Future Developments

For the latest information about
developments related to Form 5471, its
schedules, and its instructions, such as
legislation enacted after they were
published, go to IRS.gov/Form5471.

What’s New

On Form 5471 and separate schedules, in
entry spaces that request identifying
information with respect to a foreign entity,
taxpayers will no longer have the option to
enter “FOREIGNUS” or “APPLIED FOR.”
Instead, if a foreign entity does not have
an EIN, the taxpayer must enter a
reference ID number that uniquely
identifies the foreign entity. Also, if a U.S.
shareholder is required to file Schedule A

Feb 10, 2022

(Form 8992) or Schedule B (Form 8992)
with respect to the CFC, the reference ID
number on Form 5471 and the reference
ID number on Schedule A (Form 8992) or
Schedule B (Form 8992) for that CFC
must be the same. See Reference ID
Number, later, for details.
Changes to Form 5471. On page 5 of
Form 5471, five questions on Schedule G
pertaining to cost sharing arrangements
have been moved to new separate
Schedule G-1 and all subsequent
questions have been renumbered
accordingly. Also, Schedule G, question
9b has been modified to clarify that a
functional currency amount is being
requested. Finally, on Schedule G, new
question 18 is asked to determine if the
taxpayer has selected the safe haven
rules of Regulations sections 1.482-2(a)
(2)(iii)(B) and new question 19 is asked to
determine if the filer has made
distributions or acquisitions that are
funded by a related party loan.
Changes to separate Schedule E
(Form 5471). With respect to line a at the
top of page 1 of Schedule E, there is a
new code “TOTAL” that is required for
Schedule E and Schedule E-1 filers in
certain circumstances. Form 5471 filers
generally use the same category of filer
codes used on Form 1118. However, in
the case of Schedule E (Form 5471) filers,
if a foreign corporation has more than one
of those categories of income, the filer
must also complete and file a separate
Schedule E (including Schedule E-1)
using code “TOTAL” that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column of
all other Schedules E and E-1.
New line c has been added at the top
of Schedule E to accommodate reporting
of treaty countries in cases where a
resource by treaty code is entered on line
a. See Schedule E, Lines a, b, and c,
later, for details.
On page 1, Schedule E, Part I, Section
1, new column (c) (unsuspended taxes)
requires taxpayers to check the box in that
column in cases where taxes were
previously suspended under section 909
and the related income is now being taken
into account in the current year.
Cat. No. 49959G

On page 1, Schedule E, Part I, Section
2, for purposes of clarification, the title of
Section 2 has been amended as “Taxes
Deemed Paid by Foreign Corporation.”
On page 1, Schedule E, Part I, Section
2, for purposes of clarification, columns (a)
and (b) now request the name and EIN or
reference ID number of the lower-tier
distributing foreign corporation.
On page 2, Schedule E, Part II, column
(g) has been repurposed to request taxes
suspended under section 909.
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1 now
requests all amounts to be entered in U.S.
dollars. Previously, column (c) requested
amounts in functional currency.
On page 2, Schedule E-1, columns (a),
(b), and (c) have been repurposed. These
columns now request information
pertaining to subpart F income, tested
income, and residual income,
respectively. Also, information pertaining
to hovering deficits is no longer reported in
column (d). Only information pertaining to
suspended taxes is now reported in
column (d). These changes to columns (a)
through (d) take into account that
post-TCJA, taxes paid or accrued by a
CFC are only relevant for foreign tax credit
purposes if they are current year taxes.
Former columns (a) through (d), pertaining
to current E&P, post-1986 undistributed
earnings (post-1986 and pre-2018 section
959(c)(3) balances), pre-1987 E&P not
previously taxed (pre-1987 section 959(c)
(3) balance), and hovering deficit and
suspended taxes, respectively, had been
retained in post-2017 domestic corporate
tax years to account for the fact that some
pre-TCJA enactment rules continued to
apply in the domestic corporation's tax
years beginning after 2017 if such
domestic corporation owned the foreign
corporation through certain pass-through
entities. It would be very rare in 2021 for a
domestic corporation to have taxes
deemed paid under section 902 on
distributions with respect to a pre-2018
foreign corporate tax year.
As a result of the changes indicated in
the previous paragraph, a preprinted zero
has been inserted on line 1a of columns
(a), (b), and (c) of Schedule E-1, given that
only current year taxes are relevant. In

addition, lines 1b, 1c, and 2 have been
shaded in columns (a), (b), (c), and (d),
and a pre-printed zero has been inserted
on line 16 of columns (a), (b), and (c).
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1,
line 5b (taxes reclassified as related to
hovering deficit after nonrecognition
transactions) of the previous revision has
been deleted. As a result, previous line 5a
is now line 5.
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1
combines former lines 9 and 10 on one
line 9 to report both taxes deemed paid
with respect to inclusions under sections
951(a)(1) and 951A and clarifies that
amounts may only be reported in columns
(a) and (b) with respect to line 9. As a
result, line 9 has been renamed “taxes
deemed paid with respect to inclusions”
and all subsequent lines of Schedule E-1
have been renumbered, as appropriate.
Also, line 9 has been shaded with respect
to all columns other than columns (a) and
(b).
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1
former line 11 is now line 10 and clarifies
that only columns (d) and (e)(i) through (e)
(x) may have entries on line 10. As a
result, Schedule E-1, line 10, columns (a),
(b), and (c) have been shaded.
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1,
line 14 (taxes related to hovering deficits
offset of undistributed post-transaction
E&P) of the previous revision has been
deleted. This line 14 was deleted to
comport with the clarification in proposed
Regulations section 1.367(b)-7(g)
concerning hovering deficits (REG–
101657–20 (November 12, 2020)). As a
result of the deletion of line 14, all
subsequent lines have been renumbered,
as appropriate.
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1,
former line 15 is now line 13 and now
requests filers to combine lines 8 through
12 in columns (a), (b), and (c).
On pages 2 and 3, Schedule E-1,
former line 16 is now line 14 and has been
reserved for future use.
On page 2, Schedule E-1, former
line 18 is now line 16 (balance of taxes
paid or accrued at beginning of the next
year), and, as a result of the changes
listed above, line 16 now instructs filers
that line 16, columns (a), (b), and (c), must
always equal zero. So, if necessary, enter
negative amounts on line 15 of columns
(a), (b), and (c) in amounts sufficient to
reduce line 13, columns (a), (b), and (c) to
zero. For the remaining columns, combine
lines 8 through 12.
New separate Schedule G-1. This new
schedule is used by U.S. persons to report
information with respect to certain foreign
corporations that were participants in any
cost sharing arrangement during the tax
year. For example, the schedule is used to

report the foreign corporation’s intangible
development costs, and reasonably
anticipated benefits share, and the U.S.
participant’s platform contributions for the
tax year. Only those answering yes to
Form 5471, Schedule G, question 7 are
required to complete and file separate
Schedule G-1.
Note. Schedule G-1 is a separate
schedule because filers may be required
to complete the schedule multiple times.
Specifically, if the foreign corporation was
a controlled participant (as defined in
Regulations section 1.482-7(j)) in more
than one cost sharing arrangement (as
defined in Regulations section 1.482-7(b))
during the tax year, the filer is required to
complete Schedule G-1 for each cost
sharing arrangement.
Changes to separate Schedule H
(Form 5471). Line 2g has been modified
to update the references to Schedule E,
due to changes made to that schedule.
New line 5c(iii)(D) was added so that a
taxpayer can enter requested information
for four sanctioned countries with respect
to the section 901(j) category. The
purpose of this new line is to eliminate the
need for an attachment to this separate
Schedule H.
The instructions for Schedule H, line 2i,
have been revised to clarify that taxpayers
must report an adjustment if U.S. GAAP
income reported on Schedule C includes
any expenses or income related to PTEP
that should not be included in current year
E&P.
Changes to separate Schedule I-1
(Form 5471). On lines 1 and 2, the
phrase “(see instructions if cost of goods
sold exceed gross receipts)” has been
inserted after “gross income” (on line 1)
and “exclusions” (on line 2). These
changes were made because it is possible
that, in certain circumstances, a taxpayer
may have a negative amount to enter on
line 1 or on one or more of the exclusion
lines (lines 2a through 2e).
On line 3, the phrase “(total of lines
2a-2e)” has been replaced with “(combine
lines 2a through 2e)” to reflect the fact that
negative amounts can be entered on lines
2a through 2e. As a result, the line 3 result
can be positive or negative.
On lines 4 and 6, the phrase “(see
instructions)” has been inserted at the end
of these line descriptions. The instructions
explain how the subtractions are made
and examples have been added for
purposes of clarity. See the instructions for
Schedule I-1, Line 4 and Line 6, later, for
details.
Changes to separate Schedule J
(Form 5471). No changes have been
made to this schedule. Use the December
2020 revision of the schedule. However,
-2-

see the instructions for Schedule J, later,
for changes that affect how the schedule
is completed.
Changes to separate Schedule M
(Form 5471). New lines 13 and 28 were
added for reporting loan guarantee fees
received (line 13) and loan guarantee fees
paid (line 28). Also, new lines 14 and 29
were added for reporting “other amounts
received” (line 14) and “other amounts
paid” (line 29). As a result of the addition
of these new lines, all subsequent lines of
Schedule M have been renumbered, as
appropriate. See the instructions for
Schedule M, later, for additional
information, including the information
required on the required statement for
lines 14 and 29.
Changes to separate Schedule O
(Form 5471). No changes have been
made to Schedule O (Form 5471). Use the
December 2012 revision of the schedule.
Changes to separate Schedule P
(Form 5471). No changes have been
made to this schedule. Use the December
2020 revision of the schedule. However,
see the instructions for Schedule P, later,
for changes that affect how the schedule
is completed. For example, with respect to
line a at the top of page 1 of Schedule P,
there is a new code “TOTAL” that is
required for Schedule P filers in certain
circumstances. Form 5471 filers generally
use the same category of filer codes used
on Form 1118. However, in the case of
Schedule P (Form 5471) filers, if a foreign
corporation has more than one of those
categories of income, the filer must also
complete and file a separate Schedule P
using code “TOTAL” that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column of
all other Schedules P.
Changes to separate Schedule Q. No
changes have been made to this
schedule. Use the December 2020
revision of the schedule. However, see the
instructions for Schedule Q, later, for
changes that affect how the schedule is
completed. For example, with respect to
line A at the top of page 1 of Schedule Q,
there is a new code “TOTAL” that is
required for Schedule Q filers in certain
circumstances. Form 5471 filers generally
use the same category of filer codes used
on Form 1118. However, in the case of
Schedule Q (Form 5471) filers, if a foreign
corporation has more than one of those
categories of income, the filer must also
complete and file a separate Schedule Q
using code “TOTAL” that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column of
all other Schedules Q.
Changes to separate Schedule R. No
changes have been made to this
schedule. Use the December 2020
revision of the schedule. However, see the
instructions for Schedule R, later, for
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

changes that affect how the schedule is
completed.
Changes to the Instructions for Form
5471 and separate schedules. The
instructions have been updated for each
of the aforementioned changes to Form
5471 and separate schedules. In addition:
• Changes have been made throughout
these instructions based on final
regulations (REG -101657-20 (November
12, 2020)).
• Section 111 of the Taxpayer Certainty
and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020
extended the look-through rule of section
954(c)(6). The rule now applies to tax
years of foreign corporations beginning
after December 31, 2005, and before
January 1, 2026, and to tax years of U.S.
shareholders with or within which such tax
years of the foreign corporations end.
Continue to exclude the applicable types
of income specified in section 954(c)(6)
from Worksheet A, line 1a, for the period
specified in the previous sentence.

General Instructions
Purpose of Form

Form 5471 is used by certain U.S.
persons who are officers, directors, or
shareholders in certain foreign
corporations. The form and schedules are
used to satisfy the reporting requirements
of sections 6038 and 6046, and the
related regulations.

Who Must File

Generally, all U.S. persons described in
Categories of Filers, below, must
complete the schedules, statements,
and/or other information requested in the
chart, Filing Requirements for Categories
of Filers, later. Read the information for
each category carefully to determine
which schedules, statements, and/or
information apply.
Note. When a schedule is required but all
amounts are zero, the schedule should
still be filed with one or more zero
amounts. For schedules that are
completed by category (that is,
Schedule E, I-1, J, P and Q), inclusion of a
single instance of that schedule for any
separate category will meet the
requirement.
If the filer is described in more than one
filing category, do not duplicate
information. However, complete all items
that apply. For example, if you are the sole
owner of a CFC (that is, you are described
in Categories 4 and 5a), complete all six
pages of Form 5471 and separate
Schedules E, G-1, H, I-1, J, M, P, Q, and
R.

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Note. Complete a separate Form 5471
and all applicable schedules for each
applicable foreign corporation.

• The U.S. shareholder has previously
taxed E&P related to section 965 that is
reportable on Schedule P (Form 5471).

When and Where To File

Category 1a Filer

Attach Form 5471 to your income tax
return (or, if applicable, partnership or
exempt organization return) and file both
by the due date (including extensions) for
that return.

Categories of Filers
Category 1 Filers

These categories are for a U.S.
shareholder of a foreign corporation that is
a section 965 specified foreign corporation
(SFC) (defined below) at any time during
any tax year of the foreign corporation,
and who owned that stock on the last day
in that year on which it was an SFC, taking

965. However, see Certain Category 1
and Category 5 Filers, later, which may
apply.

A U.S. shareholder who is a Category 1
filer (defined above) must complete Form
5471 and file all information required of a
Category 1a filer if that U.S. shareholder
does not qualify as a Category 1b or 1c
filer.

shareholder, later, for instructions
pertaining to when Form 5471 may be

classes of voting stock of a section 965
SFC or, in the case of a tax year of a
foreign corporation beginning after
December 31, 2017, 10% or more of the
total combined voting power or value of
shares of all classes of stock of a section
965 SFC.

Category 2 Filer

U.S. person. See Category 5 Filers, later,
for definition.

A U.S. person has acquired stock in a
foreign corporation when that person has
an unqualified right to receive the stock,
even though the stock is not actually
issued. See Regulations section
1.6046-1(f)(1) for more details.

Section 965 specified foreign corporation (SFC). For purposes of Category 1
filers, an SFC (as defined in section 965)
is:
1. A CFC (see Category 5 Filers, later,
for definition), or
2. Any foreign corporation with
respect to which one or more domestic
corporations is a U.S. shareholder.
However, if a passive foreign
investment company (as defined in
section 1297) with respect to the
shareholder is not a CFC, then such
corporation is not a section 965 SFC.
See section 965 and the regulations
thereunder for exceptions.
Note. A U.S. shareholder who is a
Category 1 filer (defined above) must
continue to file all information required
(see below) as long as:
• The section 965 SFC has accumulated
E&P related to section 965 that is
reportable on Schedule J (Form 5471), or

-3-

resident who is an officer or director of a
foreign corporation in which a U.S. person
(defined below) has acquired (in one or
more transactions):
1. Stock which meets the 10% stock
ownership requirement (described below)
with respect to the foreign corporation, or
2. An additional 10% or more (in value
or voting power) of the outstanding stock
of the foreign corporation.

10% stock ownership requirement. For
purposes of Category 2 and Category 3,
the stock ownership threshold is met if a
U.S. person owns:
1. 10% or more of the total value of
the foreign corporation's stock, or
2. 10% or more of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock with
voting rights.
U.S. person. For purposes of Category 2
and Category 3, a U.S. person is:
1. A citizen or resident of the United
States,
2. A domestic partnership,
3. A domestic corporation, and
4. An estate or trust that is not a
foreign estate or trust as defined in section
7701(a)(31).
See Regulations section 1.6046-1(f)(3)
for exceptions.

Category 3 Filer

This category includes:
• A U.S. person (see Category 2 Filer,
above, for definition) who acquires stock
in a foreign corporation which, when
added to any stock owned on the date of
acquisition, meets the 10% stock
ownership requirement (described above)
with respect to the foreign corporation;
• A U.S. person who acquires stock
which, without regard to stock already
owned on the date of acquisition, meets
the 10% stock ownership requirement with
respect to the foreign corporation;
• A person who is treated as a U.S.
shareholder under section 953(c) with
respect to the foreign corporation;
• A person who becomes a U.S. person
while meeting the 10% stock ownership
requirement with respect to the foreign
corporation; or
• A U.S. person who disposes of
sufficient stock in the foreign corporation
to reduce his or her interest to less than
the 10% stock ownership requirement.
For more information, see section 6046
and Regulations section 1.6046-1.

Category 4 Filer

This category includes a U.S. person who
had control (defined below) of a foreign
corporation during the annual accounting
period of the foreign corporation.

U.S. person. For purposes of
Category 4, a U.S. person is:
1. A citizen or resident of the United
States;
2. A nonresident alien for whom an
election is in effect under section 6013(g)
to be treated as a resident of the United
States;
3. An individual for whom an election
is in effect under section 6013(h), relating
to nonresident aliens who become
residents of the United States during the
tax year and are married at the close of
the tax year to a citizen or resident of the
United States;
4. A domestic partnership;
5. A domestic corporation; and
6. An estate or trust that is not a
foreign estate or trust as defined in section
7701(a)(31).
See Regulations section 1.6038-2(d)
for exceptions.
Control. A U.S. person has control of a
foreign corporation if, at any time during
that person's tax year, it owns stock
possessing:
1. More than 50% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of
stock of the foreign corporation entitled to
vote, or

2. More than 50% of the total value of
shares of all classes of stock of the foreign
corporation.
A person in control of a corporation
that, in turn, owns more than 50% of the
combined voting power, or the value, of all
classes of stock of another corporation is
also treated as being in control of such
other corporation.
Example. Corporation A owns 51% of
the voting stock in Corporation B.
Corporation B owns 51% of the voting
stock in Corporation C. Corporation C
owns 51% of the voting stock in
Corporation D. Therefore, Corporation D
is controlled by Corporation A.
For more details on “control,” see
Regulations sections 1.6038-2(b) and (c).

Category 5 Filers

These categories include a U.S.
shareholder who owns stock in a foreign
corporation that is a CFC at any time
during any tax year of the foreign
corporation, and who owned that stock on
the last day in that year on which it was a
CFC. However, see Certain Category 1
and Category 5 Filers, later, which may
apply.
U.S. shareholder. For purposes of
Category 5 filers, a U.S. shareholder is a
U.S. person who:
1. Owns (directly, indirectly, or
constructively, within the meaning of
sections 958(a) and (b)) 10% or more of
the total combined voting power of all
classes of voting stock of a CFC or, in the
case of a tax year of a foreign corporation
beginning after December 31, 2017, 10%
or more of the total combined voting
power or value of shares of all classes of
stock of a CFC; or
2. Owns (either directly or indirectly,
within the meaning of section 958(a)) any
stock of a CFC (as defined in sections
953(c)(1)(B) and 957(b)), unless the
foreign corporation has an effective
section 953(c)(3)(C) election in place for
the tax year.
U.S. person. For purposes of
Category 5 filers, a U.S. person is:
1. A citizen or resident of the United
States,
2. A domestic partnership,
3. A domestic corporation, and
4. An estate or trust that is not a
foreign estate or trust, as defined in
section 7701(a)(31).
See section 957(c) for exceptions.

that own (directly, indirectly, or
constructively, within the meaning of

Penalties
Failure to file information required by
section 6038(a) (Form 5471 and
Schedule M).
• A $10,000 penalty is imposed for each
annual accounting period of each foreign
corporation for failure to furnish the
information required by section 6038(a)
within the time prescribed. If the
information is not filed within 90 days after
the IRS has mailed a notice of the failure
to the U.S. person, an additional $10,000
penalty (per foreign corporation) is
charged for each 30-day period, or
fraction thereof, during which the failure
continues after the 90-day period has
expired. The additional penalty is limited
to a maximum of $50,000 for each failure.
• Any person who fails to file or report all
of the information required within the time
prescribed will be subject to a reduction of
10% of the foreign taxes available for
credit under sections 901 and 960. If the
failure continues 90 days or more after the
date the IRS mails notice of the failure to
the U.S. person, an additional 5%
reduction is made for each 3-month
period, or fraction thereof, during which
the failure continues after the 90-day
period has expired. See section 6038(c)
(2) for limits on the amount of this penalty.
See Regulations sections 1.6038-1(j) and
1.6038-2(k)(3) for alleviation of this

date the IRS mails notice of the failure, an
additional $10,000 penalty will apply for
each 30-day period, or fraction thereof,
during which the failure continues after the
90-day period has expired. The additional
penalty is limited to a maximum of
$50,000. See section 6679.
Criminal penalties. Criminal penalties
under sections 7203, 7206, and 7207 may
apply for failure to file the information

such portion of the underpayment and the
taxpayer acted in good faith with respect
to such portion of the underpayment. See
sections 6662(j) and 6664(c) for additional
information.
Inapplicability of certain penalties.
Certain penalties under sections 6038 and
6662 may be waived for certain persons
under Rev. Proc. 2019-40. See section 7
of Rev. Proc. 2019-40 for more details.

