Income Tax Returns, Form 1041, for Tax

Year 1993. The information listing must include the
