Abstract: Form 8886: Regulations section 1.6011-4 provides that certain taxpayers must disclose their direct or indirect participation in reportable transactions when they file their Federal income tax return.

CAP is a real-time review of completed business transactions during the CAP year with the goal of providing certainty of the tax return within 90 days of the filing. Taxpayers in CAP are required to be cooperative and transparent and report all material issues and items related to completed business transactions to the review team.