Other Reporting
Requirements
Reporting exchange rates on Form
5471. When translating amounts from
functional currency to U.S. dollars, you
must use the method specified in these
instructions. For example, when
translating amounts to be reported on
Schedule E, you must generally use the
average exchange rate as defined in
section 986(a). But, regardless of the
specific method required, all exchange
rates must be reported using a “divide-by
convention” rounded to at least four
places. That is, the exchange rate must be
reported in terms of the amount by which
the functional currency amount must be
divided in order to reflect an equivalent
amount of U.S. dollars. As such, the
exchange rate must be reported as the
units of foreign currency that equal one
U.S. dollar, rounded to at least four
places. Do not report the exchange rate
-7-

as the number of U.S. dollars that equal
one unit of foreign currency.
Note. You must round the result to more
than four places if failure to do so would
materially distort the exchange rate or the
equivalent amount of U.S. dollars.
Example. During its annual
accounting period, the foreign corporation
paid income taxes of 30,255,400 Yen to
Japan. The Schedule E instructions
specify that the foreign corporation must
translate these amounts into U.S. dollars
at the average exchange rate for the tax
year to which the tax relates in
accordance with the rules of section
986(a). The average exchange rate is
108.8593 Japanese Yen to one U.S. dollar
or (0.009184) U.S. dollar to one Japanese
Yen. The foreign corporation divides
30,255,400 Yen by 108.8593 to determine
the U.S. dollar amount to enter in column
(l) of Schedule E, Part I, Section 1, line 1.
Line 1 of Schedule E, Part I, Section 1, is
completed in relevant part as follows.
• Enter the name of the payor entity in
column (a).
• Enter the payor entity’s EIN or
reference ID number in column (b).
• Enter "JA" in column (d).
• Enter “JPY” in column (i).
• Enter "30,255,400 Yen" in column (j).
• Enter "108.8593" in column (k).
• Enter "277,931" in column (l).

Computer-Generated
Form 5471 and Schedules

Generally, all computer-generated forms
must receive prior approval from the IRS
and are subject to an annual review.
However, see the Exception below.
Requests for approval may be submitted
electronically to substituteforms@irs.gov,
or requests may be mailed to:
Internal Revenue Service
Attention: Substitute Forms Program
SE:W:CAR:MP:P:TP
1111 Constitution Ave. NW
Room 6554
Washington, DC 20224
Exception. If a computer-generated
Form 5471 and its schedules conform to
and do not deviate from the official form
and schedules, they may be filed without
prior approval from the IRS.
Important. Be sure to attach the approval
letter to Form 5471. However, if the
computer-generated form is identical to
the IRS-prescribed form, it does not need
to go through the approval process, and
an attachment is not necessary.
Every year, the IRS issues a revenue
procedure to provide guidance for filers of
computer-generated forms. In addition,
every year the IRS issues Pub. 1167,
General Rules and Specifications for

Substitute Forms and Schedules, which
reprints the most recent applicable
revenue procedure. Pub. 1167 is available
at IRS.gov/Pub. 1167.

Dormant Foreign Corporations
Rev. Proc. 92-70, 1992-2 C.B. 435,
provides a summary filing procedure for
filing Form 5471 for a dormant foreign
corporation (defined in section 3 of Rev.
Proc. 92-70). This summary filing
procedure will satisfy the reporting
requirements of sections 6038 and 6046.

If you elect the summary procedure,
complete only page 1 of Form 5471 for
each dormant foreign corporation as
follows.
• The top margin of the summary return

File this summary return in the manner
described in When and Where To File,
earlier.

Treaty-Based Return Positions

You are generally required to file
Form 8833, Treaty-Based Return Position
Disclosure Under Section 6114 or
7701(b), to disclose a return position that
any treaty of the United States (such as an
income tax treaty, an estate and gift tax
treaty, or a friendship, commerce, and
navigation treaty):
• Overrides or modifies any provision of
the Internal Revenue Code; and
• Causes, or potentially causes, a
reduction of any tax incurred at any time.
See Form 8833 for exceptions.
Failure to make a required disclosure
may result in a $1,000 penalty ($10,000
for a C corporation). See section 6712.

Section 362(e)(2)(C) Elections

The transferor and transferee in certain
section 351 transactions may make a joint
election under section 362(e)(2)(C) to limit
the transferor's basis in the stock received
instead of the transferee's basis in the
transferred property. The election is made
by a statement as provided in Regulations
section 1.362-4(d)(3).

!

Do not attach the statement
described above to Form 5471.

CAUTION

Section 108(i) Elections

If the controlling domestic shareholder(s)
of a CFC made an election in 2009 or

2010 to defer income from cancellation of
debt in connection with the CFC’s
reacquisition of an applicable debt
instrument, a statement must be filed (in
the manner specified in the Caution
below) beginning with the tax year
following the tax year for which the
controlling domestic shareholder of the
CFC made the election, and ending the
first tax year all income deferred has been
included in income. In addition, a copy of
the election statement it filed to make the
election to defer income must be filed
annually (also in the manner specified in
the Caution below). For details, see
section 108(i) and Rev. Proc. 2009-37,
2009-36 I.R.B. 309, available at
IRS.gov/irb/2009-36_IRB#RP-2009-37.
Do not attach the statements
described above to Form 5471.
CAUTION Instead, if the foreign corporation
is required to file a U.S. income tax return
(for example, Form 1120-F), attach the
statements to that return.

!

Corrections to Form 5471

If you file a Form 5471 that you later
determine is incomplete or incorrect, file a
corrected Form 5471 with an amended tax
return, using the amended return
instructions for the return with which you
originally filed Form 5471. Write
"Corrected" at the top of the form and
attach a statement identifying the
changes.

Specific Instructions
Important. If the information required in a
given section exceeds the space provided
within that section, do not write “See
attached” in the section and then attach all
of the information on additional sheets.
Instead, complete all entry spaces in the
section and attach the remaining
information on additional sheets. The
additional sheets must conform with the
IRS version of that section.

Identifying Information
Annual Accounting Period

Enter, in the space provided below the title
of Form 5471, the annual accounting
period of the foreign corporation for which
you are furnishing information. Except for
information contained on Schedule O,
report information for the tax year of the
foreign corporation that ends with or within
your tax year. When filing Schedule O,
report acquisitions, dispositions, and
organizations or reorganizations that
occurred during your tax year.
Section 898 specified foreign corporation (SFC). The annual accounting
period of an SFC (as defined in section
898) is generally required to be the tax
-8-

year of the corporation's majority U.S.
shareholder. If there is more than one
majority shareholder, the required tax year
will be the tax year that results in the least
aggregate deferral of income to all U.S.
shareholders of the foreign corporation.
For these purposes, section 898(b)
defines an SFC as any foreign
corporation:
1. That is treated as a CFC under
subpart F, and
2. In which more than 50% of the total
voting power or value of all classes of
stock of the corporation is treated as
owned by a U.S. shareholder.
For more information, see section 898
and Rev. Proc. 2006-45, 2006-45 I.R.B.
851, available at IRS.gov/irb/

Check the box on line F if Form 5471 has
been completed using alternative
information (as defined in section 3.01 of
Rev. Proc. 2019-40).

Section 5 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40
provides a safe harbor for determining
certain items, including taxable income
and E&P, of certain CFCs based on
alternative information. Specifically, in the
case of a foreign-controlled CFC with
respect to which there is no related
section 958(a) U.S. shareholder, if
information satisfying the requirements of
Regulations sections 1.952-2(a), (b), and
(c)(2) and section 964 and the regulations
thereunder is not readily available to an
unrelated section 958(a) U.S. shareholder
or an unrelated constructive U.S.
shareholder with respect to the
foreign-controlled CFC, an amount
reported on a Form 5471 may be
determined by the unrelated section
958(a) U.S. shareholder or the unrelated
constructive U.S. shareholder, as
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

applicable, on the basis of alternative
information (without adjustments other
than those described in section 3.01(b)
and 3.10 of the revenue procedure) with
respect to the foreign-controlled CFC. See
section 3 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40 for
definitions of terms.
Section 6 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40
provides a safe harbor for determining
certain items of certain SFCs based on
alternative information. Specifically, in the
case of an SFC, other than either a
foreign-controlled CFC with respect to
which there is no related section 958(a)
U.S. shareholder or a U.S. controlled
CFC, if information satisfying the
requirements of section 964 and the
regulations thereunder is not readily
available to an unrelated section 958(a)
U.S. shareholder or an unrelated
constructive U.S. shareholder with respect
to the SFC, an amount reported on a Form
5471 may be determined by the unrelated
section 958(a) U.S. shareholder or the
unrelated constructive U.S. shareholder,
as applicable, on the basis of alternative
information (without adjustments other
than those described in sections 3.01(b)
and 3.10 of the revenue procedure) with
respect to the SFC. See section 3 of Rev.
Proc. 2019-40 for definitions of terms.

described in code “03” above qualifies as
alternative information only if information
described in code “01” and “02” is not
readily available.
For more information, see Rev. Proc.
2019-40.

Item H—Person(s) on Whose
Behalf This Information Return
Is Filed

One person may file Form 5471 and the
applicable schedules for other persons
who have the same filing requirements.
See Multiple filers of same information,
earlier. The person that files the required
information on behalf of other persons
must complete a joint Form 5471
according to the applicable column(s) of
the Filing Requirements for Categories of
Filers, earlier. This includes completing
Item H on page 1 of the form. When
completing Item H with respect to
members of a consolidated group, identify
only the direct owners in Item H
(constructive owners are not required to
be listed).
A separate Schedule I must be filed for
each person described in Category 4, 5a,
or 5b. For each Category 4, 5a, or 5b filer
that is required to file a Schedule I, send a
copy of their separate Schedule I to them
to assist them in completing their tax
return.

Filing requirements for persons identified in Item H. Except for members of
the filer's consolidated return group, all
persons identified in Item H must attach a
statement to their tax returns that includes
the following information.
• The name, address, and EIN (or
reference ID number) of the foreign
corporation(s).
• A statement that their filing
requirements with respect to the foreign
corporation(s) have been or will be
satisfied.
• The name, address, and identifying
number of the taxpayer on the return with
which the information was or will be filed.
• The IRS Service Center where the
return was or will be filed. If the return was
or will be filed electronically, enter “e-file.”
Exception. If the person who is filing
Form 5471 on behalf of others is married
to a person identified in Item H and they
are filing Form 1040 jointly, the statement
described above does not have to be
attached to the jointly filed Form 1040.

All persons identified in Item H
must complete a separate
CAUTION Schedule P (Form 5471) if the
person is a U.S. shareholder described in
Category 1a, 1b, 4, 5a, or 5b. In such a
case, the Schedule P must be attached to
the statement described above.

!

Item 1b(2)—Reference ID
Number

A reference ID number (defined below) is
required on line 1b(2) only in cases where
no EIN was entered on line 1b(1) for the
foreign corporation. However, filers are
permitted to enter both an EIN on
line 1b(1) and a reference ID number on
line 1b(2). If applicable, enter the
reference ID number you have assigned to
the foreign corporation identified on
line 1a.
A "reference ID number" is a number
established by or on behalf of the U.S.
person identified at the top of page 1 of
the form that is assigned to a foreign
corporation with respect to which Form
5471 reporting is required. These
numbers are used to uniquely identify the
foreign corporation in order to keep track
of the corporation from tax year to tax
year.
The reference ID number must meet
the requirements set forth below.
Note. Because reference ID numbers are
established by or on behalf of the U.S.
person filing Form 5471, there is no need
to apply to the IRS to request a reference
ID number or for permission to use these
numbers.
Note. The reference ID number assigned
to a foreign corporation on Form 5471
generally has relevance only on Form
5471, its schedules, and any other form
that is attached to or associated with Form
5471, and generally should not be used
with respect to that foreign corporation on
any other IRS forms. However, the foreign
corporation’s reference ID number should
also be entered on Form 8858 if the
foreign corporation is listed as a tax owner
of a foreign disregarded entity (FDE) or
foreign branch (FB) on Form 8858. See
the instructions for Form 8858, line 3c(2),
for more information. Also, if a U.S.
shareholder is required to file Schedule A
(Form 8992) or Schedule B (Form 8992)
with respect to the CFC, the reference ID
number on Form 5471 and the reference
ID number used on Schedule A (Form
8992) or Schedule B (Form 8992) for that
CFC must be the same.

Requirements. The reference ID number
that is entered in Item 1b(2) must be
alphanumeric (defined later) and no
special characters or spaces are
permitted. The length of a given reference
ID number is limited to 50 characters.

The same reference ID number must
be used consistently from tax year to tax
year with respect to a given foreign
corporation. If for any reason a reference
ID number falls out of use (for example,
the foreign corporation no longer exists
due to disposition or liquidation), the
reference ID number used for that foreign
corporation cannot be used again for
another foreign corporation for purposes
of Form 5471 reporting.
For these purposes, the term
“alphanumeric” means the entry can be
alphabetical, numeric, or any combination
of the two.
Taxpayers no longer have the option of
entering “FOREIGNUS” or “APPLIED
FOR” in a column that requests an EIN or
reference ID number with respect to a
foreign entity. Instead, if the foreign entity
does not have an EIN, the taxpayer must
enter a reference ID number that uniquely
identifies the foreign entity.
There are some situations that warrant
correlation of a new reference ID number
with a previous reference ID number when
assigning a new reference ID number to a
foreign corporation. For example:
• In the case of a merger or acquisition, a
Form 5471 filer must use a reference ID
number that correlates the previous
reference ID number with the new
reference ID number assigned to the
foreign corporation; or
• In the case of an entity classification
election that is made on behalf of a foreign
corporation on Form 8832, Regulations
section 301.6109-1(b)(2)(v) requires the
foreign corporation to have an EIN for this
election. For the first year that Form 5471
is filed after an entity classification election
is made on behalf of the foreign
corporation on Form 8832, the new EIN
must be entered on line 1b(1) of Form
5471 and the old reference ID number
must be entered on line 1b(2). In
subsequent years, the Form 5471 filer
may continue to enter both the EIN on
line 1b(1) and the reference ID number on
line 1b(2), but must enter at least the EIN
on line 1b(1).
You must correlate the reference ID
numbers as follows: New reference ID
number [space] Old reference ID number.
If there is more than one old reference ID
number, you must enter a space between
each such number. As indicated above,
the length of a given reference ID number
is limited to 50 characters and each
number must be alphanumeric and no
special characters are permitted.
Note. This correlation requirement
applies only to the first year the new
reference ID number is used.

Report all information in the foreign
corporation's functional currency in
accordance with U.S. GAAP and translate
using U.S. GAAP translation principles.
If the foreign corporation uses the
DASTM under Regulations section
1.985-3, the functional currency column
should reflect local hyperinflationary
currency amounts computed in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. The U.S.
dollar column should reflect such amounts
translated into dollars under U.S. GAAP
translation rules. Differences between this
U.S. dollar GAAP column and the U.S.
dollar income or loss figured for tax
purposes under Regulations section
1.985-3(c) should be accounted for on
Schedule H. See Schedule H, Special
rules for DASTM, later.

purposes of U.S. income tax law.
If the foreign corporation is the tax
owner of an FDE or FB and you are a
Category 4, 5a, or 5c filer of Form 5471,
you are required to attach Form 8858 to
Form 5471.

Questions 4b and 4c

Schedule F

Report all information in U.S. dollars.
Generally, the foreign corporation's
balance sheet is prepared in functional
currency and translated to U.S. dollars
using U.S. GAAP translation rules. If the
foreign corporation uses DASTM, the tax
balance sheet on Schedule F should be
prepared and translated into U.S. dollars
according to Regulations section
1.985-3(d), rather than U.S. GAAP.
Lines 3 and 17. Enter the total asset
amount of derivatives on line 3 and total
amount of liability on line 17 reported in
accordance with ASC 815 (Derivatives
and Hedging). Do not net positions.

section 59A(g); and
2. The U.S. filer made or accrued a
base erosion payment to, or has a base
erosion tax benefit with respect to, the
foreign corporation.
The term “base erosion payment”
generally means any amount paid or
accrued by the U.S. filer to a foreign
corporation that is a related party to the
U.S. filer within the meaning of section
59A(g) and with respect to which a U.S.
deduction is allowed under chapter 1 of
the Code. See section 59A(d)(1). Base
erosion payments also include amounts
received or accrued by the foreign
corporation in connection with the
acquisition of depreciable or amortizable
property (section 59A(d)(2)), reinsurance
payments (section 59A(d)(3)), and certain
payments relating to expatriated entities
(section 59A(d)(4)).

The term “base erosion tax benefit”
generally means any U.S. deduction that
is allowed under chapter 1 for the tax year
with respect to any base erosion payment.
See section 59A(c)(2)(A) and (B) for
further details.

Questions 5a and 5b

If the foreign corporation paid or accrued
any interest or royalty (including in the
case of a foreign corporation that is a
partner in a partnership, the foreign
corporation’s allocable share of interest or
royalty paid by the partnership) for which a
deduction is disallowed under section
267A, check “Yes” for question 5a and
enter the total amount for which a
deduction is not allowed on line 5b. The
amount reported on line 5b should not
include disallowed deductions attributable
to interest or royalty paid or accrued by a
U.S. taxable branch of the foreign
corporation; such amounts are reported
on Form 1120-F.
Interest or royalty paid or accrued by a
foreign corporation (including through a
partnership) is subject to section 267A,
provided in general that the foreign
corporation is a CFC (and there are one or
more U.S. tax residents that own directly
or indirectly at least 10% of the stock of
the CFC). Section 267A disallows a
deduction for certain interest or royalty
paid or accrued pursuant to a hybrid
arrangement, to the extent that, under the
foreign tax law, there is not a
corresponding income inclusion (including

long-term deferral). For more detailed
instructions, see the instructions for Form
1120, Schedule K, Question 21.

Question 6

Check the “Yes” box on line 6a if the filer
of this Form 5471 is claiming a deduction
under section 250 with respect to
foreign-derived intangible income (FDII),
and enter the amounts requested on lines

on lines 6b, 6c, and 6d, translated from
functional currency at the average
exchange rate for the foreign corporation's
tax year (see section 989(b)). See Form
8993 and its instructions for information on
the section 250 deduction. If no deduction
is being claimed, check the “No” box and
go to line 7.

Question 9a

Under section 367(d), a U.S. transferor
must report an annual income inclusion
attributed to the intangible property
transferred to a foreign corporation over
the useful life of the property. Check “Yes”
if the foreign corporation received any
intangible property in a prior year or the
current tax year in an exchange under
section 351 or section 361 from a U.S.
transferor that is required to report a
section 367(d) annual income inclusion for
the tax year. If “Yes,” complete line 9b.

