Reporting And Paying Tax On Partnership Withholding

Reporting And Paying Tax On Partnership Withholding

Three forms are required for reporting and paying over tax withheld on effectively connected income allocable to foreign partners.

Form 8804

Form 8804, Annual Return for Partnership Withholding Tax (Section 1446).

The withholding tax liability of the partnership for its tax year is reported on Form 8804. Form 8804 is also a transmittal form for Forms 8805. Any additional withholding tax owed for the partnership’s tax year is paid (in U. S. currency) with Form 8804. A Form 8805 for each foreign partner must be attached to Form 8804, whether or not any withholding tax was paid.

File Form 8804 by the 15th day of the 3rd month (4th Month for partnership tax years beginning before January 1, 2016) after the close of the partnership’s tax year. However, a partnership made up of all nonresident alien partners has until the 15th day of the 6th month after the close of the partnership’s tax year to file.

IRS Provides Certainty Regarding The Deductibility Of Payments By Partnerships And S Corporations For State And Local Income Taxes

IRS Provides Certainty Regarding The Deductibility Of Payments By Partnerships And S Corporations For State And Local Income Taxes

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS)  issued Notice 2020-75, which announces rules to be included in forthcoming proposed regulations.  Specifically, the proposed regulations will clarify that State and local income taxes imposed on and paid by a partnership or S corporation on its income are allowed as a deduction by the partnership or S corporation in computing its  non-separately stated taxable income or loss for the taxable year of payment, and therefore are not subject to the State and local tax deduction limitation for partners and shareholders who itemize deductions.  

The notice describing the forthcoming proposed regulations applies to these types of income taxes starting today, and also allows taxpayers to apply these rules to specified income tax payments made in a taxable year of a partnership or an S corporation ending after Dec. 31, 2017, and before the date the forthcoming proposed regulations are published in the Federal Register.

Updates on the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) can be found on the Tax Reform page of IRS.gov.

IRS Releases Draft Form 1065 Instructions On Partner Tax Basis Capital Reporting

IRS Releases Draft Form 1065 Instructions On Partner Tax Basis Capital Reporting

The IRS released an early draft of the instructions to Form 1065, U.S. Return of Partnership Income, for tax year 2020 (filing season 2021) that include revised instructions for partnerships required to report capital accounts to partners on Schedule K-1 (Form 1065).

The revised instructions are part of a larger effort by the agency to improve the quality of the information reported by partnerships to the IRS and furnished to partners to facilitate increased compliance.

The revised instructions indicate that partnerships filing Form 1065 for tax year 2020 are to calculate partner capital accounts using the transactional approach for the tax basis method. Under the tax basis method outlined in the instructions, partnerships report partner contributions, the partner’s share of partnership net income or loss, withdrawals and distributions, and other increases or decreases using tax basis principles as opposed to reporting using other methods such as GAAP.
