What's New
Individual Income Tax Rate Change ( LB 754, 2023). For the 2025 taxable year, the highest rate for Nebraska taxable income is reduced to 5.20%. Affordable Housing Tax Credit Act (LB 182, 2025). The definition of taxpayer was updated to classify nonprofit corporations as taxpayers eligible for the credit. If an owner of a qualified project is a pass-through entity, the credit shall be allocated to some or all the partners, members, or shareholders of the owner of the qualified project. Any pass-through entity that receives an allocation of the credit, either from the owner of the qualified project or from another pass-through entity, may further allocate the tax credit among some or all of the partners, members, or shareholders, or transfer, sell, or assign all or a portion of the tax credit to a taxpayer. A pass-through entity may allocate the tax credit in any manner agreed to by its partners, members, or shareholders. A partner, member, or shareholder of a pass-through entity may transfer, sell, or assign all or part of his or her ownership interest, including his or her interest in the tax credits authorized. A taxpayer may transfer, sell, or assign all or a portion of the tax credit to another taxpayer. Bullion - Gain or Loss on the Sale or Exchange of Bullion ( LB 1317, 2024). Individuals, corporations, and fiduciaries must add to federal adjusted gross income or federal taxable income any net capital loss from the sale or exchange of gold or silver bullion to the extent included in federal adjusted gross income or federal taxable income. Individuals, corporations, and fiduciaries must subtract from federal adjusted gross income or federal taxable income any net capital gain from the sale or exchange of gold or silver bullion to the extent included in federal adjusted gross income or federal taxable income. The adjustments do not apply to a taxable distribution of a gain or loss on the sale of bullion from a retirement plan account. Cast and Crew Nebraska Act ( LB 937, 2023 and LB 650, 2024). Beginning with tax year 2025, a production company may be eligible to receive refundable income tax credits equal to 20% of the qualifying expenditures incurred by the production company directly attributable to a qualified production activity. The tax credit may be increased by an additional 15% if certain qualifications are met. Qualified production activity means a full-length film, made-for-television movie, television series of at least five episodes, or streaming television series. The total amount of tax credits allowed for each State fiscal year is $500,000. The maximum allowable tax credit claimed under the Act in any single taxable year for any qualified production activity that is a full-length film, made-for-television movie, television series of at least five episodes, or streaming television series shall not exceed $500,000. A production company must file an application for qualification with the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED) prior to the start of principal production photography to determine eligibility of the production activity. Applications are considered in the order they are received. If DED approves the application, it notifies the production company and issues a screen credit that can be used to meet the requirement for the tax credit. To receive tax credits, the production company must submit an application for the tax credit to DED after completing the qualified production activity. Applications are considered in the order they are received. If DED determines the application is complete and the production company qualifies for the tax credits, it will approve the application, notify the production company of the approval, and conduct an audit of each qualified production activity. Once the audit has been completed, DED will determine the value of the tax credit and issue a tax credit certification. A production company claims the tax credit by attaching the tax credit certification to its tax return for the taxable year in which the certificate was issued, or in the three taxable years immediately following the taxable year in which it was issued. The tax credits can be transferred to any Nebraska taxpayer at any time during the taxable year in which the certificate was issued, or in the three taxable years immediately following the year of issuance. The transferee must pay the transferor at least 85% of the value of the transferred credits in order to acquire the credits. For more information, visit Cast and Crew Nebraska Act (CCNA) - Nebraska Department of Economic Development. Child Care Tax Credit Act (LB 182, 2025). The definition of taxpayer under the Child Care Tax Credit Act (Act) was expanded to include insurance companies subject to premium and retaliatory taxes imposed by Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 44-150, 77-908, or 81-523 and financial institutions subject to the franchise tax imposed by Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 77-3801 to 77-3807.

Community Development Assistance Act (CDAA) (LB 650, 2025). Beginning January 1, 2026, the Community Development Assistance Act (CDAA) is reestablished and replaces the Creating High Impact Economic Futures (CHIEF) Act.