Question 9b

Enter in functional currency the amount of
the E&P reduction made by the foreign
corporation for the current tax year that

-12-

equals the amount required to be included
in the income of the U.S. transferor. See
section 367(d). This amount should also
be entered on Schedule H, Current
Earnings and Profits, as a net subtraction
on line 2i.

Question 10

A foreign corporation may qualify as an
expatriated foreign subsidiary under
Regulations section 1.7874-12(a)(9) if
such foreign corporation is a CFC with
respect to which an expatriated entity, as
defined in Regulations section
1.7874-12(a)(8) is a U.S. shareholder.
Certain transactions involving an
expatriated foreign subsidiary and/or its
U.S. shareholders may be subject to
special rules. If the answer to Question 10
is "Yes," attach a statement providing the
name and EIN of the domestic corporation
or partnership, as defined in Regulations
section 1.7874-12(a)(6) and the
relationship of the foreign corporation to
the domestic corporation or partnership.

Question 14

Check the "Yes" box on line 14 if you
answer “Yes” to any of the 22 questions in
the Schedule G, line 14 table below. If
"Yes," enter the Corresponding Code(s)
from the table in the entry space provided
on line 14 of the form. Enter the applicable
corresponding code in capital letters.
Enter a space between each code. Also
attach the statement described in the table

extraordinary reduction amount or tiered
extraordinary reduction amount as to any
U.S. shareholder of the foreign
corporation. See Regulations section
1.245A-5(e)(3)(i) for further guidance
regarding the election to close the tax
year. If the “Yes” box on line 17b has been
-15-

checked and the U.S. shareholder filing
the Form 5471 is a controlling section
245A shareholder of the foreign
corporation, the U.S. shareholder filing
this Form 5471 must attach an Elective
Section 245A Year-Closing Statement
pursuant to Regulations section
1.245A-5(e)(3)(i)(C) containing the
information required under Regulations
section 1.245A-5(e)(3)(i)(D).

Question 18

Check the “Yes” box if during the tax year
the reporting corporation had any loans to
or from the related party to which the safe
haven rate rules of Regulations section
1.482-2(a)(2)(iii)(B) are applicable, and for
which the reporting corporation used a
rate of interest within the safe-haven range
of Regulations section 1.482-2(a)(2)(iii)(B)
(1) (100% to 130% of the AFR for the
relevant term).

Question 19a

Note. Note. Complete lines 19a and 19b
only if the filer is a domestic corporation. In
completing these lines, do not account for
debt instruments that were issued, or

distributions or acquisitions that occurred,
before April 5, 2016. See Regulations
section 1.385-3(g)(3) and 1.385-3(b)(3)
(viii).
Check “Yes” if, during the tax year, the
filer engaged in at least one of the
transactions described in Regulations
section 1.385-3(b)(2). Also check “Yes” if,
taking into account issuances,
distributions, and acquisitions during the
tax year and previous tax years, the filer
had issued a debt instrument to the
foreign corporation during a period
described in Regulations section
1.385-3(b)(3)(iii), which addresses certain
issuances of debt instruments to related
parties within 36 months before or after
certain distributions or acquisitions by the
issuer. Otherwise, check “No.” Apply
Regulations section 1.385-3(b)(3)(iii)(E) to
determine when a debt instrument is
treated as issued for purposes of
Regulations section 1.385-3(b)(3)(iii).
Debt that the filer treats as stock
pursuant to Regulations section 1.385-3
still should be included when completing
line 19a.

Question 19b

Provide the total amount of the
transactions described in Regulations
section 1.385-3(b)(2) (as measured by the
fair market value of the distribution or, as
the case may be, the property exchanged
for the debt instrument), and of the
distributions and/or acquisitions described
in Regulations section 1.385-3(b)(3)(i) (as
measured by the fair market value of the
property distributed and/or acquired).
Provide the total amount (as measured
by issue price in the case of an instrument
treated as stock upon issuance, or
adjusted issue price in the case of an
instrument deemed exchanged for stock)
of the debt instrument issuances
addressed by line 19a. See Regulations
section 1.385-1(d)(1) and 1.385-3(d). The
adjusted issue price of a debt instrument
is the issue price increased by the amount
of original issue discount previously
includible in gross income of any holder
and decreased by payments other than
payments of stated interest. See section
1272(a)(4) and Regulations section
1.1275-1(b)(1).

Schedule I

Use Schedule I to report in U.S. dollars the
U.S. shareholder's pro rata share of
income from the foreign corporation
reportable under subpart F and other
income realized from a corporate
distribution.
Certain filers may be able to use
alternative information (as defined in
section 3.01 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40) to
determine certain amounts in this

schedule. See the specific instructions for
Item F—Alternative Information Under
Rev. Proc. 2019-40, earlier, for more
details.
Note. A separate Schedule I must be
filed by or for each Category 4, 5a, or 5b
U.S. shareholder of the foreign
corporation with respect to which reporting
is furnished on this Form 5471.

Line 1
Subpart F income. U.S. shareholders of
CFCs with subpart F income must report
that income on their tax returns. For more
information, see sections 245A, 951, 952,
and 964(e).
Note. Certain current year deficits of a
member of the same chain of corporations
may be considered in determining subpart
F income. See section 952(c)(1)(C).

Line 1a

Corporate U.S. shareholders should enter
the foreign-source portion of any subpart F
income inclusions attributable to the sale
or exchange by a CFC of stock of another
foreign corporation that is eligible for the
section 245A dividends received
deduction pursuant to section 964(e)(4).
Include the amount, if any, that is not
eligible for the section 245A dividends
received deduction pursuant to section
964(e)(4) on line 1e. Noncorporate U.S.
shareholders should leave line 1a blank.

Line 1b

Enter the amount of the U.S. shareholder’s
subpart F income inclusion attributable to
tiered hybrid dividends received by the
CFC. In general, a dividend received by a
CFC from another CFC is a tiered hybrid
dividend to the extent of the sum of the
receiving CFC's hybrid deduction
accounts with respect to shares of stock of
the CFC that pays the dividend. As to a
domestic corporation that is a U.S.
shareholder with respect to both CFCs,
the tiered hybrid dividend is treated as
subpart F income of the receiving CFC,
and the U.S. shareholder must include in
its gross income its pro rata share of the
tiered hybrid dividend. See section
245A(e)(2) and Regulations section
1.245A(e)-1(c) for additional information
about tiered hybrid dividends.

Line 1c

Enter the subpart F income inclusion
attributable to tiered extraordinary
disposition amounts resulting from
distributions from an extraordinary
disposition account of the shareholder
filing this Form 5471 and received by the
foreign corporation. See Regulations
section 1.245A-5(d) for further guidance
on tiered extraordinary disposition
amounts.
-16-

Line 1d

Enter the subpart F income inclusion
attributable to tiered extraordinary
reduction amounts resulting from
extraordinary reductions. See Regulations
section 1.245A-5(f) for further guidance on
tiered extraordinary reduction amounts.

Lines 1e Through 1h

Enter on lines 1e through 1h the amounts
from Worksheet A, lines 63, 65, 67, and
69, respectively. However, corporate U.S.
shareholders should report on line 1e the
amount from Worksheet A, line 63, less
the amount, if any, reported on line 1a.
Use Worksheet A, later in these
instructions, to compute the U.S.
shareholder's pro rata share of subpart F
income of the CFC, which is reportable on
lines 1e through 1h. Do not include any
income includible on Form 5471,
Schedule I, lines 1a through 1d, or any
income includible under section 951A
(Schedule I-1 is used to provide
information relating to section 951A).
Subpart F income reportable on lines 1e
through 1h includes the following.

• Adjusted net foreign base company
income (lines 1 through 17).
• Adjusted net insurance income
(line 18).
• Adjusted net related person insurance
income (line 19).
• International boycott income (line 20).
• Illegal bribes, kickbacks, and other
payments (line 21).
• Income described in section 952(a)(5)
(line 22).
Important. If the subpart F income of any
CFC for any tax year was reduced
because of the current E&P limitation, any
excess of the E&P of the CFC for any
subsequent tax year over the subpart F
income of the CFC for the tax year must
be recharacterized as subpart F income.
As a result, if the foreign corporation has
E&P for the tax period covered by this
return that is subject to recapture as a
result of a prior-year E&P limitation, add
such recapture amount to the result from
Worksheet A, line 69, and include the
combined amount on line 1h (Other
subpart F income). See the instructions for
Line 37, Current E&P limitation, later, for a
discussion of the current-year E&P
limitation.

Line 2

Report on line 2 earnings invested in U.S.
property (Worksheet B).

Line 3

Reserved for future use.

Line 4

Enter the factoring income (as defined in
section 864(d)(1)) if no subpart F income
is reported on line 1a of Worksheet A,
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

because of the operation of the de minimis
rule (see lines 1a and 10 of Worksheet A
and the related instructions under Line 1a
and Line 10, De minimis rule), later.

the shareholder from the foreign
corporation that is eligible for a deduction
under section 245A. This amount does not
include the amount of dividends that are

245A and are instead entered on lines 5b,
5c, and 5d. See section 245A for guidance
on computing the amount of a dividend
eligible for a deduction.
Note. The corporate U.S. shareholder
should include the line 5a amount on Form
1120, Schedule C, line 13, column (a), or

corporation from the CFC is a hybrid
dividend to the extent of the sum of the
U.S. shareholder’s hybrid deduction
accounts with respect to shares of stock of
the CFC. See section 245A(e) and
Regulations section 1.245A(e)-1(b) for
additional information about hybrid
dividends.
Note. The corporate U.S. shareholder
should include the line 5d amount on Form
1120, Schedule C, line 14, column (a), or
the comparable line of other corporate
income tax returns.

Line 5e

Enter on line 5e dividends not reported on
line 5a, 5b, 5c, or 5d.
Note. The corporate U.S. shareholder
should include the line 5e amount on Form
1120, Schedule C, line 14, column (a), or
the comparable line of other corporate
income tax returns.

Line 6

If previously taxed E&P (PTEP) were
distributed, enter the amount of foreign
currency gain or (loss) recognized on the
distribution, computed under section
986(c). See Notice 88-71, 1988-2 C.B.

currency gain or loss with respect to PTEP
within the reclassified section 965(b)
PTEP group or the section 965(b) PTEP
group. See Regulations section

and determined by treating a domestic
partnership as foreign). The reported
amount should reflect the balance of the
hybrid deduction accounts as of the close
of the tax year of the CFC, and after all
adjustments to the hybrid deduction
accounts for the tax year (for example, to
reflect hybrid deductions of the CFC, or
hybrid dividends paid by the CFC). For
example, if the CFC is an upper-tier CFC
all the stock of which is owned by the filer,
then line 9 must reflect the sum of the
filer’s hybrid deduction accounts with
respect to shares of stock of the upper-tier
CFC; if instead the CFC is a lower-tier
CFC all the stock of which is owned by the
filer through an upper-tier CFC, then line 9
must reflect the sum of the upper-tier
CFC’s hybrid deduction accounts with
respect to shares of stock of the lower-tier
CFC.
A hybrid deduction account with
respect to a share of stock of a CFC
reflects the amount of hybrid deductions of
the CFC that has been allocated to the
share. In general, a hybrid deduction is a
deduction or other tax benefit allowed to
the CFC (or a related person) under a
foreign tax law for an amount paid,

accrued, or distributed with respect to an
instrument of the CFC that is stock for
U.S. tax purposes. A hybrid deduction
includes a deduction allowed to the CFC
under a foreign tax law with respect to
equity (such as a notional interest
deduction). See Regulations section
1.245A(e)-1(d) for additional information
about hybrid deduction accounts.

A domestic corporation that is a U.S.
shareholder with respect to a CFC must
maintain a hybrid deduction account with
respect to each share of stock of the CFC
that the domestic corporation owns
directly or indirectly through a partnership,
trust, or estate. In addition, certain
upper-tier CFCs must maintain a hybrid
deduction account with respect to each

-18-

share of the stock of a lower-tier CFC that
the upper-tier CFC owns directly or
indirectly through a partnership, trust, or
estate. See Regulations section
1.245A(e)-1(d) for more on maintenance
of hybrid deduction accounts.

Worksheet A Instructions
Foreign base company income.
Foreign base company income generally
does not include the following.
• Foreign base company shipping
income as defined in former section
954(f).
• Foreign personal holding company
income derived in the active conduct of a
banking, finance, or similar business
(section 954(h)).
• Exempt insurance income under
section 953(e) and certain investment
income of a qualifying insurance company
or a qualifying insurance branch (sections
953(a)(2) and 954(i)).
• Certain income derived in the ordinary
course of business of a securities dealer
(section 954(c)(2)(C)(i)).
Line 1a. Do not include:
• Interest from conducting a banking
business that is “export financing interest”
(section 904(d)(2)(G));
• Rents and royalties from actively
conducting a trade or business received
from a person other than a “related
person” (as defined in section 954(d)(3));
and
• Dividends, interest, rent, or royalty
income from related corporate payors
described in section 954(c)(3) or (6).
However, see section 964(e) for an
exception to section 954(c)(3) and section
964(e)(4) for an exception to section
954(c)(6).
Interest income includes factoring
income arising when a person acquires a
trade or service receivable (directly or
indirectly) from a related person. The
income is treated as interest on a loan to
the obligor under section 864(d)(1) and is
generally not eligible for the de minimis,
export financing, and related party
exceptions to the inclusion of subpart F
income. Also, a trade or service receivable
acquired or treated as acquired by a CFC
from a related U.S. person is considered
an investment in U.S. property for
purposes of section 956 (Worksheet B) if
the obligor is a U.S. person.
Line 1b. Enter the excess of gains over
losses from the sale or exchange of:
• Property that produces the type of
income reportable on line 1a;
• An interest in a trust, partnership, or
REMIC; however, see the instructions for
Line 1i for an exception that provides for
look-through treatment for certain sales of
partnership interests; or
• Property that does not produce any
income.
Do not include the following.
• Income, gain, deduction, or loss from
any transaction (including a hedging
transaction) and transactions involving
physical settlement of a regular dealer in
property, forward contracts, option

contracts, and similar financial instruments
(section 954(c)(2)(C)).
• Gains and losses from the sale or
exchange of any property that, in the
hands of the CFC, is property described in
section 1221(a)(1).
Line 1c. Enter the excess of gains over
losses from transactions (including
futures, forward, and similar transactions)
in any commodities. See section 954(c)(1)
(C) for exceptions. See section 954(c)(5)
for a definition and special rules relating to
commodity transactions.
Line 1d. Enter the excess of foreign
currency gains over foreign currency
losses from section 988 transactions. An
exception applies to transactions directly
related to the business needs of a CFC.
Line 1e. Enter any income equivalent to
interest, including income from
commitment fees (or similar amounts) for
loans actually made.
Line 1f. Include net income from notional
principal contracts (except a contract
entered into to hedge inventory property).
Line 1g. Include payments in lieu of
dividends that are made as required under
section 1058.
Line 1h. Enter amounts received:
• Under a contract under which the
corporation is to furnish personal services
if (a) some person other than the
corporation has a right to designate (by
name or by description) the individual who
is to perform the services, or (b) the
individual who is to perform the services is
designated (by name or by description) in
the contract; and
• From the sale or other disposition of
such a contract.
Note. The above rules apply with respect
to amounts received for services under a
particular contract only if at some time
during the tax year 25% or more in value
of the outstanding stock of the corporation
is owned, directly or indirectly, by or for
the individual who has performed, is to
perform, or may be designated (by name
or by description) as the one to perform,
such services.
Line 1i. For tax years beginning after
December 31, 2004, in the case of any
sale by a CFC of an interest in a
partnership with respect to which the CFC
is a 25% owner (defined below), such
CFC is treated for purposes of computing
its foreign personal holding company
income as selling the proportionate share
of the assets of the partnership
attributable to such interest. Thus, the sale
of a partnership interest by a CFC that
meets the ownership threshold constitutes
subpart F income only to the extent that a
proportionate sale of the underlying
partnership assets attributable to the
-22-

partnership interest would constitute
subpart F income. Do not report these
amounts on line 1b. Instead, report them
on line 1i.
25% owner. For purposes of these
rules, a 25% shareholder is a CFC that
owns directly 25% or more of the capital or
profits interest in a partnership. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, if a
CFC is a shareholder or partner of a
corporation or partnership, the CFC is
treated as owning directly its proportionate
share of any such capital or profits interest
held directly or indirectly by such
corporation or partnership. If a CFC is
treated as owning a capital or profits
interest in a partnership under
constructive ownership rules similar to the
rules of section 958(b), the CFC shall be
treated as owning such interest directly or
indirectly for purposes of this definition.
Line 10. De minimis rule. If the sum of
foreign base company income
(determined without regard to section
954(b)(5)) and gross insurance income
(as defined in section 954(b)(3)(C)) for the
tax year is less than the smaller of 5% of
gross income for income tax purposes, or
$1 million, then no portion of the gross
income for the tax year is treated as
foreign base company income or
insurance income. In this case, enter zero
on line 10 and skip lines 11 through 19.
Otherwise, go to line 11.
Line 11. Full inclusion rule. If the sum
of foreign base company income
(determined without regard to section
954(b)(5)) and gross insurance income for
the tax year exceeds 70% of gross income
for income tax purposes, the entire gross
income for the tax year must (subject to
the high-tax exception described below,
the section 952(b) exclusion, and the
deductions to be taken into account under
section 954(b)(5)) be treated as foreign
base company income or insurance
income, whichever is appropriate. In this
case, enter total gross income (for income
tax purposes) on line 11. Otherwise, enter
zero.
Lines 13g, 14d, 15d, 16d, 18d, and 19d.
Exception for certain income subject
to high foreign taxes. Foreign base
company income and insurance income
do not include any item of income
received by a CFC if the taxpayer
establishes that such income was subject
to an effective rate of income tax imposed
by a foreign country that is greater than
90% of the maximum rate of tax specified
in section 11. For more information, see
section 954(b)(4) and Regulations section
1.954-1(d)(1).
Line 18. Adjusted net insurance income. Insurance income is any income
attributable to the issuing (or reinsuring) of
any insurance or annuity contract that
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

would (subject to the modifications
provided in section 953(b)) be taxed under
subchapter L (insurance company tax) if
such income were income of a domestic
insurance company. However, insurance
income does not include exempt
insurance income (as defined in section
953(e)).
Line 19. Adjusted net related person
insurance income. Related person
insurance income is any insurance income
(within the meaning of section 953(a))
attributable to a policy of insurance or
reinsurance for which the person insured
(directly or indirectly) is a U.S. shareholder
(as defined in section 953(c)(1)(A)) in a
CFC (as defined in section 953(c)(1)(B)),
or a related person (as defined in section
953(c)(6)) to such a shareholder. If a CFC
has related person insurance income, the
U.S. shareholder’s pro rata share is to be
determined under the rules of section
953(c)(5).
Exceptions. The above definition
does not apply to any foreign corporation
if:
• At all times during the foreign
corporation's tax year, less than 20% of
the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the corporation entitled
to vote, and less than 20% of the total
value of the corporation, is owned (directly
or indirectly under the principles of section
883(c)(4)) by persons who are (directly or
indirectly) insured under any policy of
insurance or reinsurance issued by the
corporation or who are related persons to
any such person;
• The related person insurance income
(determined on a gross basis) of the
corporation for the tax year is less than
20% of its insurance income for the tax
year, or
• The corporation:
1. Elects to treat its related person
insurance income for the tax year as
income effectively connected with the
conduct of a trade or business in the
United States,
2. Elects to waive all treaty benefits
(other than from section 884) for related
person insurance income, and
3. Meets any requirement the IRS
may prescribe to ensure that any tax on
such income is paid.

Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria.

Mutual life insurance companies. The
related person insurance income rules
also apply to mutual life insurance
companies under regulations prescribed
by the Secretary. For these purposes,
policyholders must be treated as
shareholders.

