Instructions for Form
8038-CP and Schedule A
(Form 8038-CP)
(Rev. December 2023)
Return for Credit Payments to Issuers of Qualified Bonds
Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless
otherwise noted.
31, 2010, then the bonds may no longer be qualified bonds
under the applicable section and the issuer may no longer be
entitled to request a payment using Form 8038-CP.
Future Developments
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (P.L. 115-97) repealed the
authority to issue tax credit bonds (including the election to
receive a refundable credit under former section 6431), including
specified tax credit bonds. The repeal applies to qualified
forestry conservation bonds, NCREBs, QECBs, QZABs, and
QSCBs issued after December 31, 2017. If an issuer takes
action that results in a significant modification or reissuance of
specified tax credit bonds after the effective date of the Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act, then the bonds may no longer be qualified bonds
under the applicable section and the issuer may no longer be
entitled to request a payment using Form 8038-CP.
For the latest information about developments related to Form
8038-CP and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after
What's New
Electronic filing is available and may be required. Under
final regulations (T.D. 9972) published in February 2023, filers
are required to file Form 8038-CP electronically if they are
required to file 10 or more returns of any type in a calendar year.
The final regulations are effective for Forms 8038-CP filed after
December 31, 2023. Additionally, any other filer of Form
8038-CP may voluntarily file Form 8038-CP electronically. (See
Where To File, later, for more information.)
Form 8038-CP is used by issuers of BABs and RZEDBs, and
specified tax credit bonds (Direct Pay bonds) that elect to
receive a direct payment from the federal government equal to a
percentage of the interest payments on these bonds. For more
information, see Notices 2009-26, 2009-16 I.R.B. 833, and
2010-35, 2010-19 I.R.B. 660.
Variable rate bonds. There are updated instructions for
line 17a which include two examples.
Reminders
General Instructions
Note. Each type of bond must be reported on a separate Form
8038-CP.
Other tax credit bonds, including QZABs issued pursuant to
an allocation of 2011 (or later) volume cap, qualified forestry
conservation bonds, clean renewable energy bonds, and
Midwestern tax credit bonds are not eligible for the election by
the issuer to receive refundable credit payments under former
section 6431(f).
Use Correct Version of Form and Schedule A
Use the January 2022 version of Form 8038-CP and the
December 2022 version of Schedule A to Form 8038-CP.
Receipt by the IRS of a prior version of the Form 8038-CP could
result in a delay of the credit payment or otherwise affect normal
processing.
This return is to be filed only if, as of the date filed, the
issuer of the outstanding bonds for which this return is
!
Purpose of Form
CAUTION
submitted has reasonably concluded that the bonds
meet all applicable requirements for the payment of the
requested credit.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA)
created build America bonds (BABs) and recovery zone
economic development bonds (RZEDBs). The Hiring Incentives
to Restore Employment Act (HIRE Act) provided an option for
issuers of new clean renewable energy bonds (NCREBs),
qualified energy conservation bonds (QECBs), qualified zone
academy bonds (QZABs), and qualified school construction
bonds (QSCBs) to elect to issue such bonds as specified tax
credit bonds. The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance
Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 (the Tax Relief
Act) discontinued the option to elect to issue QZABs as
specified tax credit bonds for bonds issued pursuant to an
allocation of the 2011 or later national QZAB limitation. The
ARRA, the HIRE Act, and the Tax Relief Act are referred to
throughout these instructions as “the Acts”.
Who Must File
Issuers of BABs (Direct Pay), RZEDBs, and specified tax credit
bonds must submit this return to request credit payments
payable under “the Acts”.
What To File
Issuers of BABs (Direct Pay), RZEDBs, and specified tax credit
bonds are required to submit the most recent version of Form
8038-CP after the effective date of the version to request
payment of a refundable credit. As of the date of publication of
these instructions, the most recent version of Form 8038-CP is
the January 2022 version to be used for all such forms to be
received by the IRS on or after January 1, 2022. As of the date of
publication of these instructions, the most recent version of
Schedule A is the December 2022 version.
