Future Developments
For the latest information about
developments related to Form 6252 and
its instructions, such as legislation
enacted after they were published, go to
www.irs.gov/Form6252.
What’s New
Installment sale reporting. In 2019 and
later, if you have an outstanding
installment sale balance after the initial
year, complete lines 1 through 4, Part I,
and Part II for each year of the installment
agreement. If you sold property to a
related party during the year, also
complete Part III.
Purpose of Form
Use Form 6252 to report income from an
installment sale on the installment
method. Generally, an installment sale is a
disposition of property where at least one
payment is received after the end of the
tax year in which the disposition occurs.
Ordinarily, an installment sale doesn’t
include a disposition of personal property
by a person who regularly sells or
otherwise disposes of personal property
of the same type, or a disposition of real
property which is held by the taxpayer for
sale to customers in the ordinary course
of the taxpayer’s trade or business.
However, gain on some dispositions by
dealers in real property or farmers who
dispose of any property used or produced
in the trade or business of farming may be
reported on the installment method.
Don’t file Form 6252 for sales that don’t
result in a gain, even if you will receive a
payment in a tax year after the year of
sale. Instead, report the entire sale on
Form 4797, Sales of Business Property,
Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions
of Capital Assets, or the Schedule D for
your tax return, whichever applies.
Don’t file Form 6252 to report sales
during the tax year of stock or securities
traded on an established securities
market. Instead, treat all payments as
received during the year of sale.
Don’t file Form 6252 if you elect not to
report the sale on the installment method.
To elect out, report the full amount of the
gain on a timely filed return (including
extensions) on Form 4797, Form 8949, or
the Schedule D for your tax return,
whichever applies. If you filed your
original return on time without making the
election, you can make the election on an
amended return filed no later than 6
months after the due date of your tax
return, excluding extensions. Write “Filed
pursuant to section 301.9100-2” at the
top of the amended return.
Which Parts To Complete
For All Years
Complete lines 1 through 4, Part I, and
Part II. If you sold property to a related
party during the year, also complete Part
III. Complete Form 6252 for each year of
the installment agreement, including the
year of final payment, even if a payment
wasn’t received during the year.
If you sold a marketable security to a
related party after May 14, 1980, and
before 1987, complete Form 6252 for
each year of the installment agreement,
even if you didn’t receive a payment.
Complete lines 1 through 4. Complete
Part III unless you received the final
payment during the tax year.
After 1986, the installment method isn’t
available for the sale of marketable
securities.
Note: If you sold property other than a
marketable security to a related party
after May 14, 1980, complete Form 6252
for the year of sale and for 2 years after
the year of sale, even if you didn’t receive
a payment. Complete lines 1 through 4.
Complete Part II for any year during this
2-year period in which you receive a
payment from the sale. Complete Part III
for the 2 years after the year of sale
unless you received the final payment
during the tax year.
Special Rules
Interest
If any part of an installment payment you
received is for interest or original issue
discount, report that income on the
appropriate form or schedule. Don’t
report interest received, carrying charges
received, or unstated interest on Form
6252. See Pub. 537, Installment Sales, for
details on unstated interest.
Installment Sales to Related Party
A special rule applies to a first disposition
(sale or exchange) of property under the
installment method to a related party who
then makes a second disposition (sale,
exchange, gift, or cancellation of
installment note) before making all
payments on the first disposition. For this
purpose, a related party includes your
spouse, child, grandchild, parent, brother,
sister; or a related corporation, S
corporation, partnership, estate, or trust.
See section 453(f)(1) for more details.
Under this rule, treat part or all of the
amount the related party realized (or the
fair market value (FMV) if the disposed
property isn’t sold or exchanged) from the
second disposition as if you received it
from the first disposition at the time of the
second disposition. Figure the gain, if any,
on lines 30 through 37. This rule doesn’t
apply if any of the conditions listed on line
29 are met.