Note. Prior to December 22, 2015,
section 901(j) applied to Cuba. Rev. Rul.
2016-8 provides that as of December 22,
2015, section 901(j) no longer applies to
Cuba.

Line 20. International boycott income.
If a CFC or a member of a controlled
group (within the meaning of section
993(a)(3)) that includes the CFC has
operations in, or related to, a country (or
with the government, a company, or a
national of a country) that requires
participation in or cooperation with an
international boycott as a condition of
doing business within such country or with
the government, company, or national of
that country, a portion of the CFC's
income is included in subpart F income.
The amount included is determined by
multiplying the CFC's income (other than
income included under section 951 and
U.S. source effectively connected
business income described in section
952(b)) by the international boycott factor.
This factor is a fraction determined on
Schedule A (Form 5713).
Special rule. If the shareholder of a
CFC can clearly demonstrate that the
income earned for the tax year is from
specific operations, then, instead of
applying the international boycott factor,
the addition to subpart F income is the
amount specifically from the operations in
which there was participation in or
cooperation with an international boycott.
See Schedule B (Form 5713).
Line 21. Illegal bribes, kickbacks, and
other payments. Enter the total of any
illegal bribes, kickbacks, or other
payments (within the meaning of section
162(c)) paid by or on behalf of the
corporation, directly or indirectly, to an
official, employee, or agent of a
government.
Line 22. Income described in section
952(a)(5). The income of a CFC derived

-23-

Lines 24, 27, 30, and 33. Exclusion of
U.S. income. Subpart F income does not
include any U.S. source income (which,
for these purposes, includes all carrying
charges and all interest, dividends,
royalties, and other investment income
received or accrued by a FSC) that is
effectively connected with a CFC's
conduct of a trade or business in the
United States unless that item is exempt
from taxation (or is subject to a reduced
rate of tax) pursuant to a treaty obligation
of the United States or the Code.
Line 37. Current E&P limitation. A
CFC's subpart F income is limited to the
sum of the following.
• Its current year E&P, computed under
the special rule of section 952(c)(1). Enter
this amount on line 37a.
• Any tested loss under section 951A(c)
(2)(B)(ii). If the total of all lines 6 of all
separate Schedules I-1 (Form 5471) for
the CFC is a negative number, enter the
amount as a positive number on line 37b.
If the total of all lines 6 is a positive
number or zero, enter -0- on line 37b.
The amount included in the gross
income of a U.S. shareholder of a CFC
under section 951(a)(1)(A) for any tax year
and attributable to a qualified activity must
be reduced by the shareholder's pro rata
share of any qualified deficit (see section
952(c)(1)(B)).
Lines 39 through 43. If Worksheet A,
line 37c, is less than the amount on
Worksheet A, line 36, allocate the subpart
F income remaining (after having been
limited) (that is, the line 38 amount) to the
four categories of subpart F income listed
on Worksheet A, lines 40 through 43,
using the rules of Regulations section
1.952-1(e).

Worksheet B Instructions
Use Worksheet B to determine a U.S.
shareholder's pro rata share of earnings of
a CFC invested in U.S. property that is
subject to tax. Only earnings of a CFC not
distributed or otherwise previously taxed
are subject to these rules. Thus, the
amount of previously untaxed earnings
limits the section 956 inclusion. A CFC's
investment in U.S. property in excess of
this limit will not be included in the taxable
income of the CFC's U.S. shareholders.
The balances in the previously taxed
accounts of prior section 956 inclusions
(see section 959(c)(1)(A)) and current or
prior subpart F inclusions (see section
959(c)(2)) reduce what would otherwise
be the current section 956 inclusion.
Note. The previously taxed accounts
should be adjusted to reflect any
reclassification of subpart F inclusions that
reduced prior section 956 or 956A
inclusions (see section 959(a)(2) and
Schedule J).
Distributions also are taken into
account before the section 956 inclusion is
determined. Distributions are generally
treated as coming first from (and thus
reducing the balances of) the previously

taxed accounts. Thus, the U.S.
shareholders must:
1. Compute the current subpart F
income inclusion (potentially increasing
that previously taxed account),
2. Take into account current
distributions (potentially reducing the
previously taxed and untaxed accounts),
and
3. Compute the current section 956
inclusion (potentially increasing or
reclassifying the previously taxed
accounts).
U.S. property is measured on a
quarterly average basis. For purposes of
Worksheet B, the amount taken into
account with respect to U.S. property is
generally its adjusted basis for E&P
purposes, reduced by any liability to which
the property is subject. See sections
956(c) and (d) and the regulations under
section 956 to determine whether the CFC
is treated as holding U.S. property. The
amount of U.S. property held (directly or
indirectly) by the CFC does not include
any item that was acquired by the foreign
corporation before it became a CFC,
except for the property acquired before
the foreign corporation became a CFC
that exceeds the applicable earnings (as

defined in section 956(b)) accumulated
during periods before it became a CFC.
If the foreign corporation ceases to be
a CFC during the tax year:
• The determination of the U.S.
shareholder's pro rata share will be made
based upon the stock owned (within the
meaning of section 958(a)) by the U.S.
shareholder on the last day during the tax
year in which the foreign corporation was
a CFC;
• The CFC's U.S. property for the tax
year will be determined only by taking into
account quarters ending on or before such
last day (and investments in U.S. property
as of the close of subsequent quarters
should be recorded as zero on line 1); and
• In determining applicable earnings,
current E&P will include only E&P that are
allocable (on a pro rata basis) to the part
of the year during which the foreign
corporation was a CFC.

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Instructions for Separate
Schedules
Schedule E

Use Schedule E, Part I, to report taxes
paid, accrued, or deemed paid under
section 960(b)(2) by a foreign corporation
for which a foreign tax credit is allowed
and use Schedule E, Part III, to report
taxes for which a credit may not be taken.
Note. Schedule E must be completed
even for non-corporate U.S. shareholders.
Certain non-corporate U.S. shareholders
may elect under section 962 to be taxed at
corporate rates on section 951(a) amounts
and the GILTI inclusion for the tax year, so
as to be able to claim a credit for certain
foreign taxes paid or accrued by the CFC.
The information reported on Schedule E is
relevant for U.S. shareholders making this
election. Also, timely information reporting
is important to the extent the U.S.
shareholder chooses to amend its return
in a later year to make the election under
section 962. Schedules E and E-1 are also
relevant for non-corporate U.S.
shareholders who do not make a section
962 election. Taxes paid or accrued with
respect to distributions of PTEP by the
U.S. shareholder, while not reported on
the Form 5471, are subject to different
rules regarding creditability and foreign
currency gain or loss. See, for example,
section 965(g) and 986(c). Therefore, it is
important that the U.S. shareholder track
the PTEP groups to follow the different
rules for each group.

Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. If applicable, use the reference ID
number shown on Form 5471, page 1,
Item 1b(2).
Lines a, b, and c. Complete a separate
Schedule E for each applicable separate
category of income. Enter the appropriate
code on line a (above Part I). To
determine the appropriate code, see
Categories of Income in the Instructions
for Form 1118, Foreign Tax
Credit—Corporations. A foreign
corporation may need to report taxes with
respect to all categories of income listed in
the Instructions for Form 1118, with the
exception of foreign branch category
income. A foreign corporation may accrue
or pay taxes properly attributable to an
income group within the general category,
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

passive category, or section 901(j)
category. See Regulations section
1.960-1(d)(2)(ii). A foreign corporation
may accrue or pay taxes properly
attributable to a PTEP group within any of
the separate categories of income, with
the exception of foreign branch category
income. See Regulations section
1.960-3(c)(1).
If code 901j is entered on line a, enter
on line b the country code for the
sanctioned country using the two-letter
codes (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes).
If one of the RBT codes is entered on
line a, enter on line c the country code for
the treaty country using the two-letter
codes (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes).
Note. Do not complete a separate
Schedule E for taxes assigned to the
section 951A category. Taxes paid,
accrued, or deemed paid with respect to
section 951A PTEP that is in the section
951A category are reported on the
Schedule E completed for the general
category.
Important. In addition to the separate
category codes referred to above, if you
have more than one of the categories of
income referred to above, you must
complete and file a separate Schedule E
(including Schedule E-1) using code
"TOTAL" that aggregates all amounts
listed for each line and column of all other
Schedules E and E-1.

Part I—Taxes for Which a
Foreign Tax Credit Is Allowed

In Part I, Section 1, list income, war profits,
and excess profits taxes (income taxes)
paid or accrued to each foreign country or
U.S. possession for the foreign
corporation’s foreign tax year(s) that end
with or within its U.S. tax year.
In Part I, Section 2, report taxes
deemed paid under section 960(b)(2) with
respect to distributions of PTEP from a
lower-tier foreign corporation to the foreign
corporation with respect to which this
Schedule E (Form 5471) is being
completed.

Amounts not reported in Part I. Do not
report taxes that are not creditable,
including taxes for which a credit is
disallowed under section 901(j), (k), (l), or
(m) or suspended under section 909.
Such taxes are reported in Part III. A credit
is never allowed for taxes paid or accrued
to the United States. Do not report such
taxes in Part I, but in Part III.
Adjustments to foreign income taxes.
Adjustments to foreign income taxes paid
or accrued in a prior year should not be
reflected on Schedule E in the year of
adjustment. Instead, they should be
-25-

reported in the year to which such taxes
relate. This may require an amended
return. See section 905(c), as amended
by the Act. Adjustments include additional
payments, refunds, and downward
adjustments for accrued foreign taxes that
are not paid within 2 years after the close
of the tax year to which such taxes relate.
Comparison to income tax expense reported on Schedule C (Form 5471).
The foreign income taxes reported on
Schedule E may differ from the amount
reported as income tax expense on
line 21a of Schedule C. This is due in part
to differences in the accounting for foreign
tax redeterminations, disallowed taxes,
and foreign income taxes reported in
Other Comprehensive Income for U.S.
GAAP purposes.
Comparison to income tax expense reported on Schedule H (Form 5471).
The taxes added or deducted on line 2g of
Schedule H include both foreign income
taxes reported in Part I of Schedule E as
well as the taxes reported in Part III of
Schedule E that are not creditable foreign
income taxes.

Section 1—Taxes Paid or
Accrued Directly by Foreign
Corporation
Column (a)
Amounts reported on Schedule E may
include taxes paid or accrued by the
foreign corporation or a pass-through
entity (for example, partnership or
disregarded entity) owned by the foreign
corporation. If the tax is paid or accrued by
the pass-through entity, enter the name of
such entity instead of the name of the
foreign corporation. If the tax paid or
accrued by the foreign corporation is
attributable to a branch or qualified
business unit (QBU) of the foreign
corporation, enter the name of the branch
or QBU.

Column (b)
Enter the employer identification number
(EIN) or reference ID number of the payor
entity listed in column (a). A reference ID
number is required only in cases in which
no EIN was entered for the foreign
corporation or pass-through entity owned
by the foreign corporation. Filers are
permitted to enter both an EIN and a
reference ID number. See Item 1(b)
(2)—Reference ID number for more
information about reference ID numbers.

Column (c)
Check the box if the foreign income taxes
reported in column (j) were paid or
accrued by the corporation during prior tax
years and were suspended due to the
application of the rules of section 909 and

that are unsuspended in the current year
because related income is taken into
account by the foreign corporation, certain
U.S. corporate owners of the foreign
corporation, or a member of such U.S.
corporate owner’s consolidated group.

Column (d)
Enter the two-letter codes (from the list at
IRS.gov/CountryCodes) of all foreign
countries and U.S. possessions to which
taxes were paid or accrued. If taxes were
paid or accrued to more than one country
with respect to the same income, include
each tax paid or accrued to a different
country on separate lines.

Column (e)
The foreign tax year under foreign tax law
may not be the same tax year as the U.S.
tax year of the foreign corporation. If the
tax is attributable to a pass-through entity
owned by a foreign corporation, the
foreign tax year of the foreign corporation
within which such pass-through entity’s
year ends should be reported on this line.

Column (g)
Enter the income reported to the foreign
tax authority under foreign tax law. This
should be the foreign taxable income base
for determining the tax reported in column
(i).

Column (h)
Check the box if taxes were paid on U.S.
source income.

Column (i)
Enter three-letter currency code for the
local currency in which the tax is payable.
Currency codes are available at
www.iso.org/iso-4217-currencycodes.html or www.currency-iso.org/en/
home/tables/tables-a1.html.

Column (j)
Enter the tax paid or accrued in the local
currency in which tax is payable and not
the functional currency of the payor or
foreign corporation. See sections 986(a)
and 905(c).

Columns (k) and (l)
Enter the exchange rate in column (k) and
the translated dollar amount in column (l).
Translate the taxes entered in column
(j) into dollars at the average exchange
rate for the tax year to which the tax
relates unless one of the exceptions below
applies. See section 986(a).
Exceptions. If one of the following
exceptions applies, use the exchange rate

in effect on the date the foreign
corporation paid the tax.
1. The tax is paid before the
beginning of the year to which the tax
relates.
2. Accrued taxes are not paid before
the date 2 years after the close of the tax
year to which such taxes relate.
3. There is an election in effect under
section 986(a)(1)(D) to translate foreign
taxes using the exchange rate in effect on
the date of payment.
4. The foreign corporation reports on
the cash basis. See section 986(a).
5. The foreign tax is denominated in
an inflationary currency. See section
986(a)(1)(C).
Report the exchange rate using the
“divide-by convention” specified under
Reporting exchange rates on Form 5471,
earlier.

Column (m)
Enter the tax in functional currency. E&P
takes into account foreign income taxes
paid or accrued by the foreign corporation.
The foreign corporation's E&P is
determined in the foreign corporation's
functional currency. See section 986(b).

Line 5

Report the total of the amounts listed in
column (l) on this line 5. This total also
should be reported on Schedule E-1,
line 4.

Line 6

Report the total of the amounts listed in
column (m) on this line 6. This total and
the amount reported on line 3 of
Schedule E, Part III, are the appropriate
reduction to current year E&P for income
taxes. See Schedule H, line 2g.
Example. CFC1, a foreign
corporation, with reference ID number
1000123, pays or accrues tax of 10u =
$10 to Country X on 50u of Country X
foreign source taxable income with
respect to CFC1’s foreign tax year ending
December 31, 2021. CFC1 has a
December 31 tax year end for both foreign
and U.S. tax purposes. Also, CFC1
receives in the tax year ending December
31, 2021, a refund of 3u from Country X on
15u of foreign source income with respect
to CFC1’s tax year ending December 31,
2017, translated to equal $5, and on which
the original liability was $7. Therefore, the
revised tax liability is $2. All taxes relate to
general category income. Also assume for
both years that the local currency in which
the tax was paid was the same as the
foreign corporation’s functional currency.
The country code for Country X is XX.
The following entries should be made
on the 2021 Form 5471, Schedule E,
-26-

General Category, Part I, Section 1, for

Section 2—Taxes Deemed Paid
(Section 960(b))
The purpose of Section 2 is to track
deemed-paid foreign income taxes with
respect to current year PTEP distributions
from lower-tier foreign corporations to the
foreign corporation with respect to which
this Schedule E (Form 5471) is being
completed (“the foreign corporation”).
Report a PTEP distribution by a
lower-tier foreign corporation in Section 2
only if foreign income taxes are deemed
paid under section 960(b) by the foreign
corporation with respect to such PTEP
distribution.
The only foreign taxes of the
distributing foreign corporation that may
be treated as deemed paid under section
960(b) are foreign taxes paid, accrued, or
deemed paid by the distributing foreign
corporation with respect to the receipt of a
PTEP distribution from another lower-tier
foreign corporation below the distributing
foreign corporation. Accordingly, there can
be no deemed-paid foreign taxes with
respect to a PTEP distribution from a
lower-tier foreign corporation that is the
lowest foreign-tier foreign corporation in a
chain, and therefore no such distributions
will be reported in Section 2. See
Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(3)(ii)(C).
Any foreign income taxes paid or
accrued (but not deemed paid) by the
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

foreign corporation with respect to a PTEP
distribution from a lower-tier foreign
corporation (whether or not such PTEP
distribution is reported in Section 2), such
as withholding taxes imposed on the
PTEP distribution, are reported in Section
1.

Column (a)
Enter the name of each lower-tier foreign
corporation that made a PTEP distribution
eligible with respect to which a
deemed-paid tax is determined in the
current year by the foreign corporation
with respect to which this Schedule E
(Form 5471) is being completed.

Column (b)
Enter the employer identification number
(EIN) or reference ID number of the
lower-tier foreign corporation listed in
column (a). A reference ID number is
required only in cases in which no EIN
was entered for the lower-tier foreign
corporation. Filers are permitted to enter
both an EIN and a reference ID number.
See Item 1b(2)—Reference ID Number for
more information about reference ID
numbers.

Column (c)
Enter the applicable two-letter codes (from
the list at IRS.gov/CountryCodes).

Column (d)
Enter the code which describes the PTEP
group classification (as set forth in
Regulations section 1.960-3(c)(2)). Please
enter the applicable PTEP group code
from the following list.

U.S. dollars. To determine the appropriate
translation rate, see section 986(a).

Column (i)
Enter the U.S. dollar amount of the
recipient foreign corporation's income
taxes deemed paid that are properly
attributable to the PTEP distribution
reported in column (f) and not deemed to
have been paid by the domestic
corporation for any prior tax year.
Note. With respect to distributions of
PTEP resulting from inclusions under
section 965, report the taxes properly
attributable to such PTEP without
reduction for the foreign tax credit
disallowance.

Part III—Taxes for Which
Foreign Tax Credit Is
Disallowed

Use Part III to report taxes for which
foreign tax credits are not allowed. While
not allowed as a credit, such taxes are
taken into account in determining the
foreign corporation’s E&P.

-27-

Do not enter taxes that do not meet the
criteria under Regulations section 1.901-2.

Columns (a) and (b)
See Part I Taxes for Which a Foreign Tax
Credit Is Allowed, earlier, for instructions
regarding these columns.

Column (c)
Enter foreign income taxes that are
disallowed under section 901(j), generally
foreign income taxes paid or accrued to
certain sanctioned countries.

Column (d)
Enter foreign income taxes that are
disallowed under section 901(k), which
generally applies to certain taxes paid on
dividends if the minimum holding period is
not met with respect to the underlying
stock, or if the corporation is obligated to
make related payments with respect to
positions in similar or related property.
Also enter foreign income taxes
disallowed under section 901(l), which
generally applies to certain taxes paid on
gain and income other than dividends if
the minimum holding period is not met
with respect to the underlying property, or
if the corporation is obligated to make
related payments with respect to positions
in similar or related property.

Column (e)
In the case of a covered asset acquisition
(as defined in section 901(m)(2)), enter
the disqualified portion of any tax
determined with respect to the income or
gain attributable to the relevant foreign
assets (section 901(m)).
Note. This rule generally applies to
covered asset acquisitions after
December 31, 2010. See Regulations
sections 1.901(m)-1 through 1.901(m)-8
for additional information. Note that the
rules contained in these regulations have
later effective dates.

Column (f)
Enter the amount of taxes paid or accrued
by the foreign corporation to the United
States. No credit is allowed for these taxes
because only foreign income taxes paid or
accrued to a foreign country or possession
of the United States are allowed as a
credit. See section 901(b).

Column (g)
Report foreign income taxes related to the
current tax year that have been
suspended due to the rules of section 909.

Column (h)
Enter taxes for which a foreign tax credit is
disallowed other than those detailed in
columns (c) through (g). Such taxes may
include, but are not limited to, certain
taxes on the purchase or sale of oil and
gas (section 901(f)), certain taxes used to
provide subsidies (section 901(i)), and
taxes for which no credit is allowed
because of the boycott provisions of
section 908.

Column (i)
For each line in this column, enter the total
amount for each payor in columns (c)
through (h).