Note. Only issuers of BABs and RZEDBs issued before January
1, 2011, and specified tax credit bonds issued before January 1,
2018, that qualify for, and have elected to receive, a refundable
credit under former section 6431 may file Form 8038-CP. The
authority to issue BABs and RZEDBs expired on January 1,
2011. If an issuer takes action that results in a significant
modification or reissuance of BABs or RZEDBs after December
The payment requested on Form 8038-CP can only relate to
the interest payable on a single bond issue. If the issue has both
fixed rate bonds and variable rate bonds, file a separate Form
8038-CP for each interest rate structure. If a single bond issue

Assembling Form 8038-CP, Schedule A, and
Attachments
Before filing Form 8038-CP, assemble the package of the core
form, Schedule A, and attachments in the following order.
When To File
1. Core form with Parts I through III, Direct Deposit (if
applicable), Signature and Consent, and Paid Preparer Use Only
(if applicable) completed.
2. Schedule A completed, if applicable. Schedule A must
be submitted for all NCREBs, QECBs, QZABs, and QSCBs for
which the issuer has elected to receive a refundable credit under
former section 6431.
A Form 8038-CP filed for fixed rate bonds must be filed no later
than 45 days before the relevant interest payment date. Form
8038-CP may not, however, be submitted earlier than 90 days
before the relevant interest payment date. See Notice 2009-26,
2009-16 I.R.B. 883.
For variable rate bonds, when the issuer knows the interest
payment amount 45 days prior to the interest payment date,
Form 8038-CP may be filed within the same timelines as fixed
rate bonds (45 days before the relevant interest payment date
but no earlier than 90 days before the relevant interest payment
date). However, a separate Form 8038-CP should still be filed for
the variable rate bonds. See also the specific instructions below
for completing line 17a.
3. Attachments completed as applicable. If applicable,
include:
a. An explanation for an amended return,
b. An explanation for line 21c,
c. A revised debt service schedule,
d. An explanation for line 23b, and
e. An explanation for line 24b.
For variable rate bonds when the issuer doesn’t know the
interest payment amount 45 days prior to the interest payment
date, the issuer must aggregate all credit payments on a
quarterly basis and file a Form 8038-CP for reimbursement in
arrears no later than 45 days after the last interest payment date
within the quarterly period for which the reimbursement is being
requested. See also the specific instructions below for
completing line 17a.
Don't attach materials not authorized in these instructions or
not otherwise authorized by the IRS.
To facilitate the processing of your e-filed return, don't
password protect or encrypt PDF attachments.

Waivers and exemptions. On a year-by-year basis, the IRS
may waive the requirements to file Form 8038-CP electronically.
In certain circumstances, a filer may be administratively exempt
from the requirement to file electronically. The filer should keep
documentation supporting their undue hardship or other
applicable reason for not filing electronically in the filer’s records.
For more information about mandatory electronic filing, waivers,
and exemptions, see Regulations section 301.6011-11.
Where the Requested Payment Will Be Sent
The credit payment on line 22 will be sent by check to the entity
that is to receive payment listed in Part I at the address
designated in Part I, unless the issuer has elected to have the
payment deposited directly, in which case the payment will be
directly deposited to the Automated Clearing House (ACH)
routing and account numbers listed on lines 26a and 26c.

the RZEDBs.
In October 2010, Issuer A sold fixed rate QSCBs and variable
rate QSCBs payable from the same taxes using the same official
statement. The bonds are one bond issue for most purposes,
and Issuer A properly reported the issuance of the bonds using a
single Form 8038-TC with two debt service schedules. In
Lines 5 and 6. If the issuer is not the entity listed in Part I, enter
on line 5 the name and title and on line 6 the phone number of
the designated contact person for the entity named in Part I that
is to receive payment of the credit (such as an employee of the
trustee bank) that the IRS may call for more information. If the
issuer is the entity listed in Part I, enter on line 5 the name and
title and on line 6 the phone number of the designated contact
person (such as an officer or employee of the issuer, the legal
representative of the issuer, or the paid preparer) whom the IRS
may call for more information.