The nonrefundable credit equals the lesser of: u 50% of the value of the food donations or qualifying agricultural food donations made during the taxable year; or u $2,500. If the donation was deducted as a charitable contribution on the taxpayer's federal return, the donation must be added back in the determination of Nebraska adjusted gross income or Nebraska taxable income before the certified credit amount can be claimed. The total amount of approved tax credits is limited to $500,000 for State fiscal year 2025-2026. Credit requests received on the day the annual limit is exceeded will be prorated and no additional credit requests will be approved for such fiscal year. Foreign Adversarial Company (LB 644, 2025). A foreign adversarial company is ineligible to receive any benefits under an incentive program of the State of Nebraska. Credits distributed from a Foreign adversarial company are also ineligible for tax credit benefits. See DOR's website for additional information. Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Support Act (LB 937, 2024). Beginning with tax year 2025, employers may be eligible for any of three nonrefundable credits The three nonrefundable employer credits are: 1. Employers of one or more direct support professionals may apply for a nonrefundable income tax credit that equals $500 for each direct support professional who: u Is employed by the employer for at least six months during the taxable year; and u Worked at least 500 hours for the employer during the taxable year. 2.

Employers must first apply to the DOR to receive approval of the credit prior to claiming it on their income tax return. The total amount of credits that may be approved for all tax credits under this act (including the refundable credit for direct support professionals) is limited to the statutory limit established for each State fiscal year.
If an employer receiving the credit is a partnership, a limited liability company, an S corporation, or an estate or trust, the tax credit may be distributed in the same manner and proportion as the partner, member, shareholder, or beneficiary reports the partnership, limited liability company, S corporation, estate, or trust income. Nebraska Biodiesel Tax Credit Act (LB 208, 2025 and LB 650, 2025). The Nebraska Department of Revenue (DOR) may approve up to $1 million in tax credits in State fiscal year 2024-25 and each fiscal year thereafter. Credit requests received on the day the annual limit is exceeded will be prorated and no additional credit requests will be approved for such fiscal year. Nebraska Pregnancy Help Act (LB 937, 2024). Beginning with tax year 2025, individuals and entities that make cash contributions to eligible charitable organizations (approved PHOs) during the taxable year may qualify for a nonrefundable tax credit. Taxpayers must notify the approved PHO of their intent to make a contribution and the amount to be claimed as a tax credit. The approved PHO notifies DOR of the intended contribution. If tax credits are available, DOR will notify the approved PHO of the approved credit amount. Provided the contribution is timely made, the approved PHO should issue a receipt for the contribution made by the taxpayer to take the nonrefundable tax credit. The nonrefundable tax credit equals the lesser of: u The total amount of the contributions made to any approved PHO during the tax year and approved by DOR; or u 50% of the income tax liability of the taxpayer for such year. Any unused credit may be carried forward five years. The credit cannot be carried back. A taxpayer may only claim a credit on the portion of the contribution not claimed as a charitable contribution on their federal return. Married filing separate taxpayers may each claim one-half of the credit. When the contribution is made by a partnership, limited liability company, or a subchapter S corporation, the credit must be attributed to each partner, member, or shareholder in the same proportion used to report the partnership's, limited liability company's, or S corporation's income or loss. Any credit not used by an estate or trust may be attributed to each beneficiary in the same proportion used to report the beneficiary's income from the estate or trust. Nebraska Shortline Rail Modernization Act (LB 937, 2024 and LB 650, 2025). Beginning with tax year 2025, the Nebraska Shortline Rail Modernization Act provides a nonrefundable tax credit against income tax, franchise tax imposed by Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 77-3801 to 77-3807, and premiums taxes imposed by Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 77-907 to 77-918 for qualified maintenance expenditures incurred by a Class III railroad. The credit is 50% of the qualified shortline railroad maintenance expenditures incurred during the tax year by the Class III railroad. Qualified shortline railroad maintenance expenditures do not include expenditures used to generate a federal tax credit or expenditures funded by a federal grant. The amount of the credit cannot exceed an amount equal to $1,500 multiplied by the number of miles of railroad track owned or leased in the state by the applicant at the end of the taxable year. The total amount of tax credits allowed is limited to $500,000 in each State fiscal year. To receive the tax credit, the Class III railroad must submit an application to the DOR after incurring the relevant qualified shortline railroad maintenance expenditures. The application must be submitted no later than May 1 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the expenditures were incurred. DOR will issue a tax credit certificate to the Class III railroad with an approved application. The Class III railroad will claim the credit by attaching the certification to the tax return. Any unused credit is carried forward and can be applied against the tax liability for the next five taxable years immediately following the taxable year in which the credit was first allowed. The tax credits are transferable to another taxpayer by written agreement. No new applications for tax credits can be filed after December 31, 2033. Relocation Incentive Act (LB 1023, 2024 and LB 650, 2025). Beginning with tax year 2025, a refundable credit is available to employers who pay relocation expenses for a qualified employee. A qualified employee is an individual who moves to Nebraska for the purpose of accepting a position of employment and receives an annual salary within the statutory annual wage income range for the applicable tax year. The credit is equal to the lesser of: u 50% of the relocation expenses paid during the tax year; or u $5,000 for each qualified employee. Employers must first apply to the DOR to receive approval of the credit prior to claiming it on their income tax return. DOR may approve credits until the total amount of credits approved for the year reaches $1 million.
