Definitions  
Who Must File  
The qualified heir must file Form 706-A  
if there was any taxable event (see  
Taxable Events, later) with respect to  
the specially valued property even if no  
tax is ultimately due. Further, the  
qualified heir must file Form 706-A if  
there was any involuntary conversion or  
exchange of the specially valued  
property even if the conversion or  
exchange is nontaxable.  
Specially valued property. The term  
“specially valued property” means farm  
or closely held business property that  
the executor elected to value at actual  
use rather than fair market value (FMV)  
(defined on page 3). The executor  
makes the election on Form 706, United  
States Estate (and Generation-Skipping  
Transfer) Tax Return, filed for the  
decedent. Specially valued property  
refers to the qualified real property  
described in section 2032A and

Cessation of qualified use. The  
specially valued real property must be  
used as a farm for farming purposes, or  
used in a trade or business other than  
the trade or business of farming. For  
more details, see the Instructions for  
Form 706.  
The qualified use ceases if the  
specially valued real property is not  
used for the qualified use described  
earlier. Use of the property as a farm or  
other business is also considered to  
cease if, during any 8-year period that  
ends after the decedent's death, there  
were periods totaling more than 3 years  
during which:  
1. Neither the decedent nor any  
member of the decedent's family  
materially participated in the operation  
of the farm or other business (while the  
decedent held the property), and  
Qualified heir. The term “qualified  
heir” means, for any property, a member  
of the decedent's family who acquired  
the property (or to whom the property  
passes) from the decedent. If a qualified  
heir disposes of any interest in qualified  
real property to any member of his or  
her family, that member shall thereafter  
be treated as the qualified heir for the  
interest.  
If qualified heirs receive successive  
interests in specially valued property  
(for example, a life estate and  
remainder interests), the material  
participation requirement does not end  
for any part of the property until the later  
of the expiration of the recapture period  
or the death of the last qualified heir.  
Taxable Events  
In determining whether the required  
participation has occurred, disregard  
brief periods (30 days or less) during  
which there was no material

event by disposing of any interest in the

participation. But you may disregard  
these periods only if they were both  
preceded and followed by substantial  
periods (more than 120 days) in which  
there was uninterrupted material  
participation.  
The disposition or cessation of  
qualified use was before the death of  
the qualified heir, and  
The disposition or cessation was  
within 10 years after the decedent's  
death. (But see Two-Year Grace  
Required activities for material par-  
ticipation. See the Instructions for  
Form 706.  
Only one additional estate tax will be  
imposed with respect to any one part of  
specially valued property. For example,  
if additional estate tax is imposed for  
early cessation of a qualified use, a  
second additional estate tax will not be  
imposed for a subsequent early  
Basis  
See section 1014(a) for the basis of  
property acquired from a decedent.  
2. Neither the qualified heir nor any  
member of the qualified heir's family  
materially participated in the operation  
of the farm or other business (while the  
heir held the property).  
Election to increase basis. A  
qualified heir may elect to increase the  
basis of specially valued property when  
a taxable event (as defined earlier)  
occurs. If this election is made, the  
basis of the property shall increase to  
the excess of the FMV amount on the  
decedent's date of death (or alternate  
valuation date, if applicable) over the  
value amount determined under section  
2032A. Once the election is made, it is  
irrevocable.  
disposition of the same part of the  
specially valued property.  
If the decedent was retired or  
disabled before death, there are special  
rules for applying the 8-year period to  
paragraph (1) above. See section  
2032A(b)(4) and the Instructions for  
Form 706.  
Disposition to family member. A  
disposition of an interest in property to a  
family member of the qualified heir is a  
taxable event that must be reported on  
Form 706-A. If the transferee enters into  
an agreement to be personally liable for  
any additional tax under section  
Member of family. The term “member  
of the family” includes only:  
2032A(c), the disposition is nontaxable  
and you should enter it on Schedule C.  
If the family member does not enter  
into the agreement, the disposition is  
taxable and you should enter it on  
Schedule A.  
Disposition of timber. If the executor  
made a qualified woodlands election  
(section 2032A(e)(13)(A)), the  
disposition or severing of timber from  
the woodland is a disposition of a  
portion of the interest in the property.  
The disposition of a right to sever is  
treated as a disposition of the standing  
timber.

Column E. Report in column E the  
special-use value at the date of the  
decedent's death (or alternate valuation  
date) of the specially valued property  
that passed from the decedent to the  
qualified heir who disposed of the  
property or discontinued the qualified  
use. Use the same special-use value  
that the executor reported on the Form  
706 filed for the decedent's estate. If the  
IRS has completed the audit of the  
estate tax return, use the agreed value  
rather than the reported value. If the  
qualified heir owned only a part of the  
specially valued property, report in  
column E the pro rata share of the  
special-use value allocable to the part  
owned by the qualified heir.  
For the 2 years immediately following  
the date of the decedent's death, the  
failure by the qualified heir to begin  
using the property in a qualified use will  
not be considered a cessation of  
qualified use and therefore will not  
trigger the additional estate tax. The  
date on which the qualified heir begins  
to use the property in a qualified use is  
the commencement date.

Involuntary conversions of qualified real

1033) and exchanges of qualified real  
property (under the rules of section  
1031) are treated similarly when figuring  
the additional estate tax on Form 706-A.  
How To Complete Form

Column D. If the qualified heir  
disposed of the specially valued  
property in an arm's length transaction,  
report in column D the amount realized.  
You may file Form 706-A for only one  
qualified heir. If a disposition, cessation,  
involuntary conversion, or exchange  
involves more than one qualified heir,  
each heir must file a separate Form  
706-A.  
Arm's length transaction. An arm's  
length transaction is a transaction where  
there is no bargain or gift element for

exchanges occurring after 1981.

Amount realized. The amount  
realized is the sum of the money  
received plus the FMV of property (other  
than money) received. For the real  
property taxes that must be taken into  
account, see section 1001(b).  
If the qualified heir owned only a part  
of the specially valued property, report  
in column D the pro rata share of the  
amount realized that is allocable to the  
part owned by the qualified heir.  
If the specially valued property is  
disposed of by the qualified heir in other  
than an arm's length transaction, or if  
the qualified use is discontinued by the  
qualified heir, report in column D the  
FMV of the specially valued property as  
of the date of disposition or cessation of  
qualified use.