January 2022, Issuer A assigned report number 403 to the fixed
rate QSCBs and report number 404 to the variable rate QSCBs.
Report number 403 will be entered on Part II, line 10, on all future
Forms 8038-CP filed with respect to the fixed rate QSCBs.
Report number 404 will be entered on Part II, line 10, on all future
Forms 8038-CP filed with respect to the variable rate QSCBs.
In November 2010, Issuer A sold fixed rate QECBs, fixed rate
NCREBs, and variable rate NCREBs payable from the same
revenues using the same official statement. In January 2022,
Issuer A assigned report number 405 to the QECBs, report
number 406 to the fixed rate NCREBs, and report number 407 to
the variable rate NCREBs. Separate Forms 8038-CP will be filed
for the QECBs, fixed rate NCREBs, and variable rate NCREBs
using the respective report numbers on Part II, line 10.
Note. If the issuer on line 5 authorizes the IRS to call a person
other than an officer of the issuer for more information, by
signing this return the issuer's authorized representative
consents to the disclosure of the issuer's return information to
such person, as necessary to process this return.
Part II—Reporting Authority
Part II should be completed in full if the issuer authorized the IRS
to pay the requested refundable credit payment to another entity
on its behalf (for example, a trustee bank).
Lines 7 and 8. If the issuer's name is the same as line 1, enter
“SAME” and skip lines 8, 9, 11, 15, and 16. If the issuer's name
is not the same as line 1, enter the name, EIN, and complete
address of the issuer of the bond issue in Part II. For BABs and
RZEDBs, the issuer's name and EIN should be the name and
EIN listed on Form 8038-B, Part I, lines 1 and 2, filed for the bond
issue. For specified tax credit bonds, the issuer's name and EIN
should be the name and EIN listed on Form 8038-TC, Part I,
lines 1 and 2, filed for the bond issue.
Failure to assign a correct three-digit report number following
the assignment methodology in these instructions could delay
payment of the credit or otherwise affect normal processing.
Line 12. Enter the issue date of the bond issue. For BABs
(Direct Pay) and RZEDBs, the issue date should be the issue
date listed on Form 8038-B, Part I, line 7, filed for the bond issue.
For specified tax credit bonds, the issue date should be the issue
date listed on Form 8038-TC, Part I, line 7, filed for the bond
issue.
Line 10. Issuers are now required to assign permanent report
numbers for bonds currently eligible to receive credit payments
and consistently use the same report number when filing to
claim the credit for the bonds. Assign a separate report number
in the range 401–450 for each type of bond that is required to be
treated as a separate bond issue for purposes of Form 8038-CP
payment requests. (See General Instructions, What To File,
earlier.) Enter the three-digit report number (report number) that
the issuer assigned to the bonds on Part II, line 10, of the Form
8038-CP. Separately reported bonds for purposes of Form
8038-CP payment requests should be numbered consecutively
starting with 401. Once a report number is used for any bonds, it
must be used as the report number for all future filings of Form
8038-CP returns for those bonds. The report number may not be
used for any other Direct Pay bonds, even after bonds are
redeemed or are no longer outstanding.
Line 13. Enter the name of the bond issue. If the bond issue is
not named, enter “None.” For BABs (Direct Pay) and RZEDBs,
the name of the bond issue should be the name listed on Form
8038-B, Part I, line 8, filed for the bond issue. For specified tax
credit bonds, the name of the bond issue should be the name
listed on Form 8038-TC, Part I, line 8, filed for the bond issue.
For electronic returns, do not use brackets, dollar signs, or
commas in the name of the bond issue.
Line 14. Enter the Committee on Uniform Securities
Identification Procedures (CUSIP) number on the bond with the
latest maturity. For BABs and RZEDBs, the CUSIP number
should be the CUSIP number listed on Form 8038-B, Part I,
line 9, filed for the bond issue. For NCREBs, QECBs, QZABs,
and QSCBs, the CUSIP number should be the CUSIP number
listed on Form 8038-TC, Part I, line 9, filed for the bond issue.
