# 2024 Instructions for Form 565, Partnership Return of Income

References in these instructions are to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as of January 1, 2015, and to the California Revenue and Taxation Code (R&TC).
In general, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2015, California law conforms to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as of January 1, 2015. However, there are continuing differences between California and federal law. When California conforms to federal tax law changes, we do not always adopt all of the changes made at the federal level. For more information, go to ftb.ca.gov and search for conformity.
Additional information can be found in FTB Pub. 1001, Supplemental Guidelines to California Adjustments, the instructions for California Schedule CA (540), California Adjustments — Residents, or Schedule CA (540NR), California Adjustments — Nonresidents or Part-Year Residents, and the Business Entity tax booklets.
The instructions provided with California tax forms are a summary of California tax law and are only intended to aid taxpayers in preparing their state income tax returns. We include information that is most useful to the greatest number of taxpayers in the limited space available.
It is not possible to include all requirements of the California Revenue and Taxation Code (R&TC) in the instructions. Taxpayers should not consider the instructions as authoritative law.
R&TC Sections 17024.5 and 23051.5 have been amended to clarify that, unless otherwise expressly disallowed, federal elections made before a taxpayer becomes a California taxpayer are binding for California tax purposes.

# New Partnership Audit Regime - For federal purposes, the Bipartisan

Budget Act of 2015 replaced the federal Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA) of 1982, creating a centralized partnership audit regime, and generally transferring the liability for the tax due to the partnership.
All partnerships with tax years beginning after 2017 are subject to this new regime unless an eligible partnership elects out. For California purposes, taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, partnerships are required to report each change or correction made by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), to the FTB, for the reviewed year within six months after the date of each final federal determination, and will generally be liable for the tax due.

Electronic Funds Withdrawal (EFW) - Partnerships can make an extension payment using tax preparation software. Check with your software provider to determine if they support EFW for extension payments.
Payments and Credits Applied to Use Tax - If a partnership includes use tax on its income tax return, payments and credits will be applied to use tax first, then towards franchise or income tax, interest, and penalties. For more information, see General Information U, California Use Tax and Specific Instructions.
Like-Kind Exchanges - The TCJA amended IRC Section 1031 limiting the nonrecognition of gain or loss on like-kind exchanges to real property held for productive use or investment. California conforms to this change under the TCJA for exchanges initiated after January 10, 2019.

Gross Receipts - R&TC Section 25120 was amended to add the definition of gross receipts. For a complete definition of "gross receipts", refer to R&TC Section 25120(f), or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for 25120.

# Foreign Reduced Withholding - The FTB began applying Federal

Treasury Regulation 1.1446-6 procedures to reduce or eliminate withholding of California tax on effectively connected taxable income
(ECTI) from California sources allocable to a foreign partner or member.
The foreign partner must first sign and send federal Form 8804-C, Certificate of Partner-Level Items to Reduce Section 1446 Withholding, to the partnership or LLC. The foreign partner or member must sign and send Form 589, Nonresident Reduced Withholding Request, to the FTB along with a signed copy of federal Form 8804-C. The FTB will review the request within 21 business days. If the request is approved, the partnership or LLC should remit the reduced withholding amount to the FTB along with Form 592-A, Payment Voucher for Foreign Partner or Member Withholding.
Single-Sales Factor Formula - R&TC Section 25128.7 requires all business income of an apportioning trade or business, other than an apportioning trade or business under R&TC Section 25128(b), to apportion its business income to California using the single-sales factor formula. For more information, get Schedule R, or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for single sales factor.
Market Assignment - R&TC Section 25136 requires all taxpayers to assign sales, other than sales of tangible personal property, using market assignment. For more information, get Schedule R or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for market assignment.
Doing Business - A taxpayer is doing business if it actively engages in any transaction for the purpose of financial or pecuniary gain or profit in California or if any of the following conditions are satisfied:

• The taxpayer is organized or commercially domiciled in California.
• The sales, as defined in R&TC Section 25120(e) or (f), of the taxpayer in California, including sales by the taxpayer's agents and independent contractors, exceed the lesser of $735,019 or 25% of the taxpayer's total sales.

• The amount paid in California by the taxpayer for compensation, as defined in R&TC Section 25120(c), exceeds the lesser of $73,502 or 25% of the total compensation paid by the taxpayer.

In determining the amount of the taxpayer's sales, property, and payroll for doing business purposes, include the taxpayer's pro-rata share of amounts from partnerships and S corporations. These amounts are reported on the partner's Schedule K-1 on Table 2, Part C.
Partnerships and LLCs are considered doing business in California if they have a general partner or member doing business on their behalf in California. Likewise, general partners are considered doing business in California if the partnership is doing business in this state. Members of a LLC doing business in California are considered doing business in California if the members have any ability or authority, directly or indirectly, to influence or participate in the management or operation of the LLC. For more information, see R&TC Section 23101 or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for doing business.
Backup Withholding - With certain limited exceptions, payers that are required to withhold and remit backup withholding to the IRS are also required to withhold and remit to the FTB on income sourced to California. If the payee has backup withholding, the payee must contact the FTB to provide a valid Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), before filing the tax return. Failure to provide a valid TIN may result in a denial of the backup withholding credit. For more information, go to ftb. ca. gov and search for backup withholding.
Domestic Limited Partnership Revival - California law requires a cancelled domestic limited partnership to accompany the certificate of revival filed with the California Secretary of State (SOS) with written confirmation obtained from the FTB that all required tax returns have been filed by the partnership. Also, in addition to payment of taxes, interest and penalties, fees must be paid as well. This new law further authorizes the FTB to assess a specialized tax service fee for an expedited domestic limited partnership revival confirmation letter request. The fee is:

• $100 until December 31, 2010.
• $56 on or after January 1, 2011, asset by regulation.

# Partnership Converting to a Corporation - IRS Revenue Ruling

2009 - 15 was released, which explains that in certain situations a partnership that converts to a corporation under Federal Regulation Section 301.7701-3(c) (1) (i) or under a state law formless conversion statute is eligible to make an S election effective for the corporation's first taxable year.
Conversion to an LLC
A partnership that converts to an LLC during the year must file two California returns. Even if the partners/members and the business operations remain the same, the partnership should file Form 565 for the beginning of the year to the date of change. For the remainder of the year, the newly converted LLC would file Form 568. See General Information I, Accounting Periods, for further instructions.

Paid Preparer Authorization
A partnership can designate a paid preparer to discuss the tax return with the FTB. For more information, see General Information M, Signatures, included in this booklet.

# Dissolving or Cancelling/Tax Clearance Certificate Process

Limited Partnerships (LP) or Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) are not required to obtain a Tax Clearance Certificate prior to the dissolution or cancellation of the LP or LLP. For more information, see General Information P, Cancelling a Limited Partnership (LP) or Limited Liability Partnership (LLP).

# Providing California and Federal Returns

The FTB may request copies of California or federal returns that are subject to or related to a federal examination. Generally, the California statute of limitations is four years from the return due date or from the date filed, whichever is later. However, the statute is extended in situations where an individual or a business entity is under examination by the IRS. For additional information concerning the extended statute of limitation due to a federal examination, see General Information J, Amended Return.
The FTB recommends keeping copies of returns and records that verify income, deductions, adjustments, or credits reported, for at least the minimum time required under the statute of limitations. However, some records should be kept much longer. For example, partners should keep records substantiating their basis in a partnership and property owners should keep records to figure the basis of property.

# Federal/State Differences

California tax law generally conforms to federal tax law in the area of partnerships (IRC Subchapter K - Partners and Partnerships). However, there are some differences:

• California does not conform to the federal modifications to amortization of research and experimental expenditures (IRC Section 174).
• In general, California does not conform to the ARPA.
• In general, California does not conform to the Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA), 2021.

The TCJA signed into law on December 22, 2017 made changes to the
IRC. In general, California R&TC does not conform to the changes.
California taxpayers continue to follow the IRC as of the specified date of January 1, 2015, with modifications. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the TCJA changes:

• California does not conform to the expanded definition of IRC Section 179 property for certain depreciable tangible personal property related to furnishing lodging and for qualified real property for improvements to nonresidential real property.

Additional federal/state differences may occur for the following:

• California does not conform to the qualified small business stock deferral and gain exclusion under IRC Section 1045 and IRC Section 1202.
• IRC Section 168(k) relating to the depreciation deduction for certain assets
• An $800 annual tax is generally imposed on LPs, LLCs classified as partnerships for tax purposes, LLPs, and REMICs that are partnerships or are classified as partnerships for tax purposes.
• Distributions to certain nonresident partners are subject to withholding for California tax.
• A deduction for taxes paid to other states is not allowed.
• California follows federal law by requiring partnerships to use a required taxable year. However, California does not conform to the federal required payment provision.
• California law has specific provisions concerning the distributive share of partnership taxable income allocable to California, with special apportionment formulas for professional partnerships.
• California law modifies the federal definitions for unrealized receivables and substantially appreciated inventory items.
• California has not conformed to the provisions relating to the TEFRA.
• California has not adopted the federal definition of small partnerships, as defined in IRC Section 6231.

