### Streamline Your QSBS Tax Elections with Paperform

Section 1202 of the Internal Revenue Code offers significant tax benefits for investors in qualified small business stock (QSBS), allowing eligible shareholders to exclude up to 100% of capital gains from federal taxation. However, claiming these benefits requires meticulous documentation of holding periods, original issuance verification, and compliance with complex IRS requirements.

This **Section 1202 Qualified Small Business Stock Election Form** template helps investors, financial advisors, tax professionals, and investment firms properly document QSBS elections and rollover opportunities. Whether you're managing individual portfolios, advising high-net-worth clients, or administering fund investments, this form captures all the essential information needed to support your Section 1202 claims.

#### Built for Investment Professionals and Tax Compliance

This template is specifically designed for financial advisors, CPAs, wealth managers, venture capital firms, and individual investors who need to track QSBS eligibility and document gain exclusions.
