We ask for the information on this form to carry out the Internal Revenue laws of the United States. Section 6109 requires that you provide your social security number; this is so we know who you are, and can process your Form 706-D. We need the information to figure and collect the right amount of tax. Subtitle B, Estate and Gift Taxes, of the Internal Revenue Code, imposes a tax in some cases on qualified heirs when a section 2057(f) “taxable event” occurs with respect to a QFOBI. Form 706-D is used to determine the amount, if any, of taxes owed.

We may also disclose this information to other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism.