This list is not intended to be all-inclusive for the federal and state differences. For additional information, consult R&TC.

# Revised Uniform Partnership Act (RUPA)

California has enacted RUPA which applies to partnerships formed after January 1, 1997. RUPA applies to all partnerships after January 1, 1999.
RUPA governs the formation, operation, and liquidation of partnerships in California. However, the R&TC governs the taxation of partnerships doing business in California.

# California Disclosure Obligations

If the partnership was involved in a reportable transaction, including a listed transaction, the partnership may have a disclosure requirement.
Attach federal Form 8886, Reportable Transaction Disclosure Statement, to the back of the California return along with any other supporting schedules.
If this is the first time the reportable transaction is disclosed on the return, send a duplicate copy of federal Form 8886 to the address below:

TAX SHELTER FILING

A material advisor is required to provide a reportable transaction number to all taxpayers and material advisors for whom the material advisor acts as a material advisor.
For more information, go to ftb.ca.gov and search for disclosure obligation.

# Claim of Right

If the partnership had to repay an amount that was included in income in an earlier year, under a claim of right, the partnership may be able to deduct the amount repaid from its income for the year in which it was repaid. Or, if the amount the partnership repaid is more than $3,000, the partnership may be able to take a credit against its tax for the year in which it was repaid. For more information, see the Repayments section of federal Pub. 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income.

Exception: Nonregistered foreign (i.e., not organized in California) LLCs and LPs (excluding disregarded entities/single member LLCs) that are not doing business, but are deriving income from California or filing to report an election on behalf of a California resident file Form 565 instead of Form 568.
Nonregistered foreign LLCs that are general partners in a limited partnership doing business in California are considered to be doing business in California and should file Form 568. Nonregistered foreign LLCs that are members of an LLC doing business in California are considered doing business in California if the nonreigstered foreign LLC members have any ability or authority, directly or indirectly, to influence or participate in the management or operation of the LLC. If the nonregistered foreign LLC members are considered doing business in California then the nonregistered foreign LLC members should file Form 568. (See Exceptions to Filing Form 568 in the 2024 Form 568

# Limited Liability Company Tax Booklet, General Information D, Who

Must File).
Nonregistered foreign partnerships that are general partners of a partnership doing business in California are considered doing business in California and should file Form 565. Nonregistered foreign partnerships that are members of an LLC doing business in California are considered doing business in California if the nonregistered foreign partnership members have any ability or authority, directly or indirectly, to influence or participate in the management or operation of the LLC.
If the nonregistered foreign partnership members are considered doing business in California, then the nonregistered foreign partnership members should file Form 565.

# Other Partnerships and Organizations

Certain publicly traded partnerships (PTPs) treated as corporations under IRC Section 7704 must file Form 100, California Corporation Franchise or Income Tax Return.
A qualifying syndicate, pool, joint venture, or similar organization may elect under IRC Section 761(a) (which California follows) not to be treated as a partnership for state income tax purposes and will not be required to file Form 565 except for the year of election. If Form 565 is filed, a copy of the operating agreement and all amendments must be attached to the return, unless a copy has been previously filed with the FTB.
Religious and apostolic organizations that are exempt from income tax under R&TC Section 23701k are not required to file Form 565. However, Form 565 should be prepared and attached to Form 199, California Exempt Organization Annual Information Return.

# E When and Where to File

A partnership must file Form 565 and pay the $800 annual tax (if required) by the 15th day of the 3rd month (fiscal year) or March 15, 2025 (calendar year), following the close of its taxable year.
When the due date falls on a weekend or holiday, the deadline to file and pay without penalty is extended to the next business day.

SACRAMENTO CA 94257-0500
Extensions
California does not require the filing of written extensions. If a partnership needs more time to file Form 565 by the return's due date, the partnership is granted an automatic seven month extension.
However, the automatic extension does not extend the time to pay the $800 annual tax.
If the partnership is filing the return under extension, get form FTB 3538, Payment for Automatic Extension for LPs, LLPs, and REMICs. Send form FTB 3538 and the tax payment to the FTB by the 15th day of the 3rd month following the close of the taxable year.
Electronic Funds Withdrawal
Partnerships can make an extension payment using tax preparation software. Check with your software provider to determine if they support EFW for extension payments.
Private Delivery Services
California law conforms to federal law regarding the use of certain designated private delivery services to meet the "timely mailing as timely filing/paying" rule for tax returns and payments. See the instructions for federal Form 1065 for a list of designated delivery services. If a private delivery service is used, address the return to:
FRANCHISE TAX BOARD
SACRAMENTO CA 95827
Caution: Private delivery services cannot deliver items to PO boxes.
If you will be using one of these services to mail any item to the FTB,
Do not use an FTB PO box.

# F Annual Tax

The $800 annual tax applies to all LPs, LLPs, REMICs, and LLCs, if any of the following apply to the entity:

• It is doing business in California.
• It is registered in California.
• It is organized in California.

A general partner in a limited partnership doing business in California is also considered doing business in California. A nonregistered foreign (i.e., not organized in California) LLC that is a member of an LLC doing business in California is considered doing business in California if the nonreigstered foreign LLC member has any ability or authority, directly or indirectly, to influence or participate in the management or operation of the LLC.
The annual tax cannot be deducted as an expense by the partnership or deducted from the partner's distributive share.
An LP that is filing ONLY to report California source income is NOT subject to the annual tax if all of the following apply:

• It is not doing business in California.
• It is not registered in California.
• It is not organized in California.

Enter the annual tax payment made for the 2024 taxable year on the applicable line of Form 565.

# G Penalties and Interest

Failure to File a Timely Return or Provide Information
Unless failure is due to reasonable cause, a penalty will be assessed against the partnership if it is required to file a partnership return and one of the following occur:

• It fails to file the return on time, including extensions.
• It files a return, including Schedules K-1 (565), that fails to show all the information required.

The amount of the penalty for each month, or part of a month (for a maximum of 12 months) that the failure continues, is $18 multiplied by the total number of partners in the partnership during any part of the taxable year for which the return is due. Interest will be charged on the penalty from the date the notice of tax due is sent by the FTB to the date the return is filed.
For "small partnerships," as defined in IRC Section 6231, the federal exception to the imposition of penalties for failure to file partnership returns, does not apply for California purposes. For more information, see R&TC Section 19172.
Failure to Pay Total Tax by Due Date
For LPs, LLPs, and REMICs that must pay the $800 annual tax with Form 565, a penalty for late payment of tax may be assessed. Any LP, LLP, or REMIC that fails to pay the $800 annual tax by the original due date is assessed a penalty of 5% of the unpaid tax, plus 0.5% for each month or part of a month (not to exceed 40 months) the tax remains unpaid. This penalty cannot exceed 25% of the unpaid tax. Interest will be due and payable on the late payment.
Interest
Interest is due and payable on any tax due if not paid by the original due date. Interest is also due on some penalties. The automatic extension of time to file does not stop interest from accruing. California follows federal rules for the calculation of interest. Get FTB Pub. 1138, Business Entity Refund/Billing Information, for more information.
Other Penalties/Fees
A penalty may also be charged if a payment is returned for insufficient funds. In addition, fees may be charged for the cost of collections.

# H Accounting Methods

Compute ordinary income or loss by the accounting method regularly used to maintain the partnership's books and records. This method must clearly reflect the partnership's income or loss.
Partnerships given permission to change their accounting method for federal purposes should see IRC Section 481 for information relating to the adjustments required.
Generally, a partnership may not use the cash method of accounting if the partnership has a corporate partner, average annual gross receipts of more than $5 million, or is a tax shelter. For exceptions, see IRC Section 448.
The mark-to-market accounting method is required for securities dealers. The IRC Section 481 adjustment is taken into account ratably over five years beginning with the first income year.
I Accounting Periods
Partnership returns normally must be filed for an accounting period that includes 12 full months. A short period return must be filed if the partnership is created or terminated within the taxable year. In that case, write "Short Period" in black or blue ink at the top of Form 565, Side 1.
For information on the required taxable year of a partnership, get the instructions for federal Form 1065.

# J Amended Return

If, after the partnership files its return, it becomes aware of changes it must make, the partnership should file an amended Form 565 and an amended paper Schedule K-1 (565) for each affected partner, if applicable. Check the "Amended return" box on Form 565, Side 1, Item H(3) and on Schedule K-1 (565), Side 1, Item H(2). Give a corrected Schedule K-1 (565) labeled "Amended" to each affected partner. If the partnership originally filed a group nonresident partner Form 540NR, California Nonresident or Part-Year Resident Income Tax Return, the partnership should file an amended Form 540NR.
Attach a statement that identifies the line number of each amended item, the corrected amount or treatment of the item, and an explanation of the reason(s) for each change.
If the partnership's federal return is changed for any reason, the federal change may affect the partnership's California return. This would include changes made because of an examination. The partnership must file an amended return within six months of the final federal adjustments. The partnership should attach a copy of the federal Revenue Agent's Report or other notice of the adjustments to the return. The partnership should inform the partners that they may also be required to file amended returns based on any changes made by the IRS within six months from the date of the final federal adjustments.