Line 3

Total each amount in column (i) and enter
on line 3. All amounts should be in
functional currency.

Line 4

Translate the line 3 amount from functional
currency to U.S. dollars using, in general,
the average exchange rate as defined by
section 989(b)(3).

Schedule E-1

Use Schedule E-1 to report the cumulative
balance of foreign income taxes paid or
accrued by a CFC by separate category of
income.
Enter amounts in U.S. dollars unless
otherwise noted.

Columns (a), (b), and (c)

In columns (a), (b), and (c), report only the
foreign income taxes the foreign
corporation pays or accrues attributable to
the subpart F income group, the tested
income group, and the residual income
group, respectively. Use Schedule Q to
determine the taxes attributable to each
income group. Do not include foreign
income taxes paid or accrued by the
foreign corporation in its other tax years
beginning after December 31, 2017, or
that do not relate to the current tax year.
Do not include foreign income taxes that
are disallowed and are reported on
Schedule E, Part III. Do not include taxes
paid or accrued by the foreign corporation
with respect to its receipt of a PTEP
distribution, even if those amounts were
included in the total entered on line 5,
column (l), of Schedule E, Part I, Section
1. These are reported in column (e). Do
not include taxes deemed paid by the
foreign corporation with respect to its
receipt of a PTEP distribution. These are
also reported in column (e).
On line 9, report reductions for the
portion of such taxes that are deemed
paid by a U.S. shareholder with respect to
an inclusion under section 951(a) or 951A.
On line 15, report reductions for foreign

income taxes attributable to the column
(b) tested income group that are not
deemed paid as a result of the inclusion
percentage or the 80% limitation. Also, on
line 15, report any other reductions to the
three income groups in columns (a), (b),
and (c) necessary to achieve a zero
balance on line 16. Attach a statement
explaining why such taxes were not
deemed paid under section 960. The
balance of foreign income taxes paid or
accrued with respect to the three income
groups that is entered on line 16 should
equal zero after taking into account the
reductions.
Note. Because columns (b) and (c) are
new this year, the prior year ending
balances in columns (b) and (c) will not
carry forward to new columns (b) and (c).

Column (d)

Use column (d) to report taxes suspended
under section 909.

Columns (e)(i) through (e)(x)

Report foreign income taxes paid or
accrued with respect to E&P described in
sections 959(c)(1) and (c)(2). See
instructions for Schedule J, Column (e),
for specific information about the ten
PTEP group columns. Also see
Regulations section 1.960-3(c)(2) for
additional information regarding the ten
PTEP groups.

Specific Instructions Related to
Lines 1 through 16
Line 1a. Except for columns (a), (b), and
(c), which are new this year, this amount
should equal the amount that was
reported as the balance on line 18 of the
prior year Schedule E-1.
Line 1b. Except for columns (a), (b), and
(c), which are new this year, if the balance
on line 18 of prior year Schedule E-1 was
adjusted after the filing of the original prior
year Form 5471, such adjustments should
be reflected on line 1b. For example, if
there were errors in the original
computation of foreign income taxes, an
adjustment would be included on this line.
See Corrections to Form 5471, earlier. Do
not include any adjustments required to be
reported on line 7 or 12. Attach a
statement that includes an explanation
and the dollar amount of each such
adjustment, along with a total that equals
the amount entered on line 1b.
Line 2. Except for columns (a), (b), and
(c), which are new this year, use line 2 to
reflect adjustments to a U.S. person’s
foreign tax credit as a result of
redetermined foreign income taxes. If a
U.S. person has appropriately amended
the immediately prior year return, including
its Schedule E-1, to redetermine its U.S.
tax liability, no adjustment should be
-28-

included on this line. This line is only
applicable if a U.S. person appropriately
amended a prior year return and there
were intervening years between the
amended year return and the current year
return for which an amended return was
not filed. If so, an adjustment for the prior
year amended return (and its impact on
intervening years) should be reflected on
line 2.
Line 3a. A tax reported on Schedule E,
Part I, Section 1, line 5, column (l) for
which column (c) was checked because
such tax was unsuspended in the current
year, should be included as a positive
amount in column (a), (b), (c), or (e), as
appropriate. Such tax should also be
reflected as a negative amount in column
(d).
Line 3b. Include as a positive amount in
column (d) foreign income taxes related to
the current tax year that have been
suspended due to the rules of section 909.
Such taxes are also reported on
Schedule E, Part III, column (g).
Line 4. The total reported on Schedule E,
Part I, Section 1, line 5, column (l), should
be separated into columns (a) through (e)
according to the type of income or E&P to
which such taxes relate. Therefore, for
example, taxes paid or accrued with
respect to the receipt of a PTEP
distribution are reported in column (e), and
taxes paid or accrued with respect to
current year subpart F income of the
foreign corporation are reported in column
(a).
Example 1. Domestic Corporation, a
U.S. shareholder, wholly owns the only
class of stock of CFC1, a foreign
corporation. CFC1, in turn, wholly owns
the only class of stock of CFC2, a foreign
corporation. CFC2, in turn, wholly owns
the only class of stock of CFC3, a foreign
corporation. The functional currency of
Domestic Corporation, CFC1, CFC2, and
CFC3 is the U.S. dollar. During Year 1,
CFC 3 has subpart F income, after foreign
income tax, of $100 with respect to which
it pays $20 of foreign income tax. Such tax
is properly attributable to subpart F
income of CFC 3 and is reported on line 4,
column (a) of Schedule E-1 of CFC 3’s
Form 5471. During Year 1, Domestic
Corporation reports an inclusion under
section 951(a)(1) of $100 and deemed
paid taxes of $20 under section 960(a) as
a result of subpart F income of CFC3.
During Year 2, CFC3 distributes $40 to
CFC2. CFC2 pays withholding tax of $4
on the distribution from CFC3. Such tax is
a tax related to previously taxed earnings
and profits that were included as subpart F
income and is reported on line 4, column
(e)(x), of Schedule E-1 of CFC2’s Form
5471.

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Line 5. Report taxes carried over to a
foreign surviving corporation after an
acquisition by a foreign corporation of the
assets of another foreign corporation in a
transaction described in section 381. See
Regulations section 1.367(b)-7(b)(1) and
(d)(1).
Line 6. Enter foreign income taxes
properly attributable to PTEP and not
previously deemed paid (from
Schedule E, Part I, Section 2, line 5,
column (i)). The total reported on
Schedule E, Part I, Section 2, line 5,
column (i) should be broken out on
Schedule E-1, line 6, columns (e)(i)
through (e)(x) based on the type of PTEP
to which such taxes relate.
Example 2. The facts are the same as
in Example 1, except that, in addition,
CFC2 distributes $36 to CFC1 in Year 3.
CFC1 is deemed to pay the $4 of
withholding tax paid by CFC2 in Year 2.
See section 960(b). Such tax is
attributable to previously taxed subpart F
income and is reported on line 6, column
(e)(x), of Schedule E-1 of CFC1’s Form
5471. Such tax is also reported as a
negative number on line 10, column (e)(x),
of Schedule E-1 of CFC2’s Form 5471.
Line 7. Attach a statement with a
description and the amount of any
adjustments required before taking into
account taxes deemed paid by the foreign
corporation. Do not include any
adjustments required to be reported on
line 1b or 12.
Line 9. A domestic corporation is
deemed to pay foreign income taxes
attributable to inclusions under section
951(a)(1). See section 960(a). Amounts
reported on line 9 should be negative
numbers.
If a domestic corporation includes an
amount in income under section 951A,
such domestic corporation is deemed to
pay foreign income taxes equal to 80% of
the product of (a) such domestic
corporation’s inclusion percentage,
multiplied by, (b) the aggregate tested
foreign income taxes paid or accrued by
the CFC. For the computation of such
amount, see Form 1118, Schedule D.
Amounts reported on line 9 should be
negative numbers. See line 15 with
respect to reporting tested taxes not
deemed paid as a result of the inclusion
percentage or the application of the 80%
limitation.
Line 10. A domestic corporation is
deemed to pay foreign income taxes with
respect to distributions of previously taxed
E&P. Section 960(b)(1). Amounts reported
on line 10 should be negative numbers.
Taxes are deemed paid by a domestic
corporation that is a U.S. shareholder or a
foreign corporation that is a controlled
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

foreign corporation with respect to
distributions of PTEP that it receives.
Report on line 10, column (e), the taxes
that relate to PTEP of the foreign
corporation that are deemed paid by a
shareholder of the foreign corporation,
either an upper-tier foreign corporation or
a U.S. shareholder, with respect to a
distribution of PTEP made by the foreign
corporation.
Example 3. The facts are the same as
in Example 2, except that during Year 4,
CFC1 distributes $36 to Domestic
Corporation. Domestic Corporation is
deemed to pay the $4 of withholding taxes
deemed paid by CFC1 in Year 3 and paid
by CFC2 in Year 2. A negative $4 will be
recorded on line 10, column (e)(x), of
CFC1’s Form 5471, Schedule E-1.
See Example 2 for reporting on line 10
with respect to taxes on distributions from
CFC3 to CFC2.
Line 11. Foreign income taxes
reclassified from section 959(c)(2)
previously taxed E&P to section 959(c)(1)
previously taxed E&P should be reported
as negative numbers in columns (e)(vi)
through (e)(x) and as positive numbers in
columns (e)(i) through (e)(v).
Example 4. The facts are the same as
in Example 1, except that during Year 2
CFC2 invests $40 in U.S. property. At the
time of investment in such property, CFC2
continues to maintain a $36 balance in its
section 959(c)(2) previously taxed E&P
account. CFC2 reclassifies such amount
as section 959(c)(1) previously taxed E&P
on Schedule J. Accordingly, $4 of foreign
income taxes related to section 959(c)(2)
previously taxed E&P is reclassified to
section 959(c)(1) previously taxed E&P on
line 11, column (e)(iii). A negative $4 will
be recorded on line 11, column (e)(x), and
a positive $4 will be recorded on line 11,
column (e)(iii).
Line 12. Attach a statement with a
description and the amount of any
required adjustments to taxes of the
foreign corporation not already taken into
account on this schedule. An example of
amounts reported on line 12 is taxes
attributable to PTEP distributions to
shareholders ineligible to claim a foreign
tax credit under section 960(b)(1) (such as
foreign corporations).
Line 15. Enter the reduction to the
column (b) tested income group for tested
income taxes not deemed paid. See
Regulations section 1.960-1. This includes
taxes attributable to the column (b) tested
income group that were not deemed paid
as a result of the domestic corporation’s
inclusion percentage or as a result of the
application of the 80% limit. See section
960(d). Enter the reduction to the three
income groups in columns (a), (b), and (c)
for other taxes not deemed paid. See
-29-

Regulations section 1.960-1. This includes
taxes that are properly attributable to a
subpart F income group but were not
deemed paid because there was no
subpart F income with respect to that
income group in the current year.
Note. If necessary, enter negative
amounts on line 15 of columns (a), (b),
and (c) in amounts sufficient to reduce
line 16, columns (a), (b), and (c), to zero.
Attach a statement explaining why such
taxes were not deemed paid under section
960.

Schedule G-1
Note. A separate Schedule G-1 must be
filed for each cost sharing arrangement
(CSA) as defined in Regulations section
1.482-7(b) in which the foreign corporation
was a controlled participant (as defined in
Regulations section 1.482-7(j)) during the
tax year. All amounts should be reported
in U.S. dollars.
Question 4. Enter the foreign
corporation’s share of reasonably
anticipated benefits (RAB) for the CSA
during the tax year. See Regulations
section 1.482-7(e) for rules on a
determining and updating controlled
participant’s RAB share. If the foreign
corporation applied more than one RAB
share during the tax year in determining its
share of intangible development costs
(IDCs), enter the RAB share that was
applied to IDCs incurred at the end of the
year. See Regulations section 1.482-7(d)
for more information on IDCs.
Question 5a. Check the “Yes” box if the
U.S. taxpayer made any platform
contributions as defined in Regulations
section 1.482-7(c) to the CSA during the
tax year. If “Yes,” complete lines 5b and
5c.
Questions 5b and 5c. Enter the foreign
corporation's RAB share of the total
present value of all platform contributions
made by the U.S. taxpayer during the tax
year with respect to the foreign
corporation on line 5b. The total present
value of all platform contributions made by
the U.S. taxpayer during the tax year
should be entered even if only a portion
(or none) of the value of those platform
contributions was included in the U.S.
taxpayer's taxable income as platform
contribution transaction (PCT) payments
during the tax year. If possible, include a
reasonable present value estimate for any
PCTs that are priced using a method that
does not involve the calculation of a
present value. Otherwise, attach a brief
statement of the reason(s) it is not
possible to include a present value
estimate for one or more PCTs (for
example, no revenue projections for a
PCT that is priced based on a sales-based

royalty from a comparable uncontrolled
transaction).
If the U.S. taxpayer engaged in multiple
PCTs during the tax year with the foreign
corporation and used different methods to
price the PCTs, check the appropriate
boxes on line 5c to indicate which
methods were selected as the best
method for one or more of the PCTs
reported in the tax year. See Regulations
section 1.482-7(g) for more information on
the methods applicable to PCTs.

Note. Category 5b and 5c filers are not
required to file Schedule H for
foreign-controlled corporations.

Questions 6b and 6c. See generally
Regulations section 1.482-7 for more
information on determining whether
stock-based compensation is directly
identified with, or reasonably allocable to,
the intangible development activity (IDA)
under the CSA. See Regulations section
1.482-7(d)(3) and Notice 2005-99 for
more information on determining the
measurement and timing of stock-based
compensation IDCs, including an election
available with respect to options on
publicly traded stock and certain other
stock-based compensation.
Check the appropriate box on line 6c to
indicate whether any stock-based
compensation was granted during the
term of the CSA to individuals who
performed functions in business activities
that generate cost shared intangibles that
were not treated as directly identified with,
or reasonably allocable to, the IDA as
defined in Regulations section 1.482-7(d)
(1)(i). This would include stock-based
compensation granted in earlier years
(which could give rise to deductions in the
current tax year) that were not treated as
identified with or reasonably allocable to
the IDA.

Reference ID number of foreign corporation. If applicable, use the reference ID
number shown on Form 5471, page 1,
Item 1b(2).

Questions 7a and 7b. For the tax year,
enter the total amount of IDCs for the CSA
on line 7a. See Regulations section
1.482-7(d) for more information on IDCs.
On line 7b, enter the amount of IDCs
allocated to the foreign corporation for the
tax year based on the foreign
corporation’s RAB share.

Schedule H

Use Schedule H to report the foreign
corporation's current E&P for U.S. tax
purposes. Enter the amounts on lines 1
through 5c in the CFC's functional
currency.
Certain filers may be able to use
alternative information (as defined in
section 3.01 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40) to
determine certain amounts in this
schedule. See specific instructions for
Item F—Alternative Information Under
Rev. Proc. 2019-40, earlier, for more
details.

Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”

Special rules for DASTM. If the foreign
corporation uses DASTM, enter on line 1
the dollar GAAP income or (loss) from
line 22 of Schedule C. Enter on lines 2a
through 4 the adjustments made in
figuring current E&P for U.S. tax purposes.
Report these amounts in U.S. dollars.
Enter on line 5b the DASTM gain or loss
figured under Regulations section
1.985-3(d).
Lines 2a through 2i. Certain
adjustments (required by Regulations
sections 1.964-1(b) and (c)) must be
made to the foreign corporation's line 1 net
book income or (loss) to determine its
current E&P. These adjustments may
include both positive and negative
adjustments to conform the foreign book
income to U.S. GAAP and to U.S. tax
accounting principles. If the foreign
corporation's books are maintained in
functional currency in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, enter on line 1 the functional
currency GAAP income or (loss) from
line 22 of Schedule C, rather than starting
with foreign book income, and show
GAAP-to-tax adjustments on lines 2a
through 2i.
Lines 2b and 2c. Generally,
depreciation, depletion, and amortization
allowances must be based on the
historical cost of the underlying asset, and
depreciation must be figured according to
section 167. However, if 20% or more of
the foreign corporation's gross income is
from U.S. sources, depreciation must be
figured on a straight line basis according
to Regulations section 1.312-15.
Line 2f. Inventories must be taken into
account according to the rules of
sections 471 (incorporating the provisions
of section 263A) and 472 and the related
regulations.
Line 2g. See the instructions for
Schedule C, Line 21, earlier. Reflect
differences between the income tax
expense (benefit) reported for book
purposes and the income taxes deducted
or added to E&P. Such differences
include, for example, deferred income tax
-30-

expenses, uncertain tax positions,
intraperiod allocations, adjustments made
after closing the financial statements
(post-closing adjustments) and not
reflected in income tax expense (benefit),
and the adjustment for a foreign tax
redetermination that required a
redetermination of the U.S. tax liability.
Line 2h. Enter the adjustment to foreign
currency gains or losses. Attach a
statement with a description of the gain or
losses.
In the case of section 988 losses,
determine whether Form 8886 needs to be
completed, as described in Additional
Filing Requirements, earlier.
Line 2i. Enter the net amount of any
additional adjustments not included on
lines 2a through 2h. List these additional
adjustments on a separate statement.
Attach this statement to Form 5471.
Schedule H is only prepared for the
general, passive, and section 901(j)
categories of income. For example, if U.S.
GAAP income reported on Schedule C
contains items related to PTEP, include
the necessary adjustments on line 2i of
Schedule H for the appropriate category of
income (general or passive) and attach a
statement that itemizes and explains
those adjustments. Report adjustments for
foreign taxes related to the PTEP on
line 2g. This adjustment is necessary
because foreign taxes imposed on PTEP
distributions do not reduce current year
E&P. Foreign taxes imposed on PTEP
distributions reduce PTEP and are
reported on Schedule J, line 6.
Example. Domestic Corporation, a
U.S. shareholder, wholly owns the only
class of stock of CFC1, a foreign
corporation. CFC1, in turn, wholly owns
the only class of stock of CFC2, a foreign
corporation. During Year 1, Domestic
Corporation reports an inclusion under
section 951(a)(1) of $100 as a result of
subpart F income of CFC2. During Year 2,
CFC2 distributes $40 to CFC1. CFC1
pays withholding tax of $4 on the
distribution from CFC2. Such tax is related
to previously taxed subpart F income. On
Domestic Corporation’s financial
statements, Domestic Corporation reports
the $4 withholding tax as current income
tax expense. Domestic Corporation
reports on CFC1’s Form 5471,
Schedule H, on line 2g, a positive
adjustment for the $4 of tax on the PTEP
distribution.
Line 5b. DASTM gain or (loss), reflecting
unrealized exchange gain or loss, should
be entered on line 5b only for foreign
corporations that use DASTM.
Line 5c. The line 5c current year E&P
amount may include amounts with respect
to the general category, passive category,
or section 901(j) category. See
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(2). Enter
on lines 5c(i), 5c(ii), 5c(iii)(A), 5c(iii)(B),
5c(iii)(C), and 5c(iii)(D), as applicable, the
portion of the line 5c current year E&P
amount with respect to each applicable
category of income. If applicable for lines
5c(iii)(A), 5c(iii)(B), 5c(iii)(C), and 5c(iii)
(D), also enter the country code for the
sanctioned country using the two-letter
codes (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes).
Note. The amounts reported on line 5c
include both foreign source and U.S.
source income.
Line 5d. Enter the line 5c functional
currency amount translated into U.S.
dollars at the average exchange rate for
the foreign corporation's tax year. See
section 989(b). Report the exchange rate
using the “divide-by convention” specified
under Reporting Exchange Rates on Form
5471, earlier. If the foreign corporation
uses DASTM, enter on line 5d the same
amount entered on line 5c.
Line 5e. Enter the exchange rate used in
computing line 5d. Report the exchange
rate using the "divide-by convention"
specified under Reporting exchange rates
on Form 5471.
Blocked income. The E&P of the foreign
corporation, as reflected on Schedule H,
must not be reduced by all or any part of
such E&P that could not have been
distributed by the foreign corporation due
to currency or other restrictions or
limitations imposed under the laws of any
foreign country.

