1040 Line 9b (a new line this year). There is only one line.

My best guess from their press release:

Total Dist: $2.80
Ord. Div: .308 (None qualified)
Cap. Gain Dist. on or after 5/6/03: $1.568
Cap. gain Dist. pre 5/6/03: .42 (all qual. 5 year gain)
Sec. 1250 gain: .504

Default REIT "15% Rate Gain"?

I owned shares in the REIT Avalon Bay (AVB) for most of this
past year. On Jan. 8, 2004, AVB announced its "2003 dividend
income tax treatment." Of the dividends AVB paid this past
year, 56% fall into the category of "15% rate gain," and 15%
fall into the category of "20% rate gain."

I gather the 15% and 20% refer to tax rates which some
shareholders may be able to take advantage of, depending on
their tax bracket. Correct?

I can't easily find anything in Form 1040 and Schedule D and
their instructions that refer to these rate gains. Can
anyone tell me where these gains go and on which tax forms?