# K Required Information Returns

Every partnership must file information returns if, in the course of its trade or business any of the following occur:

• The partnership makes payments of rents, salaries, wages, annuities, or other fixed or determinable income during one taxable year totaling $600 or more to one person.
• The partnership pays an individual or one payee interest and dividends totaling $10 or more.
• The partnership receives cash payments over $10,000.

Payments of any amount by a broker, dealer, or barter exchange agent must also be reported.
Partnerships must report payments made to California residents by providing copies of federal Form 1099 (series).
If the partnership has nonresident partners, see the reporting and withholding requirements on Form 592, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Statement; Form 592-B, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Tax Statement; Form 592-F, Foreign Partner or Member Annual Return and Form 592-PTE, Pass-Through Entity Annual Withholding Return. Get FTB Pub. 1017, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Guidelines, for more information.
Partnerships must submit a copy of federal Form 8300, Report of Cash Payments Over $10,000 Received in a Trade or Business, within 15 days after the date of the transaction.
Partnerships must report interest paid on municipal bonds issued by a state other than California or a municipality other than a California municipality and that are held by California taxpayers. Entities paying interest to California taxpayers on these types of bonds are required to report interest payments totaling $10 or more paid after January 1, 2024. Information returns will be due June 1, 2025. Get form FTB 4800 MEO, Interest and Interest-Dividend Payment Reporting Requirement Letter, for more information.

Partnerships must use form FTB 3834, Interest Computation Under the Look-Back Method for Completed Long-Term Contracts, to report interest due or to be refunded under the look-back method on long-term contracts.
If you are filing form FTB 3834 to compute the interest due or to be refunded under the look-back method, attach a copy of form FTB 3834 to Form 565.
Any information returns required for federal purposes under IRC Sections 6038, 6038A, 6038B, and 6038D are also required for California purposes. Attach the information returns to Form 565 when filed. If the information returns are not provided, penalties may be imposed.
Mail all information returns, unless otherwise noted, separately from Form 565. Information returns should be mailed to:
FRANCHISE TAX BOARD
PO BOX 942857
SACRAMENTO CA 94257-0500

# L Special Items

California law generally follows federal law in the areas of:

• IRC Section 702(a) items
• Elections
• Distributions of unrealized receivables and inventory items
• Partners' dealings with the partnership
• Contributions to the partnership
• Allocable income of foreign nonresident partners subject to withholding, Forms 592-A, 592-B, and 592-F
• Basis and at-risk rules
• Passive activity limitations
• Net operating loss deductions by a partner (a partnership is not allowed the deduction)
• Publicly traded partnerships (PTPs)
• Long-term contracts
• Installment sales
• Vacation pay
• Amortization of past service costs
• Distributions of contributed property by a partnership
• Recognition of precontribution gain in certain partnership distributions to contributing partners See the instructions for federal Form 1065 for specific information about these provisions.

# M Signatures

General Partner
Form 565 is not considered a valid return unless it is signed by a general partner. If a receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, or assignee controls the organization's property or business, that individual must sign the return.
Include a general partner's phone number and email address in case the FTB needs to contact the partnership for information needed to process this return. By providing this information the FTB will be able to process the return or issue the refund faster.
Paid Preparer' s Information
Anyone who is paid to prepare the partnership return must sign the return and complete the "Paid Preparer's Use Only" area of the return.
The paid preparer must do all of the following:

• Complete the required preparer information. Tax preparers must provide their preparer tax identification number (PTIN).
• Sign in the space provided for the preparer's signature.
• Give the partnership a copy of the return in addition to the copy to be filed with the FTB.

An individual who prepares the return and does not charge the partnership should not sign the partnership return.
Paid Preparer Authorization
If the partnership wants to allow the paid preparer to discuss its 2024 Form 565 with the FTB, check the "Yes" box in the signature area of the return. This authorization applies only to the individual whose signature appears in the "Paid Preparer's Use Only" section of the return. It does not apply to the firm, if any, shown in that section.
If the "Yes" box is checked, the partnership is authorizing the FTB to call the paid preparer to answer any questions that may arise during the processing of its return. The partnership is also authorizing the paid preparer to:

• Give the FTB any information that is missing from the return.
• Call the FTB for information about the processing of the return or the status of any related refund or payments.
• Respond to certain FTB notices about math errors, offsets, and return preparation.

The partnership is not authorizing the paid preparer to receive any refund check, bind the partnership to anything (including any additional tax liability), or otherwise represent the partnership before the FTB.
The authorization will automatically end no later than the due date (without regard to extensions) for filing the partnership's 2025 tax return. If the partnership wants to expand the paid preparer's authorization, go to ftb.ca.gov/poa. If the partnership wants to revoke the authorization before it ends, notify the FTB in writing or call 800.852.5711.

# N Group Returns

Nonresidents or Part-Year Residents
Nonresident partners of a partnership doing business or deriving income from sources within California may elect to file a group nonresident return (R&TC Section 18535).

• Group nonresident returns may include less than two nonresident individuals.
• Nonresident individuals with more than $1,000,000 of California taxable income are eligible to be included in group nonresident returns.
• An additional 1% tax will be assessed on resident and nonresident individuals who have California taxable income over $1,000,000.

The laws guiding California's taxation of nonresidents, former nonresidents, and part-year residents set rules for calculating loss carryovers, deferred deductions, and deferred income, including the tax computation method to recognize those items. Get FTB Pub. 1100, Taxation of Nonresidents and Individuals Who Change Residency, for more information.
Get FTB Pub. 1067, Guidelines for Filing a Group Form 540NR, for more information.

# O Investment Partnerships

Income of nonresident partners, including banks and corporations, derived from "qualifying investment securities" of an "investment partnership" is considered income from sources other than California, except as noted below. Nonresident partners generally will not be taxed on this income. The partnership should inform its nonresident partners if all or a portion of their distributive share of income is from "qualifying investment securities" of an "investment partnership" and whether it is sourced to California. For definitions of qualifying investment securities and investment partnership, see Specific Instructions, Question V, included in this booklet.
However, for apportioning purposes, income from a partnership that is an investment partnership is generally considered business income (see Appeal of Estate of Marion Markus, Cal. St. Bd. of Equal., May 6, 1986).
Investment partnerships doing business within and outside California should apportion California source income using California Schedule R.
Investment partnerships doing business solely within California should treat all business income of the investment partnership as California source income.
Investment partnerships that have California source income should fill out column (e) of the Schedule K-1 (565) showing each partner's distributive share of California source income.
Generally, partners who are nonresident individuals would not record this income as California source income. However, there are two exceptions to the general rule when a nonresident individual may have California source income from an investment partnership.
Nonresident individual partners will be taxed on their distributive shares of income from the investment partnership if the income from the qualifying investment securities is interrelated with either of the following:

• Any other business activity of the nonresident partner.
• Any other entity in which the nonresident partner owns an interest that is separate and distinct from the investment activity of the partnership and that is conducted in California.

Corporations that are partners in an investment partnership are generally not taxed on their distributive share of partnership's income, provided that the income from the partnership is the corporation's only California source income. However, the corporation will be taxed on its distributive share of California source income of the partnership if either of the following apply:

• The corporation participates in the management of the investment activities of the investment partnership.
• The corporation has derived income from or attributable to sources within California other than income from the investment partnership.

# Limited Liability Partnership (LLP)

LPs and LLPs are required to pay the $800 annual tax and file Form 565 until the appropriate papers are filed with the California SOS.
The annual tax will not be assessed if the LP or LLP meet the following requirements:

1. The LP or LLP files a timely Final Partnership Return of Income for the preceding taxable year, including extension.
2. The LP or LLP did not do business in California after the final taxable year.
3. The LP or LLP files the appropriate documents for dissolution with the California SOS within 12 months of the timely filed Final Partnership Return of Income.

Limited Partnerships (LPs)
In order to terminate an LP, the following steps must be taken:

1. File a timely Final Partnership Return of Income with the FTB and pay the $800 annual tax for the taxable year of the final return.
2. File Form LP-4/7, Certificate of Cancellation, with the California SOS.

Contact the California SOS for more details.
The Form LP-4/7's effective date will stop the assessment of the $800 annual tax for future taxable years. If Form LP-4/7 is filed after the taxable year ending date, a subsequent year's return and an additional $800 tax may be required. However, if the LP does no business after the end of the taxable year for which the final annual return is filed, and the LP files its termination documents with the California SOS before 12 months from the date the final return was timely filed, the LP will not owe the annual tax for subsequent years.
Example - An LP files a timely 2024 return marked final on March 15, 2025, and pays the $800 annual tax for 2024. The LP does no business after 2024. The LP files its termination documents with the California SOS before March 16, 2026. The LP does not owe the $800 annual tax for 2025.
Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs)
In order to terminate an LLP, the following steps must be taken:

1. File a timely Final Partnership Return of Income with the FTB and pay the $800 annual tax for the taxable year of the final return.
2. File Form LLP-4, Notice of Change of Status, with the California SOS.