Schedule I-1

This schedule is used to report information
determined at the CFC level with respect
to amounts used in the determination of
income inclusions by U.S. shareholders
under section 951A. The information in
this schedule will be used by the U.S.
shareholder(s) of the CFC to file Form
8992, U.S. Shareholder Calculation of
Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income
(GILTI), and may assist in the completion
of Form 1118, or Form 1116, if applicable.
Enter the amounts on lines 1 through
10c in the CFC's functional currency. The
functional currency amounts entered on
lines 6 through 10c must be converted to
U.S. dollars.
Certain filers may be able to use
alternative information (as defined in
section 3.01 of Rev. Proc. 2019-40) to
determine certain amounts in this
schedule. See specific instructions for
Item F—Alternative Information Under
Rev. Proc. 2019-40, earlier, for more
details.
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Separate category. Schedule I-1 is now
completed once. (It is no longer
completed separately for each applicable
category of income.) Therefore,
Schedule I-1 is completed once (for
general category income, passive
category income, or both). A Schedule I-1
that includes passive category income on
line 6 must include the code for passive
category income (PAS) in the entry space
for separate category (at the top of
Schedule I-1). This is the case even if the
Schedule I-1 also includes general
category income. With respect to a
taxpayer completing Schedule I-1 with
respect to a foreign corporation with only
general category income (and no passive
category income) on line 6, the taxpayer
should enter the code “GEN” in the entry
space for separate category.
Note. The other reporting requirements of
a taxpayer that includes passive category
income with general category income in a
Schedule I-1 do not change because the
taxpayer includes passive category
income with general category income in a
Schedule I-1. For example, the taxpayer
may still be required to complete a Form
1116 or a Form 1118, and/or a Form 5471
(including Schedule J and Schedule P),
and separately report passive category
income and section 951A category
income.
Line 1. Enter the CFC’s gross income.
The amount of gross income entered on
line 1 will generally be a positive amount.
However, if a CFC’s cost of goods sold
exceeds its gross income, a negative
amount is permitted on line 1.
Line 2. Enter the CFC’s exclusions as
described in Regulations section
1.951A-2(c).
Line 2a. Enter the amount of the
CFC’s income or loss described in section
952(b), which is generally income or loss
from sources within the United States that
is effectively connected to the conduct of a
trade or business by the CFC in the United
States and not reduced or exempt from
tax pursuant to an income tax treaty with
the United States.
Line 2b. Enter the amount, if any, of
the CFC’s gross income or loss taken into
account in determining the CFC’s subpart
F income (as defined in section 952). Note
that an amount determined under section
956(a) is not considered subpart F
income. The amount to be entered is
computed after application of the high-tax
-31-

exception in section 954(b)(4), but before
application of the E&P limitation in section
952(c)(1)(A).
Line 2c. Enter the amount, if any, of
the CFC’s gross income excluded from
foreign base company income (as defined
in section 954) and insurance income (as
defined in section 953) by reason of
section 954(b)(4), the high-tax exception
(include amounts excluded from tested
income under Regulations section
1.951A-2(c)(7).
Line 2d. Enter the amount of any
dividend income received by the CFC
from a related person as defined in section
954(d)(3). Do not include the amounts of
any dividend income received from a
related person that are already included in
the amounts entered on line 2b or line 2c.
Line 2e. Enter the amount of the
CFC’s taxable income or loss from
sources outside the United States and its
possessions from the following.
• The extraction (by the corporation or
any other person) of minerals from oil or
gas wells located outside the United
States and its possessions.
• The sale or exchange of assets used
(by the corporation) in the trade or
business of extracting minerals from oil or
gas wells located outside the United
States and its possessions.
Line 3. Combine lines 2a through 2e. The
line 3 result can be positive or negative.
Line 4. Subtract line 3 from line 1 and
enter the result on line 4. The line 4 result
can be positive or negative. For example:
Line 1
gross
income
Line 3 total
exclusions
Line 4
(line 1
minus
line 3)

$1,000 $1,000
800

$200

(800)

$(1,000) $(1,000)

(800)

$1,800 $(1,800)

$(200)

Line 5. Enter the deductions (including
taxes) properly allocable to the amount on
line 4 (or to which such deductions would
be allocable if there were such gross
income). See section 951A(c)(2)(A)(ii) and
Regulations section 1.951A-2(c)(3).
Line 6. Subtract line 5 from line 4 and
enter the result on line 6. The line 6 result
can be positive or negative. See the line 4
instructions above for examples. This
amount must be converted from functional
currency to U.S. dollars using the average
exchange rate for the year of the CFC.
See Regulations section 1.951A-1(d)(1).
Report the exchange rate using the
“divide-by convention” specified under

Reporting exchange rates on Form 5471,
earlier.
Line 7. If the CFC has a tested loss on
line 6, enter zero. If the CFC has tested
income on line 6, enter only those foreign
income taxes that are properly attributable
to the CFC’s tested income group. This
amount must be converted from functional
currency to U.S. dollars using the average
exchange rate for the year of the CFC.
See section 986.
Line 8. If the CFC has a tested loss on
line 6, enter zero. If the CFC has tested
income on line 6, enter the Qualified
Business Asset Investment (QBAI)
(defined below). This amount must be
converted from functional currency to U.S.
dollars using the average exchange rate
for the year of the CFC. See Regulations
section 1.951A-1(d)(1).
Qualified business asset
investment (QBAI). QBAI is the average
of the CFC's aggregate adjusted bases,
as of the close of each quarter of its
taxable year, in specified tangible property
used in its trade or business in the
production of tested income, and for which
a deduction is allowable under section
167. Adjusted basis in any property must
be determined by using the alternative
depreciation system under section 168(g)
and allocating depreciation deductions
with respect to such property ratably to
each day during the period in the taxable
year to which such depreciation relates.
Specified tangible property and
dual-use property. Specified tangible
property means any tangible property
used in the production of tested income. If
such property was used in the production
of tested income and income that is not
tested income (that is, dual-use property),
the property is treated as specified
tangible property in the same proportion
that the amount of tested income
determined before allocable deductions
(that is, line 4) produced with respect to
the property bears to the total amount of
gross income produced with respect to the
property.
Partnership property. A CFC with
tested income that is a partner of a
partnership that has depreciable tangible
property determines its share of the
partnership’s average adjusted basis in
the depreciable tangible property of the
partnership based on the amount of the
distributive share of the gross income
produced by the property that is included
in the CFC’s gross tested income (defined
below) relative to the total amount of gross
income produced by the property. The
partnership’s average adjusted basis in
the depreciable tangible property of the
partnership is generally determined based
on the average of the adjusted basis in the
property as of the close of each quarter of

the partnership’s tax year that ends with or
within the CFC’s tax year. See
Regulations section 1.951A-3(g).
Gross tested income. For these
purposes, a CFC’s gross tested income is
its gross income less total exclusions
(Schedule I-1, line 4).
Lines 9a through 9d. In general, see
Regulations section 1.951A-4(b)(1) to
determine how to compute the CFC’s
tested interest expense.
Line 9a. Enter the amount of interest
expense included on line 5. See the
instructions for Line 6 for foreign currency
translation.
Line 9b. Enter the CFC’s qualified
interest expense, as defined in
Regulations section 1.951A-4(b)(1)(iii).
Line 9c. Enter the CFC’s tested loss
QBAI amount, as defined in Regulations
section 1.951A-4(b)(1)(iv).
Line 9d. Subtract the sum of line 9b
and line 9c from line 9a and enter the
result on line 9d.
Lines 10a through 10c. In general, see
Regulations section 1.951A-4(b)(2) to
determine how to compute the CFC’s
tested interest income.
Line 10a. Enter the amount of interest
income included on line 4. See the
instructions for Line 6 for foreign currency
translation.
Line 10b. Enter the CFC’s qualified
interest income, as defined in Regulations
section 1.951A-4(b)(2)(iii).
Line 10c. Subtract line 10b from
line 10a and enter the result on line 10c.

Schedule J

Use Schedule J to report a CFC’s
accumulated E&P in its functional
currency, computed under sections 964(a)
and 986(b). Also use this schedule to
report the E&P of specified foreign
corporations that are only treated as CFCs
for limited purposes under section 965(e)
(2).
Note. Category 1b, 1c, 5b, and 5c filers
are not required to file Schedule J for
foreign-controlled corporations.
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. If applicable, use the reference ID
-32-

number shown on Form 5471, page 1,
Item 1b(2).
Lines a and b. Complete a separate
Schedule J for each applicable separate
category of income. Enter the appropriate
code on line a (at the top of page 1 of
Schedule J). To determine the appropriate
code, see Categories of Income in the
Instructions for Form 1118. A foreign
corporation may need to report E&P with
respect to all categories of income listed in
the Instructions for Form 1118, with the
exception of foreign branch category
income. A foreign corporation may have
E&P in an income group within the general
category, passive category, or section
901(j) category. See Regulations section
1.960-1(d)(2)(ii). A foreign corporation
may have PTEP in a PTEP group within
any of the separate categories of income,
with the exception of foreign branch
category income. See Regulations section
1.960-3(c)(1).
If code 901j is entered on line a, enter
on line b the country code for the
sanctioned country using the two-letter
codes (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes).
Note. A separate Schedule J should not
be completed for the section 951A
category. Reclassified section 951A PTEP
and section 951A PTEP that is in the
section 951A category should be reported
on the general category Schedule J.
Note. For purposes of this Schedule J,
include in each separate category of
income, foreign source and U.S. source
income.
Important. In addition to the separate
category codes referred to above, if you
have more than one of the categories of
income referred to above, you must
complete and file a separate Schedule J
using code “TOTAL” that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column in
Part I of all other Schedules J.

Part I—Accumulated E&P of
Controlled Foreign Corporation

Check the box at the top of Part I if the
person filing Form 5471 does not have all
U.S. shareholders’ information necessary
to complete any one of the previously
taxed E&P amounts required to be
included in column (e). If the person filing
Form 5471 is unable to determine whether
amounts should be reported as previously
taxed E&P, those amounts should be
included in column (a), Post-2017 E&P
Not Previously Taxed, section 959(c)(3)
balance. For example, one U.S.
shareholder might not know the amount of
the other U.S. shareholder’s section 951A
inclusion that is allocated to the CFC
because the first U.S. shareholder does
not have information with respect to the

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

second U.S. shareholder’s net CFC tested
income or pro rata share of QBAI. See the
instructions for Schedule P for an
example.
Enter the amounts in this schedule in
the functional currency of the foreign
corporation as reported on Form 5471,
page 1, Item 1h Functional Currency. If
the foreign corporation is the owner of a
qualified business unit(s) (QBU) with a
different functional currency, translate the
E&P of the QBU(s) to the foreign
corporation’s functional currency.

Columns (a), (b), and (c)

Report the opening balance, current year
additions and subtractions, and the
closing balance in the foreign
corporation's E&P described in section
959(c)(3). In general, this is E&P of the
foreign corporation that has not been
included in gross income of a U.S. person
under section 951(a)(1) and section 951A.
In column (a), report E&P described in
section 959(c)(3) and earned after the
repeal of section 902, that is, post-2017
E&P not previously taxed (post-2017
section 959(c)(3) balance). The repeal of
section 902 is effective for tax years of
foreign corporations beginning after
December 31, 2017, and to tax years of
U.S. shareholders in which or with which
such tax years of foreign corporations
end.
In column (b), report post-1986
undistributed earnings, as defined under
section 902(c)(1), and as in effect prior to
the repeal of section 902.
Use column (c) to report the aggregate
amount of the foreign corporation's
pre-1987 section 964(a) E&P accumulated
since 1962 and not previously distributed
or deemed distributed. These amounts are
figured in U.S. dollars using the rules of
Regulations sections 1.964-1(a) through
(d), and translated into the foreign
corporation's functional currency
according to Notice 88-70, 1988-2 C.B.
369.

Column (d)

Use column (d) to report hovering deficits
(see section 381(c)(2)(B) and Regulations
section 1.367(b)-7) and suspended taxes
(see section 909). See Specific
instructions related to lines 1 through 13,
below, for additional information pertaining
to reporting amounts in column (d).

Column (e)

Use column (e) to report the running
balance of the foreign corporation's PTEP,
section 964(a) E&P accumulated since
1962 that have resulted in deemed
inclusions under subpart F, or amounts
treated as PTEP under section 965(b)(4)
(A). Pre-1987 U.S. dollar PTEP should be
translated into the foreign corporation's

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

functional currency using the rules of
Notice 88-70 and added to post-1986
amounts in the appropriate PTEP group.
• Columns (e)(i) and (e)(ii) are PTEP
originally attributable to inclusions under
section 965(a) and E&P treated as PTEP
under section 965(b)(4)(A), respectively,
and reclassified as investments in U.S.
property (section 959(c)(1)(A) amounts).
• Column (e)(iii) is PTEP described in the
following three subgroups (which are
aggregated into a single PTEP group).
1. PTEP attributable to, or reclassified
as, investments in U.S. property (section
959(c)(1)(A) amounts).
2. PTEP attributable to subpart F
income inclusions (not described in any
other column) and reclassified as
investments in U.S. property.
3. PTEP attributable to inclusions
under previous section 951(a)(1)(C) and
subpart F income inclusions reclassified
as investments in excess passive assets.
• Column (e)(iv) is PTEP originally
attributable to inclusions under section
951A and reclassified as investments in
U.S. property (section 959(c)(1)(A)
amounts).
• Column (e)(v) is PTEP described in the
following three subgroups (which are
aggregated into a single PTEP group).
1. PTEP attributable to hybrid
dividends under section 245A(e)(2) and
reclassified as investments in U.S.
property.
2. PTEP attributable to section 1248
amounts under section 959(e) and
reclassified as investments in U.S.
property.
3. PTEP attributable to section 1248
amounts from the gain on the sale of
foreign corporation stock by a CFC and
reclassified as investments in U.S.
property.
• Column (e)(vi) is PTEP attributable to
section 965(a) inclusions (section 959(c)
(2) amounts). Do not include in column (e)
(vi) E&P reported in column (e)(vii).
• Column (e)(vii) is E&P treated as PTEP
under section 965(b)(4)(A) (section 959(c)
(2) amounts).
• Column (e)(viii) is PTEP attributable to
section 951A inclusions (section 959(c)(2)
amounts).
• Column (e)(ix) is PTEP described in the
following three subgroups (which are
aggregated into a single PTEP group).
1. PTEP attributable to hybrid
dividends under section 245A(e)(2).
2. PTEP attributable to section 1248
amounts under section 959(e).
3. PTEP attributable to section 1248
amounts from the gain on the sale of a
foreign corporation stock by a CFC.
• Column (x) is PTEP attributable to
section 951(a)(1)(A) inclusions (section
959(c)(2) amounts) not otherwise
-33-

described in the instructions for columns
(e)(vi) through (ix).
Schedule J reports PTEP by subgroups
because those groups may be subject to
different rules under sections 960, 965(g),
245A(e)(3), and 986(c). The different rules
are applicable for individuals, as well as
corporations, estates, and trusts. For
example, an individual U.S. shareholder
who receives a distribution of PTEP
originally attributable to inclusions under
section 965(a) may only claim a credit for
a portion of the foreign taxes attributable
to a distribution of such PTEP. See section
965(g) and Regulations section 1.965-5
for more information. This is the case for
both direct foreign tax credits (that is,
those foreign taxes paid or accrued
directly by the shareholder upon receipt of
the PTEP distribution and allowed as a
credit under sections 901 or 903) and
indirect foreign tax credits (that is, those
taxes deemed paid by the shareholder
with respect to taxes originally paid or
accrued by the CFC under section
960(b)). With respect to direct credits, this
reduction applies regardless of whether
such individual made an election under
section 962. Therefore, the reporting on
Schedule J is necessary regardless of
whether the U.S. shareholder made a
section 962 election.

Column (f)

Use column (f) to report the opening and
closing balance of the foreign
corporation's accumulated E&P. This
amount is the sum of post-2017 E&P not
previously taxed, post-1986 undistributed
earnings, pre-1987 E&P not previously
taxed, and PTEP. Do not include column
(d) amounts in the total reported in column
(f).

Specific Instructions Related to
Lines 1 Through 13
Line 1a. Enter the balances for each
column at the beginning of the tax year.
These balances should equal the amounts
reported as the ending balances in the
prior year Schedule J.
Line 1b. If there is a difference between
last year’s ending balance on Schedule J
and the amount that should be last year’s
ending balance, taking into account
modifications in Schedule J, include the
difference on line 1b and attach an
explanation for the difference. If there are
multiple reasons for differences, include
the explanation and amount of each such
difference on the attachment. Do not
include adjustments required to be
reported on line 6 or 12.
Lines 1a through 1c. These lines of
column (d) account for the balance of prior
year hovering deficits and suspended
taxes that have not yet been deducted.

