Throughout these instructions all references to citizens of the United States are subject to the provisions of sections 2208 •
and 2209 of the Code which relate to decedent United States citizens who were residents of a United States possession on the date
of death.If such a decedent acquired his United States citizenship solely by 'reason of his connection with the possession,then
for purposes of the Federal estate tax such decedent is deemed a nonresident not a citizen of the United States.If such adecedentacquiredhisUnitedStatescitizenshipwhollyindependentlyofhisconnectionwiththepossession,then such decedent "
is deemed 'a citizen of the United States.
A.Statute and seneral description.-The Federal estate tax
is imposed by chapter 11 of the Internal Revenue .code.It is
not an inheritance tax.It is imposed upon the transfer of
the entire taxable estate and not upon the,share received by a
particular beneficiary.The taxable estate is determined by tak-
ing the value of'the gross estate (Schedules A to I,inclusive)
and deducting therefrom the'total amount of the deductions
authorized by the Statute.
Different provisions control the determination of the tax lia-
bility of the estates of citizens or residents of the United States
and the estates of nonresidents not citizens of the United States.
(Gene~aIly,reference herein to the-decedent's residence means
the decedent's domicile.)For specific information on Federal
estate taxation in ,the case of a nonresident not a citizen of the

must be filed for the estate of every citizen or resident of the
United States'whose gross'estate~·as defined by the Statute
exceeded $60,000 in value at the date of death.
_.Instructions relative to the requirement of a return for the
estate of a nonresident not a 'citizen of the United States are
set forth on page 39.
The value of the gross estate at the date of the decedent's
death governs the liability forthe filing of the return,l'egardlessofanyvaluationasofasubsequenttimethatmaybeadoptedbytheexecutorundertheprovisionsofsection2032oftheCode.
C.Time and place of filinS retlirn.---:'The return is due 15
months after the date of the decedent's death.The return for
the estate of a resident decedent must be filed with the District
Director of Internal Revenue in whose district the decedent had

ton,D.C.,20225,U.S.A.In exceptional cases,application
may be made to the Commissioner for permission to file in anyotherinternalrevenuedistrict.
D.Pa.yment of tax.-The tax is due 15 months after the date
of the decedent'ii death,and must be paid within such period
unless an extension of time for payment thereof has been
gl'anted.by.the District Director,.01',unless ,the executor,has,
properly elected under section 6166 to pay in installments.
Check or money order in payment of the tax should be made
payable to "Internal Revenue Service."
E.Sllpplemental doc"-ments.-If the decedent was a resident
and died te-state a certified copy of the will must be filed with
the return.

if the estate is subject to such a foreign tax.
(3)If the decedent died testate,a certified copy of the will.

after explained under the instructions for the several schedules.

bered in consecutive order.For convenience in typing carbon
copies,the sets as issued may be readily separated and the cor-
responding sheets matched.When completed,the return must
be permanently fastened tosether with all sheets in proper order.
Any suitable type of paper fastener maybe utilized for this pur-
pose.Ordinary wire staples are l:ecommended for the returnofaveragesize.All poses provided,numbered 1 througrt 40,
must be included.
Write onlv on one side of each sheet of paper.If there is not
sufficient space for 'all entries under any of the printed sched-
ules,use additional sheets of the same size,and insert in theproperorderintheretu·rn.All information required as indi-cated under "General Information"must be supplied in the
spaces provided.The questions asked under each schedule
must be specifically answered,and if the decedent owned no
Page 2
property of any class specified for the schedule,the word
"None"should be written across the schedule.
The gross estate must be set forth 'under the appropriate
Schedules A to 1.The deductions,except the amount claimed
for the exemption,should be shown under the appropriate
Schedules J to N.In the case of a resident or citizen the
'amount deducted for the exemption should be shown',under
Schedule P,and the taxable estate computed thereon.
For every item of principal,any income accrued thereon at
the date of the decedent's death must be separately entered
under the column headed "Value at date of death";and,if
the altei:nate valuation is adopted,any includible income,with
respect to each item of principal,as hereinafter explained,
must be separately entered under the column headed "Alternate
value.".,
The items should be numbered under every schedule and a
separate enumeration should be used for each schedule.The
total for each schedule should be shown at the bottom of the
schedule.The totals should not'be carried'forward from one

quent valuation date"and "Alternate value"should not be
shown unless the executor adopts the alternate valuation
authorized by section 2032 of the Code.If such alternate
valuation is not adopted,the space in the columns headed "Sub-
sequent valuation date"and "Alternate value"may be utilized
for descriptive matter,as indicated in the example shown under
the instructions for Schedule A.Similar information should
be omitted in the space provided therefor under the Recapitula-•tion,Schedule 0,if the alternate valuation is not adopted.'
The computation of the tax must be shown in detail as indi-
cated on page 1.If the executor determines no liability for
tax,the word "None"should be shown at item 8 under "Com-
putation of Tax."
If credit for foreign death taxes is claimed,the credit should
be computed on Schedule S.
The filing of Form 706,will not be considered the filing of
a complete return as required by the Statute and the regula-
tions issued pursuant thereto unless all the information as
indicated herein is set forth..,ROlindilig off to whole·doliar amounts.-If you wish,the money
items on your return may be shown as whole-dollar amounts.
This means that you eliminate any amount less than 50 cents,
and increase any amount from 50 cents th~'ough 99 cents to thenexthighestdollar.' , .
G.Signature and verification.-If there is more than one
executor or administrator,all sh9uld verify and sign the return.Such persons.are responsible for the return as filed and incur
liability for penalties provided for erroneous,false,or fraudu-
lent returns.
If there.is,no executor or ad~inistl'atorappointed;qualified,
and acting in the United States,every person in actual or con-
structive possession of any property of the decedent is consti-tuted by the Statue an executor for the purposes of the tax
(section 2203 of the Code),and is liable for the filing of the
return.If two or more persons are liable for the filing of
the return,it is preferable for all to join in the filing of one
complete return,but if they are unable to join in making
one complete return,each is required to file a return disclosing
all the information he has in the case,including the name ofeverypersonholdinganinterestinthepropertyandafull
description of such property.If the appointed,qualified,and
acting executor or administrator is unable to make a complete
return,the Statute requires that every person holding an
interest in the property shall,upon notice from the district
director,make a return as to such interest.The person or persons who file the 'return must,in every case,sign under penalties of perjury the fil'st declaration on page
40.If the return is prepared by an attorney or agent for the