The refundable credit may be used to offset income taxes, franchise taxes imposed under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 77-3801 to 77-3807, and premium taxes, including retaliatory taxes under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 44-150, 77-908, or 81-523. The credit may be recaptured from the employer if the qualified employee moves out of Nebraska within two years after the employer claimed the credit. The recaptured amount is an underpayment of tax and is due and payable on the tax return due immediately following the qualified employee's loss of residency. Important Information for All Filers Purpose. The instructions in this booklet provide guidance in completing the most common Nebraska S corporation return of income forms and schedules. This booklet is intended to be useful to the greatest number of taxpayers. Nothing in these instructions supersedes, alters, or otherwise changes any provisions of the Nebraska tax code, regulations, rulings, or court decisions. We encourage the preparer of any Nebraska S Corporation Income Tax Return, Form 1120-SN, to review applicable Nebraska law regarding any issue that may have a material effect on this return. Nebraska law and other useful information may be found at revenue.nebraska.gov. Enter All Amounts as Whole Dollars. Do not include cents on the return or schedules. Do not change the pre-printed zeros in the cents column of the Form 1120-SN or schedules. Round any amount from 50 cents to 99 cents to the next higher dollar. Round any amount less than 50 cents to the next lower dollar. Penalties and Interest. Either or both may be imposed under the following conditions: u Failing to file a return and pay the tax due on or before the due date; u Failing to pay the tax due on or before the due date; u Failing to file an amended Nebraska income tax return to report changes made to your federal return; u Preparing or filing a fraudulent income tax return; or u Understating income on an income tax return. Filing a false or fraudulent Nebraska return is subject to penalty, even if the amounts reported are taken from your federal return. Unpaid tax is subject to interest at the statutory rate of 8% from the original due date to the date the tax is paid. See the DOR Interest Rate Assessed on State Taxes Revenue Ruling for applicable interest rates. Reporting Changes or Corrections. If information on a Nebraska S corporation return previously filed is incorrect, an Amended Nebraska S Corporation Income Tax Return, Form 1120-XSN must be filed. A Form 1120-XSN cannot be e-filed. When filing an amended return, remember: u Changes made by the IRS or another state must be reported to DOR within 60 days; u Please be sure to use the correct form for the tax year you are amending; u You must attach a copy of the related federal or other state amended return and all related schedules or other documentation to explain the changes shown on the amended Nebraska return; and u When an amended return reflects a reduction in tax due because Nebraska source income for its nonresident individual shareholders is reduced, the S corporation will not receive a refund. Individual shareholders may file a claim for refund resulting from the reduced Nebraska source income. Nebraska Extension of Time. An extension to file may only be obtained by: u Attaching a copy of a timely-filed Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File Certain Business Income Tax, Information, and Other Returns, Federal Form 7004, to the Nebraska return when filed; u Attaching a schedule to the Nebraska return listing the federal confirmation number and providing an explanation that the electronic request for automatic federal extension was not denied; or u Filing a Application for Extension of Time to File Nebraska Corporation, Fiduciary, or Partnership Return, Form 7004N, on or before the due date of the return, when you need to make a tentative Nebraska payment or when a federal extension is not being requested. When a federal extension of time has been granted, and additional time is necessary to file the Nebraska return, the Nebraska Form 7004N must be filed on or before the date the federal extension expires. Remember to attach proof of the federal extension to the Form 7004N.
