If you need to file a partnership tax return, it can be extremely helpful to consult with one of our tax professionals at SD Associates. Our tax experts can help ensure that your return is filed correctly, and they can also provide valuable advice on how to reduce your tax liability. With so many additional forms needed for a partnership tax return, it’s easy to inadvertently supply incorrect information or neglect to submit an important document.
Partnership tax returns are often due before personal tax returns, which makes it even more essential to work with a tax professional. If a tax return is not submitted on time, the IRS may impose penalties or interest charges. These charges can quickly add up, and they can be very difficult to remove. Your cash flow could be severely impacted if you are unable to pay these charges. Avoid the stress of legal tax fees with our team of partnership tax experts. Extensions are generally granted to those who apply, giving you a six month extension to file.
What is a partnership tax return?
A partnership tax return is a document filed with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that reports the income, expenses, and other financial information of a partnership. This return is used to calculate the taxes owed by the partnership. A partnership is defined as an association of two or more people who carry on a business together. These individuals agree to combine resources and share profits. Partnerships can be formed for various business purposes, such as to jointly own and operate a business. Common examples of partnerships include law firms, accounting firms, real estate investment companies, and medical groups.
Do partnerships pay income taxes?
According to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), partnerships are required by law to report financial data like income, deductions, gains, and losses on a yearly basis. It’s essential to note that the partnership will not pay income tax – rather, it will pass on the gains or losses to the partners. Each member of the partnership must then report these figures on their personal tax returns. The partnership will also file an information return, which is used to provide the IRS with data about the partnership’s finances.
What are the different types of partnerships?
There are three main types of partnerships: general partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships.
A general partnership is an association of two or more people who carry on a business together for profit. All partners are equally liable for the debts and obligations of the partnership. This means that each partner is personally responsible for the debts of the business, even if they did not sign any loan agreements or contracts.
A limited partnership is an association of two or more people in which there are both general and limited partners. The general partners manage the business and are personally liable for its debts. The limited partners are only liable for the amount of money they invested in the partnership.
A limited liability partnership is an association of two or more people who have formed a partnership to carry on a business for profit. This type of partnership protects each partner from being held responsible for the debts and obligations of the partnership.
What forms are needed for a partnership tax return?
A partnership tax return does not include a W-2, as partners are not considered employees. They must submit a copy of Form 1065 (also known as Schedule K-1) on behalf of the partnership.
In addition to Form 1065, individuals in a partnership may need to fill out separate documents like Form 1040 (Schedule E) or Form 965-A (Individual Report of Net 965 Tax Liability).