Enter the nine-character CUSIP number without any spaces. If
the bond issue was not publicly offered and there is no assigned
CUSIP number, enter “None.” The CUSIP number used for
purposes of Form 8038-CP does not change. Continue to use
the CUSIP number originally reported on Form 8038-B or Form
8038-TC even if the bond maturity associated with the CUSIP
number is no longer outstanding. Use the CUSIP number
reported on Form 8038-B or Form 8038-TC even if you are
required by these instructions to treat bonds with different
interest rate structures as separate bonds and file separate
Forms 8038-CP (for example, for fixed and variable rate bonds of
the same bond issue).
Issuers must file separate Forms 8038-CP for each type of
bond and for fixed rate bonds and variable rate bonds.
If a single bond issue constitutes both BABs (Direct Pay) and
•
RZEDBs, file a separate Form 8038-CP for each type of bond
and assign a different report number for each. If a single bond
issue consists of more than one type of specified tax credit bond,
assign separate report numbers for NCREBs, QECBs, QZABs,
and QSCBs, and file a separate Form 8038-CP for each type of
bond.
If a single bond issue contains both fixed rate bonds and
•
variable rate bonds, assign separate report numbers for each
interest rate structure and file a separate Form 8038-CP for each
interest rate structure.
Example. Issuer A elected to receive a refundable credit
under former section 6431 for its bonds.
Leaving line 14 blank, or entering something other than a
nine-character CUSIP number without spaces or “None,”
In February 2010, Issuer A sold BABs and RZEDBs payable
from the same revenues using the same official statement.
Although the bonds are one bond issue for most purposes,
Issuer A properly reported the issuance of the bonds using
separate Forms 8038-B for the BABs and the RZEDBs. In
January 2022, Issuer A assigned report number 401 to the BABs
and report number 402 to the RZEDBs. Report number 401 will

could result in a delay in the credit payment or otherwise
affect normal processing.
Example. In May 2010, Issuer B sold fixed rate BABs with a
final maturity date of May 1, 2040, and variable rate BABs with a
final maturity date of May 1, 2025, payable from the same taxes
4
using the same official statement. Issuer B elected to receive a
refundable credit under former section 6431 for its bonds and
filed a single Form 8038-B for the bonds. The CUSIP number for
the fixed rate bonds maturing on May 1, 2040, was reported on
Form 8038-B, Part I, line 9.
In January 2022, Issuer B files separate Forms 8038-CP for
the fixed rate BABs and the variable rate BABs and uses the
CUSIP number for the fixed rate bonds maturing on May 1, 2040,
on the Form 8038-CP filed for the fixed rate BABs and on the
Form 8038-CP filed for the variable rate BABs.
On November 1, 2022, Issuer B retires the fixed rate BABs. In
January 2023, Issuer B files a Form 8038-CP with respect to the
variable rate BABs. Issuer B must continue to use the CUSIP
number originally reported on Form 8038-B (CUSIP number for
fixed rate bonds with a maturity date of May 1, 2040) even
though the bonds corresponding to the CUSIP number are no
longer outstanding.
interest payment dates for the bonds and checks the box for
“Variable rate bond” on line 17a.
Line 17b. For BABs and RZEDBs, enter the total issue price for
the bond listed on Form 8038-B, Part III, line 3, filed for the bond
issue. For specified tax credit bonds, enter the total issue price
for the bond listed on Form 8038-TC, Part III, line 1, filed for the
bond issue. The issue price used for purposes of Form 8038-CP
doesn’t change. Continue to use the issue price originally
reported on Form 8038-B or Form 8038-TC even if some of the
bonds are no longer outstanding. Use the issue price reported
on Form 8038-B or Form 8038-TC even if you are required by
these instructions to file separate Forms 8038-CP for different
interest rate structures (for example, for fixed and variable rate
bonds of the same bond issue).
