Short Statement: This request has been divided into 2 ICs to more accurately describe the way information is requested and burden distributed on the public. On Form 1120-RIC line 25 is revised so that it is now lines 25a, 25b and 25c, to capture deductions for dividends paid and taxes paid under sections 851(d)(2) and 851(i). On page 2, Schedule B, Line 1, we added the reference to IRC section 852(g) per section 303 of the RIC Modernization Act of 2010, which allows a fund to qualify to pay tax exempt interest dividends regardless if the RIC meets the requirements under section 852(b)(5). On page 2, Schedule J we added line 2c with check boxes to capture taxes paid under sections 851(d)(2) and 851(i). On page 3, Schedule K, Line 10, we added line 10b to capture elections to pass through deductions and credits for foreign taxes paid to shareholders.