Failure to attach the applicable extension document may result in a late filing penalty. An extension of time only extends the date to file the return. It does not extend the due date to pay the tax. Any tax not paid by the original due date is subject to interest. By timely requesting an extension of time to file your federal return using the Federal Form 7004, you are granted an automatic Nebraska extension for the same number of months granted by the IRS. When a federal extension of time has been granted and additional time is necessary to file the Nebraska return, the Nebraska Form 7004N must be filed on or before the date the federal extension expires. An extension of time cannot exceed a total of seven months after the original due date of the return. Accounting Methods. The accounting method used for federal income tax purposes must be used for Nebraska income tax purposes. A taxpayer may not change the accounting method used to report income in prior years unless the change is approved by the IRS. A copy of this approval must accompany the first return that shows the change in the method of accounting. Federal Return. A copy of the federal return and supporting schedules, as filed with the IRS, must be attached to this return. Estimated Income Tax Payments. Estimated income tax payments must be made by every S corporation that elected to be subject to Nebraska income tax, if the Nebraska income tax liability can reasonably be expected to exceed allowable credits by $400 or more. The requirement to make estimated payments applies to tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2024. For additional information see the 2026 Nebraska Corporation Estimated Income Tax Payment Voucher Booklet. Underpayment of Estimated Income Tax Penalty. An S corporation may owe a penalty if the amount of tax due, after allowable credits, is $400 or more. If the amount of tax due is $400 or more, the corporation must complete an Underpayment of Estimated Tax for Corporations, S corporations, or Partnerships, Form 2220N, to calculate any applicable penalty. Notification of Scam Text Messages. The Nebraska Department of Revenue (DOR) has been notified of scam text messages being sent asking individuals to click a link to receive their refund.

Visit ProtectTheGoodLife.Nebraska.gov. S corporations that did not elect to be subject to Nebraska income tax for 2025, must remit Nebraska income tax withholding for each nonresident individual shareholder who does not complete a Nebraska Nonresident Income Tax Agreement, Form 12N. For the purposes of Form 12N and the income tax withholding requirements, an individual includes a nonresident grantor of a grantor trust. Nonresident shareholders who sign the Form 12N agree to file a Nebraska income tax return and pay all taxes due directly to DOR. This relieves the S corporation from the obligation to remit income tax withholding on the shareholder's behalf. All signed and completed Forms 12N must be attached to the Form 1120-SN. If a Form 12N is not signed and completed for a nonresident individual shareholder, the amount to be paid is 5.20% of the nonresident shareholder's share of S corporation taxable income from Nebraska sources. The S corporation reports the amount of income tax remitted on behalf of each nonresident shareholder on the Nebraska Shareholder's Share of Nebraska Income, Deductions, Modifications, and Credits - Schedule K-1N. Attach each Nebraska Schedule K-1N to the S corporation return. Do not remit income tax for corporations, estates, or trusts (except grantor trusts) that are shareholders. Nebraska law does not require payment of income tax by an S corporation on behalf of these entities. Instead, these entities are required to file a Nebraska return. A nonresident individual shareholder may claim the amount of income tax remitted by the S corporation as a credit against his or her Nebraska income tax liability by attaching a copy of the Nebraska Schedule K-1N to the Nebraska Individual Income Tax Return, Form 1040N. Nonresident Shareholders
Nonresident individual shareholders do not have to file a Nebraska individual income tax return if: u Their only connection with the state is conducting business activities of the S corporation; and 1. The S corporation has remitted income tax from all the Nebraska income attributable to the nonresident's share of the S corporation's income; or 2. The S corporation remitted the pass-through entity tax (PTET) and the credit for the nonresident individual shareholder's share of the PTET remitted would fully satisfytheir Nebraska income tax liability. In lieu of filing a Nebraska Individual Income Tax Return, a nonresident shareholder may elect to allow the full amount of income tax withholding or the refundable PTET credit to be retained by the state. Any nonresident may still file a Form 1040N, and claim a refund if one is due. A nonresident shareholder is not relieved of its responsibility to file a Form 1040N if the S corporation has not remitted income tax withholding or PTET attributable to the nonresident's share of the S corporation's income. No Composite Filing. DOR does not allow filing "composite" income tax returns. S corporations with nonresident shareholders must either: u Obtain a signed and completed Form 12N from the nonresident individual shareholder; u Remit Nebraska income tax withholding on the nonresident shareholder's share of Nebraska income with Form 1120-SN; or u Make the PTET election and remit the PTET due. Nonresident Shareholder - No Income Tax Withholding Requirement. The S corporation is not required to remit income tax for any nonresident individual shareholder who completes and submits a Form 12N to the S corporation, before the original filing of the Form 1120-SN. The S corporation is also not required to remit income tax for