Example. In September 2010, Issuer C sold at par
$15,000,000 of fixed rate BABs with a final maturity date of
September 1, 2030, and $5,000,000 of variable rate BABs with a
final maturity date of September 1, 2025, payable from the same
taxes using the same official statement. Issuer C elected to
receive a refundable credit under former section 6431 for the
bonds and filed a single Form 8038-B for the bonds. The issue
price for the bonds was reported on Form 8038-B, Part III, line 1,
as $20,000,000.
Lines 15 and 16. If the issuer isn’t the entity listed in Part I,
enter the name, title, and phone number of the officer of the
issuer or other person whom the IRS may call for more
information. If the issuer is the entity listed in Part I, leave lines 15
and 16 blank.
In January 2022, Issuer C files separate Forms 8038-CP for
the fixed rate BABs and the variable rate BABs but uses the total
issue price of $20,000,000 on the Form 8038-CP filed for the
fixed rate BABs and on the Form 8038-CP filed for the variable
rate BABs.
Note. If the issuer authorizes, on line 15, the IRS to contact a
person other than an officer of the issuer for more information, by
signing this form the issuer's authorized representative consents
to the disclosure of the issuer's return information to such
person, as necessary to process this return.
On March 1, 2022, Issuer C retires the fixed rate BABs. In
January 2024, Issuer C files a Form 8038-CP with respect to the
variable rate BABs. Issuer C must continue to use the issue price
originally reported on Form 8038-B ($20,000,000) even though
only $5,000,000 of variable rate BABs is still outstanding.
Line 17a. Check the box that applies to the bonds of the issue
for which this return is submitted. Only one box should be
checked because payment requests for variable rate bonds and
fixed rate bonds are required to be filed on separate returns.
The following are additional instructions with respect to
variable rate bonds. Always file a separate Form 8038-CP for
variable rate bonds. However, when the issuer knows the interest
payment amount at least 45 days prior to the interest payment
date, Form 8038-CP may be filed within the same timelines as
fixed rate bonds (45 days before the relevant interest payment
date but no earlier than 90 days before the relevant interest
payment date). See General Instructions, What To File, earlier.
When the issuer files Form 8038-CP for variable rate bonds
using the timelines for fixed rate bonds, the box on line 17a for
fixed rate bond is checked.
Example. In October 2010, Issuer F issued fixed rate BABs
and variable rate BABs payable from the same taxes using the
same official statement. Interest on the fixed rate bonds is paid
on January 1 and July 1 of each year at a fixed rate of 6%.
Interest on the variable rate bonds is paid on January 1 and July
1 of each year at a rate based upon a set formula and the
interest rate is reset every 5 years pursuant to the formula. Issuer
F elected to receive a refundable credit under former section
6431 for the bonds and filed a single Form 8038-B for the bonds.
Line 17c. Identify the type of bonds by entering the
corresponding three-digit code number as follows.
102—New clean renewable energy bonds.
103—Qualified energy conservation bonds.
104—Qualified zone academy bonds.
105—Qualified school construction bonds.
109—Build America bonds.

Part III—Payment of Credit
Line 18. Enter the interest payment date to which the requested
refundable credit payment relates. An interest payment date is
the date on which interest is payable by the issuer to the holders
of the bonds. This may include a date on which bonds are retired
earlier than maturity if interest is to be paid on that date. (For
variable rate bonds with the amount of interest payable not
known at least 45 days before the interest payment date, enter
the last interest payment date applicable to the quarterly period
to which this return relates.) For certain variable rate bonds, the
remarketing date or the date the interest rate is reset may not be
the same date the interest is paid.
On April 10, 2024, Issuer F files a separate Form 8038-CP for
the July 1, 2024, interest payment date for the fixed rate BABs
and checks the box for “Fixed rate bond” on line 17a. On April
10, 2024, Issuer F knows the interest payment amount for the
July 1, 2024, interest payment date for the variable rate BABs
and files a separate Form 8038-CP and checks the box for
“Fixed rate bond”on line 17a.
Example. In November 2010, Issuer G issued variable rate
BABs. Interest on the bonds is paid on the first day of each
month at an interest rate based upon a set formula and the
interest rate is reset every month pursuant to the formula. Issuer
F elected to receive a refundable credit under former section
6431 for the bonds and filed a single Form 8038-B for the bonds.
