Schedule M (Form 5471) is used by U.S. shareholders of a Controlled Foreign Corporation (CFC) to report transactions between the CFC and its shareholders or related parties. All amounts must be reported in U.S. dollars.
Schedule M captures sales, dividends, interest, royalties, and other payments. It helps the IRS track cross‑border financial activity and ensure proper tax treatment.

Schedule M itself is not filed separately; it is attached to the complete Form 5471 package, which is submitted with your corporate tax return (e.g., Form 1120‑F).
You must file a separate Schedule M for each Controlled Foreign Corporation you own or control during the tax year.
Common mistakes include using the wrong exchange rate, omitting zero‑value transactions, and placing amounts in the wrong columns (b‑f).
Schedule M is due when the overall Form 5471 is due, generally by the filing deadline of the U.S. taxpayer’s income tax return, including extensions.
