When filing IRS form 709 (Gifts) do you return all of the schedules, or just the actual form?

File the entire form including schedules. You have to mail it. TurboTax does not support that form.

Thank you all for your answers. One more follow-up question please: Schedule A for this form only has room for 4 gift declarations. I assume that if I have more than 4 that I need to attach an extra Schedule A. Is that correct?

Attach an additional statement and note that the statement is attached on the last line of Schedule A (e.g., see additional statement).

Again, many thanks for clearing this all up. I've done my own taxes for years (both with and without TurboTax) and I have to say that Form 709 and its instructions are the most confusing and poorly-crafted pieces of work I've ever encountered. I'm very happy to have the resources of this community available.