I.Penalties.-Severe penalties are provided by law for willful

to evade or defeat payment of tax.
J.Gross estate.-In addition to the general provision of the
Statute requiring the inclusion in the gross estate of property
to t~e extent of the decedent's interest therein,other provisions~pecifica}ly include,as more fully explained hereinafter in the
ll1strucbons for the separate schedules,certain transfers made
during the decedent's life without an adequate and full consid-
eration in money or money's worth,annuities,joint estates with
right of survivorship,tenancies by the entirety,life insurance
even though payable to beneficiaries other than the estate,prop-
er~y over which the decedent possessed a general power of ap-
pOll1tment,and dower or curtesy (or statutory estate in lieu
thereof)of the surviving spouse.The gross estate of dece-
dents,citizens or'residents of the United States,dying after
October 16,1962,includes real property situated outside of the
United States,unless the decedent's death was after October 16,
1962,and before July 1,1964,and (i)the decedent's interest in
the foreign real property was acquired before February 1,1962,
or (i,i)the decedent's interest in the foreign real property was
acquIred after January 31,1962,but the donor or prior decedent
from whom the decedent's interest was acquired had acquired
such prior intet:est before February 1,1962.(The gross estate
of decedents dymg before October 17,1962,does not include real
property situated outside of the United States.)See section
20.2031-1 of the regulations for the rules governing foreign real
property includible in the gross estate.
Co!"'!'unity property•.:...-Property held by the decedent and his
SUrVIVll1g spouse as community property is includible in the
gross estate to the extent of the decedent's interest in such
property under the applicable law of the'State,or possession of
the United States,or of the foi'eign country.
For further details,see Estate Tax Regulations.
K.Valuation.-Unless the executor properly elects at the time
the return is filed to adopt the alternate valuation authorized
by section 2032 of the Code,all property included in the gross
estate must be valued as of the date of the decedent's death.
L.Alternate valuation.-Ifthe executor elects to adopt the
valuation authorized by section 2032 of the Code,such election
should be indicated in item 21 under "General Information."
The election is not valid unless made on the return within the
period of time prescribed by law and regulations.
In general,the object of section 2032 of the Code is to make
provision whereby the amount of tax otherwise payable may be
lessened when,within the year following the decedent's death,
the gross estate has suffered a shrinkage in its aggregate value.
The executor may,by an election duly made upon this return
have the property which was included in the gross estate on th~
date of the decedent's death valued as of the applicable dates,
as follows:
(1)Any property distributed,sold,exchanged,orotherwise
disposed of within 1 year after the decedent's death valued
as of the date of such distribution,sale,exchange,~r other
disposition,whichever first occurs;
(2)Any p'roperty not distributed,sold,exchanged,or
otherwise disposed of within such I-year period valued as of
the date 1 year after the date of the decedent's death;
(3)Any property,interest,or estate which is "affected by
mere lapse of time,"valued as of the date of decedent's death'~x~ept that an adjustment is to be made for any differenc~
m ItS value not due to such lapse of time,as of the date 1 year
after the date of decedent's death,or as of the date of its dis-
tribution,sale,exchange,or other disposition,whichever first
occurs.Property,in the case of a sale,exchange,or other disposition
thereof within the I-year period,is to be valued as of the date
when it ceases to form a part of the gross estate,that is,the
date when the title passes as the result of its sale,exchange or
other disposition.The terms,"distributed,""sold,".lex-
changed,""or otherwise disposed of,"comprehend all possible
Page 4
ways by which property may be separated or passed from the'
gross estate.
The property to be valued as of 1 year after the date of
decedent's death,or as of that date,or as of some intermediate
date,is the property included in the gross estate on the date of'
the decedent's death.It will be necessary in every case first
to determine what property constituted the gross estate at
decedent's death.
Interest accrued to the date of the d,ecE}dent's death on bonds
notes,and other interest-bearing obligations constitutes .prop~erty of the gross estate on the date of his death and is to be
included in the alternate valuation.Rent accrued to the date
of the decedent's death on leased realty or personalty consti-
tutes property of the gross estate on the date of his death andistobeincludedinthealternatevaluation..
Outstanding dividends which were declared to stockholders
of record on or before the date of the decedent's death consti-
tute property of the gross estate on the date of his death,and
are to be included in the alternate valuation.Ordinary divi-dends declared to stockholders of record after the date of the
dec,edent's death do not constitute property of the gross estate
at the date of his death and are to be excluded from the alter-
nate valuation.However,if dividends a~e declared to stock-
holders of reco'rd after the date of the decedent's death with
the effect that the shares of stock at the subsequent valuation
date do not reasonably repi:esent the same property existing
at the date of the decedent's death,such dividends are to be
included in the alternate valuation,except to the extent that
such dividends are paid from earnings of the corporation after
the date of the decedent's death.
The election applie.s to all the property included in the gross
estate on the date of the decedent's death.It cannot be ap.plied
only to a portion of such property.
In every case where the election is exercised,the return must
set forth (1)an itemized description of all property included
in.the gross estate on th~date of the decedent's death together •"11th the value of each Item as of that date,(2)an itemized
disolosure of all distributions,sales,exchanges,and other
dispositions of such property during the I-year period after
the decedent's death,together with the dates thereof,and
(3)the value of each item of property determined as herein-•
before explained and in accordance with the regulations issued,
pursuant to section 2032.The foregoing information must be
shown·under the appropriate columns of each schedule.Under
the column headed "Description"a brief statement for each
iteII.I must be shown explaini:t:Ig the status or disposition gov-
ermng the subsequent valuatIOn date,such as,"Not disposed
of within year following death,""Distributed,""Sold,""Bond
p.aid on mat~rity,"etc..U:nder thi~sam~heading a descrip-
tIo~of each Item of prmcIpal and mcludible income must be
entered separately.Under the heading,"subsequent valua-
tion date,"the applicable date for each separate entry of
principal and includible income must be shown.Undel'
the heading,"Alternate value"the amount of the prin-
cipal and the amount of includible income must be sepa-
rately shown.In the case of any interest or estate the value
of which is affected by mere .lapse of time such as patents,
leaseholds,estates for the hfe of another,or remainder
interests,the value shown under the heading "Alternate value"must be the adjusted value,i.e.,the value as of the date of
death with an adjustment reflecting any difference in its value
as of the later date not due to mete lapse of time.Under the
heading,"Value at date of death"the amount of the principal
and the.amount of~ncludib~eincome must be entered separately.F~rexamples Illustratmg the entry of the information
requIred under the schedules,see pages 6 and 10.While the
examples there shown pertain to Schedules A and B,the infor-
mation required under the other schedules should be set forth
in a similar manner.All the information indicated on this form must be supplied.Statements as to distributions,sales,exchanges,and other
dispositions of the pl:operty within the I-year period after the
decedent's death must be supported by evidence.If the court
issues an order of distribution during that period,a certified
copy of the order must be submitted as part of the evidence.
The district director may require the submission of such
additional evidence as is deemed necessary.
M.Credits against tax.-Under certain circumstances a creditagains~the tax is a:uthorized for estate,in~eritance,legacy,or
succeSSIOn taxes paId to a State,or the DIstrict of Columbia.
The size of the taxable estate determines whether this credit is
allowable and,if so,the maximum amount thereof.Credits for