Contact the California SOS for more details.
The Form LLP-4's effective date (the date Form LLP-4 is received by the California SOS) will stop the assessment of the $800 annual tax for future taxable years. If Form LLP-4 is filed after the taxable year ending date, a subsequent year return and an additional $800 may be required.

# Q Withholding Requirements

# Foreign (non-U.S.) Nonresident Partners

As described in IRC Section 1446 and modified by R&TC Section 18666, if a partnership has any income or gain from a trade or business within California, and if any portion of that income or gain is allocable under IRC Section 704 to a foreign (non-U.S.) nonresident partner, the partnership is required to withhold tax on the allocable amount.

State and Federal Differences Regarding Foreign (non-U.S.)

# Nonresident Partners

California generally conforms to IRC Section 1446 and corresponding federal rulings and procedures. The main differences between California and federal laws in this area are: a. The California withholding rate is 8.84% for C corporations and 12.3% for individuals, partnerships, and fiduciaries. b. Income attributable to the disposition of California real property is subject to withholding under R&TC Section 18662.

# Domestic (U.S.) Nonresident Partners

A partnership is required to withhold funds for income or franchise taxes when it makes a distribution of income to a domestic (U.S.) nonresident partner (R&TC Section 18662). This includes prior year income that should have been, but was not, previously reported as income from California sources on the partner's California income tax return.
However, withholding is not required if distributions of income from California sources to the partner are $1,500 or less during the calendar year or if the FTB directs the payer not to withhold.
Domestic (U.S.) nonresident partners include individuals who are nonresidents of California and corporations that are not qualified to do business in California or do not have a permanent place of business in California. Domestic (U.S.) nonresident partners also include nonresident estates, trusts, LLCs, and partnerships that do not have a permanent place of business in California. Foreign nonresident partners covered under R&TC Section 18666 are not domestic nonresident partners.
Partnerships with income from within and outside California must make a reasonable estimate of the ratio, to be applied to the distributions, that approximates the ratio of California source income to total income.
The ratio for the prior year will generally be accepted as reasonable in determining the California part of the distribution subject to the withholding. Partnerships are required to withhold at a rate of 7% of distributions (including property) of income from California sources made to domestic nonresident partners.
The FTB has administrative authority to allow reduced withholding rates, including waivers, when requested in writing. These authorizations may be one-time, annual, or for a longer period. Waivers or reduced withholding rates will normally be approved when distributions are made by PTPs and on distributions to brokerage firms, tax-exempt organizations, and tiered partnerships.
No withholding is required if the distribution is a return of capital or does not represent taxable income for the current or prior years. Although a waiver is not required in this situation, if upon examination the FTB determines that withholding was required, the partnership may be liable for the withholding and penalties.

The taxable income of nonresident partners is the distributive share of California sourced partnership income, not the distributed amount.

# R Check-the-Box Regulations

California generally conforms to the federal entity classification regulations (commonly known as "check-the-box" regulations). These regulations allow certain unincorporated entities to choose tax treatment as a partnership, a corporation, or an entity disregarded as separate from its owner.
Generally, any election made for federal purposes under the federal "check- the-box" regulations is considered the California election. No separate election is allowed. If federal Form 8832, Entity Classification Election, is filed with the federal return, a copy should be attached to the electing entity's California return for the year in which the election is effective. The entity should file the appropriate California return.
An "eligible entity" may choose its classification. An eligible entity is a business entity that is not a trust, a corporation organized under a federal or state statute, a foreign entity specifically listed as a per se corporation, or other special business entities. Other special business entities under the IRC include PTPs, REMICs, financial asset securitization investment trusts (FASITs), or regulated investment companies (RICs). An eligible entity with two or more owners will be a partnership (for tax purposes) unless it elects to be taxed as a corporation. An eligible entity with a single owner will be disregarded for tax purposes, unless the entity elects to be taxed as a corporation. If the separate existence of an entity is disregarded, its activities are treated as activities of the owner and are reported on the appropriate California return.
IMPORTANT: There is an exception to the general rule that an eligible business entity is classified the same for California as for federal income tax purposes. If an eligible business entity was properly classified for California income tax purposes as an association taxable as a corporation for any income year prior to January 1, 1997, it will continue to be classified as such until it makes an irrevocable election to be classified or disregarded the same as it is for federal. The exception does not apply to a business entity which, during the 60 month period preceding January 1, 1997, was appropriately classified as an association taxable as a corporation and met all of the following conditions:

• The business entity was not doing business in California.
• The business entity did not derive income from sources within California.
• The business entity had no partners who were residents of California.

The eligible business entities to which the exception applies are generally:

1. Business trusts that were classified as corporations under California law, but were classified as partnerships for federal tax purposes for taxable years beginning before January 1, 1997; and 2) Previously existing foreign single member limited liability companies (SMLLCs) that were classified as corporations under California law but claimed to be partnerships for federal tax purposes for taxable years beginning before January 1, 1997.

These business trusts and previously existing foreign SMLLCs will continue to be classified as corporations for California tax purposes and must continue to file Form 100, unless they make an irrevocable election to be classified or disregarded the same as they are for federal tax purposes. Get form FTB 3574, Special Election for Business Trusts and Certain Foreign Single Member LLCs, and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 sections 23038(a)-(b).

# S Substitute Schedules

The LLC needs approval from the FTB to use a substitute Schedule K-1 (565). The substitute schedule must include the Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (565) or other prepared specific instructions. For more information and access to form FTB 1096, Agreement to Comply with FTB Pub. 1098 Annual Requirements and Specifications; or FTB Pub. 1098, Annual Requirements and Specifications for the Development and Use of Substitute, Scannable, and Reproduced Tax Forms, email the FTB's Substitute Forms Program at SubstituteForms@ftb.ca.gov.

# T Property Subject to IRC Section 179 Recapture

California will follow the revised federal instructions (with some exceptions) for reporting the sale, exchange, or disposition of property for which an IRC Section 179 expense deduction was claimed in prior years by a partnership, LLC, or S corporation.
If there is gain from the sale, exchange, or disposition of property for which an IRC Section 179 expense deduction was claimed in a prior year, special rules apply. Partners should follow the instructions in federal Form 4797, Sales of Business Property.
The gain on property subject to the IRC Section 179 recapture should be reported on the Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565) as supplemental information as instructed on the federal Form 4797.
The partnership must provide all of the following information with respect to a disposition of business property if an IRC Section 179 expense deduction was claimed in prior years:

1. Description of the property.
2. Date the property was acquired and placed in service.
3. Date the property was sold or other disposition.
4. Gross sales price or amount realized.
5. Cost or other basis plus expense of sale (not including the entity's basis reduction in the property due to IRC Section 179 expense deduction).
6. Depreciation allowed or allowable (not including the IRC Section 179 expense deduction).
7. Amount of IRC Section 179 expense deduction (if any).
8. An indication if the disposition is from a casualty or theft.
9. If this is an installment sale, compute the installment amount by using the method provided in form FTB 3805E, Installment Sale Income.

# General Information

Use tax has been in effect in California since July 1, 1935. It applies to purchases of property from out-of-state sellers and is similar to sales tax paid on purchases made in California. If the partnership has not already paid all use tax due to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, it may be able to report and pay the use tax due on its state income tax return. However, partnerships required to hold a California seller's permit or to otherwise register with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration for sales and use tax purposes may not report use tax on their state income tax return. See the information below and the instructions for line 32 of the income tax return.
In general, partnerships must pay California use tax on purchases of merchandise for use in California, made from out-of-state sellers, for example, by telephone, online, by mail, or in person.
Partnerships must pay California use tax on taxable items if:

• The seller does not collect California sales or use tax, and
• The partnership uses, gifts, stores, or consumes the item in California.

Example: The partnership purchases a conference table from a company in North Carolina. The company ships the table from North Carolina to the partnership's address in California for the partnership's use, and does not charge California sales or use tax. The partnership owes use tax on the purchase.

However, not all purchases require the partnership to pay use tax. For example, the partnership would include purchases of office equipment, but not exempt purchases of food products or prescription medicine.
For more information on nontaxable and exempt purchases, the partnership may refer to Publication 61, Sales and Use Taxes:
Tax Expenditures, on the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's website at cdtfa.ca.gov.
For more information about California use tax, please refer to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's website at cdtfa.ca.gov and type "Find Information About Use Tax" in the search bar.
Complete the Use Tax Worksheet on page 14 to calculate the amount due.
Extensions to File. If the partnership requests an extension to file its tax return, wait until the partnership files its tax return to report the purchases subject to use tax and to make the use tax payment.
Interest, Penalties, and Fees. Failure to timely report and pay use tax due may result in the assessment of interest, penalties, and fees.
Application of Payments. For purchases made during taxable years starting on or after January 1, 2015, payments and credits reported on an income tax return will be applied first to the use tax liability, instead of income tax liabilities, penalties, and interest.
Changes in Use Tax Reported. Do not file an Amended Partnership Return of Income to revise the use tax previously reported. If the partnership has changes to the amount of use tax previously reported on the original tax return, contact the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration.
For assistance with use tax questions, go to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's website at cdtfa.ca.gov or call their Customer Service Center at 800.400.7115 (TTY:711) (for hearing and speech disabilities). For California income tax information, contact the Franchise Tax Board at ftb.ca.gov.