Sale of Depreciable Property to
Related Person
Generally, if you sell depreciable property
to a related person (as defined in section
453(g)(3)), you can’t report the sale using
the installment method. For this purpose,
depreciable property is any property that
(in the hands of the person or entity to
whom you transfer it) is subject to the
allowance for depreciation. However, you
can use the installment method if you can
show to the satisfaction of the IRS that
avoidance of federal income taxes wasn’t
one of the principal purposes of the sale
(for example, no significant tax deferral
benefits will result from the sale). If the
installment method doesn’t apply, report
the sale on Form 4797, Form 8949, or
Schedule D, whichever applies. Treat all
payments you will receive as if they were
received in the year of sale. Use FMV for
any payment that is contingent as to
amount. If the FMV can’t be readily
determined, basis is recovered ratably.
Pledge Rule
For certain dispositions under the
installment method, if an installment
obligation is pledged as security on a debt,
the net proceeds of the secured debt are
treated as payment on the installment
obligation. However, the amount treated as
payment can’t be more than the excess of
the total installment contract price over
any payments received under the contract
before the secured debt was obtained.
An installment obligation is pledged as
security on a debt to the extent that
payment of principal and interest on the
debt is directly secured by an interest in
the installment obligation. For sales after
December 16, 1999, payment on a debt is
treated as directly secured by an interest in
an installment obligation to the extent an
arrangement allows you to satisfy all or part
of the debt with the installment obligation.
The pledge rule applies to any
installment sale after 1988 with a sales
price of over $150,000 except:
• Personal use property disposed of by an
individual,
• Farm property, and
• Timeshares and residential lots.
However, the pledge rule doesn’t apply
to pledges made after December 17, 1987,
if the debt is incurred to refinance the
principal amount of a debt that was
outstanding on December 17, 1987, and
was secured by nondealer installment
obligations on that date and at all times
after that date until the refinancing. This
exception doesn’t apply to the extent that
the principal amount of the debt resulting
from the refinancing exceeds the principal
amount of the refinanced debt immediately
before the refinancing. Also, the pledge rule
doesn’t affect refinancing due to the calling
of a debt by the creditor if the debt is then
refinanced by a person other than this
creditor or someone related to the creditor.
Form 6252 (2019)

Interest on Deferred Tax
Generally, you must pay interest on the
deferred tax related to any obligation that
arises during a tax year from the disposition
of property under the installment method if:
• The property had a sales price over
$150,000; and
• The aggregate balance of all nondealer
installment obligations arising during, and
outstanding at the close of, the tax year is
more than $5 million.
You must pay interest in subsequent
years if installment obligations that
originally required interest to be paid are
still outstanding at the close of a tax year.
The interest rules don’t apply to
dispositions of:
• Farm property,
• Personal use property by an individual,
• Real property before 1988, or
• Personal property before 1989.
See section 453(l) for more information
on the sale of timeshares and residential
lots under the installment method.
How to report the interest. The interest
isn’t figured on Form 6252. See Pub. 537
for details and an example on how to
report the interest under section 453A.
Capital Gains
If you have a capital gain, you can invest
that gain into a Qualified Opportunity Fund
(QO Fund) and elect to defer part or all of
the gain that you would otherwise include
in income. The gain is deferred until you sell
or exchange the investment or December
31, 2026, whichever is earlier. You may also
be able to permanently exclude gain from
the sale or exchange of an investment in a
QO Fund if the investment is held for at
least 10 years. For information about what
types of gains entitle you to elect these
special rules, see the Instructions for
Schedule D. Report the eligible gain on the
form and in the manner otherwise
instructed. See the Form 8949 instructions
on how to report your election to defer
eligible gains invested in a QO Fund.
Additional Information
See Pub. 537 for additional information,
including details about reductions in selling
price, the single sale of several assets,
like-kind exchanges, dispositions of
installment obligations, and repossessions.

Line 15
If the property described on line 1 was
your main home, you may be able to
exclude part or all of your gain. See Pub.
523, Selling Your Home, for details.
Part II—Installment Sale
Income
Line 19
Enter the gross profit percentage
determined for the year of sale even if you
didn’t file Form 6252 for that year. Enter it
as a decimal rounded to at least 4 digits,
and include all zeros (for example,
25% = 0.2500, 35.25% = 0.3525, or
100% = 1.0000).
Line 21
Enter all money and the FMV of any
property or services you received in 2019.