Line 19a. Enter the amount of interest payable to the holders of
the bonds on the interest payment date. The amount entered on
line 19a can only relate to the interest payable on a single bond
issue and the amount of interest allocable to a single type of
bond (BAB, RZEDB, or a single type of specified tax credit bond)
and similar interest rate structure (fixed or variable rate). (See
General Instructions, What To File, earlier.)
On January 10, 2024, Issuer G files a Form 8038-CP for the
October 1, 2023, the November 1, 2023, and December 1, 2023,

Note. You can only have one entry on line 20 (a through f).
Note. If an amount of the credit payment requested is required
to be offset against other outstanding taxes or obligations, then
the credit payment to be received could be less than the amount
on line 22. For more information, see Notices 2009-26 and
2010-35.
Line 20a. For BABs, enter the amount of the requested credit
payment relating to the interest payable on the interest payment
date. The amount reported on line 20a must equal 35% (0.35) of
the amount reported on line 19a.
Line 20b. For RZEDBs, enter the amount of the requested
credit payment relating to the interest payable on the interest
payment date. The amount reported on line 20b must equal 45%
(0.45) of the amount reported on line 19a.
Line 23a. Check “Yes” or “No.” Check “Yes” if the amount shown
on line 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, 20e, or 20f does not equal the
amount of the credit payment shown on the debt service
schedule attached to the information return for the bonds filed

previously reported to the IRS. For variable rate bonds, check
“Yes” if there is a change in interest payment dates, the total
principal amount of qualified bonds expected to be outstanding
on payment dates, or the method for determining interest on the
bonds. Situations where you must check “Yes” for fixed and
variable rate bonds include (a) early retirement or defeasance of
bonds, (b) treating a portion of the bonds as nonqualified under
Rev. Proc. 2018-26, (c) reissuance of bonds because of a
significant modification under Regulations section 1.1001-3 or
other guidance, or (d) the debt service schedule has otherwise
changed or been altered so that the debt service schedule you
most recently filed with the IRS is no longer accurate.
Note. Issuers issuing QZABs pursuant to an allocation of 2011
or later national QZAB limitation (volume cap) can’t make a valid
election to issue such bonds as specified tax credit bonds and
may not claim a refundable credit under former section 6431 by
filing Form 8038-CP.

Lines 21a and 21b. Either line 21a or line 21b is available to
correct your prior mistakes on prior filings of Form 8038-CP for

If a prior credit payment amount was received that was less
•
than the correct amount, then enter the amount on line 21a that
relates to the corresponding increase to this payment request.
Line 23b. If you checked “Yes” on line 23a, enter one applicable
three-digit explanation code number and provide the revised
debt service schedule. If a three-digit explanation code number
is not entered, the credit payment could be delayed or normal
processing could otherwise be affected. Where indicated,
provide the applicable dates in MM/DD/YYYY format and the
applicable amounts.
If a prior credit payment amount was received that exceeded
•
the correct amount for that payment, then enter the amount on
line 21b that relates to the corresponding decrease to this
payment request.
If there are both increase and decrease adjustments related to
•
multiple prior payments, then net the amounts and include the
corresponding amount on either line 21a (for net increases) or
21b (for net decreases), as appropriate.
Note. If the changes result from the issuer’s nonqualified use of
bond proceeds and taking a remedial action under section 6 of
Rev. Proc. 2018-26, the issuer must enter the three-digit
explanation code 235 on the Form 8038-CP filed for the first
interest payment date after the nonqualified use of the bond
proceeds occurs. The issuer must also (a) provide the date of
the nonqualified use and the amount of nonqualified use, and (b)
attach a revised debt service schedule reflecting the exclusion of
amounts allocable to the nonqualified bonds beginning with the
date of the nonqualified use.
If any amount is entered on either line 21a or 21b, complete

section 6431(f) on such date, and the earliest date that the
qualified bonds can be called.