# Specific Instructions

Fill In All Applicable Lines and Schedules
Enter any items specially allocated to the partners on the applicable line of the partner's Schedule K-1 (565) and the total amounts on the applicable lines of Schedule K (565). Do not enter these items directly on Form 565, Side 1, Schedule A or Schedule D (565). Do not apply the apportionment factor to the items on Schedule K (565).
Whole numbers should be shown on the return and accompanying schedules.
Name, Address, FEIN, and California SOS File Number
The partnership may use its legal or trade name on all California returns and other documents filed. Print the partnership's legal or trade name, address, FEIN, and California SOS file number.

• Federal employer identification number (FEIN)
• California SOS file number or enter the FTB assigned identification number in the CA SOS file number field.
• Partnership name (use the legal name filed with the California SOS) and address, include Private Mail Box (PMB) number, if applicable.

Use the Additional information field for "Owner/Representative/Attention" name and other supplemental address information only.
Foreign Address
If the partnership has a foreign address, follow the country's practice for entering the city, county, province, state, country, and postal code, as applicable, in the appropriate boxes. Do not abbreviate the country name.
Item G - Total Assets at End of Taxable Year See the instructions for Question P before completing this item.
If the partnership is required to complete this item, enter the total assets at the end of the partnership's taxable year. This is determined by the accounting method regularly used to maintain the partnership's books and records. If there are no assets at the end of the taxable year, enter $0.
Item H(2) - Final Return
If the partnership is filing a final year tax return, check the "Final Return" box on Form 565, Side 1, Item H(2), and check the "A final Schedule K-1 (565)" box for Item H(1) on Schedule K-1 (565). Attach a statement that explains the reason for the termination or liquidation of the partnership.
Item H(4) Protective Claim
Check the box if this Form 565 is being filed as a protective claim for refund. A protective claim is a claim for refund filed before the expiration of the statute of limitations for which a determination of the claim depends on the resolution of some other disputed issues, such as pending state or federal litigation or audit. For more information on how to file a protective claim, go to ftb.ca.gov and search for protective claim.
Question I
All partnerships must answer all three questions. The questions provide information regarding changes in control or ownership of legal entities owning or under certain circumstances leasing California real property (R&TC Section 64). (Real Property includes land, buildings, structures, fixtures - see R&TC Section 104).
If any of the answers are "Yes," a Statement of Change in Control and Ownership of Legal Entities must be filed with the State of California; failure to do so within 90 days of the event date will result in penalties.
The form for this statement is form BOE-100-B, filed with the California State Board of Equalization. Get this form and information from the BOE website (boe.ca.gov) by searching for Legal Entity Ownership Program (LEOP).
There may be a change in ownership or control if, during this year, one of the following occurred with respect to this partnership (or any legal entity in which it holds a controlling or majority interest):

• The percentage of partnership interests transferred to or owned or controlled by, one person or one legal entity cumulatively exceeded 50%.
• The total partnership interests transferred to or held by one irrevocable trust or trust beneficiary cumulatively exceeded 50%.
• This partnership, (or any legal entity in which it holds a controlling or majority interest), cumulatively acquired ownership or control of more than 50% of the partnership or other ownership interests in any legal entity.
• As of the end of this year, cumulatively more than 50% of the total partnership interests have been transferred in one or more transactions since an interest in California real property was transferred to the partnership that was excluded from property tax reassessment under R&TC Section 62(a)(2) which established an original co-owners' interest status.

For purposes of these questions, leased real property is a leasehold interest in taxable real property: (1) leased for a term of 35 years or more (including renewal options), if not leased from a government agency; or (2) leased for any term, if leased from a government agency.
For partnerships, ownership interest is measured by a partner's interest in both the capital and profits interests in the partnership.
R&TC Section 64(e) requires this information for use in determining whether a change in ownership has occurred under Section 64(c) and (d); it is used by the LEOP.

# Income

Line 1 through Line 12
California's reporting requirements are generally the same as the federal reporting requirements. Follow the instructions for federal Form 1065 and only include trade or business activity income on line 1 through line 12. However, for California tax purposes, business income of the partnership is computed using the rules set forth in R&TC Section 25120. Therefore, certain income that may be portfolio income for federal purposes may be business income for California sourcing purposes. Do not include rental activity income or portfolio income on these lines. Rental activity income and portfolio income are separately reported on Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565). Rental real estate activities are also reported on federal Form 8825, Rental Real Estate Income and Expenses of a Partnership or an S Corporation. Attach a copy of federal Form 8825 to Form 565. Use California amounts and attach a statement reconciling any differences between federal and California amounts.

Use worldwide amounts determined under California law when completing these lines.
Form 565, line 4 through line 11 have been separated to report total gains and total losses. Net amounts are no longer reported. For example, the partnership is required to report a $100 Other Income item and a <$20> Other Loss item. The $100 Other Income item must be reported on Line 10 and the <$20> Other Loss item loss must be reported as a negative number on Line 11.
Line 6 - Total Farm Profit
Line 7 - Total Farm Loss
Enter on line 6 the partnership's total farm profit from federal Schedule F (Form 1040), Profit or Loss from Farming, line 34, Net farm profit or (loss). Enter on line 7 the partnership's total farm loss from federal Schedule F (Form 1040), line 34. Attach federal Schedule F to Form 565.
If the amount includable for California purposes is different from the amount on federal Schedule F, enter the California amount and attach a note explaining the difference.
Line 8 - Total Gain from Schedule D-1 Line 9 - Total Loss from Schedule D-1 Include only ordinary gains (losses) from the sale, exchange, or involuntary conversion of assets used in a trade or business activity.
Ordinary gains (losses) from the sale, exchange, or involuntary conversion of rental activity assets must be reported separately on Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565).
A partnership that is a partner in another partnership must include on Schedule D-1, Sales of Business Property, its share of ordinary gains (losses) from sales, exchanges, or involuntary conversions (other than casualties or thefts) of the other partnership's trade or business assets.

# Deductions

Line 13 through Line 22
California's reporting requirements are generally the same as the federal reporting requirements. Follow the instructions for federal Form 1065 and only include trade or business activity deductions on line 13 through line 21. Include amounts for repairs, rents, and taxes on line 21.
Do not include any rental activity expenses or deductions that are allocable to portfolio income on these lines. Rental activity deductions and deductions allocable to portfolio income are separately reported on Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565).
Use worldwide amounts determined under California law when completing these lines.
Federal reporting requirements for organization expenses, syndication expenses, and uniform capitalization rules apply for California.
For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014, California does not allow a business expense deduction for any fine or penalty paid or incurred by an owner of a professional sports franchise assessed or imposed by the professional sports league that includes that franchise. If the partnership deducted the fine or penalty for federal purposes, do not include the deduction for California purposes.
Claim of Right. To claim as a deduction, enter the amount on line 21. If you elect to take the credit instead of the deduction, remember to use the California tax rate, and add the credit amount to the total on line 31, Total payments. To the left of this total, write "IRC 1341" and the amount of the credit.

# Line 17a - Depreciation and Amortization

Enter on line 17a the total depreciation and amortization claimed on assets used in a trade or business activity. Complete and attach form FTB 3885P, Depreciation and Amortization, to figure depreciation and amortization. Transfer the total from form FTB 3885P, line 6, to Form 565, Side 1, line 17a, or federal Form 8825, line 14, or as appropriate (use California amounts). See the instructions for form FTB 3885P for more information.
Do not include any expense deduction for recovery property (IRC Section 179) on this line. This expense is not deducted by the partnership. Instead, it is passed through separately to the partners and is reported on line 12 of Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565).

Line 24 - Tax
Enter the $800 annual tax required for LPs, LLPs, and REMICs. See General Information F, Annual Tax, for further details on the annual tax requirements.

Line 25 - Pass-Through Entity Elective Tax Enter the total amount of elective tax from form FTB 3804, Part I, Elective Tax, line 3.

# Line 26 - Partnership Level Tax

Use this line to report the Partnership Level Tax (PLT) for California purposes resulting from changes or corrections made by IRS under its centralized partnership audit regime. PLT is typically reported on an amended return. See R&TC Section 18622.5(d)(1)(A) for how to compute the PLT for state tax purposes.

