NOTES

1. An aider and abettor may be jointly charged with the principal under 18 U.S.C., § 2. If this is done, the language "and did willfully aid, abet, assist, and cause to be so made and subscribed" should be inserted after the word "subscribe" and appropriate reference made to 18 U.S.C. (§ 2, as well as to 26 U.S.C.) § 7206(1).

2. Where appropriate, substitute correct tax return, e.g., U.S. Corporation Income Tax Return.

3. If fiscal year is involved, substitute "fiscal year ended __________, 19___".

4. If venue is to be placed in the district of filing, modify this form in accordance with language at Forms - 63.
