1120-F Schedule Q Tax Liability of Qualified Derivatives Dealer (QDD)

Note: The draft you are looking for begins on the next page.

Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING

This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or publication,
which the IRS is providing for your information. Do not file draft forms and do
not rely on draft forms, instructions, and publications for filing. We do not
release draft forms until we believe we have incorporated all changes (except
when explicitly stated on this coversheet). However, unexpected issues
occasionally arise, or legislation is passed—in this case, we will post a new draft
of the form to alert users that changes were made to the previously posted draft.
Thus, there are never any changes to the last posted draft of a form and the
final revision of the form. Forms and instructions generally are subject to OMB
approval before they can be officially released, so we post only drafts of them
until they are approved. Drafts of instructions and publications usually have
some changes before their final release.
Early release drafts are at IRS.gov/DraftForms and remain there after the
final release is posted at IRS.gov/LatestForms. All information about all forms,
instructions, and pubs is at IRS.gov/Forms.
Almost every form and publication has a page on IRS.gov with a friendly
shortcut. For example, the Form 1040 page is at IRS.gov/Form1040; the Pub.
501 page is at IRS.gov/Pub501; the Form W-4 page is at IRS.gov/W4; and the
Schedule A (Form 1040/SR) page is at IRS.gov/ScheduleA. If typing in a link
above instead of clicking on it, be sure to type the link into the address bar of
your browser, not a Search box.
If you wish, you can submit comments to the IRS about draft or final forms,
instructions, or publications at IRS.gov/FormsComments. Include “NTF”
followed by the form number (for example, “NTF1040” or “NTFW4”, etc.) in the
body of the message to route your message properly. We cannot respond to all
comments due to the high volume we receive and may not be able to consider
many suggestions until the subsequent revision of the product, but we will
review each routed message.
If you have comments on reducing paperwork and respondent (filer) burden,
with respect to draft or final forms, please respond to the relevant information
collection through the Federal Register process; for more info, click here.

Who Must File
If the corporation or any branch of the corporation was a
qualified derivatives dealer (QDD) (defined below) during the tax
year, Schedule Q must be completed and filed for each of those
QDDs. The corporation must file Schedule Q as an attachment
to Form 1120-F even if the QDD has zero tax liability.
Qualified derivatives dealer (QDD). A QDD is a home office or
branch that, in accordance with the qualified intermediary
agreement (QIA) (defined below), qualifies and has been
approved for QDD status and satisfies the requirements of the
QIA. See the QIA for additional information.
Qualified intermediary agreement (QIA). The QIA is section 6
of Rev. Proc. 2017-15.

General Instructions
A separate Schedule Q is required for each QDD. In addition, if
a corporation has a fiscal year rather than a calendar year, the
corporation must provide a separate Schedule Q for each QDD
for each portion of the fiscal year that falls within the calendar
year.
Example: A QDD with a fiscal year beginning September 1 and
ending August 31 would complete 2 schedules (one for the
period of January 1, 2022 through August 31, 2022, and one for
the period of September 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022).

Specific Instructions
Name of QDD. The name of the QDD should follow the naming
protocol used for applying to be a QDD.
Number of schedules filed. A QDD may be required to file
multiple Schedules Q, for example, if it has multiple branches
that are QDDs or if it is a fiscal year taxpayer (as explained in
General Instructions above). Indicate the number of each
Schedule Q filed, as well as the total number of Schedules Q
being filed by the corporation in the entry spaces provided.

Column (c), Amount of Tax Liability. Except as provided in the
Note that immediately follows this paragraph, the amount in
column (c) is determined by multiplying column (a) by column
(b). This column is not reduced by any withholding that has
occurred.
Note: For calendar years 2018 through 2022, certain information
is not required, as indicated in the line instructions below.
However, if the corporation has a fiscal year (rather than a
calendar year) that begins in 2022 and ends in 2023, information
is required for any amounts paid or accrued on or after January
1, 2023.
Line 1. The gross amount to be entered in column (a) is the sum
of each section 871(m) amount for the QDD for the relevant
period. See section 2.73 of the QIA for the definition of section
871(m) amount.
Note: For calendar years 2019 through 2022, this information is
not required.
Line 2. For calendar years 2019 through 2022, only the gross
amount (column (a)) and tax rate (column (b)) are required.
Line 3. Column (c) is the sum of each section 3.09(A) amount for
the QDD for the relevant period.
Note: For calendar years 2019 through 2022, this information is
not required.
Line 4. Enter the information requested in columns (a), (b), and
(c).
Line 5. In addition to specifying the type of income (for
example, dividends or interest), enter the information requested
in columns (a), (b), and (c) separately for each income type. For
dividends, include all dividends, including dividends separately
stated on line 2.
Note: For calendar years 2019 through 2022, do not include
dividends included on line 2.
