Form 8892 was created to serve a dual
purpose. First, the form enables taxpayers to request an extension
of time to File 709, when they are not filing an individual income
tax extension. Second, it serves as a payment voucher for
taxpayers, who are filing an individual income tax extension (by
Form 4868) and will have a gift tax balance due on Form
709.
