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. 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.
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.

Future Developments

Domestic partnerships. Domestic
partnerships are no longer required to
complete Form 8992 or Schedule A (Form
8992). Instead, domestic partnerships
must complete Schedule K-2 (Form 1065),
Part VI, and Schedule K-3 (Form 1065),
Part VI.

U.S. shareholder. A U.S. shareholder of
a foreign corporation is a U.S. person who
owns (directly, indirectly, or constructively,
within the meaning of section 958) 10% or
more of the total combined voting power
of all the classes of voting stock of the
foreign corporation or 10% or more of the
total value of shares of all classes of stock
of the foreign corporation.

October 31, 2022

For the latest information about
developments related to Form 8992 and
its instructions, such as legislation
enacted after they were published, go to
IRS.gov/Form8992.

Additional guidance may be issued
subsequent to these instructions. Please
review any additional information on
IRS.gov/Form8992 prior to completing
Form 8992.

What’s New
Form 8992. Part II, line 5, of the form
shows the U.S. shareholder’s GILTI
inclusion amount. Line 5 of the form
instructs filers to subtract line 4 from line 1.
The following sentence has been added at
the end of line 5 of the form: “If zero or
less, enter -0-.” This clarification is
consistent with the “Note” that was already
present in the specific instructions for
Form 8992, Part II, line 5. It has now been
added to the form to make the form more
intuitive.
Schedule A and Schedule B. With
respect to Schedule A (Form 8992),
column (b), and Schedule B (Form 8992),
Part I, column (b), those columns request
an employer identification number (EIN) or
reference ID number with respect to
Controlled Foreign Corporations (CFCs).
With respect to each CFC, if the CFC has
an EIN, the taxpayer must enter that EIN in
column (b). Taxpayers will no longer have
the option to enter “APPLIED FOR” in
column (b) in lieu of an EIN. If the CFC
does not have an EIN, the taxpayer must
enter a reference ID number that uniquely
identifies the CFC. Taxpayers will no
longer have the option to enter
“FOREIGNUS” in column (b) in lieu of a
reference ID number. Also, if the taxpayer
has filed or will be filing a Form 5471 with
respect to the CFC, the reference ID
number for that CFC must be the same on
Form 5471 and column (b) of either
Schedule A (Form 8992) or Schedule B
(Form 8992), Part I, as applicable.

Reminders
Form 8993 deduction. If you are eligible
for a deduction under section 250 for your
GILTI inclusion, please see Form 8993,

Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (FDII)

General Instructions

Purpose of Form

Public Law 115-97 (Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
of 2017) enacted section 951A, which
requires U.S. shareholders who own
(within the meaning of section 958(a)) a
CFC to include GILTI in gross income.
Form 8992 is used by a U.S. shareholder
to calculate the amount of the GILTI
inclusion and to report related information.
Generally, Schedule A (Form 8992) is also
completed and attached to Form 8992.
However, if the U.S. shareholder is a
member of a U.S. consolidated group,
Schedule B (Form 8992) is completed and
attached to Form 8992 instead.

Who Must File

A U.S. shareholder (including a partner of
a domestic partnership) that owns, within
the meaning of section 958(a), stock in
one or more CFCs. See Regulations
sections 1.951A-1(e) and 1.6038-5(a).

Members of a U.S. consolidated group.
While each U.S. shareholder that is a
member of a U.S. consolidated group is
required to complete a separate Form
8992, these Forms 8992 should not be
filed with the consolidated return. Instead,
a single consolidated Form 8992 must be
completed and filed with the consolidated
group's return. See the instructions for
Schedule B, later, for information
regarding the steps necessary to complete
Schedule B (Form 8992) and Form 8992.
S corporations that elect entity treatment. An S corporation that elects to be
treated as an entity under Notice 2020-69
must file Form 8992. For additional
information, see the Instructions for Form
1120-S.
CFC. A CFC is generally a foreign
corporation of which more than 50% of the
total combined voting power or value is
owned directly, indirectly, or constructively
(within the meaning of section 958) by
U.S. shareholders.

Cat. No. 71351C

When and Where To File

In general, attach Form 8992 and
Schedule A (Form 8992) to your income
tax return (or exempt organization return,
as applicable) and file both by the due
date (including extensions) for that return.
Members of a U.S. consolidated group.
Attach Schedule B (Form 8992) and one
consolidated Form 8992 to the U.S.
consolidated group's income tax return
and file both by the due date (including
extensions) for that return. See the
instructions for Schedule B, later, for
information regarding the steps necessary
to complete Schedule B (Form 8992) and
Form 8992.

S corporations that elect entity treatment. An S corporation that elects to be
treated as an entity under Notice 2020-69
must complete Form 8992 and
Schedule A (Form 8992) and attach them
to its Form 1120-S by the due date
(including extensions) for that return. For
additional information, see the Instructions
for Form 1120-S.

Computer-Generated Form
8992

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 [email protected],
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.
Be sure to attach the approval
letter to Form 8992. However, if
CAUTION 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/Pub1167.

Corrections to Form 8992

If you file a Form 8992 that you later
determine is incomplete or incorrect, file a
corrected Form 8992 with an amended tax
return, using the amended return
instructions for the return with which you
originally filed Form 8992. Write
“Corrected” at the top of Form 8992 and
attach a statement identifying the

inclusion amount, if any, and to determine
the amount of the U.S. shareholder’s
GILTI inclusion amount, if any, allocated to
each of its CFCs. If a U.S. shareholder
does not file a Schedule I-1 (Form 5471)
for a CFC that is part of its GILTI
computation, for instance, due to an
exception for multiple filers of the same
information, the U.S. shareholder will still
need to provide amounts with respect to
each CFC as if the U.S. shareholder filed
Schedule I-1 (Form 5471) for that CFC.