Line 28 - Withholding (Form 592-B and/or 593) If taxes were withheld from payment to the partnership, the partnership can either allocate the entire withholding credit to all its partners or claim a portion (not to exceed the total tax due) and allocate the remaining portion to all its partners. If the partnership claims any of the amount withheld, attach Form 592-B or Form 593, Real Estate Withholding Statement, to the front lower portion of the partnership return. The partnership must file Forms 592, 592-F, or 592-PTE, and 592-B to allocate any remaining withholding credit to its partners. For more information, get FTB Pub. 1017.
The above explanation does not apply to the nonconsenting nonresident member's tax paid by an LLC on behalf of the nonresident partner.
The nonconsenting nonresident members' tax is not related to the partnership withholding on nonresident partners. Therefore, the tax cannot be claimed using Forms 592, 592-F, 592-PTE, and 592-B; and cannot be claimed by the partnership on this line. The partnership will allocate the entire amount paid by the LLC on its behalf to all of its partners on Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565), line 15e.
Line 30 - Amounts paid for pass-through entity elective tax Enter any payments made for pass-through entity elective tax for the 2024 taxable year. This includes electronic payments and payments made with form FTB 3893. This also includes elective tax payments made with the entity's return. The elective tax payment cannot be combined with the entity's other tax payments.

# Line 32 - Use Tax

As explained under Use Tax General Information U, California use tax applies to purchases of merchandise from out-of-state sellers (for example, purchases made by telephone, online, by mail, or in person) where sales or use tax was not paid and those items were used in California. For questions on whether a purchase is taxable, go to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration's website at cdtfa.ca.gov, or call their Customer Service Center at 800.400.7115 (TTY:711) (for hearing and speech disabilities).
Note: The following businesses are required to report purchases subject to use tax directly to the California Department of Tax and Fee Adminstration and may not report use tax on their income tax return:

• Businesses that have, or are required to hold, a California seller's permit.
• Businesses that make more than $10,000 in purchases subject to use tax (excluding vehicles, vessels, and aircraft) per calendar year and have not paid use tax on those purchases to a retailer engaged in business in California or to a retailer authorized by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration to collect the tax.
• Businesses that are otherwise registered or required to be registered with the California Department of Tax and Fee Adminstration to report use tax.

A partnership that is not required to report purchases subject to use tax directly to the California Department of Tax and Fee Adminstration may, with some exceptions, report use tax on its Partnership Return of Income. To report use tax on the tax return, complete the Use Tax Worksheet on this page.
Note: A partnership may not report use tax on its income tax return for certain types of transactions. These types of purchases are listed in the instructions for completing Worksheet, Line 1.

If the partnership owes use tax but does not report it on the income tax return, the partnership must report and pay the tax to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration. For information on how to report use tax directly to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, go to their website at cdtfa.ca.gov and type "Find Information About Use Tax" in the search bar.
Failure to timely report and pay the use tax due may result in the assessment of interest, penalties, and fees.

Enter penalties and interest. See General Information G, Penalties and Interest.

# Questions

# Question J

Check only one box for this question. The partnership checks the box that best describes its business type. For definitions of general partnership, limited partnership, real estate mortgage investment conduit, and limited liability partnership, see General Information C, Definitions, and the instructions for federal Form 1065.
Doing Business - A taxpayer is doing business if it actively engages in any transaction for the purpose of financial or pecuniary gain or profit in California or if any of the following conditions are satisfied:

• The taxpayer is organized or commercially domiciled in California.
• The sales, as defined in R&TC Section 25120(e) or (f), of the taxpayer in California, including sales by the taxpayer's agents and independent contractors, exceed the lesser of $735,019 or 25% of the taxpayer's total sales.

For more information, see R&TC Section 23101 or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for doing business.
Line Item 6 of Question J is for other types of entities not previously mentioned on line 1 through line 5. If your entity is not a general partnership, LP, REMIC, or LLP, then check the box for line item 6 only.
In the space provided, write in the type of entity.

# Item K - Principal Business Activity Code (PBA)

California uses the six-digit PBA code from the Principal Business Activity Codes chart included in this booklet.
For example, if, as its principal business activity, the partnership (a) purchases raw materials, (b) subcontracts out for labor to make a finished product from the raw materials, and (c) retains title to the goods, the partnership is considered to be a manufacturer and must enter "Manufacturer" on the business activity line and on the principal business activity code line, one of the codes (311110 through 339900) listed under "Manufacturing" on the list, Codes for Principal Business Activity.

Question L
Enter the maximum number of partners in the partnership during the taxable year. The number of Schedules K-1 (565) attached to Form 565 must equal the number of partners entered in Question L. Do not use abbreviations or terms such as "Various."

# Question P

Check the "Yes" box if all of the following conditions are met: a) The partnership's total receipts for the taxable year were less than $250,000. b) The partnership's total assets at the end of the taxable year were less than $1 million. c) Schedules K-1 (Form 1065) are filed with the return and furnished to the partners on or before the due date (including extensions) for the partnership return.
If Question P is answered "Yes," the partnership is not required to complete Schedules L, M-1, M-2, or Item G on Side 1 of Form 565 or Item J on Schedule K-1 (565).

# Question U

California requires taxes to be withheld from certain payments or allocations of income and sent to the FTB (R&TC Sections 18662 and Section 18666). If upon examination, the FTB determines that tax withholding was required, the partnership can be liable for the tax and penalties.
The reference to Forms 592, 592-A, 592-B, 592-F, and 592-PTE relates to withholding done by the partnership. If you need additional information concerning partnership withholding, see General

Information K, Required Information Returns, and General Information Q, Withholding Requirements.

# Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565) —

Partner's Shares of Income, Deductions, Credits, etc.
Purpose of Schedules
Schedule K (565) is a summary schedule for the partnership's income, deductions, credits, etc., and Schedule K-1 (565) shows each partner's distributive share. The line items for both of these schedules are the same unless otherwise noted.
One copy of each Schedule K-1 (565) must be attached to Form 565 when it is filed with the FTB. For alternative methods of filing Schedules K-1 (565), see General Information S, Substitute Schedules.
Be sure to give each partner a copy of their respective Schedule K-1 (565). Also include a copy of the Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (565) or specific instructions for each item reported on the partner's Schedule K-1 (565). These items should be provided to the partner on or before the due date of the Form 565.

In column (c), enter the adjustments resulting from differences between California and federal law (not adjustments relating to California source income). In column (d) on Schedule K (565), enter the worldwide income computed under California law. For partners to comply with the requirements of IRC Section 469, trade or business activity income (loss), rental activity income (loss), and portfolio income (loss) must be considered separately by the partners. Rental activity income (loss) and portfolio income (loss) are not reported on Form 565, Side 1 so that these amounts are not combined with trade or business activity income (loss). Schedule K (565) is used to report the totals of these (and other) amounts.
Apportioning Partnerships Only
Once the Schedule K (565) has been completed, apportioning partnerships should also complete Schedule R before completing its partners' Schedules K-1 (565).
Compliance with Partnership Filing Requirements
To help ensure the accurate and timely processing of the partnership's Form 565, verify the following:

• A California approved Schedule K-1 (565) has been attached to Form 565 for each partner identified on Form 565, Side 2, Question

L. Partnerships eligible for the reduced filing program, see General Information D, Who Must File.

Determining the Source of the Partnership's Income for a Resident
Partner
A resident partner should include the entire distributive share of partnership income in their California income. If the partnership is apportioning, the partner may be entitled to a credit for taxes paid to other states. The partner should be referred to the California Schedule S, Other State Tax Credit, for more information.
Determining the Source of the Partnership's Income for a Nonresident Partner Business income: Regardless of the classification of income for federal purposes, income from California sources is determined in accordance with California law, (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 section 17951-4).
The California source income from a trade or business of a Nonresident

Individuals generally source this income to their state of residence and corporations to their commercial domicile.
Because the determination of the source of intangible nonbusiness income must be made at the partner level, this income is not entered on Schedule K-1 (565), column (e). It is entered only on Side 4, Table 1.

# Completing Partner's Distributive Share, Column (b) through Column (e)

• In column (b), enter the amounts from federal Schedule K-1 (1065).
• In column (c), enter the adjustments resulting from differences between California and federal law for each specific line item.
• In column (d), enter the result of combining column (b) and column (c). This is total income under California law.

Column (e) is used to report California source or apportioned amounts and credits. Include the following items in this column:
For Individuals:

1. Income from separate businesses, trades, or professions conducted wholly within California, Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 section 17951-4(a).
2. Income from a trade or business conducted within and outside California, when the part of business conducted within California is separate and distinct from the part outside California and can be separately accounted for, Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 section 17951-4(b).
3. Nonbusiness income from real and tangible property located in California. Enter the partner's share of nonbusiness income from real and tangible property located in California in column (e).
4. Income from a trade or business conducted within and outside California. Enter the amount of business income apportioned to California according to Schedule R. This includes intangible income attributable to the business, trade, or profession, Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 section 17951-4(d) and R&TC Sections 25128 through 25137.

Business income of an apportioning trade or business, other than an apportioning trade or business described in R&TC Section 25128(b), is apportioned to this state by multiplying the business income by the sales factor. Apportioning partnerships should complete Schedule R and attach it to Form 565.

1. California credits.

For Corporations and Other Business Entities:

1. Income from a trade or business conducted within and outside California. See #4 under For Individuals.
2. Nonbusiness income from real and tangible property located in California. Enter the partner's share of nonbusiness income from real and tangible property located in California in column (e). If the partnership believes it may have a unitary partner, enter this income in Table 2, Part B.
3. California credits.