any nonresident individual if it makes the PTET election. For purposes of the Form 12N, an individual includes a nonresident grantor of a grantor trust. A completed Form 12N must: u Include all the requested information; and u Be signed and dated by the shareholder or the shareholder's authorized representative (attach a copy of Power of Attorney, Form 33). Any nonresident shareholder who files Form 12N must file a Form 1040N. Failing to file the required Form 1040N may result in: u An assessment issued to the nonresident individual shareholder based on the information available to DOR; or u The loss, by the nonresident individual shareholder, of any current year Nebraska net operating or capital loss distributed from the S corporation. A Nebraska net operating or capital loss carryforward will not be allowed to offset Nebraska income until the Nebraska return for the loss year has been filed. Shareholder's Return. Both resident and nonresident shareholders are subject to the Nebraska income tax on their share of the S corporation income derived from sources within Nebraska. Reporting Nebraska Source Income to Shareholders. An S corporation must provide all shareholders with a Nebraska Schedule K-1N. See the Nebraska Schedule K-1N instructions for additional information. The income, loss, and deduction amounts reported on the Nebraska Schedule K-1N must be calculated in the same manner as income is distributed. When S corporations issue a Nebraska Schedule K-1N to shareholders, they must complete all distribution schedules such as Nebraska Employment and Investment Growth Act Credit Computation, Form 775N, Nebraska Advantage Act Incentive Computation, Form 312N, Nebraska Schedule PTET - Shareholders Share of Nebraska Pass-Through Entity Tax, Form 1120-SN, and ImagiNE Nebraska Act Incentive Computation, Form 1107N, in addition to reporting the distributed credits to the shareholders in Part C of the Schedule K-1N. Income Tax Withholding on Contractors. Construction contractors are required to withhold income tax at 5% on any payment or payments exceeding $600 made to their construction subcontractors that are not registered on the Nebraska Department of Labor's Contractor Registration Database. An S corporation, against whom the contractor income tax withholding was applied, must distribute the amount withheld to its shareholders if it does not make the PTET election. The total amount of income tax withheld from the S corporation must be distributed in the same manner as income. An S corporation that made the PTET election, may claim a credit for the withholding. For additional information see "Construction Contractors" section.
Community Development Assistance Act (CDAA) Credit. The Nebraska CDAA credit is allowable for contributions to approved projects of community betterment organizations recognized by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED). Attach the 2025 Nebraska Community Development Assistance Act Credit Computation, Form CDN to the Form 1120- SN. Each shareholder is allowed a share of the credit calculated by using the same method used to report income received from the S corporation. S corporations do not need to attach a copy of the Form 1099NTC. DOR will receive the Form 1099NTC information directly from DED. An S corporation that made the PTET election cannot use this credit to offset its PTET liability. More detailed information on this credit can be obtained by contacting: Nebraska Department of Economic Development 245 Fallbrook Blvd, Suite 002 Lincoln, NE 68521-4666 opportunity.nebraska.gov Beginning Farmer Credit. This credit is available to owners of agricultural assets, when the agricultural assets are rented to qualifying beginning farmers or livestock producers. Each shareholder eligible for the credit will receive a copy of the Statement of Nebraska Tax Credit, Form 1099 BFC, from the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. Each shareholder is allowed a share of the credit calculated by using the same method used to report income received from the S corporation. The Form 1099 BFC does not need to be filed with the shareholder's individual income tax return. S corporations do not need to attach a copy of the Form 1099 BFC. DOR will receive the Form 1099 BFC information directly from the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. School Readiness Tax Credit for providers. The credit may only be claimed after the application has been approved in writing by DOR. S corporations retaining the tax credit will enter the certificate number and the credit amount from your approved Form SR-3604 on the Form 1120- SN. S corporations distributing the tax credit, will include the certificate number and the credit amount on the Schedule K-1N. Attach a copy of the Schedule K-1N for each shareholder receiving a portion of the tax credit. The total amount distributed by the S corporation must be distributed in the same proportion as ordinary income. Opportunity Scholarships Act Credit for contributors. Enter the carryforward credit not used on the 2024 Form 1120-SN. An S corporation may only claim a credit on the portion of the contribution that was not deducted as a charitable contribution on its federal return. The total amount distributed by the S corporation must be distributed in the same proportion as the granting of the tax credit for the contributions was limited to 2024 tax year. The unused tax credits granted in 2024 may be carried forward five years from the year granted. Taxpayers must use the carryover credit in the earliest taxable year possible. Creating High Impact Economic Futures (CHIEF) credit. This nonrefundable credit is allowable for contributions to community betterment organization programs or projects certified for tax credit status by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development. The