officer or an employee, or the designee of an officer or
employee, having control of a program established by a state
or eligible educational institution; and (b) made a distribution

Account Number
The account number is required if you have multiple
accounts for a recipient for whom you are filing more than
one Form 1099-Q. Additionally, the IRS encourages you to
designate an account number for all Forms 1099-Q that you
file. See part L in the current General Instructions for Certain
Information Returns.
Do not file Form 1099-Q for a change in the name of the
designated beneficiary on a QTP account if the new
beneficiary is a member of the former beneficiary's family.
For a Coverdell ESA, the new beneficiary must be a member
of the designated beneficiary's family and be under age 30
(except beneficiaries with special needs).

box if the distribution was made directly to another Coverdell
ESA or to a QTP.
In a trustee-to-trustee transfer between qualified

you with a statement reporting the earnings portion of the
distribution within 30 days of the distribution or by January
10, whichever is earlier. You must properly account for this in
figuring the earnings or (loss) reported in box 2 and the basis
reported in box 3.

established by one or more private eligible educational
institutions, or check the “State” box if the distribution is from
a QTP established by a state. Otherwise, check the
“Coverdell ESA” box.
To determine the earnings or (loss) on the gross distribution
reported in box 1, use the earnings ratio described in
Proposed Regulations section 1.529-3, Notice 2001-81, and

Check the box if the recipient is not the designated
beneficiary under a QTP or a Coverdell ESA (see section
529(e)(1)).
Enter the earnings in box 2. If there is a loss and this is not
the final year for distributions from the account or there are
no earnings, enter zero in box 2. Enter a loss in box 2 only if
this is the final year for distributions from the account.
Earnings are not subject to backup withholding.
If you are reporting a distribution from a Coverdell ESA
that includes a returned contribution plus earnings, you
should file two Forms 1099-Q, one to report the returned
contribution plus earnings, the other to report the distribution
of the other part of the account.