For all partners, nonbusiness income from intangible property should not be entered in column (e). Enter this income in Table 1. For more information, see Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (565).

# Column (d) and Column (e)

Schedule K-1 (565), column (d), includes the partner's distributive share of total partnership income, deductions, gains, or losses under California law. Column (e) includes only income, deductions, gains, or losses that are apportioned or sourced to California. The computation of these amounts is a matter of law and regulation. The residency of the partner is not a factor in the computation of amounts to be included in column (d) and column (e).
For a partnership that is doing business wholly within California, column (e) will generally be the same as column (d), except for nonbusiness intangible income (for example, nonbusiness interest, dividends, gains, or losses from sales of securities).
For a partnership that is doing business within and outside California, the amounts in column (d) and column (e) may be different.
If the partnership knows the partner is a resident individual, then the partnership answers "Yes" to Question I on Schedule K-1 (565), and completes column (d) only. Otherwise, the partnership should complete column (e) for all other partners.
Completing Table 1
Complete Table 1 only if the partnership has nonbusiness intangible income. If the partnership has nonbusiness intangible income, but knows that the partner is a resident individual, then the partnership does not need to complete Table 1 for the partner.
Completing Table 2
The partnership will complete Table 2, Parts A to C for unitary partners and Table 2 Part C for all non-unitary partners. Table 2 does not need to be completed for non-unitary individuals.
The Partnership will complete Table 2, Part C to report the partner's distributive share of property, payroll and sales Total within California.
The partners will use Table 2, Part C to determine if they meet threshold amounts of California property, payroll, and sales for the doing business threshold in California. For more information about doing business, see General Information A, Important Information.

Special Rules for Partners and Partnerships in a Single Unitary Business
Special rules apply if the partnership and a partner are engaged in a single unitary business. In that case, a unitary partner will not use the income information shown in column (e). Instead, the partner's distributive share of business income is combined with the partner's own business income. The combined business income is apportioned using an apportionment formula that consists of an aggregate of the partner's share of the apportionment factors from the partnership and the partner's apportionment factors, Cal. Code Regs., tit. 18 section 25137-1. The determination of whether a single sales factor or a three-factor apportionment formula applies to the combined income will be made at the partner level. The partner's distributive share of business income and property, payroll, and sales factors are entered in Table 2.
If the partnership knows that all of the partners are unitary with the partnership, the partnership need not complete column (e) for any of the Schedules K-1 (565) or attach a Schedule R. For further information, see Partner's Instructions for Schedule K-1 (565).

# Special Rules for Partners and Partnerships in a Non-Unitary Business

If the apportioning trade or business conducted by a partner is not unitary with the apportioning trade or business of the partnership, the partnership apportions its business income separately using Schedules R-1, R-2, R-3, and R-4 only. The different items of business income as apportioned to California are entered in column (e).

# Special Reporting Requirements for Passive Activities

If items of income (loss), deduction, or credit from more than one activity are reported on Schedule K-1 (565), the partnership must attach a statement to Schedule K-1 (565) for each activity that is a passive activity to the partner. Rental activities are passive activities to all partners; trade or business activities are passive activities to limited partners and to general partners who do not materially participate in the activity. The statement must include all the information explained in the instructions for federal Schedule K-1 (1065).
Completing Table 3
Complete Table 3 for partners that are partnerships or LLCs. Enter only amounts used to determine income (loss) derived from and attributable to California sources.
Include the partner's distributive share of the cost of goods sold and deductions, as adjusted for California law, from any ordinary income
(loss) of your trade or business. These amounts are on Side 1 of Form 565. The California law adjustments are on Schedule K (565), line 1, column (c). Also, enter the partner's distributive share of total gross rents from property located in California from federal Form 8825. Even if your pass-through entity partners are not LLCs, you must enter this information. LLCs in tiered entity structures that include your partnership's activities may use this information to complete Schedule IW, Limited Liability Company (LLC) Income Worksheet, and determine the LLC fee.
If your partnership owns pass-through entities and received Schedule K-1 (565), Table 3 information, multiply these amounts by the partner's distributive share percentage and combine the results with the amounts from your return as determined above.

# Specific Line Instructions

The California Schedule K (565) generally follows the federal Schedule K (1065). Where California and federal laws are the same, the instructions for California Schedule K (565) refer to the instructions for federal Schedule K (1065).

California Venues Grant. For taxable years beginning on or after September 1, 2020 and before January 1, 2030, California law allows an exclusion from gross income for grant allocations received by a taxpayer pursuant to the California Venues Grant Program that is administered by CalOSBA.

Zones. IRC Sections 1400Z-1 and 1400Z-2 provide a temporary deferral of inclusion of gross income for capital gains reinvested in a qualified opportunity fund, and exclude capital gains from the sale or exchange of an investment in such funds. California does not conform to the deferral and exclusion of capital gains reinvested or invested in federal opportunity zone funds under IRC Sections 1400Z-1 and 1400Z-2, and has no similar provisions. If, for California purposes, gains from investment in qualified opportunity zone property had been included in income during previous taxable year, do not include the gain in the current year income.
Wildfire Mitigation Payment. California law allows a qualified taxpayer an exclusion from gross income for any amount received as a California qualified wildfire loss mitigation payment through the California Wildfire Mitigation Financial Assistance Program.

Line 10 - Enter on line 10, the amount shown on Schedule D-1, Sales of Business Property, line 7. Do not include specially allocated ordinary gains and losses or net gains or losses from involuntary conversions due to casualties or thefts. Instead, report them on line 11b or line 11c.
If the partnership has more than one activity and the amount on line 10 is a passive activity amount to the partner, attach a statement to Schedule K-1 (565) that identifies to which activity the IRC Section 1231 gain (loss) relates.

# Deductions

Line 12 through Line 13
See the instructions for federal Form 1065, Specific Instructions Schedules K and K-1 and Schedule K-1 (565), Deductions, line 12, and line 13a through line 13f.
California follows the revised federal instructions for reporting the sale, exchange or disposition of property for which an IRC Section 179 expense deduction was claimed in prior years by a partnership.
Line 13a and Line 13b - Contributions
Enter on Line 13a and 13b the total amount of charitable cash contributions and charitable noncash contributions made by the partnership during its taxable year on Schedule K (565) and each partner's distributive share on Schedule K-1 (565). Attach an itemized list to both schedules showing the amount subject to the 50%, 30%, and 20% limitations.
For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2026, the 50% limitation under IRC Section 170(b) for cash contributions to public charities and certain private foundations is increased to 60% for federal purposes. California does not conform. The limitation for California is 50%.
Partners are allowed a deduction for contributions to qualified organizations as provided in IRC Section 170. California law conforms to the federal law, relating to the denial of the deduction for lobbying activities, club dues, and employee remuneration in excess of one million dollars.
California conforms to IRC Section 170(f)(8) substantiation requirement for charitable contributions.
For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2017, and before January 1, 2028, do not include any amounts taken into account for the College Access Tax credit as a contribution deduction.
Line 13c - Investment Interest Expense This line must be completed whether or not a partner is subject to the investment interest rules. Enter the interest paid or accrued to purchase or carry property held for investment. Property held for investment includes property that produces portfolio income (interest, dividends, annuities, royalties, etc.). Therefore, interest expense allocable to portfolio income should be reported on line 13c of Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565), rather than line 13e of Schedule K (565) and Schedule K-1 (565).
Property held for investment includes a partner's interest in a trade or business activity that is not a passive activity to the partnership and in which the partner does not materially participate. An example would be a partner's working interest in an oil and gas property (i.e., the partner's interest is not limited) if the partner does not materially participate in the oil and gas activity. Investment interest does not include interest expense allocable to a passive activity. For more information, get form FTB 3526, Investment Interest Expense Deduction.
Line 14
The information reported on line 14 of the federal Schedule K (1065), and federal Schedule K-1(1065), does not apply to California and therefore there is no line 14.

# Credits

California line numbers are different from federal line numbers in this section.

# Line 15a - Total Withholding, Schedule K-1 (565) only

# Line 15d - Credits Related to Other Rental Activities

Use this line to report information that the partners need to figure credits related to a rental activity. Attach to each partner's Schedule K-1 (565) a statement showing the amount to be reported and the applicable form on which the amount should be reported.

# Line 15e - Nonconsenting Nonresident Member's Tax Allocated to All

Partners
If income tax was paid by an LLC on behalf of a member that is a partnership because the general partner in the partnership did not sign form FTB 3832, Limited Liability Company Nonresident Members' Consent, the amount paid is entered on the member's Schedule K-1 (568), line 15e. This credit is allocated to all partners according to their partnership interest. Partners must attach a copy of the Schedule K-1 (568), previously issued to their partnership by the LLC as well as the Schedule K-1 (565) issued by their partnership, to their California tax return to claim their share of the tax paid by the LLC on their partnership's behalf.