credit must be claimed on the tax return for the year in which the contribution was made. The granting of the tax credit for the contributions was limited to the 2025 tax year. The unused tax credits granted in 2025 may be carried forward five years from the year granted. Attach Form 1879NTC. For more details regarding this credit, contact: Nebraska Department of Economic Development 245 Fallbrook Blvd, Suite 002 Lincoln, NE 68521-4666 opportunity.nebraska.gov Form 3800N Credits. Nebraska provides several tax incentive credits that may be earned by entities conducting business in this state. S corporations must file tax incentive credit distribution forms including Forms 775N, 312N, 1107N, 544N, and 3800N Worksheet HBTC before credits can be allowed to individual shareholders. Attach a distribution schedule for Form 775N, Schedule II, Form 312N, Schedule II, Form 1107N, Form 544N, or 3800N Worksheet HBTC (that lists each shareholder, the shareholder's tax ID number, the income percentage, and each shareholder's distributed credits). The total amount distributed by the S corporation must be distributed in the same proportion as ordinary income. Use Tax An S corporation may be subject to use tax. An S corporation owes use tax when the proper sales tax has not been paid on purchases delivered into Nebraska. This often occurs when purchases are made from out-of-state, mail order, or Internet sellers. Use tax is also due when items purchased for resale are withdrawn from inventory for business or personal use. Credits Distributable to Shareholders
Example 1. The S corporation purchased a computer from a seller in South Dakota over the Internet for $1,570 plus $30 shipping and handling charges. Both charges are taxable. The computer is shipped to the S corporation in Scottsbluff, Nebraska and no tax is charged or collected by the seller. The state tax is $88 ($1,600 X 5.5%) and the local tax is $24 ($1,600 X 1.5%). The total use tax owed is $112 ($88 + $24 = $112). Example 2. A repair shop in Scottsbluff, Nebraska provides motor vehicle repair service. The repair shop also owns a tow truck used for towing customer motor vehicles needing repair. The shop purchases oil and oil filters, tax exempt, for resale using the Nebraska Resale or Exempt Sale Certificate, Form 13. When oil and oil filters are removed from sales tax-exempt inventory and used to change the oil in the business-owned tow truck, state and local use tax is due on the cost of the oil and oil filters. For additional information, see the Nebraska Use Tax Information Guide. Purpose of Form The Nebraska S Corporation Income Tax Return, Form 1120-SN, is not simply an informational return.

The Nebraska Schedule I is used to determine the amount of Nebraska source income (Form 1120-SN, line 5, Income Reported to Nebraska) received by an S corporation deriving income from both within and without Nebraska. Nebraska source income is determined by apportioning the S corporation income using a single, sales-only factor. Apportionment refers to the division of income between states by the use of a formula containing one or more apportionment factors. Sales Factor. The sales factor is a fraction. The numerator is the total sales of the S corporation in Nebraska during the taxable year. The denominator is the total sales of the S corporation everywhere during the taxable year. Total sales includes gross sales of real and tangible personal property less returns and allowances, and all other items of gross receipts, except income for the discharge of indebtedness, amounts received from hedging transactions involving intangible assets, and net gains from marketable securities held for investment. The sales factor on this schedule is rounded to six decimal places. It is entered as a percentage. For tax years beginning January 1, 2014 or after, a corporation may no longer use the costs of performance method of apportioning sales other than sales of tangible personal property except for a corporation operating as a communications company. For additional information, see the Nebraska Apportionment Factor - Sales or Gross Receipts section. An S corporation using an alternative method of apportionment must attach a copy of the Tax Commissioner's prior written approval of the alternative method. The alternative apportionment factor computation must be included. Enter the factor on line 2, Nebraska Schedule I. Note: Approval of an alternative method of apportionment is rare. If the S corporation is a partner in a partnership or joint venture, see Business Entity Regulation 24- 315, Sales Factor; Business Entities As Owners in a Partnership or Joint Venture. If an S corporation is a member of a unitary group which includes a C corporation, the apportionment factor for the S corporation will be the apportionment factor as determined for the unitary group. This factor will be applied to the income of the S corporation. Separate returns must be filed for the S corporation and the C corporation. An S corporation that operates a trucking business and has income from both within and without this state, must compute its sales factor in accordance with Business Income Tax Regulation 24-343, Special Apportionment Rules; All Tax Years; Trucking Companies. The method of computing the sales factor must be consistent with prior tax years and with the S corporation's filings in other states. If the S corporation modifies the basis for including or excluding gross receipts in the sales factor used in returns for prior years, the 2025 return must disclose the nature and extent of the modification. If the S corporation files returns with other states that are not uniform in the inclusion or exclusion of gross receipts, the Form 1120-SN filed with DOR must disclose the nature and extent of the variance.

