Fax Form 8806 — acquisition of control or capital change
Form 8806 is one of the few fax-only IRS filings: the instructions direct it to 844-249-6232, with no mail alternative listed. The reporting corporation files it after an acquisition of control or a substantial change in capital structure.
If the transaction involved a section 338 election, the purchaser's Form 8023 is a separate fax filing — see its page.