Such amounts are reported as negative
numbers.
Line 2a. This line of column (d) is the
unsuspended taxes under section 909 as
a result of related income taken into
account by the foreign corporation, certain
U.S. corporate owners of the foreign
corporation, or a member of such U.S.
corporate owner’s consolidated group.
Report the unsuspended taxes on line 2a
of column (d) as a positive number. Report
the unsuspended taxes as negative
numbers on line 2a of column (a), (b), (c),
or (e), as applicable.
Line 2b. This line of column (d) accounts
for foreign income taxes that are
suspended in the current tax year. Report
such amounts as negative numbers.
Line 3. Enter the current year E&P (or
deficit in E&P) amount from the applicable
line 5c of Schedule H (Form 5471). For
example, if you are completing Schedule J
for the passive category (that is, you have
entered "PAS" on line a at the top of
page 1 of Schedule J), enter the current
year E&P (or deficit in E&P) amount from
Schedule H (Form 5471), line 5c(ii), in the
applicable column. Line 3 should never
have an amount entered in column (e).
Line 4. Report as a positive number E&P
attributable to distributions of PTEP from
lower-tier foreign corporations. Generally,
the E&P of a CFC attributable to amounts
that are, or have been, included in the
gross income of a U.S. shareholder under
section 951(a) are not, when distributed
through a chain of ownership described in
section 958(a), also included in the gross
income of another CFC in such chain for
purposes of the application of section
951(a) to such other CFC with respect to
such U.S. shareholder. See section
959(b).
Line 5a. Enter earnings carried over to a
foreign surviving corporation after an
acquisition by a foreign corporation of the
assets of another foreign corporation in a
transaction described in section 381. See
Regulations section 1.367(b)-7. The
amounts entered on line 5a may be
negative or positive. Negative amounts
are hovering deficits reported in column
(d) of line 5a.
Line 5b. If the foreign surviving
corporation had a deficit in E&P prior to a
transaction described in section 381, such
deficit is recharacterized as a hovering
deficit after such nonrecognition
transaction. See section 381(c)(2)(B) and
Regulations sections 1.367(b)-7(d)(2)(i)
(post-1986 undistributed earnings) and
1.367(b)-7(e)(1) (pre-1987 E&P not
previously taxed). An amount equal to the
deficit reported in column (a), (b), or (c) of
line 5a is included as a positive amount on
line 5b of column (a), (b), or (c),
respectively. An amount equal to the total

hovering deficits reported on line 5b of
columns (a), (b), and (c) is included as a
negative number in column (d) of line 5b.
Line 6. Attach a statement detailing the
nature and amount of any adjustments not
accounted for in the E&P determined
before reduction for distributions and
inclusions (that is, adjustments other than
those listed on lines 2a through 5b). Do
not include amounts reported on line 1b.
An example of an adjustment entered on
Line 6 is the foreign taxes imposed on
receipt of a distribution of PTEP from a
lower-tier foreign corporation.
Example. Domestic Corporation, a
U.S. shareholder, wholly owns the only
class of stock of CFC1, a foreign
corporation. CFC1, in turn, wholly owns
the only class of stock of CFC2, a foreign
corporation. CFC2, in turn, wholly owns
the only class of stock of CFC3, a foreign
corporation. The functional currency of
Domestic Corporation, CFC1, CFC2, and
CFC3 is the U.S. dollar. During Year 1,
Domestic Corporation reports an inclusion
under section 951(a)(1) of $100 as a result
of subpart F income of CFC3. During Year
2, CFC3 distributes $40 to CFC2. CFC2
pays withholding tax of $4 on the
distribution from CFC3. Such tax is related
to previously taxed subpart F income.
Domestic Corporation reports on CFC2’s
Form 5471, Schedule J, line 4, column (e)
(x), as a positive number, the $40 PTEP
distribution. Domestic Corporation reports
on line 6, column (e)(x), as a negative
number, the $4 of tax on the PTEP
distribution.
Line 7. Enter on line 7 E&P as of the
close of the tax year before actual
distributions or inclusions under section
951(a)(1) or section 951A during the year.
Line 8. Enter amounts included in gross
income of the U.S. shareholder(s) under
section 951(a)(1)(A) or section 951A with
respect to the CFC. Report the inclusion
as a negative amount in columns (a)
through (c), as applicable. Report the
inclusion as a positive amount in columns
(e)(vi) through (e)(x), as applicable.
Amounts reported as positive numbers on
line 8 of column (e)(viii) should only be
reported with respect to negative amounts
on line 8 of column (a). The negative
amounts could be reported on a different
Schedule J than the positive amounts if
such amounts are reclassified from one
separate category to another separate
category.
Note. Section 951(a)(1)(A) inclusions are
taken into account for the tax year before
actual distributions and section 951(a)(1)
(B) inclusions. See section 959(a).
Note. The amount included in gross
income of U.S. shareholders of the CFC
under section 951A might not be known if
-34-

there is more than one U.S. shareholder.
In that case, see the example in the
instructions for Schedule P for reporting
information.
Note. The amount reported on line 8 will
not necessarily equal the tested income
reported on Schedule I-1. For an example
of when this might occur, see Regulations
section 1.951A-5(b)(2)(ii).
Line 9. Report actual distributions as
negative numbers.
Note. Actual distributions are taken into
account for the tax year before section
951(a)(1)(B) inclusions. See section 959(f)
(2). An actual distribution is first out of
PTEP, if any, and then out of the section
959(c)(3) balance. See section 959(c).
Note. The total of all amounts entered in
Schedule R (Form 5471), column (d) must
equal the amount on line 9, column (f) of
the Schedule J (Form 5471) that is filed
with code “TOTAL” entered on line a of
that Schedule J.
Line 10. Use line 10 to report
reclassifications of section 959(c)(2) PTEP
in columns (e)(vi) through (e)(x) to section
959(c)(1) PTEP in columns (e)(i) through
(e)(v). A potential section 951(a)(1)(B)
inclusion results in a reclassification of
section 959(c)(2) PTEP, if any, to section
959(c)(1) PTEP before reclassification out
of the section 959(c)(3) E&P balance. See
section 959(a)(2) and (f)(1). The amounts
reclassified are reported as negative
numbers in columns (e)(vi) through (e)(x)
and positive numbers in columns (e)(i)
through (e)(v), as applicable.
Line 11. Use this line to report E&P not
previously taxed, which is treated as
earnings invested in U.S. property and,
therefore, reclassified to section 959(c)(1)
PTEP (column (e)(iii)). The amounts
reclassified are reported as negative
numbers in columns (a) through (c) and
positive numbers in column (e)(iii), as
applicable.
Line 12. Attach a statement detailing the
nature and amount of any adjustments in
E&P not accounted for on lines 8 through
11. Do not include adjustments required to
be reported on line 1b or line 6.
Line 13. The hovering deficit offset
included in column (d) is reported as a
positive number. The same amount
entered in column (d) is reported as a
negative number on line 13 of column (a)
or (b), as appropriate. See section 381(c)
(2)(B) and Regulations section
1.367(b)-7(d)(2)(ii).

Schedule M

Every U.S. person described in Category
4 must file Schedule M to report the

Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

transactions that occurred during the
foreign corporation's annual accounting
period ending with or within the U.S.
person's tax year.
If a U.S. corporation that owns stock in
a foreign corporation is a member of a
consolidated group, list the common
parent as the U.S. person filing
Schedule M.
Important. In translating the amounts
from functional currency to U.S. dollars,
use the average exchange rate for the
foreign corporation's tax year. See section
989(b). Report the exchange rate in the
entry space provided at the top of
Schedule M using the “divide-by
convention” specified under Reporting
exchange rates on Form 5471, earlier.
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. Use the reference ID number
shown on Form 5471, line 1b(2).
Lines 4 and 19. Report on these lines
platform contribution transaction
payments received and paid by the foreign
corporation (without giving effect to any
netting of payments due and owed). See
Regulations section 1.482-7(b)(1)(ii). The
corporation is required to complete both
lines only if the corporation provides a
platform contribution to other controlled
participants and is required to make
platform contribution transaction
payments to other controlled participants
that provide a platform contribution to
other controlled cost sharing arrangement
participants.
Lines 5 and 20. Report on these lines
cost sharing transaction payments
received and paid by the foreign
corporation (without giving effect to any
netting of payments due and owed). See
Regulations section 1.482-7(b)(1)(i). The
corporation is required to complete line 5
only if the corporation itself incurred
intangible development costs. If the
corporation does not itself incur intangible
development costs, then it should only
report cost sharing transaction payments
made on line 20.
Lines 9 and 24. Report on line 9 the sum
of tiered hybrid dividends received by the
foreign corporation during its tax year.
Report on line 24 the sum of hybrid
dividends or tiered hybrid dividends paid
by the foreign corporation during its tax
year.
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Lines 10 and 25. Report on these lines
dividends received and paid by the foreign
corporation not previously taxed under
subpart F in the current year or in any prior
year.
Lines 13 and 28. Report on these lines
loan guarantee fees received (line 13) and
loan guarantee fees paid (line 28). See
section 482.
Lines 14 and 29. Report on these lines
“other amounts received” (line 14) and
“other amounts paid” (line 29).
If an amount is entered on line 14, you
must attach a statement that includes the
following information. Column (a) of the
attached statement should provide a
description of the type of other amounts
received during the annual accounting
period. Columns (b) through (f) should
request dollar amounts of the specified
other amounts received during the annual
accounting period by the foreign
corporation from the persons listed in the
headings for columns (b) through (f).
These headings must comport to those
used on the Schedule M (Form 5471) to
which this statement is attached. The
attached statement must include a “totals”
line that ties into the amounts reported in
each column of line 14.
If an amount is entered on line 29, you
must attach a statement that includes the
following information. Column (a) of the
attached statement should provide a
description of the type of other amount
paid during the annual accounting period.
Columns (b) through (f) should request
dollar amounts of the specified other
amounts paid during the annual
accounting period by the foreign
corporation to the persons listed in the
headings for columns (b) through (f).
These headings must comport to those
used on the Schedule M (Form 5471) to
which this statement is attached. The
attached statement must include a “totals”
line that ties into the amounts reported in
each column of line 29.
Lines 31 and 33. Report on these lines
the largest aggregate outstanding
accounts receivable and payable
balances during the year with the related
parties described in columns (b) through
(f). Report only accounts receivables or
payables arising in connection with the
provision of services or the sale or
processing of property. Only net accounts
receivables and payables to the extent
that the CFC’s books net the accounts
payable against the receivables as
payment of the accounts receivable.
Lines 32 and 34. Report on these lines
the largest outstanding balances during
the year of gross amounts borrowed from,
and gross amounts loaned to, the related
parties described in columns (b) through
(f). Do not enter aggregate cash flows,
-35-

year-end loan balances, average
balances, or net balances. Do not include
an account receivable or payable balance
arising in connection with the provision of
services or the sale or processing of
property if the amount of such balance
does not, at any time during the tax year,
exceed what is ordinary and necessary to
carry on the trade or business. Any
outstanding balance from these
transactions should be reported on the
Balance Sheet (Form 5471, Schedule F,
page 4) and possibly also on Schedule M,
lines 31 and 33.
Accrued payments and receipts. A
corporation that uses an accrual method
of accounting must use accrued payments
and accrued receipts for purposes of
computing the total amount to enter on
each line of Schedule M.

Schedule O

Schedule O is used to report the
organization or reorganization of a foreign
corporation and the acquisition or
disposition of its stock.
Every U.S. citizen or resident described
in Category 2 must complete Part I. Every
U.S. person described in Category 3 must
complete Part II.
See Regulations section 1.6046-1(i) for
rules on determining when U.S. persons
constructively own stock of a foreign
corporation and therefore are subject to
the section 6046 filing requirements.
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. Use the reference ID number
shown on Form 5471, line 1b(2).

Part I
Column (d). Enter the date the
shareholder first acquired 10% or more (in
value or voting power) of the outstanding
stock of the foreign corporation.
Column (e). Enter the date the
shareholder acquired (whether in one or
more transactions) an additional 10% or
more (in value or voting power) of the
outstanding stock of the foreign
corporation.

Part II
Section A—General Shareholder
Information
If the shareholder's latest tax return was
filed electronically, enter “e-filed” in
column (b)(3) instead of a service center.

Section C—Acquisition of Stock
Section C is completed by shareholders
who are completing Schedule O because
they have acquired sufficient stock in a
foreign corporation. If the shareholder
acquired the stock in more than one
transaction, use a separate line to report
each transaction.
Column (d). Enter the method of
acquisition (for example, purchase, gift,
bequest, trade).
Column (e)(2). Enter the number of
shares acquired indirectly (within the
meaning of section 958(a)(2)) by the
shareholder listed in column (a).
Column (e)(3). Enter the number of
shares constructively owned (within the
meaning of section 958(b)) by the
shareholder listed in column (a).

Section D—Disposition of Stock
Section D must be completed by
shareholders who dispose of their interest
(in whole or in part) in a foreign
corporation.
Column (d). Enter the method of
disposition (for example, sale, bequest,
gift, trade).
Example. In 1999, Mr. Jackson, a
U.S. citizen, purchased 10,000 shares of
common stock of foreign corporation X.
The purchase represented 10%
ownership of the foreign corporation.
On July 1, 2021, Mr. Jackson made a
gift of 5,000 shares of foreign corporation
X to his son, John. Because Mr. Jackson
has reduced his holding in the foreign
corporation, he is required to complete
Form 5471 and Schedule O. To show the
required information about the disposition,
Mr. Jackson completes Section D as
follows:
• Enters his name in column (a).
• Enters “common” in column (b).
• Enters “July 1, 2021” in column (c).
• Enters “gift” in column (d).
• Enters “5,000” in column (e)(1).
• Enters “-0-” in column (f) because the
disposition was by gift.
• Enters the name and address of his
son, John, in column (g).

any U.S. person held 10% or more in
value or vote (directly or indirectly) of the
corporation's stock. If there is more than
one such date, use the most recent date.
However, do not enter a date for which
information was reported on Section E.
Instead, enter the date (if any) of any
reorganization prior to that date (if it is
within the last 4 years).
Example for Item (c). Mr. Lyons, a
U.S. person, acquires a 10% ownership in
foreign corporation F. F is the 100% owner
of two foreign corporations, FI and FJ. F is
also a 50% owner of foreign corporation
FK. In addition, F is 90% owned by foreign
corporation W. Mr. Lyons does not own
any of the stock of corporation W.
Mr. Lyons completes and files Form
5471 and Schedule O for the corporations
in which he is a 10% or more shareholder.
Mr. Lyons is also required to submit a
chart if the foreign corporation is a
member of a chain of corporations, and to
indicate if he is a 10% or more
shareholder in any of those corporations.
Mr. Lyons would prepare a list showing
the corporations as follows.
• Corporation W.
• Corporation F.
• Corporation FI.
• Corporation FJ.
• Corporation FK.
Then Mr. Lyons is required to indicate
that he is a 10% or more shareholder in
corporations F, FI, and FJ.

Schedule P

Use Schedule P to report the PTEP in the
U.S. shareholder’s annual PTEP accounts
with respect to a CFC in the CFC’s
functional currency (Part I) and the U.S.
shareholder’s U.S. dollar basis in that
PTEP (Part II). For purposes of the
preceding sentence, a CFC includes an
SFC that is only treated as a CFC for
limited purposes under section 965(e)(2).
Note. A separate Schedule P must be
completed by each Category 1, 4, or 5
U.S. shareholder of the foreign
corporation with respect to which reporting
is furnished on this Form 5471. However,
Category 1c and 5c filers are not required
to file Schedule P for foreign-controlled
corporations.

Section F—Additional Information

If a U.S. shareholder wholly owns the
CFC, Schedule P should include the same
information reported on Schedule J, Part I,
column (e). If there is more than one U.S.
shareholder, the amounts reported on
Schedule P with respect to each U.S.
shareholder might be different from the
amounts reported on Schedule J.

Item (b). List the date of any
reorganization of the foreign corporation
that occurred during the last 4 years while

Example. Corporation A, a domestic
corporation, owns 50% of the only class of
stock of CFC1 and Corporation B, a
-36-

domestic corporation, owns the remaining
50% of the stock of CFC1. Corporation A
wholly owns the only class of stock of
CFC2. The functional currency of all
corporations is the U.S. dollar. CFC1 has
tested income of $100x and CFC2 has
tested loss of $30x. See section 951A(c)
(2). Neither Corporation A nor Corporation
B has any net deemed tangible income
return that would reduce the GILTI
inclusion of Corporation A or B.
Corporation A has a section 951A
inclusion of $20 because its pro rata share
of CFC1’s tested income ($50x) is offset
by its pro rata share of CFC2’s tested loss
($30x). Corporation B has a section 951A
inclusion of $50x. On Schedule P of the
Form 5471 with respect to CFC1 filed by
Corporation B, Corporation B will report on
line 7, column (h), $50x of PTEP as a
result of its section 951A inclusion with
respect to CFC1. Corporation A will report
$20x of PTEP as a result of its section
951A inclusion on its Form 5471,
Schedule P, line 7, column (h), with
respect to CFC1.
The Form 5471, Schedule J, for CFC1
should include PTEP of $70x with respect
to the aggregate section 951A inclusions
of Corporation A and Corporation B.
However, if Corporation A does not know
Corporation B’s section 951A inclusion at
the time Corporation A files its Form 5471,
Corporation A will only be able to
complete Schedule J, Part I, with respect
to its PTEP of $20x on line 8, column (e)
(viii). Similarly, Corporation B will only be
able to complete Schedule J, Part I, with
respect to its PTEP of $50x on line 8,
column (e)(viii). In the following year,
Corporation A and Corporation B should
each report the other corporation’s PTEP
on Schedule J, Part I, line 1b, column (e)
(viii), and the corresponding reduction to
CFC1’s E&P described in section 959(c)
(3) on Schedule J, Part I, line 1b, column
(a).
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. If applicable, use the reference ID
number shown on Form 5471, page 1,
Item 1b(2).
Lines a and b. Complete a separate
Schedule P for each applicable separate
category of income. Enter the appropriate
code on line a (at the top of page 1 of
Schedule P). To determine the
appropriate code, see Categories of
Income in the Instructions for Form 1118.
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

A foreign corporation may have PTEP
in a PTEP group within any of the separate
categories of income, with the exception
of foreign branch category income. See
Regulations section 1.960-3(c)(1).
If code 901(j) is entered on line a, enter
on line b the country code for the
sanctioned country using the two-letter
codes (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes).
Note. A separate Schedule P should not
be completed for the section 951A
category. Reclassified section 951A PTEP
and section 951A PTEP that is in the
section 951A category should be reported
on the Schedule P completed for the
general category.
Note. For purposes of this Schedule P,
include in each separate category of
income, foreign source and U.S. source
income.
Important. In addition to the separate
category codes referred to above, if you
have more than one of the categories of
income referred to above, you must
complete and file a separate Schedule P
using code "TOTAL" that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column of
all other Schedules P.

Part I

Enter amounts in the functional currency
of the foreign corporation as reported on
Form 5471, page 1, Item H Person(s) on
Whose Behalf This Information Return Is
Filed.
Pre-1987 U.S. dollar PTEP should be
translated into the foreign corporation's
functional currency using the rules of
Notice 88-70 and added to post-1986
amounts in the appropriate PTEP
category.

Part II
Dollar basis. Enter amounts in U.S.
dollars. The U.S. shareholder’s U.S. dollar
basis in PTEP is generally equal to the
U.S. dollar amount of E&P that the U.S.
shareholder previously included in gross
income. See Regulation sections 989(b)
(1) and (3), 1.951A-1(d)(1), and
1.965-1(b)(1) and (2).
The U.S. shareholder’s U.S. dollar
basis is used by the U.S. shareholder to
determine the amount of foreign currency
gain or loss on the PTEP that the U.S.
shareholder is required to recognize under
section 986(c).
Columns (a) through (k). Use columns
(a) through (k) to report the opening
balance of, current year additions and
subtractions to, and the closing balance
of, the PTEP in the U.S. shareholder’s
annual PTEP accounts with respect to a
CFC.
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Columns (a) through (j) of Schedule P
correspond to Schedule J, columns (e)(i)
through (e)(x). See the instructions for
Schedule J for specific line instructions.
Line 1b. If there is a difference between
last year’s ending balance on Schedule P
and the amount that should be last year’s
ending balance, taking into account
modifications in Schedule P, include the
difference on line 1b and attach an
explanation for the difference. If there are
multiple differences, include the
explanation and amount of each such
difference on the attachment.

Schedule Q

Use Schedule Q to report the CFC’s
income, deductions, taxes, and assets by
CFC income groups for purposes of
sections 960(a) and (d).
In general, a taxpayer that is subject to
tax as a domestic corporation that is a
U.S. shareholder “(corporate U.S.
shareholder)” of a CFC is deemed to pay
all or a portion of the foreign income taxes
paid or accrued by the CFC that are
properly attributable to subpart F income
or tested income included in gross income
by the corporate U.S. shareholder. See
section 960(a) and (d). A corporate U.S.
shareholder may claim a credit for such
foreign taxes, subject to certain limitations.
Note. If an individual, estate, or trust that
is a U.S. shareholder of a CFC makes an
election under section 962 “(962 electing
shareholder)”, any inclusions under
section 951 or 951A of the U.S.
shareholder will be treated as received by
a corporate U.S. shareholder for purposes
of section 960. See section 962(b) and
Regulations section 1.962-2(b). As a
result, these U.S. shareholders may also
claim a foreign tax credit for foreign
income taxes deemed paid with respect to
such inclusions. See sections 962(a)(1)
and 951A(f)(1)(A).
Note. See also section 1293(f) for
inclusions with respect to a passive
foreign investment company.
To calculate the foreign taxes deemed
paid by the corporate U.S. shareholder
(including a 962 electing shareholder),
determine for each of its CFCs the
income, deductions, and taxes that are
assigned to each separate category of
income and each income group within
each separate category. See Regulations
section 1.960-1(c)(1). The income groups
include the subpart F income groups, the
tested income group, and the residual
income group.

Computer Generated
Schedule Q

Expand the Schedule Q if you are
reporting with respect to more than two
-37-

units and/or with respect to more than one
section 901(j) country. Specifically, if you
are reporting with respect to more than
two units, add to pages 1 and 2, as
appropriate, new lines (3), (4), (5), etc. in
all necessary locations. If you are
reporting with respect to more than one
section 901(j) country, add to page 3 new
lines 1m, 1n, 1o, etc. as needed.