-----·----INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE B
STOCKS AND BONDS
1.Description.-Description of stocks should indicate number
of shares,whether common or preferred,issue,par value,price
per share,exact name of corporation,and,if not listed on a
stock exchange,the post-office address of the principal business
office,the State in whicli incorporated,and the date of incor-
poration.If listed,state principal exchange upon which sold.
Description of bonds should include quantity and denomina-
tion,name-of obligor,kind of bond,date of maturity,interest
rate,and interest-due dates.State the exchange upon which
listed,or if unlisted the principal business office of the company.
2.Stocks and b.onds subject to fqreign death taxes to be
grouped under separate heading.-Where any estate,inherit-
ance,legacy,or succession tax has been paid to a foreign coun-
try in respect of any stocks or bonds included in this schedule,
the stocks and bonds subjected to the foreign death tax should
be grouped separately on this schedule under the heading,"Sub-
jected to Foreign Death Taxes."
3.·Valuation.-In the case of stocks and bonds listed on a
stock exchange the mean between the highest and lowest quoted
selling prices on the valuation date shall be considered as the
fair market value per share or bond.If there were no sales
on the valuation date,such value shall be determined by taking
the mean between the highest and lowest sales on the nearest
trading date before and the nearesttrading date after the valua-
tion date (both such nearest dates being within a reasonable
period),and by prorating the difference between such mean
prices to the valuation date,and by adding or subtracting,as
the case may be,such prorated portion of the difference to or
from the mean price obtaining on such nearest trading date be-
fore the valuation date.For example,assume that sales of
stock nearest the valuation date (June 15)occurred 2 tradingdaysbefore(June 13)and 3 trading days after (June 18)andthatonsuchdaysthemeansalepricespersharewere$10 and$15,respectively.The price of $12 shall be taken as represent-
ing the fair market value of a share of such stock as of the
valuation date.If,however,on June 13 and 18 the mean sale
prices per share were $15 and $10,respectively,the price of $13
shall be taken as representing the fair market value of a share
of such stock as of the valuation date.If the security was
listed on more than one exchange,the records of the exchange
where the security is principally dealt in should be employed.In valuing listed stocks and bonds the executor should observe
care to consult accurate records to obtain values as of the ap-
plicable valuation date.
Dividends declared on shares of stock prior to the death of
the decedent butpayable to stockholders of record on a date after
his death are not includible in his gross estatefor Federal estate
tax purposes.However,in a case where the stock is being
traded on an exchange and is selling ex-dividend on the date
of the decedent's death,the amount of the dividend should not
be included in the gross estate as a separate item but should be
added to the ex-dividend quotation in determining the fair
market value of the stock as of the date of the decedent's death.
In the case of stocks and bonds which are not listed upon an
exchange,but are dealt in through brokers or have a market,thefairmarketvalueshallbedeterminedbytakingthemeanbe-
tween the highest and lowest selling prices as of the valuation
date;or,if there were no sales on that date,such value shall be
determined by taking the mean between the highest and lowest
sales on the nearest trading date before and the nearest trading
date after the valuation date (both such nearest dates being
within a reasonable period),and by prorating the difference be-
tween such mean prices to the valuation date,and by adding or
subtracting,as the case may be,such prorated portion of the
difference to or from the mean price obtaining on such nearest
trading date before the valuation date.If quotations are ob-
tained from brokers,or evidence as to the sale of securities is
obtained from the officers of the issuing companies,copies of the
letters furnishing such quotations or evidence of sa~e should be
attached to the return.
If actual sales are not available during a reasonable period
beginning before and ending after the valuation date,the fair
market value may be determined by taking the mean between
the bona fide bid and asked prices on the nearest trading datebefore,and the-nearest trading date after the valuation date
(both such nearest dates being within a reasonable period),and
by prorating the difference between such mean prices to the
valuation date,and by 'adding or subtracting,as the case may
be,such prorated portion of the difference to or from the mean
Pag~8
price obtaining on such nearest trading date before the valua-
tion date.If actual sale prices or quoted bona fide bid and
asked prices are available on a date within a reasonable period
prior to the valuation date,but if no actual sale prices or bona
fide bid and asked prices are available on a date within a rea-
sonable period after the valuation date,or vice versa,then the
mean between such highest and lowest available sale prices or
bid and·askedprices may betaken as·the value.--......
For the valuation of inactive stock and stock in close corpora-
tions,see the regulations issued pursuant to section 2031;of the
Code.Complete financial and other data upon which th~estate
bases its valuation should be submittedwiththereturn,including
balance sheets (particularly the one nearest to the valuation
date),and 'statements of the net earnings or operating results
and dividends paid for each of the 5 years immediately preced-
ing the valuation date..
Securities returned as of no value,nomin~l value or obsolete,
should be listed last,and the address of the company and the
State and date of the incorporation should be stated.Copies of
correspondence or statements used as the basis for return at no
value should be attached.I
4.Interest and dividends.--'Interest and dividends must be
shown separately as explained in the General Instruction F,
"Execution of Return."i
5.Estate of nonresident not a citizen of the United Stat~s.-In
the case of the estate of a nomesident not a citizen of theiUnited
States,stocks of foreign corporations are not to be included in
this schedule or any other schedule.If such an individ~al was
not engaged in business in the United States,there snaIl not

part III of subchapter A of chapter 11 of the Code.For ex-
ample,if the decedent possessed incidents of ownership'in an
insurance policy on his life but gratuitously transferred all
rights in the policy in contemplation of death,the proceeds
would be includible under section 2035.
2.Insurance in favor of the estate.-The full amount of the
proceeds of insurance on the life of the decedent receivable by
the executor or administrator,or otherwise payable to or for
the benefit of the estate,should be included in the gross estate.
Insurance in favor of the estate includes insurance effected to
provitle funds to meet the estate tax,acnd any other taxes,debts,

ner in which the P9licy is'drawn is immaterial so long as there

amount is so includible even though the premiums or other con-
sideration wherewith the insurancewas acquired may have been

transfers will not be considered to have been made in contem-
plation of death unless they were made within 3 years prior
to death.
For more detailed information,see the Estate Tax Regu-
lations.
Transfers included in the gross estate should be valued as of
the date of the decedent's death or,if the alternate valuation
is adopted,in accordance with section 2032 of the Code.If only
a portion of the property is so transferred as to come within
the terms of the Statute,only a corresponding proportion of the
value of the property should be included in the value ofthe gross
estate.If the transferee makes additions to the property,or
betterments,the enhanced value of the property at the valuation
date,due to such additions or betterments,should not be included
under this schedule.However,where only a portion of the
value of the property is included,the value of the whole must be
disclosed under the column headed "Description,"together withanexplanationoftheproportionateinclusion.
To constitute a bona fide sale for an adequate and full con-sideration in money or money's worth,it must have been made
in good faith,and the price must have been an adequate and
full equivalent andreducible to a money value.Ifthe price was
less than an adequate and full equivalent,only the excess of the
fair market value of the property,as of the valuation date,
over the price received by the decedent should be included in the
gross estate.For the purpose of the estate tax the relinquish-
ment or promised relinquishment of dower,curtesy,or of a
statutory estate created in lieu of dower or curtesy,or of other
marital rights in the decedent's property or estate,is not to any
extent a consideration in money or money's worth.
All transfers made by the decedent within 3 years prior to the
date of his death of a value of $1,000 or more and all transfers
(other than outright transfers not in trust)·made by the dece-
dent at any time during his life of a value of $5,000 or moreexceptbonafidesalesforanadequateandfullconsideration,in money or money's worth must be disclosed in the return,
whether the executor regards such transfers as subject to the
tax or not.If the executor believes that such a transfer is not
subject to the tax a statement of the pertinent facts should
be made.
In case a transfer,by trust or otherwise,was made by a
written instrument,a copy must be filed with the return.If of
public record,the copy should be certified;.if not of record,the
copy should be verified.
The name of the transferee,date and form of transfer,and a
complete description of the property should be set forth in this
schedule.Rents and other income must be included as explained
under "Execution of Return"in the "General Instructions."
Nonresident not a citizen of the United States.-Ifthe decedent
was a nonresident not a citizen,the transfer must be included if
the property was situated in the United States,either at the
date of the decedent's death or at the date of the transfer.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE I-Continued
(a)An employee's trust (or under a contract purchits'ed '
by an employees'trust)forming part of a pension,stock
bonus,or profit-sharing plan which met all of the require-
ments of section 401 (a)of the Code,either at the time of the
decedent's separation from employment (whether by death
or otherwise)or at the time of the termination of the plan
if earlier;
(b)A retirement annuity contract purchased by an em-
ployer (but not by an employees'trust),pursuant to a plan
which,at the time of the decedent's separation from employ-
ment (by death or,otherwise),or at the timeof the termination
of the plan if 'earlier,was a plan described in section 403 (a);
or
(c)A retirement annuity contract purchased for an em-
ployee by an employer which is an organization referred to
in section 503 (b)(1), (2),or (3)of the Code,and which is
exempt from tax under section 501 (a)of the Code.
Where the annuity or other payment described above is
receivable by a beneficiary other than the executor and the
decedent made no contributions under the plan toward the cost
thereof,no portion of the annuity oi'other payment is includible
in the gross estate.If the decedent made a contribution under
the plan toward the cost thereof,there shall be included inthisscheduleofthereturnthatproportionoftheannuityor
other payment which an amount A (the amount of the dece-
dent's contribution under the plan)bears to B (the total amount
of all contributions under the plan).The decedent's contribu-
tions under a plan which satisfies the requirements set forth in
(a)or (b)do not include any amounts contributed by the
employer under the plan,but in the case of (c),employer's
contributions in excess of the amounts excludable from gross
income of the decedent under section 403 (b)are considered
to have been contributed by the decedent.However,contribu-
tions or payments on behalf of the decedent while he was a self-
employed individual made under a trust or plan described in
paragraph (a)or (b)above shall be considered to have been
made by the decedent.,If any portion of the annuity or other
payment is receivable by the executor,it is includible in the
gross estate under this schedule to the extent that itis receivable
by the executor in his capacity as such.In general,the an-
nuity or other payment is receivable by the executor if it is to
be paid to him or if there is an agreement (expressed or im-
plied)that it will be applied by the beneficiary for the benefit
,of the estate (such as in discharge of the estate's liability for"
death taxes or debts of the decedent,etc.)or that its distribu-
tion will be governed to any extent by the terms of the dece-
dent's will or the laws of descent and distribution.If data
available to him does not indicate whether the plan satisfies the
requirements of section 401 (a)or 403 (a),the executor may
obtain information relative thereto from the district director of
internal revenue for the district in which the employer has his
principal place of business.For further details,see the estate
tax regulations issued pursuant to section 2039 of the Code.
5.Execution of schedule.-In describing an annuity,the name
and address of the grantor of the annuity should be given,or