Include as payments any amount withheld
to pay off a mortgage or other debt or to
pay broker and legal fees. Generally, don’t
include as a payment the buyer’s note, a
mortgage, or other debt assumed by the
buyer. However, a note or other debt that
is payable on demand or readily tradable
in an established securities market is
considered a payment. For sales occurring
before October 22, 2004, a note or other
debt is considered a payment only if it was
issued by a corporation or governmental
entity. If you didn’t receive any payments
in 2019, enter zero. If in prior years an
amount was entered on the equivalent of
line 34 of the 2019 form, don’t include it
on this line. Instead, enter it on line 23.
See Pledge Rule, earlier, for details about
proceeds of debt secured by installment
obligations that must be treated as
payments on installment obligations.
Line 23
Enter all money and the FMV of property
or services you received before 2019 from
the sale. Include allocable installment
income and any other deemed payments
from prior years.
Deemed payments include amounts
deemed received because of:
• A second disposition by a related party,
or
• The pledge rule of section 453A(d).
Line 25
Enter here and on Form 4797, line 15, any
ordinary income recapture on section
1252, 1254, or 1255 property for the year
of sale or all remaining recapture from a
prior year sale. Don’t enter ordinary
income from a section 179 expense
deduction. If this is the year of sale,
complete Form 4797, Part III. The amount
from line 27c, 28b, or 29b of Form 4797 is
the ordinary income recapture. Don’t
enter any gain for this property on line 31
or 32 of Form 4797. If you used Form
4797 only to figure the recapture on line
25 or 36 of Form 6252, enter “N/A” on
lines 31 and 32 of Form 4797.
Also report on this line any ordinary
income recapture remaining from prior
years on section 1245 or 1250 property
sold before June 7, 1984.
Don’t enter on line 25 more than the
amount shown on line 24. Any excess
must be reported in future years on Form
6252 up to the taxable part of the
installment sale until all of the recapture
has been reported.
Line 26
For trade or business property held more
than 1 year, enter this amount on Form
4797, line 4. If the property was held 1
year or less or you have an ordinary gain
from the sale of a noncapital asset (even if
the holding period is more than 1 year),
enter this amount on Form 4797, line 10,
and write “From Form 6252.” If the
property was section 1250 property
(generally, real property that you
depreciated) held more than 1 year, figure
the total amount of unrecaptured section
1250 gain included on line 26 using the
Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain
Worksheet in the Instructions for
Schedule D (Form 1040 or 1040-SR).
For capital assets, enter this amount on
Schedule D as a short- or long-term gain
on the lines identified as from Form 6252.
Part III—Related Party
Installment Sale Income
Line 29
If one of the conditions is met, check the
appropriate box and skip lines 30 through
37. If you checked box 29e, attach an
explanation. Generally, the nontax
avoidance exception will apply to the
second disposition if:
• The disposition was involuntary (for
example, a creditor of the related party
foreclosed on the property or the related
party declared bankruptcy), or
• The disposition was an installment sale
under which the terms of payment were
substantially equal to or longer than those
for the first sale. However, the resale
terms must not permit significant deferral
of recognition of gain from the first sale
(for example, amounts from the resale are
being collected sooner).
Line 30
If the related party sold all or part of the
property from the original sale in 2019,
enter the amount realized from the part
resold. If part was sold in an earlier year
and part was sold this year, enter the
cumulative amount realized from the
resale.
Amount realized. The amount realized
from a sale or exchange is the total of all
money received plus the FMV of all
property or services received. The amount
realized also includes any liabilities that
were assumed by the buyer and any
liabilities to which the property transferred
is subject, such as real estate taxes or a
mortgage. For details, see Pub. 544,
Sales and Other Dispositions of Assets.
Line 33
If you completed Part II, enter the sum of
lines 22 and 23. Otherwise, enter all
money and the FMV of property you
received before 2019 from the sale.
Include allocable installment income and
any other deemed payments from prior
years. Don’t include interest, whether
stated or unstated.
Line 36
See the instructions for line 25. Don’t enter
on line 36 more than the amount shown on
line 35. Any excess must be reported in
future years on Form 6252 up to the
taxable part of the installment sale until all
of the recapture has been reported.
Line 37
See the instructions for line 26.