Specific Instructions for
Schedule Q
Name of person filing Form 5471. The
name of the person filing Form 5471 is
generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the applicable category or
categories of filers (see Categories of
Filers, earlier). However, in the case of a
consolidated return, enter the name of the
U.S. parent in the field for “Name of
person filing Form 5471.”
Reference ID number of foreign corporation. If applicable, use the reference ID
number shown on Form 5471, page 1,
item 1b(2).
Line A. Complete a separate Schedule Q
for each applicable separate category of
income. Enter the appropriate code from
the table below for the separate category
of income with respect to which the
Schedule Q is being completed.

Important. In addition to the separate
category codes referred to above, if you
have more than one of the categories of
income referred to above, you must
complete and file a separate Schedule Q
using code “TOTAL” that aggregates all
amounts listed for each line and column in
all other Schedules Q.
Line B. If category code “PAS” is entered
on line A, a separate Schedule Q must be
completed for each applicable grouping
under Regulations section 1.904-4(c)(3).
See Regulations sections 1.954-1(c)(1)(iii)
(B) and 1.904-4(c)(3) through (5). Enter on
line B the appropriate code from the table
below for each of the following groups
under Regulations section 1.904-4(c)(3):

Codes for Passive Groups
Code Passive Group
i

All passive income received during the tax
year that is subject to a withholding tax of
15% or greater must be treated as one
item of income. See Regulations section
1.904-4(c)(3)(i).

ii

All passive income received during the tax
year that is subject to a withholding tax of
less than 15% (but greater than zero)
must be treated as one item of income.
See Regulations section 1.904-4(c)(3)(ii).

iii

All passive income received during the tax
year that is subject to no withholding tax
or other foreign tax must be treated as one
item of income. See Regulations section
1.904-4(c)(3)(iii).

iv

All passive income received during the tax
year that is subject to no withholding tax
but is subject to foreign tax other than a
withholding tax must be treated as one
item of income. See Regulations section
1.904-4(c)(3)(iv).

Note. The grouping rules of Regulations
section 1.904-4(c)(3)(i) through (iv) apply
separately to income attributable to each
foreign QBU of a CFC. See Regulations
section 1.904-4(c)(4). This is one reason
that QBU-by-QBU reporting is required
with respect to the income groups on lines
1a through 1j and line 2.
Line C. Complete a separate Schedule Q
for foreign source income in each
separate category and U.S. source
income in each separate category. Check
the box for either foreign source income or
U.S. source income, as applicable.
Line D. A separate Schedule Q is
required for foreign oil and gas extraction
income (FOGEI) and foreign oil related
income (FORI). If the Schedule Q is being
prepared to report the FOGEI or FORI of a
CFC, check the box for Item D. Indicate
the amount of FOGEI and FORI in each
income group.

Line 1. Subpart F Income
Groups

The separate subpart F income groups
within each applicable section 904
category of a CFC are on line 1 (“subpart
F income groups”). See Regulations
section 1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)(B). Each single
item of foreign base company income (as
defined in Regulations section 1.954-1(c)
(1)(iii)) is a separate subpart F income
group. With respect to a CFC, Regulations
section 1.954-1(c)(1)(iii)(A)(2) identifies as
a single item of income all foreign base
company income (other than foreign
personal holding company income) that
falls within both a single separate category
(typically, general category income) and a
single category of foreign base company
income described in each of Regulations
sections 1.954-1(c)(1)(iii)(A)(2)(i) through

(v). For example, with respect to line 1f,
there is a single subpart F income group
within the general category that consists of
all of a CFC’s foreign base company sales
income.
Use lines 1a through 1e to enter the
passive category foreign personal holding
company income of the CFC under the
appropriate income group (dividends,
interest, rents, royalties, and annuities; net
gain from certain property transactions;
net gain from commodities transactions;
net foreign currency gain; and income
equivalent to interest), each of which is
also treated as a separate subpart F
income group under Regulations section
1.960-1. See Regulations section
1.954-1(c)(1)(iii)(B).
Note. Enter the following passive
category foreign personal holding
company income of the CFC on line 1e:
• Income from notional principal
contracts,
• Payments in lieu of dividends,
• Personal service contracts.
See section 954(c)(1)(F) through (H).
Attach a statement that includes all of
the information requested by Schedule Q
delineating the amount on line 1e for each
of the four groups reporting on line 1e. For
example, if both income equivalent to
interest and income from notional principal
contracts are included on line 1e, on the
statement, identify the amount related to
each of those income groups for each
column.
Use lines 1f through 1i to enter the
foreign base company sales income,
foreign base company services income,
full inclusion income, and insurance
income described in section 952(a)(1) of
the CFC.
To figure the amounts to enter on lines
1a through 1i, on lines (1), (2), etc., under
each line 1a through 1i, enter the name of
each QBU of the CFC, including the CFC
itself, and the information required in each
column (i) through (xiv) with respect to the
amount in each subpart F income group
within each category for each QBU. On
lines 1a through 1i, enter for the total for
each column by adding the amounts on
lines (1), (2), etc., excluding from such
total any amounts reported with respect to
income excluded from subpart F income
under the high-tax exception in section
954(b)(4) (“subpart F high-tax exception”).
These amounts are included in the total
amount of residual income, which is
reported on line 4. As a result, the
amounts included on lines 1a through 1i
for each column may not equal the sum of
the amounts reported on lines (1), (2),
etc., for each column because any item
excluded from subpart F income by
reason of the high-tax election is included
in the summation on line 4 instead of the
-38-

summations on lines 1a through 1i. See
the instructions for column (xiv) and line 4.
Example. For line 1(a)(1), gross income
of $50 is reported in column (ii), foreign tax
of $20 is reported in each of columns (x)
and (xii), and the checkbox in column (xiv)
is checked. For line 1(a)(2), gross income
of $100 is reported in column (ii), $5 of
foreign tax is reported in each of columns
(x) and (xii), and the checkbox in column
(xiv) is not checked. For line 1(a)(3), gross
income of $75 is reported in column (ii), $3
of foreign tax is reported in each of
columns (x) and (xii), and the checkbox in
column (xiv) is not checked. As a result,
the amount reported in column (ii) on
line 1(a) is the sum of the amounts
reported in column (ii) on line 1(a)(2) and
1(a)(3), which is equal to $175 ($100 +
$75). The amounts reported in columns (x)
and (xii) on line 1(a) are the sum of the
amounts reported in each column on lines
1(a)(2) and 1(a)(3), which is equal to $8
($5 + $3). The items reported on line 1(a)
(1), gross income of $50 and $20 of
foreign tax, are not included in the totals
reported on line 1(a). These amounts are
included in the totals for each respective
column on line 4. As a result, the amount
reported on line 4, column (ii), is increased
by $50 and the amount reported in column
(x) on line 4 is increased by $20. No
amount is reported on line 4, column (xii),
because foreign income taxes attributable
to high-tax exception or high-tax exclusion
income are not creditable.
On lines 1j through 1l, enter
international boycott income described in
section 952(a)(3), illegal bribes,
kickbacks, and other payments described
in section 952(a)(4), and income included
in a section 901(j) separate category
described in section 952(a)(5). See
Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)(B)
(2).

Line 2. Recaptured Subpart F
Income

Enter income that is recaptured as subpart
F income in the current year. See section
952(c)(2).

Line 3. Tested Income Group

Use line 3 to report tested income in the
tested income group of the CFC (a “tested
income group”). See Regulations section
1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)(C). On lines (1), (2), etc.,
under line 3, enter the name of each
tested unit of the CFC (including the CFC
tested unit itself) and enter for each tested
unit the information required in columns (ii)
through (xiv), based on the tentative gross
tested income attributable to each tested
unit (without regard to any amounts
excluded under the GILTI high-tax
exclusion in Regulations section
1.951A-2(c)(7) (“GILTI high-tax
exclusion”)). If the GILTI high-tax
exclusion applies with respect to any
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

tested unit of the CFC, include the
amounts reported for columns (ii) through
(xiv) in the total reported on line 4. See the
instructions for line 4. As a result, the total
amount entered on line 3 may not equal
the sum of the amounts reported in
columns (ii) through (xiii) on lines 3(1),
3(2), etc., if any tested unit’s tentative
tested income is excluded under the GILTI
high-tax exclusion (these amounts are
included in the total amounts reported on
line 4). In general, tested income will be in
a single tested income group within the
general category. Because a CFC cannot
earn section 951A category income or
foreign branch category income at the
CFC level, there is no tested income
group within either section 904 category.
With respect to the general category
tested income group of a CFC, GILTI
inclusion amounts and taxes with respect
to the tested income group will generally
be treated as income and deemed paid
taxes in the section 951A category. See
Regulations sections 1.904-4(g) and
1.904-6(e).

checkbox in column (xiv) is not checked.
For line 4(1), $300 of gross income is
reported in column (ii) and $105 of foreign
tax is reported in column (x). On line 4(1),
both columns (xii) and (xiv) should be
blank in all cases. As a result, the amount
reported on line 4 for column (ii) is the sum
of the amounts reported in column (ii) on
lines 1(a)(1), 3(1), and 4(1), which equals
$600 ($100 + $200 + $300). The amount
reported in column (x), line 4, is the sum of
the amounts reported in column (x) on
lines 1(a)(1), 3(1), and 4(1), which equals
$210 ($35 + $70 + $105). No amount
should be reported in column (xii) of line 4
as foreign tax on residual amounts are not
creditable. The amounts reported on
line 1(a)(1) would not be included in the
total for line 1(a), but the amount reported
on line 1(a)(2) would be included in the
total reported on line 1(a). Similarly, the
amounts reported on line 3(1) would not
be included in the total reported on line 3,
but the amounts reported on line 3(2)
would be reported in the total reported on
line 3.

Line 4. Residual Income Group

Column (i). Consistent with the reporting
requirement on Form 1118, enter the
two-letter code (from the list at IRS.gov/
CountryCodes) of each foreign country
and U.S. possession within which income
is sourced and/or to which taxes were
paid or accrued.

Use line 4 to report the information
required in columns (i) through (xiv) that is
in a section 904 category but that is not of
a type that is included in one of the
subpart F income groups or a tested
income group and is therefore assigned to
the residual income group. See
Regulations section 1.960-1(d)(2)(ii)(D).
Enter the name of each QBU and enter the
information required for columns (i)
through (xiv) for each QBU on lines 4(1),
4(2), etc., but do not enter amounts
excluded from subpart F income under the
subpart F high-tax exception (those
amounts are reported on lines (1), (2), etc.
under lines 1a through 1i) or tested
income under the GILTI high-tax exclusion
(those amounts are reported on lines 3(1),
3(2), etc.). Enter the sum of the amounts
reported on lines 4(1), 4(2), etc., plus the
sum of amounts excluded from subpart F
income under the subpart F high-tax
exception and tested income under the
GILTI high-tax exclusion, in the
appropriate column on line 4.

Example. For line 1(a)(1), $100 of gross
income is reported in column (ii), $35 of
foreign tax is reported in each of columns
(x) and (xii), and the checkbox in column
(xiv) is checked. For line 1(a)(2), $75 of
gross income is reported in column (ii), $5
of foreign tax is reported in each of
columns (x) and (xii), and the checkbox in
column (xiv) is not checked. For line 3(1),
$200 of gross income is reported in
column (ii), $70 of foreign tax is reported in
each of columns (x) and (xii), and the
checkbox in column (xiv) is checked. For
line 3(2), $150 of gross income is reported
in column (ii), $10 of foreign tax is reported
in each of columns (x) and (xii), and the
Instructions for Form 5471 (Rev. 01-2022)

Column (ii). Enter the amount of gross
income of the CFC that is assigned to
each income group within each section
904 category.
Columns (iii) through (vii). Expenses.
Deductions of the CFC, including for
current-year taxes, are allocated and
apportioned to the income groups to
determine net income (or loss) in each
income group and to identify the current
year foreign income taxes that relate to the
income in each income group for section
960 purposes. See Regulations sections
1.960-1(c)(1) and 1.960-1(d)(3)(ii). Enter
the expenses allocated and apportioned
to the item of gross income reported for
each QBU or tested unit as well as the
aggregate amount of such expenses
allocated and apportioned to each group.
See the instructions for lines 1 through 4.
Column (viii). Current-year tax on reattributed income from disregarded payments. This column is used to report
current-year tax imposed solely by reason
of the receipt of a disregarded payment
that is a reattribution payment. The current
year tax is allocated and apportioned to
the income group to which an amount of
gross income is assigned by reason of the
receipt of the reattribution payment. See
Regulations sections 1.960-1(d)(3)(ii)(A)
and 1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(B). Report
current-year taxes allocated and
apportioned to the item of gross income
reported for each QBU or tested unit as
-39-

well as the aggregate amount of such
foreign taxes in each group. See the
instructions for lines 1 through 4.
Column (ix). Current-year tax on all
other disregarded payments. This
column is used to report current tax
imposed solely by reason of the receipt of
a disregarded payment other than a
reattribution payment, and which is
therefore either a remittance or a
contribution. See Regulations section
1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(C). Foreign tax imposed
by reason of a disregarded payment that
is a remittance is assigned to the income
groups based upon the assets of the
payor. See Regulations section
1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(C)(1). Foreign tax
imposed by reason of a disregarded
payment that is a contribution is assigned
to the residual grouping. See Regulations
section 1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(C)(2). Report
current-year taxes allocated and
apportioned to the item of gross income
reported for each QBU or tested unit as
well as the aggregate amount of such
foreign taxes allocated and apportioned to
each group. See the instructions for lines
1 through 4.
Column (x). Other current-year taxes.
Any other current-year tax is allocated and
apportioned among the section 904
categories under the rules of Regulations
section 1.904-6(a) based on the portion of
the foreign taxable income (as
characterized under federal income tax
principles) that is assigned to a particular
section 904 category. Any other current
year foreign tax is allocated to the CFC
income group to which the items of foreign
gross income are assigned under the rules
of Regulations section 1.861-20. Report
current-year taxes allocated and
apportioned to the item of gross income
reported for each QBU or tested unit as
well as the aggregate amount of such
foreign taxes allocated and apportioned to
each group. See the instructions for lines
1 through 4.
Column (xii). Foreign taxes for which
credit is allowed (U.S. dollars). The
amount reported in column (xii) may not
be the same as the sum of the amounts in
columns (viii) through (x) if columns (viii)
through (x) include taxes that are not
creditable, including taxes paid or accrued
to sanctioned countries, foreign taxes
disallowed under sections 901(k), (m),
and (l), and taxes paid or accrued to the
United States.
Column (xiii). Average asset value.
Foreign gross income that arises from a
disregarded payment that is treated as a
remittance for U.S. tax purposes is
assigned to an income group by reference
to the income groups to which the assets
of the payor taxable unit are assigned (or
would be assigned if the taxable unit were
a United States person) under the rules of

Regulations section 1.861-9 for purposes
of apportioning interest expense. This rule
uses the payor’s asset apportionment
percentages as a proxy for the
accumulated earnings of the payor taxable
unit from which the remittance is made.
For this purpose the assets of the taxable
unit making the remittance are determined
in accordance with the rules of
Regulations section 1.987-6(b) that apply
in determining the source and separate
category of exchange gain or loss on a
section 987 remittance, as modified in two
respects. See Regulations section
1.861-20(d)(3)(v)(C)(1). Report asset
values for each QBU or tested unit as well
as the aggregate amount of assets in each
group. See the instructions for lines 1
through 4.
Column (xiv). High-tax election. Check
the box in column (xiv) of the line
corresponding to any item of income with
respect to which the subpart F high-tax
exception applies. If any amount is
excluded under the subpart F high-tax
exception, do not include it in the total for
line 1a through 1i, but instead add the
amount to the total for line 4. See the
instructions for lines 1 and 4. If a GILTI
high-tax exclusion under Regulations
section 1.951A-2(c)(7)(viii) is effective with
respect to the CFC for the CFC inclusion
year, check the box in column (xiv) that
corresponds to the item(s) of income to
which the exception applies. If an amount
reported on line 3(1), 3(2), etc., is
excluded from gross income under the
GILTI high-tax exclusion, do not include it
in the total amount for line 3. Instead,
include the amounts in the total for line 4.
See the instructions for lines 3 and 4.

However, in the case of a consolidated
return, enter the name of the U.S. parent
in the field for “Name of person filing Form
5471.”

Reference ID Number of
Foreign Corporation

If applicable, use the reference ID number
shown on Form 5471, page 1, Item 1b(2).

Column (a): Description of distribution. The description should include
whether the distribution was cash or
non-cash and taxable or nontaxable to
shareholders. Use code sections to
properly identify the taxable or nontaxable
consequences of the distribution. For
example, “taxable cash dividend eligible
for a dividends received deduction under
section 245A ” or “nontaxable cash
distribution of PTEP.”Report parts of a
distribution on separate rows if the
distribution is partially taxable and partially
nontaxable, or if the distribution is either
taxable or nontaxable by reason of
different Code sections. For example, a
cash distribution of $100 that is a
nontaxable distribution of PTEP under
section 959(a) of $30, a taxable dividend
eligible for a dividends received deduction
under section 245A of $15, a taxable
dividend under section 301(c)(1) of $25, a
nontaxable distribution applied against
basis under section 301(c)(2) of $10, and
a taxable distribution treated as gain from
the sale or exchange of property under
section 301(c)(3) of $20, would be
reported on five rows.
If non-cash distributions were made,
attach a statement and show both the tax
bases and fair market values.

Schedule R

Column (b): Date of distribution. Enter
the month, day, and year using the
following format: MM-DD-YYYY. For
example, June 30, 2021, would be
entered as “06-30-2021.”

Name of Person Filing Form
5471

Column (c): Amount of distribution in
foreign corporation's functional currency. The amount of a distribution is
generally the amount of any money paid to
the shareholder plus the fair market value
(FMV) of any property transferred to the
shareholder. However, this amount is
reduced (but not below zero) by the
following liabilities.

Schedule R is used to report basic
information pertaining to distributions from
foreign corporations. This information is
required by sections 245A, 959, and
986(c).

The name of the person filing Form 5471
is generally the name of the U.S. person
described in the category or categories of
filers (see Categories of Filers, earlier).

• Any liability of the corporation the
shareholder assumes in connection with
the distribution.
• Any liability to which the property is
subject immediately before, and
immediately after, the distribution.
Column (d): Amount of E&P distribution in foreign corporation's functional
currency. A corporate distribution to a
shareholder is generally treated as a
distribution of earnings and profits. Report
distributions from current and
accumulated earnings and profits. Do not
report any part of a distribution that is not
from earnings and profits.
An actual distribution is first out of
PTEP, if any, and then out of the section
959(c)(3) balance. See section 959(c).
If PTEP were distributed, include on
Form 5471, Schedule I, line 6, any foreign
currency gain or loss on the distribution
that is recognized under section 986(c).
See the instructions for Form 5471,
Schedule I, Line 6 for details. With respect
to foreign currency gain or loss on a
distribution of GILTI: For a corporate U.S.
shareholder, include the gain or (loss) as
“Other income” on Form 1120, line 10, or
on the comparable line of other corporate
tax returns. For a noncorporate U.S.
shareholder, include the result as “Other
income” on Schedule 1 (Form 1040),
line 8z, or on the comparable line of other
noncorporate tax returns.
Note. E&P described in section 959(c)(3)
is generally E&P of the foreign corporation
that has not been included in gross
income of a U.S. shareholder under
section 951(a)(1) or section 951A.
Note. Amounts entered in Schedule R
(Form 5471), column (d) are also included
on line 9, column (f) of Schedule J (Form
5471) and Part I, line 8 of Schedule P
(Form 5471), both of which are completed
by separate category of income. If the filer
is required to complete Schedule J (Form
5471) with respect to more than one
category of income, the total of all
amounts entered in Schedule R (Form
5471), column (d) should equal the
amount entered on line 9, column (f) of the
Schedule J (Form 5471) that is filed with
code “TOTAL” entered on line a of that
Schedule J.