duration of the term and the date on which it began should be
given,and if payable for the life of a person other than the
decedent,the date of birth of such person should be stated.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE J
FUNERAL EXP-ENSES AND EXPENSES INCURRED IN ADMINISTERING PROPERTY SUBJECT TO CLAIMS
Funeral expenses and expenses incurred in administering
property subject to claims should be itemized,giving names and
addresses of persons to whom payable,and exact nature of the
particular expense.Expenses incurred in administering property
not subject to claims should not be listed on this schedule.In
connection with such expenses,see the instructions for Schedule L.
The total deduction for executors'commissions should be
entered at item 1,the total deduction for attorneys'fees should
be entered at item 2,and the deductions for funeral expenses
and miscellaneous administration expenses should be itemized
under the designated sections of the schedule.An item may be
entered for deduction though the exact amount is not known at
the time the return is filed,provided it is ascertainable with
reasonable certainty,an~will be paid.No deduction may be
taken upon the basis of a vague or uncertain estimate.Pre-
serve all vouchers and receipts for inspection by an internal
revenue agent.
The executor or administrator,when filing the return,may
deduct his commissions in such an amount as has actually
been paid or which at that time it is reasonably expected will
be paid,but no deduction may be taken if no commissions are
to be collected.In case the amount of the commissions has not
been fixed by decree of the proper court,the deduction will be
allowed on the final audit of the return provided:(1)that the
district director is reasonably satisfied that the commissions
claimed will be paid;(2)that the amount entered as a deduc-
tion is within the amount allowable by the laws of the juris-
diction wherein the estate is being administered;and (3)that
it is in accordance with the usually accepted practice in said
jurisdiction in estates of similar size and character.If thecommissionsclaimedhavenotbeenpaidatthetimeofthefinal
audit of the return,the amount deducted must be supported by
an affidavit,or statement signed under the penalties of perjury.
of the executor stating that such amount has been agreed upon
and will be paid.
A bequest or devise to the executor in lieu of commissions is
not deductible.If,however,the decedent fixed by his will the
compensation payable to the executor for services to be ren-
Page 22
dered in the administration of the estate,deduction may be
taken to the extent that the amount so fixed does not exceed
the compensation allowable by the local law or practice.
Amounts paid as trustees'commissions should not be listed.
on this schedule whether received by the executor acting in
the capacity of a trustee or by a separate trustee as such.For
the deduction of such amounts incurred in administering prop-
erty not subject to claims,see the instructions for Schedule L.
When filing the return there may be deducted such an
amount of attorneys'fees as has actually been paid or whichatthattimeitisreasonablyexpectedwillbepaid.If on the
final audit of the retUl'11 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 remuneration for the services rendered,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 the final audit of the return,the amount deducted must be
supported by an affidavit,or shltement signed under the penalties
of perjury,of the executor or the attorney stating that such
amount-has been agreed upon and will be paid.
Attorney's fees incidental to litigation instituted by the
beneficiaries as to their respective interests do not constitute
a proper deduction,inasmuch as expenses of this character
are properly charged against the beneficiaries personally and
are not administration expenses as contemplated by the statute.
For the deduction of attorney's fees incurred in administering
property not subject to claims,see the instructions for Sched-
ule L.
Executors should note that executors'commissions constitute
taxable income.
Section 642 (g)of the Code provides that amounts allowed
under section 2053 or 2054 as deductions in computing the
taxable estate of a decedent are not allowable as deductions
in computing the taxable income of the estate for income tax
purposes.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE K
DEBTS OF DECEDENT
Itemize under "Debts of Decedent"only valid debts of the
decedent owed by him at the time of death.Any such indebted-
ness secured by a mortgage or other lien upon property of the
gross estate should be listed separately under the heading of
"Mortgages and Liens."If the amount of the debt is dis.puted
or the subject of litigation,only such amount may be deducted
as the estate concedes to be a valid claim.If the claim is
contested,that fact should be sta~d.
If the claim against the estate is founded upon a promise
or agreement,the deduction therefor is limited to the extentthatthe'liability was contracted'bona,fide,and'for an adequate
and full consideration in money or money~s,worth,except that
any such enforceable claim founded upon a pr'omise or agree-
ment of the decedent to.makea,contribution or gifL(such as
a pledge or a subscription)..to or'for the use of a charitable,public,i'eligious,etc.,organization is deductible to the extent
that such a deductjon would be allowable as a bequest under
the'applicable statute.
The deduction for propel:tY,taxes is limited to such taxes as
accrued prior to the date of the decedent's death.Federal
taxes on income received during decedent's lifetime are de-
ductible,but taxes on income received after death are not
deductible.j
Enter in this schedule notes unsecu'red by mortgage or other
lien and give full details,including name of payee,face and
unpaid balance,date and term of note,interest rate and date
to which interest was paid prior to de~th.Care must be taken
to state the exact nature of the claim as well as the name of
the creditor.Ifthe claim is for services rendered over a period
of time,state the ,period,covered liy the claim.Example:
Edison Electric Illuminating Co.,fQ'r electric service during
December 1954,$25.'
If the amount of the claim,is the unpaid balance due on a'contract for the purchase of any property of the gross estate,
indicate the schedule and item number where such property
is returned.If the claim represents a joint and several lia-
bility,the facts must be fully stated and the financial respon-
sibility of the co-obligor explained.
All vouchers or original records should be preserved for
inspection by an internal revenue agent.
ALLOWABLE DEATH TAXES
,Where an election is made to take a deduction under section
2053 (d)rather than a credit unde!;section 2011 or section
2014,such deduction is subject to certain limitations.If any
difficulty is experienced in computing the deduction,a request
for the computation of the deduction may be submitted (a
Page 24
reasonable time before the due date of the return)to the Com-
missioner of Internal Revenue,Washington,D.C.,20224.Such
request should be accompanied by a copy of the will and all
relevant documents,a statement showing the distribution of
the estate under the decedent's will,and a computation of the
state or foreign death tax showing the amount payable by
charJ.ty.
MORTGAGES AND LIENS
-Itemize under "Mortgages and Liens';,only obligations se-
cured by mortgages or other liens upon property included in
the gross estate'at the full value thereof,or the value of the
property undiminished by the amount of the mOl'tgage or lien.
If decedent's estate js liable for the alllount of,the,indebtedness
secured by such mortgage or lien (i.e.,if the indebtedness is
.enforceable against other property of the estate not subject to
such mortgage or lien,or if the decedent was :personally liable
therefor),the full value of the property subject to the mort-
gage or lien must be included in the gross estate uridei:the
appropriate schedule.However,if decedent's ,estate is not so
liable,only the value of the equity of redemption (or value of