Instructions
Purpose. The Nebraska Schedule K-1N is used by the S corporation to report each shareholder's share of the entity's Nebraska income, deductions, modi fications, and credits. The Nebraska Schedule K-1N is also used by each shareholder to complete their Nebraska tax return. The S corporation must provide a Nebraska Schedule K-1N to each shareholder. A copy of every Nebraska Schedule K-1N must be submitted with the Form 1120-SN. Enter the shareholder's share of the distributed Form 3800N credits. When S corporations issue Nebraska Schedules K-1N to shareholders, they must also: complete distribution schedules such as Forms 775N, 312N, 1107N, 544N and report the distributed credit amount to the shareholders on line 20 of the Schedule K-1N. Include on the Schedule K-1N, line 20, the distributed credits that have been certified prior to claiming on a Nebraska income tax return. The certificate number of the approved credit must be entered for the following: Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Support Act - Employer credit (IIDDSA); Nebraska Shortline Rail Modernization Act (NSR); Renewable Chemical Production (RCP); Nebraska Higher Blend Tax Credit (HBTC); Nebraska Biodiesel Tax Credit (BDTC); and Cast and Crew Nebraska Act (CCNA). Use line 25 on the Schedule K-1N to distribute the School Readiness Tax Credit for Providers. Foreign Adversarial Company. Indicate whether or not the taxpayer is a foreign adversarial company or claiming credits from a business that is, or is owned in whole or part, by a foreign adversarial company , as defined by Neb. Rev. Stat. § 77-3,114 . A foreign adversarial company is ineligible to receive incentive benefits. Credits distributed from a foreign adversarial company are ineligible for tax credit benefits. If the answer is No, continue with the remainder of the form. If the answer is Yes because the taxpayer is a foreign adversarial company, do not distribute credits on lines 18 through 20. If the answer is Yes because the taxpayer is claiming credits from a business that is, or is owned in whole or in part, by a foreign adversarial company , you may not claim any credits from the foreign adversarial company on lines 18 through 20. Only enter credits from entities that are not a foreign adversarial company on lines 18 through 20. Failing to answer will result in denial or delay in processing the distributed credits. Foreign adversarial company means a company that: • Is organized under the laws of a foreign adversary; • Has its principal place of business within a foreign adversary; • Is owned in whole or in part, operated, or controlled by the government of a foreign adversary; or • Is a subsidiary or parent of any company that meets any of the above criteria. Foreign adversaries as defined under 15 C.F.R. 791.4, as such regulation existed on April 1, 2025 are: • The People's Republic of China, including the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Macau Special Administrative Region (China); • Republic of Cuba (Cuba); • Islamic Republic of Iran (Iran); • Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea); • Russian Federation (Russia); and • Venezuelan politician Nicolás Maduro (Maduro Regime). Note: A foreign adversarial company related credits do not include the Nebraska income tax withheld, contractor tax withholding, or the PTET credit. The withholding and the PTET credits are not impacted by a relationship with a foreign adversarial company and may be claimed if applicable as they represent payments made by the partner named on the Schedule K-1N. Additional information can be found at Foreign Adversarial Company. Complete the S Corporation and Shareholder Information Shareholder's Name and Mailing Address.