9. For variable rate bonds, a revised debt service schedule
through final maturity that provides a list of each interest
payment date, the total principal amount of qualified bonds
expected to be outstanding on such date, and a description of
how interest on the qualified bonds is figured. However, if the
issuer knows the interest amount for a certain period, for that
period the issuer should provide the refundable credit payment
expected to be requested from the IRS as allowed under former
section 6431(f).
Reminder: Each type of bond requires a distinct report
number and each interest rate structure requires a distinct report
number. See the instructions for line 10, earlier.

Signature and Consent
Instructions for Schedule A
An officer of the issuer with authority to bind the issuer must sign
Form 8038-CP and any applicable certification. If the entity listed
in Part I is not the issuer, the authority of the person signing this
return must include the authority to bind the issuer, the authority
to request that the IRS send the refundable credit payment to the
entity identified in Part I, and the authority to consent to the
disclosure of return information necessary to process the
refundable credit payment to the designated contact person(s)
listed in Parts I and II on Form 8038-CP, as applicable. Also print
the name and title of the person signing Form 8038-CP.
When Is Schedule A Required?
Schedule A is used to compute the amount of the refundable
credit payment allowed under former section 6431(f) and must
be completed for all specified tax credit bonds (NCREBs,
QECBs, QZABs, and QSCBs). Computation of the credit
payment is done on a bond-by-bond basis (usually, this means a
separate computation for each maturity in a bond issue, but
bonds with the same maturity but different terms such as interest
rate are also considered separate bonds). Schedule A
eliminates the need for issuers of NCREBs and QECBs to file
separate Forms 8038-CP for each maturity of bonds on each
interest payment date.
Note. If the issuer designates on line 5 of Part I or line 15 of Part
II a person other than an officer of the issuer as a contact person
for the IRS to call for more information, by signing this return the
issuer's authorized representative consents to the disclosure of
the issuer's return information to such person, as necessary to
process the refundable credit payment.
For NCREBs and QECBs, the amount of the refundable credit
payment is the lesser of 100% of the amount of interest payable
under the bond on such interest payment date or 70% (0.70) of
the amount of interest which would have been payable under
such bond on such date if such interest were determined at the
applicable credit rate determined under section 54A(b)(3).
Paid Preparer
For QZABs and QSCBs, the amount of the refundable credit
payment is the lesser of 100% of the amount of interest payable
under the bond on such interest payment date or 100% of the
amount of interest which would have been payable under such
bond on such date if such interest were determined at the
applicable tax credit bond rate determined under section 54A(b)
(3).
If an authorized officer of the issuer filled in this return, the paid
preparer block should remain blank. Anyone who prepares the
return but does not charge the issuer should not sign the return.
Certain others who prepare the return should not sign. For
example, a regular, full-time employee of the organization, such
as a clerk, secretary, etc., should not sign.
Specific Instructions
Generally, anyone who is paid to prepare a return must sign it
and fill in the other blanks in the Paid Preparer Use Only area of
the return. A paid preparer can’t use a social security number in
the preparer tax identification number (PTIN) box. The paid
preparer must use a PTIN. If the paid preparer is self-employed,
the preparer should enter his or her address in the box.

Example for QZABs and QSCBs. On November 9, 2010,
Issuer D sold $30,000,000 of fixed rate QSCBs, and elected to
receive a refundable credit under former section 6431. The
interest on the QSCBs is payable semiannually on January 15
and July 15 of each year. The interest rate on $10,000,000 of
QSCBs maturing on January 15, 2025, is 5.25%. The interest
rate on $10,000,000 of QSCBs maturing on January 15, 2026, is
5.30%. The interest rate on $10,000,000 of QSCBs maturing on
January 15, 2027, is 5.35%. The applicable credit rate for
qualified tax credit bonds sold on November 9, 2010, is 5.30%.
The amount of interest payable on the QSCBs on January 15,
2024, and the amount of interest that would be payable on the
QSCBs on that date using the applicable credit rate is shown in
the following tables.
Line 1. Total the amounts in column (e) on page 1 of