Schedule K-Page 25
1NSTRUCT10NSFOR SCHEDULE M
BEQUESTS,ETC.,TO SURVIVING SPOUSE (MARITAL DEDUCTION)
1.GeneraL-In computing the taxable estate.f{)r Federal
estate tax pnrposes in'the case of the estate of a citizen or
resident of the United States,a deduction from the gross estate(the "marital deduction")is authorized f{)r.certain property
interests passing from the decedent to his surviving spouse.
The marital deduction is authorized by section 2056 of the Code.
The marital deduction may be taken only with r$pect to prop-
erty interests which are included in the decedent's gross estate
(Schedules A to I,inclusive).The deduction is generally not
available in case the gross estate consists exclusively of the
decedent's interest in property held by him and his surviving
spouse under community property laws.(See the instructions
for Schedule 0.)The marital deduction is not authorized in
the case of the estate of a nonresident not a citizen of the
United States,except where such decedent died a resident of
France.For the sake of brevity,these instructions make use
of the masculine gender in references to the deceased spouse and
the feminine gender in references to the survivor,but the de-
ductions are also authorized in the reverse situation.
2.Property interests passing from the decedent to his surviving
spouse.-The property interests included in the gross estate
which are considered to have passed from the decedent to his
surviving spouse imd as to which a marital deduction is author-
ized should be listed on Schedule M.(As to certain interests
which are to be excluded from Schedule M,see paragraph 7
hereof.)Property interests which passed from the decedent to
his surviving spouse.include any interest taken by her (a)as
decedent's legatee,devisee,heir or donee,(b)as decedent's sur-
viving tenant by the entirety or joint tenant,(c)as appointee
under decedent's exercise of a power or as taker in default upon
his release or nonexercise of a power,or (d)as beneficiary of
insurance upon the decedent's life,and also include (e)her
dower (or curtesy)interest or statutory estate in lieu thereof
(including her interest under community property laws to the
extent that such interest was,immediately prior to the dece-
dent's death,a mere expectancy).For further information as
to property interests considered to have passed from the dece-
dent to his surviving spouse,see paragraphs 3 to 6,inclusive.,
hereof.
3.Life.estate with power of appointment in surviving spouse.-
A property interest whether or not in trust,is considered as
passing from the decedent to his surviving spouse (and to no
other person)if (a)she is entitled for life to all of the income
from the entire interest;.(h)such income is payable annually .
or atmore frequent intervals;(c)she has the power,exercisable
in favor of herself or of her estate,to appointtheentire interest;
(d)such power is exercisable by her alone and (whether exer-
cisable by will or during life)is exercisable by her in all events;
and (e)no part of the entire interest is subject to a power in any
other person to appoint any part thereof to any person other
than the surviving spouse._Where the foregoing 5 conditions
are satisfied only with respect to a specific portion of the entireinterest,see the regulations issued pursuant to section 2056 (b)
of the Code for the determination of the portion thereof which
qualifies for the marital deduction.
4.Life insurance,endowment,or annuity payments,with power
of appointment in surviving spouse.-A property interest consist-
ing of the entire proceeds under a life insurance,endowment,
or annuity contract is considered as having passed from the de-
cedent to his surviving spouse,if (a)she is entitled to receive
such proceeds in installments,or is entitled to interest thereon,
with all amounts payable during the life of such spouse pay-
able only to her;(b)such installment or interest payments are
payable annually,or more frequently,commencing not later
than thirteen months after the decedent's death;(c)she has
the power,exercisable in favor of herself or of her estate,to
appoint all amounts payable under such contract;(d)such
power is exercisable by her alone and (whether exercisable by
will or during life)is exercisable by her 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 thereof to
any person other than the surviving spouse.Where the fore-
going 5 conditions are satisfied only with respect to a specific
portion of '8uch proceeds,see the regulations issued pursuanttosection2056(b)of the Code for the determinatiop of the
poi:tion thereof which qualifies for the marital deduction.
5.Common -disaster -or -similarcause.-Where (a)a property
interest was bequeathed,or otherwise disposed of,by the de-
cedent to his surviving spouse subject to a provision that suchpropertyinterestwastopasstoanotherperson(1)if such
spouse should fail to survive the decedent by 6 months (or by
a shorter period),or (2)-if the decedent and such spouse should
Page 28
die .as a result of a common disaster,and (b)the terms of the
condition (that is,the survivorship of the surviving spouse or
his failure to die in a common disaster)are fulfilled,then such
property interest is considered to have.passedfrom the decedent
solely to his surviving spouse.The fact that the exercise of
a power of appointment over the interest is subject to one of
the above conditions of .survivorship will not disqualify the
interest for the deduction if the terms of the condition (that
is,the survivorship of the surviving spouse or his failure to
die in a common disaster)are fulfilled.
6.Effec:t of disclaimer.-Any property interest disclaimed by
the surviving spouse is considered as passing to the person
entitled to receive such interest as a result of the disclaimer.
Where the surviving spouse becomes entitled to receive a prop-
erty interest as a result of a disclaimer by any other person,
such interest is considered as passing,not to such spouse,but to
the person who made the disclaimer as though the disclaimer
had not been made.
7.Property interests to be excluded from Schedule M.-Certain
property interests which passed from the decedent to his sur-
viving spouse are to be wholly or partially excluded from Sched-
ule M,as indicated below:
(a)In case interests in the same property passed from the
decedent both to his surviving spouse and (for less than an
adequate and full consideration in money or money'sworth)to
some other person upon such conditions that the latter per-
son may possess or enjoy any part of the property following
the termination or failure of the interest therein which
passed to the surviving spouse,then the interest which
passed to such spouse is to be excluded from Schedule M.
This rule applies even though the interest which passed from
the decedent to a person other than his surviving spouse is
not included in the gross estate,andirrespective of when such
interest passed.It is also immaterial whether the interest of
the surviving spouse and the interest of the other person
passed from the decedent at the same time.Property inter-ests which are considered as having passed from the decedent
to a person other than his surviving spouse include any prop-
erty interest (other than the interest which,under the rules
stated.in paragraphs 2 to 6,inclusive,are considered to have
passed to the surviving spouse)which passed under dece-,
dent's will or intestacy,or was transferred by him during
life,or is held by or devolved upon any person as his joint
tenant,as appointee under.his exercise of a power,as taker in
default upon his release or nonexercise of a power,or as bene-
ficiary of insurance upon his life.Examples of dis.positions
of property by the decedent which are to be excluded from
Schedule Mare:(1)A bequest of property to his spouse for
life,with remainder to his daughter,and (2)a bequest of
property to his mother for life,with remainder to his spouse,
if surviving,and if not,to his daughter and her heirs.In
each of these examples,the spouse's interest in the property
may terminate or fail,and the daughter may thereafter pos-
sess or enjoy the property.
(b)In case the decedent directed his executor or trusteetopurchaseforhissurvivingspouseanannuity,a life estate
or estate for years in certain property,or any other property
interest which may terminate or fail,the property to be used
in the acquisition of such interest is tobe excluded from Sched-
ule M.The ownership of a bond,note,or other contractual
obligation,the discharge of which would not have the effect
of an annuity for life or for a term,is considered not to be
a property interest which may terminateor fail.
(c)Where any property interest passingfrom the decedent
to his surviving spouse may be paid or otherwise satisfied
out of any of a group of assets,the value of such property
interest is,for the purpose of entry on Schedule M,to be
reduced by the aggregate value of any such asset or assetswhich,if passing from the decedent to his surviving s.pouse,
would be excluded under subparagraph (a)or (b)hereof.
Examples of property interests which may be paid or other-
wise satisfied out of any of a group of assets are a bequest
of the residue ofthe decedent's estate,orof a share ofthe resi-
-due,and a cash legacy payable {lutof the genffi'alestate.
Example:A decedent bequeathed $100,000 to his wife.His
general estate includes a term for years (valued at $10,000
in determining the value of his gross ~tate)in an office
building,which interest was retained by the decedent under
a deed of the building by gift to his son.Accordingly,the
portion of the value of the specific bequest to be entered on
Schedule M is $90,000.. .