Line 15f may also include the distributive share of net income taxes paid to other states by the partnership. Subject to limitations of R&TC Section 18001 and R&TC Section 18006, partners may claim a credit against their individual income tax for net income taxes paid by the partnership to another state. The amount of tax paid must be supported by a schedule of payments and evidence of tax liability by the partnership to the other states. Refer partners to the California Schedule S for more information.
Line 16
The information reported on line 16 of the federal Schedule K (1065) and federal Schedule K-1(1065), Foreign Transactions, does not apply to California and therefore there is no line 16.

# Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) Items

Line 17a through Line 17f
Enter each partner's distributive share of income and deductions that are adjustments and tax preference items. Get Schedule P (100, 100W, 540, 540NR, or 541), Alternative Minimum Tax and Credit Limitations, to determine amounts and for other information.
California law conforms to the existing federal law eliminating the deduction for contributions of appreciated property as an item of tax preference. As a result, taxpayers no longer need to include in their computation of Alternative Minimum Taxable Income the amount by which any allowable deduction for contributions of appreciated property exceeds the taxpayer's adjusted basis in the contributed property.
For additional information, see instructions for federal Schedule K (1065), Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) Items, line 17a through line 17f. For differences between federal and California law for AMT, see R&TC Section 17062.

Investment income includes gross income from property held for investment, gain attributable to the disposition of property held for investment, and other amounts that are gross portfolio income.
Investment income and investment expenses generally do not include any income or expenses from a passive activity.

Supplemental Information
The partnership may need to report supplemental information that is not specifically requested on the Schedule K-1 (565) separately to each partner. If the partnership has supplemental information not included in lines 1 through 20b, write, "See attached" on line 20c, column (b) and column (d) and provide a schedule with the details.
Partners may need to obtain the amount of their proportionate interest of aggregate gross receipts, less returns and allowances, from the partnership.
The gain or loss on property subject to the IRC Section 179 Recapture should be reported on Schedule K-1 (565) as supplemental information as instructed on the federal Form 4797.

The partnership must provide all of the following information with respect to a disposition of business property if an IRC Section 179 expense deduction was claimed in prior years: a. Description of the property. b. Date the property was acquired. c. Date the property was sold. d. The partner's pro-rata share of the gross sales price. e. The partner's pro-rata share of the cost or other basis plus expense of sale (not including the entity's basis reduction in the property due to IRC Section 179 expense deduction). f. The partner's pro-rata share of the depreciation allowed or allowable (not including the IRC Section 179 expense deduction). g. The partner's pro-rata share of the amount of IRC 179 expense deduction (if any) passed through to the partner for the property and the partnership's taxable year(s) in which the amount was passed through. h. An indication if the disposition is from a casualty or theft. i. If this is an installment sale, any information needed to complete form FTB 3805E. The partnership also must separately report the partner's pro-rata share of all payments in future taxable years.
(Installment payments received for installment sales made in prior taxable years should be reported in the same manner used in prior taxable years.) Alternative minimum taxable income does not include income, positive and negative adjustments, and preference items attributed to any trade or business of a qualified taxpayer who has aggregate gross receipts, less returns and allowances, during the taxable year of less than $1,000,000 from all trades or businesses in which the taxpayer is an owner or has an ownership interest. The partnership should provide the partner's proportionate interest of aggregate gross receipts on Schedule K-1 (565), line 20c.
For purposes of R&TC Section 17062(b)(4), "aggregate gross receipts, less returns and allowances" means the sum of all of the following:

• The gross receipts of the trades or businesses which the taxpayer owns.
• The proportionate interest of the gross receipts of the trades or businesses which the taxpayer owns.
• The proportionate interest of the pass-through entity's gross receipts in which the taxpayer holds an interest.

"Aggregate gross receipts" means the sum of gross receipts from the production of business income, within the meaning of R&TC Section 25120(a) and (c), and the gross receipts from the production of nonbusiness income as defined in R&TC Section 25120(d).
R&TC Section 25120 was amended to add the definition of gross receipts. For a complete definition of "gross receipts", refer to R&TC Section 25120(f), or go to ftb.ca.gov and search for 25120.
For purposes of this section, "pass-through entity" means a partnership (as defined by R&TC Section 17008), an S corporation, a regulated investment company (RIC), a real estate investment trust (REIT), and a REMIC. See R&TC Section 17062 for more information.
Also show on line 20c a statement showing each of the following:

1. Each partner's distributive share of business income apportioned to an EZ, LAMBRA, MEA, or TTA.
2. Each partner's distributive share of business capital gain or loss included in 1 above.

Other Partner Information -

# Schedule K-1 (565) Only

Table 1
Enter the partner's share of nonbusiness income from intangibles.
Because the source of this income must be determined at the partner level, do not enter income in this category in column (e). If the income
(loss) for an income item is a mixture of income (loss) in different subclasses (for example, short-term and long-term capital gain), attach a supplemental schedule providing a breakdown of income in each subclass.
Enter nonbusiness income from intangibles in Table 1 net of related expenses.
Table 2
The partnership will complete Table 2, Parts A to C for unitary partners and Table 2, Part C for all non-unitary partners. Table 2 does not need to be completed for non-unitary individuals.
The final determination of unity is made at the partner level. If the partnership and the partner are unitary, or if the partnership is uncertain as to whether it is unitary with the partner, it should furnish the information in Table 2.
Part A. Enter the partner's distributive share of the partnership's business income. The partner will then add that income to its own business income and apportion the combined business income.
Cal Code Regs., tit. 18 section 25120 defines "business income" as income arising from transactions and activity in the regular course of the taxpayer's trade or business and includes income from tangible and intangible property if the acquisition, management, and disposition of the property constitute integral parts of the taxpayer's regular trade or business operations. In essence, all income which arises from the conduct of trade or business operations of a taxpayer is business income.
Part B. Enter the partner's share of nonbusiness income from real and tangible property that is located in California. This income has a California source, and should also be included on the appropriate line in column (e).
Nonbusiness income is all income other than business income.
Part C. Enter the partner's distributive share of the partnership's property, payroll, and sales factors.
The partnership will complete Table 2, Part C to report the partner's distributive share of property, payroll and sales Total within California.
The partners will use Table 2, Part C to determine if they meet threshold amounts of California property, payroll, and sales for the doing business threshold in California. For more information about doing business, see General Information A, Important Information.
Table 3
Complete Table 3 for partners that are partnerships or LLCs. Enter only amounts used to determine income (loss) derived from and attributable to California sources.
Include the partner's distributive share of the cost of goods sold and deductions, as adjusted for California law, from any ordinary income
(loss) of your trade or business. These amounts are on Side 1 of Form 565. The California law adjustments are on Schedule K (565), line 1, column (c). Also, enter the partner's distributive share of total gross rents from property located in California from federal Form 8825.
Even if your pass-through entity partners are not LLCs, you must enter this information. LLCs in tiered entity structures that include your partnership's activities may use this information to complete Schedule IW and determine the LLC fee.
If your partnership owns pass-through entities and received Schedule K-1 (565), Table 3 information, multiply these amounts by the partner's distributive share percentage and combine the results with the amounts from your return as determined above.
Schedule A - Cost of Goods Sold California's reporting requirements are generally the same as the federal reporting requirements. Follow the instructions for federal Form 1125-A, Cost of Goods Sold.
Schedule L - Balance Sheets
California's reporting requirements are the same as the federal reporting requirements. The amounts reported on the balance sheet should agree with the books and records of the partnership and should include all amounts whether or not subject to taxation. Attach a statement explaining any differences between federal and state amounts or any differences between the balance sheet and the partnership's books and records. Follow the instructions for federal Form 1065, Schedule L.
Domestic partnerships with 10 or fewer partners may not have to complete Schedule L. See the instructions for Question P for the specific requirements to qualify for this exception.
Schedule M-1, Reconciliation of Income (Loss) per Books With Income (Loss) per Return, and Schedule M-2, Analysis of Partners'

# Capital Accounts

Domestic partnerships with 10 or fewer partners may not have to complete Schedule M-1, Schedule M-2, or Item L on Schedule K-1 (565). See the instructions for Question P for the specific requirements to qualify for this exception.
If the partnership is required to complete Schedule M-1 and Schedule M-2, the amounts shown should agree with the partnership's books and records and the balance sheet amounts. Attach a statement explaining any differences.
Use worldwide amounts determined under California law when completing Schedule M-1. Also, the amounts on Schedule M-2 should equal the total of the amounts reported in Item L, columns (c), (d), and (e), of all the partners' Schedules K-1 (565). If the sum of all members' schedules K-1 do not equal the corresponding M-2 lines attach a statement explaining the difference.
Net Income (Loss) Reconciliation for Certain Partnerships. For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014, the IRS allows partnerships with at least $10 million but less than $50 million in total assets at tax year end to file Schedule M-1 (Form 1065) in place of Schedule M-3 (Form 1065), Parts II and III. However, Schedule M-3 (Form 1065), Part I, is required for these partnerships. For California purposes, the partnership must complete the California Schedule M-1, and attach either of the following:

• A copy of the federal Schedule M-3 (Form 1065) and related attachments to the California Partnership Return of Income.
• A complete copy of the federal return.

The FTB will accept the federal Schedule M-3 (Form 1065) in a spreadsheet format if more convenient.
