Summary

A business operating in a qualified opportunity zone must give a written statement to the qualified opportunity fund connected to it, following IRS rules on timing, form, and content. The statement helps the fund meet its own reporting requirements. The duty applies when the business is a trade or business of the fund, or when the fund holds the business's stock or a partnership interest in it. The same requirement applies to qualified rural opportunity zone businesses and their funds.