the Federal estate tax,and the amount of State or other death
taxes,which are payable out of,or chargeable against the prop-
erty interests involved.(As to the computation of such amounts
in cases in which the Federal estate tax and the marital deduc-
tion are interrelated see Supplemental Instructions for Form
706 obtainable from the district director.)Such amounts of
taxes should be entered in the designated spaces (items (a)

will or any provision thereof affecting any of the interests

-------INSTRUCTIONS-FOR~SCHEDULE 0
R,E~AI!IT~LATI~N ,
1.Limitation of .deductions .under .Schedules J and K.-The
total appearing on Schedule J should be entered as item 1 of
that part of Schedule 0 headed "Deductions."The totals ap-.
pearing on Schedule K should be entered as,items 2 and 3.,
Enter total of items 1,2,and 3 as item 4.If item 4 does not
exceed the value (at the time of the decedent's death)of the
property subject to claims,'enter such total as item 5.If item 4
does exceed,tpe value (at the time of the decedent's death)of
the property subject to claims,enter as item 5 the value (at the
time of the decedent's death)of the property subject to claims
plus such excess as represents amounts paid before the date
prescribed for filing the estate tax return.See section 2053
of the Code and the regulation thereunder.
2.Computation of marital .deduction.-The net value of the
property interests listed on Schedule M should be carried for-
ward to item 9 of that part of Schedule 0 headed "Deductions."
The marital deduction,which should be entered at item 11,is
limited to the smaller of (a)item 9 or (b)one-half of the "Ad-
justed gross estate"(item'10).If the decedent and his surviv-
ing spouse never held property under community property laws,
the "Adjusted gross estate"is computed by subtracting item 8
from the total value of the gross estate.
3.Cases involving community property.-If the decedent and
his surviving spouse ever held property as "community prop-
erty"(as defined in paragraph 4),an additional sheet must be
attached to Schedule 0 showing the computation of the "Ad-
justed gross estate"(item 10).In such cases the "Adjusted
gross estate"is determined by subtracting from the "Total
Gross Estate"the sum of the following values and amounts:
(a)The value of property included in the gross estate
which was at the time of the death of the decedent held bythemas"community property."
(b)The value of property (included in the gross estate)transferred by the decedent during his life,if at the time of
such transfer the propei:ty was held by them as "community
property."
(c)The amount (included in the gross estate)receivable
as insurance under policies upon the life of the decedent to
the extent purchased with premiums or other consideration
paid out of property held by them as "community pro,perty."
(Where a policy was purchased partly with property held by
them as "community property"and partly with other prop-
erty,the amount receivable under such policy is considered
to have been purchased with such "community property"in
the .proportion that the payments made with such "community
property"bear to the total amount paid.)
(d)An amount which bears the same ratio to item 8 oftheSchedule0asthe"Total Gross Estate"(diminished by
.the aggregate amounts .subtracted.under subparagraphs (a),,
(b),and (c)hereof)bears to the undiminished "Total Gross
Estate."
Example:The value of a decedent's gross estate is $300,000 of
which $200,000 represents his separate property and $100,000
represents his one-half interest in community property.The
separate p'roperty was inherited from his father.The deduc-
tions allowed under Schedules J to L (item 8 of Schedule 0)
total $45,000.The"Adjusted gross estate"is computed as
follows:
Value of gross estate $300,000 .
Reduction under subparagraph (a)$100,000
Reduction under subparagraph (d)(200,-000/300,000 of $45,000)30,000 130,000
Adjusted gross estate ,==$170,000
4.Definition of community property.-For the purpose of com-
puting the "Adjusted gross estate,"the term "community prop-
erty"is considered to include the following categories of
property:
(a)Property held by the decedent and surviving spouse
as community property under the law of any State or pos-
session of the United States,or any foreign country (other
than such property in which the surviving spouse had merely
an expectant interest).
(b)Separate property acquired by the decedent as a result
of a conversion (after December 31,1941)of property held
by the decedent and surviving spouse as community property(as described in subparagraph (a)hereof)into their separate
property.A conversion of community property includes a
partition thereof between the decedent and his spouse or a
transfer to themselves in joint tenancy,tenancy by the en-
tirety,or other form,of coownership,irrespective of whether
such partition or transfer was effected by a single transaction
or a series of transactions.Where the value (at the time of
the conversion)of the separate property so acquiredby the de-cedent exceeded the value (at such time)of the separate
property so acquired by the spouse,then the part of the sepa-
rate property so acquired by the decedent which is considered
as held by the decedent and his surviving spouse as com-
munity property is the same proportion thereof which the
value (at the time of the conversion)of the separate property
so acquired by the spouse is of the value (at such time)of
the separate property so acquired by the decedent.
(c)Property acquired by the decedent in exchange (by one
exchange or a series of exchanges)for separate property
resulting from a conversion of community property,as de-
scribed in subparagraph (b)hereof.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE R
CREDIT FOR TAX ON PRIOR TRANSFERS
1.General.-The term "transferee"as used in Schedule R
and in these instructions for that schedule means the decedent
for whose estate this return is filed.If the transferee receivedpropertyfromatransferorwhodiedwithin10yearsbefore,
or 2 years after,the transferee,a credit is allowable on this
return for all or a .part of the Fede'ral estate tax paid by the
transferor's estate with respect to the transfer.There is no
requirement that the property be identified in the estate of the
transferee oi:that it be in existence on the date of the trans-
feree's death.It is sufficient for the allowance of the credit
that the transfer of the propertywas subjected to Federal estate
tax in the estate of the transferor and that the specified period
of time has not elapsed.Credit may be allowed with respect
to property received as the result of the exercise or nonexerciseofapowerofappointmentwhenthepropertyisincludedinthe
gross estate of the donee of the power.Where the transferee
was the transferor's surviving spouse,no cred,it is allowed with
respect to property received from the transferor to the extent
that a marital deduction was allowed the transferor's estate in
connection therewith.No credit on this return is authorized
for Feaeral gift taxes paid in connection with the transfer of
the property to the transferee.
2.Property.-The term "property"includes any interest
(legal or equitable)of which the transferee received the bene-
ficial ownership.The transferee is considered to be the
beneficial owner of property over which he received a general
power of appointment.It does not include interests to which
the transferee received only a bare legal title,such as that of
Page 32
a trustee.Neither does it include an interest in property over
which the transferee received a power which is not a general
power of appointment.In addition to property interests inwhichthetransfereereceivedthecompleteownership,examples
of property interests wi.th respect to which the credit may be
allowed include annuities,life estates,terms for years,remain-
der interests (whether contingent or vested),and any other
interest which is less than the complete ownership of the prop-
erty,to the extent that the transferee became the beneficial
owner of the interest..
3.Maximum amount of the credit.-The maxiinum amount of
the credit'is the smaller of:
(a)the amount of the estate tax of the transferor's estate
pertaining to the transfer,or .
(b)the amount by which (A)an estate tax on the trans-
feree's estate,determined without regard to the credit pro-
vided for in this schedule exceeds (B)an estate tax on the
transferee's estate determined by excluding from the gross
estate the net value of the transfer.Where credit for a par-
ticular foreign death tax may be taken under either the stat-,
ute or a death duty convention and on this return the credit
actually is taken under the convention,then no credit for that
foreign death tax may be taken into consideration in comput-
ing estate tax "(A)"or estate tax "(B)."
The amount (a)is computed under part I of the computation
of the credit.The amount (b)is computed under part II of the computa-
tion of the credit.(-Continued on page 34)

4.Percent allowable.-(a)Where transferee predeceased
the transferor.If not more than 2 years elapsed between the
dates of death,the credit allowed is 100 percent of the maxi-
mum amount.If more than 2 years elapsed between the datesofdeath,no credit is allowed.
(b)Where transferor predeceased the transferee.The per-
cent of the maximum amount which is allowed as a credit
depends on the number of years which elapsed between the
dates of death.'It is determined in accordance with the
following table:
5;Computation of the credit.-The instructions which follow
are to be applied where credit is claimed for transfers received
from one transferor only.See instructions under "Cases in-
volving'transfers from·two or moi:e transferors"for the
manner of computing the credit in cases involving transfers
from more than one transferor..... .....PART I
Item 1.Enter the value at which the property transferred
was included in the transferor's gross estate reduced by the fol-
lowing,to the extent that they affect·the net value thereof to
the transferee,(i)the amount of any death taxes payable out
of or chargeable against the transferred property,(ii)the
amount of any mortgage or other encumbrance to which it was
subject,(iii)the amount of any obligation assumed by the
transferee in connection with the transfer,and (iv)if the
transferee was the transferor's surviving spouse,by the amount
of the marital deduction allowed the transferor's estate in
computing its Federal estate tax.
Example.Subject to the condition that B would pay $10,000
to C,A left to B,his surviving spouse,real property and bonds
which were included in A's gross estate at values of $200,000
and $75,000,respectively.The real property was subject to a
mortgage of $50,000.B was required to bear the burden of
A's Federal estate tax to the extent of $4,800 and to pay State
death taxes of $4,000.A's estate was allowed a marital deduc-
tion of $150,000 for the property which passed to B.The
amount entered in item 1.is $275,000-:-$218,~00.($1.0,909+
$50,000+$150,000+$4,800 +$4,000)=$56,200.
Item 2.Enter the value of the transferor's taxable (net)
estate,increased by the applicable exemption shown under
Schedule P or Schedule Q,and decreased by the total amountofalldeathtaxespaidinconnectionwiththetransferofprop-
erty included in the transferor's gross estate.
Example.The transferor was a citizen of the United State.s.
His taxable estate was $250,000.The Federal estate tax paId
thereon was $61,7'80.State death taxes paid by the execut?r
and the beneficiaries totaled $15,000.The amount entered In
item 2 is $250,000+$60,000-$61,780-$15,000=$233,220.
Item 3.Enter the amount of the Federal estate tax paid by
the transferor's estate,increased by the amounts allowed the
transferor's estate as (i)a credit for gift taxes,and (ii)a
credit for tax on prior transfers received from a prior trans-
feror who died during the 10-year period which immediately
preceded the decedent's death.
Item 4.Enter that proportion of item 3 which item 1 bears
to item 2.PART II
Item 5.Enter'the amount of the Federal estate tax,after
deducting the credits,if any,allowable for State death taxes,
gift taxes,and.foreign death taxes under the statute.The
amount to be entered is the amount by which the gross estate
tax (item 1,page 1)exceeds the sum of the following:The
credit for State death taxes (item 2,page 1),the credit for
Federal gift taxes (item 4,page 1),and so much of the credit
for foreign death taxes (item 6,page 1)as is allowable under
the statute.
Item 6.Enter the value of the total gross estate less the
amount entered at item 1.
Item 7.The amount to be entered at item 7 is the aggregate
of the exemption and the deductions entered in Schedule 0,
with the following adjustments,if applicable:(1)Any marital
deduction entered at line 11,Schedule 0,should here be reduced
I by the amount,if any,by which such deduction exceeds one-
Page 34-I.059-16-77750-1
Pe'rcent

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE R-Continued from pase 32
half of a reduced adjusted gross estate computed by subtracting'
the amount of item 1,Schedule R,from the amount of the ad-
justed gross estate entered at line 10,Schedule 0;and (2)any
charitable deduction entered at line 12,Schedule 0,should here
be reduced by a proportionate part thereof.Such proportion..
ate part of the deduction taken on line 12 of Schedule °is that
portion thereof which an amount A (the amount entered at
item 1 of Schedule R)bears to B (the value of the total gross
estate less the amount shown on line 8 of Schedule 0).'
Example.The following entries appear on Schedule 0:Total
gross estate-$330,000;line 8-$30,000;line 9-$160,000;line
10-$300,000;line 11-$150,000;and line 12-$10,000.The
amount appearing in item 1 of Schedule R is $15,000.Under'
these circumstances if the property entered under item 1 of
Schedule R were not included in the gross estate,the gross
estate would be $315,000,the adjusted gross estate would be
$285,000,and the'marital deduction'woUld be $142,500.The
reduction to be made on account of the charitable deduction
.$15,000 $10000)IS $500 ($330,000':'-$30,000X ;.
Item 8.Entei'item 6 minus item 7.
Item 9.Enter.the amount of the Federiil estate tax on the
reduced taxable estate (item 8),after deducting the credits,if
any,which would be allowable for State death taxes,gift taxes,
and foreign death taxes under the statute,if the gross estate
were the amount of item 6 and the deductions were those used in
determining the amount of item 7.
Item 10.Enter item 5 mfnus item 9.
PART III
Item 11.Enter.item 4 or item 10,wh~chever is the smaller.
Item 12.Enter the percent of the maximum amount which
is allowable.See "Percent allowable"on this page.
Item 13.Enter the amount obtained from multiplying 'item
11 by item 12.
6.Cases involving transfers from two or more transferors.-,
Where transfers were received from more than one transferoi:
the credit is computed in a manner slightly different from that
outlined above.The name,date of death,and address of one
transferor are entered on the Schedule R provided in the return •
and the computation with respect to transfers from that trani;l-
feror is completed through part I.The same operation is
completed on a separate copy ·of Schedule R for each of the
other transferors.The computation in part II is performed
only once,regardless Of the number of transferors.The en-
tries·for part·II .should be made on the cO,py of Schedule R
provided in the return.The amount entered in item 6 is the
total gross estate less the total of the amounts entei:ed in
items 1 of the computations made for all transferors.The ,
amount entered in item 10 is apportioned to each transferor in
the proportion that the amount entered in item 1 of the com-
putation made in connection with his transfers bears to the
total of the amounts entered in item 1 of all of the computa-
tions.Part III is computed separately for each transferor.
·Enter·in item 11 the'amount shown in item 4 or the amount
from item 10 which is apportioned to that transferor,which-
ever is the smaller,and then complete the computation'.The
total amount of the credit allowable is the total of the amounts
entered in items 13 of all the computations.The additional
copies of Schedule R on which computations are made should
be attached to the Schedule R provided in the return.
Example.C received property from A having a net value of.
$100,000 and property from B having a net value of $50,000.
A's name;date of,death,and address are entered on the Sched-
ule R provided in the }'eturn and the computation through part
I is completed with respect to the transfer from A.On an addi-tional copy of Schedule R (detached from an unused copy of
the return form)similar identifying data for B is entered,and
the computation completed through part I.'The computation
of part II is made only on the Schedule R used for the computa-
tion of the credit on A's transfers.Except for item 6,it
is made as though only one transferor were involved.The
amount entered in item 6 is the decedent's total gross estate ~
minus $150,000 ($100,000 from A plus,$50,000 from B).If,
for instance,the amount entered at item 10 is $27,000,that
amount would be apportioned to A's.transfers as follows:
$100 ~~~0,0~500 000 x $27,000=$18,000.Similarly $9,000 is ap-, + ,. .portioned to B's trans.fers..The amount entered In it~m 11
of the Schedule R used for A's transfer is the amount shown initem4orthe$18,000,whichever is the smaller.Part III of the
computation of the credit for tax paid by B's estate is completed
in a similar manner..

CREDJT FOR 'STAre DEATH TAXES AND FEDERAL GIFT TAXES
STATE DEATH TAXES
Credit is allowed for estate,inheritance,legacy,orsuccession ;
tll.?'es paid as the result of the decedent's death to any State,or l
the District of Columbia.However,seeosection 2053 (d)of the
Code and the .regulations thereunder.for exceptions and limita-
tions if an executor has elected,in certain cases,to deduct such
.taxes from the value of the gross estate.'The credit cannot
exceed an amount wbich is computed by means of Table B on
page 40,based on the value of the taxable estate shown in
'Scbedule P or SCheduieQ,as the case maybe.An anticipated
amount of credit may be claimed and the Federal estate tax
computed on the retUTIl in accordance therewith 'before the
State death taxes have been paid,but the credit cannot be
finally allowed uIilessthe State -death taxes are actually paid
and credit therefo1'·elaimedwithin 4 years after the return is
'filed (or within such further period provided by the Statute in
a case where a petition is filed with the Tax Courtof the United
States,Gl"in the ease·ofan,extension or postponement of time)
and evidence that the tax bas been paid is submitted.
The following evidence should be submitted to tbe district
director:
(1)Certificate of the proper officer of the taDng State,
or the District of 'Columbia,showing:(a)The total amount
of taxim1>osed(beforeadding interest and'penalties and .
'before allowing discount);(b)the amount of discount'al-!
lowed;(e)the amount of penalties and interest imposed or
charged;-(d)-the ·total amount actually paid in cash;and
fe)the date of payment.
(2)Such additionalpl'OOf as the -distriet ·director may
specifically request.
If practicable the evidence outlined in (1),above,should.be .
filed with the return,but if that is not convenient or possible,
it should be submitted as soon thereafter as 'practicable.
Example.The decedent,a resident of the United States,
.died .on January 31,le955.The total gross estate is .$400,000.
The value of the taxable estate shown under Schedule P is
'$265,000.Itis assumed that the maximum amount of the credi~
for State death .taxes is allowable and that no other credits
will be claimed.The amount of the gross estate tax shown in
~olumn (3)of.Table A (on'page 40)on a taxable estate equal-
mg $250,000 .IS $6'5,700.Smce $265,000 exceeds $250,000 and'
falls below $500,000.,the amount·of the gross estate tax on the
excess of $15,000 is computed at 32 percent~the rate shown in
column (4)of 'Table A.The $4,800 computed on such excess,
added to $65;700 equals $70,500,the gross estate tax.Using"
Table B (on page 40)it is determined that the maximum'
amount of the credit for State death taxes allowable in the
case of a taxable estate ,of $265,000 is $4,400.The gross estate ,
tax,$70,500,less credit for State death taxes,$4,400,equals •
$66,100,which is the "Gross estate tax less credit for State
death taxes"and is the amount which should be entered at
·item 3.As no credit either for Federal gift taxes,for tax on
plioI'transfers,or for foreign death taxes is involved,that
amount is the net·estate tax payable.The computation of the
tax in this example is .set up as follows:
1.Gross estate tax $70,500
2.Credit for State death taxes_________________________4,400
3.Gross estate tax less credit for State deathtaxes $66,100
.FEDnAt.GIFT TAXES
Credit is allowed for "Federal gift taxes"imposed by chapter
,12 of the Code and the corresponding provisions of prior laws,
on the transfer from the decedent of property which is included
in the gross estate.The credit cannot exceed that proportion
·of the gross estate tax less State death taxes that the value of
the included gift bears to the entire gross estate,reduced by the
total deductions allowed for charitable,public and similar gifts
and bequests and as a.marital deduction,For further infor-
mation see the regulations issued pursuant to section 2012 of
.the Code.

Deduc:tion of administration expenses.c:laims.etc:.-Deduction
may be taken of the proportion of expenses,claims,etc.(Sched-
ules J to L),that the value of the part of the gross estate situ-
ated in the United States beal's to the value of the entire gross
estate wherever'situated.Items of deduction may be set forth
under the appropriate Schedules J to L,irrespective of whether
they were incurred or expended within or without the United
States.The marital deduction is not available in the estate
of a nonresident not a citizen of the United States,except in
the case of a resident of FI'ance.However.no deduc:tion what·
ever may be taken unless the value of the entire gross estate
wherever situated is entered at item 3 of Sc:hedule Q.,See Gen-
eral Instruction J,page 4,for l'eal property situated outside of
the United States required to be included.The entire gross
estate must be valued as of the date of the decedent's death;
or if the alternate valuation authorized by section 2032 of the
Code is adopted,such valuation must be applied to the entire
gross estate.Adequate proof in support of items 3 and 4 of
Sc:hedule Q must be submitted;otherwise.this deduc:tion will be
disc!llowed.For this purpose there should be submitted a c:ertified
c:opy of the foreign death tax return;or.if no suc:h return was filed,
a c:ertified c:opy of the inventory of the estate together with the
sc:hedule of debts and c:harges filed with the foreign c:ourt of pro-
bate jurisdic:tion.Additional proof ma.y be required in specific
cases.
Charitable,public:,and similar gifts and bequests.-Except as '
provided otherwise by treaty,a deduction may be taken under
Schedule N only if the transfer was to a corporation or associ-
ation organized in the United States or to trustees for use in
the United States.For information relative to the deduction
allowable under the Death Tax Conventions with France and
Greece,see the regulations issued pursuant to the conventions.
Exemption.-Except as hereinafter provided,an exemption
of $2,000 is authorized in the case of a nonresident not a citizenoftheUnitedStates.,If th'e decedent was domiciled in Canada,see "Convention with Canada"below.
In the case of a'decedent who was neither a citizen nor a
resident of the United States,but who was a citizen of or
domiciled in Australia,No'rway or Switzerland,a resident of
Finland,was domiciled in France,was a citizen or subject of or
domiciled in Greece,was a national of or domiciled in Italy,or
in a case where a beneficiary was domiciled in Japan,the
Death Tax Conventions with those countries authorize,under
certain conditions,a prorated exemption in excess of $·2,000.
Also,in the case of a decedent who was a citizen of the 'United
States and who was a resident of a United States possession at
the date of his death,and who acquired his citizenship solely
by reason of his connection with such possession,and who is
therefore considered a nonresident not a citizen of the United
States,a prorated exemption in excess of $2,000 is authorized.
The prorated exemption is the proportion of,the exemption
authorized for estates of citizens and residents of the United
States that the value of the property situated in the United
States bears to the value of the entire gross estate wherever
situated.Supplemental Form 706g (Computations of Taxable
Estates)has been provided for use in computing the taxable
estate under the'provisions of the Death Tax .conventions in
the case of the estate of a resident of France or Greece not a
citizen of the United States.In ev,ery other case the taxable
estate of a nonresident not a citizen of the United States must
be computed on Schedule Q.When Form 706g is used,it con-
stitutes a part of the return,is to be substituted for Schedule
Q and should be inserted in lieu of page 35.
Convention with Canada.-Our present convention with
Canada exempts from Federal estate tax certain estates of non-
resident alien decedents who were domiciled in Canada and died
after December 31,1958.'The convention also contains a provi-
sion preventing the estate tax from reducing below $15,000 the
value of the estate of such a decedent which is subject totax.If
the value of the taxable estate,before allowance of the specific
exemption of $2,000,does not exceed $15,000,the estate is
exempt from estate tax.If the.value,befol'e allowance of the
specific exemption is less than $15,932.59,the gross tax (item 1,
page 1)is equal to the amount inexcess of $15,000.For ex-
ample,if the value is $15,500,the,gross tax.on the taxable estate
is $500.If the value of the taxable estate before allowance of
the specific exemption is more than $15,932.58,the estate tax.is
to be calculated by the use of Table A,'page 40,after allowance
of the specific exemption.The prorated exemption (item 7,
schedule Q)is not allowable under our present convention with
Canada,but may be allowable in cases where the prior conven-tion is applicable,
