 Do business in Wisconsin,
 Have at least $1,000 of gross income from an unrelated trade or business for federal income tax purposes, and  Must file federal Form 990-T or 4720 to report such unrelated trade or business income.

 Have income from Wisconsin sources, such as business transacted or property located in Wisconsin,  Have at least $1,000 of gross income from an unrelated trade or business for federal income tax purposes, and  Must file federal Form 990-T or 4720.

  • Exempt organizations engaged in buying or selling lottery prizes if the winning tickets were originally bought in Wisconsin.

"Gross income" of a manufacturing, merchandising, or mining business is the total receipts or sales, less the cost of goods sold, plus the gross income from other sources that is includable in unrelated business taxable income.
"Doing business in this state." The definition of "Doing business in this state," sec. 71.22(1r), Wis. Stats, includes regularly selling products or services of any kind or nature to customers in Wisconsin that receive the product or service in Wisconsin; regularly soliciting business from potential customers in Wisconsin; regularly performing services outside Wisconsin for which the benefits are received in Wisconsin; regularly engaging in transactions with customers in Wisconsin that involve intangible property and result in receipts flowing to the taxpayer from within Wisconsin; and holding loans secured by real or tangible personal property located in Wisconsin. "Regular" and "regularly" mean 15 or more days of activity. Fifteen days of activity means one person for 15 days or 15 persons for one day, or any combination of persons and days that results in at least 15 person-days of activity. "Days of activity" include any day, or portion thereof, upon which business activity took place. "Days of activity" do not include travel days, holidays, or weekends, unless business activities were conducted on those days.
Organizations Not Required to File. The following organizations are not required to file a Wisconsin corporation franchise or income tax return:

  • Exempt organizations that aren't subject to tax on unrelated business taxable income under IRC section 511 and aren't required to file federal Form 990-T, except those with income realized from the sale of or purchase and subsequent sale or redemption of lottery prizes if the winning tickets were originally bought in Wisconsin.
  • Employee benefit plans established by an employer engaged in or affecting interstate commerce or by an employee organization that represents employees engaged in or affecting interstate commerce. This exception doesn't apply to government plans, church plans not electing under the vesting, etc., provisions, worker's compensation plans, non-U.S. plans primarily for nonresident aliens, and "excess benefit plans."
  • The State of Wisconsin, including the University of Wisconsin System, or any county, village, school district, or other political unit of the State of Wisconsin.
  • Credit unions.

# When and Where to File

Generally, an exempt organization must file Form 4T by the 15th day of the 5th month following the close of its taxable year. However, an employees' trust defined in IRC section 401(a), an IRA, and an MSA must file Form 4T by the 15th day of the 4th month following the close of the taxable year. If a return is filed late, without an extension, the exempt organization may be subject to penalties and interest.
Extensions. If you are requesting an extension of time to file your federal income tax return, the following treatment applies:

  • For exempt organizations taxable as corporations, any extension allowed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for filing the federal return automatically extends the Wisconsin due date to 30 days after the federal extended due date. You don't need to submit either a copy of the federal extension or an application for a Wisconsin extension to the department by the original due date of your return. However, you must file a copy of the federal extension with the Wisconsin return that you file.
  • For exempt organizations taxable as trusts, any extension allowed by the IRS for filing the federal return automatically extends the Wisconsin due date to the federal due date. You must file a copy of the federal extension with the Wisconsin return that you file.
  • Disaster Relief Extension. If you are filing under extension because of a federal or state disaster, include a statement indicating which disaster extension you are using and attach it to your return. Additional information on disaster areas can be found here: revenue.wi.gov/Pages/FAQS/pcs-extensn.aspx#ext5

# Filing Return

If you file your return on paper, follow these mailing instructions carefully:

  • Do not fasten, staple, or bind the pages of your return. Use paper clips instead.
  • If you are submitting multiple returns, separate them with colored separator sheets.
  • Use the mailing address shown on the form.

# Period Covered by Return

The return must cover the same period as the exempt organization's federal business income tax return, Form 990-T.
A 2025 Wisconsin return must be filed by an exempt organization for calendar year 2025 or a fiscal year that begins in 2025. A fiscal year may end only on the last day of a month. The period covered by the return can't exceed 12 months.
Example: Corporation A has a fiscal year beginning March 1, 2025, and ending February 29, 2026. Corporation A files a 2025 Form 4T for the period of March 1, 2025, through February 29, 2026.
However, exempt organizations reporting on a 52-53 week period for federal tax purposes must file on the same reporting period for Wisconsin. A 52-53 week taxable year is deemed to begin on the first day of the calendar month beginning nearest to the first day of the 52-53 week taxable year. The taxable year is deemed to end on the last day of the calendar month closest to the last day of the 52-53 week taxable year for purposes of due dates, extensions, and assessments of interest and penalties.
Any change in accounting period made for federal purposes must also be made for Wisconsin purposes. For the first taxable year for which the change applies, file with the Wisconsin return a copy of the IRS's notice of approval of accounting period change if such approval is required or an explanation of the change if the IRS's approval isn't required.

# Accounting Methods and Elections

In computing unrelated business taxable income, the method of accounting must be the same method used in computing federal unrelated business taxable income. However, if the method used for federal purposes isn't authorized under the IRC in effect for Wisconsin, use a method authorized under the IRC in effect for Wisconsin.
Change in Accounting Method. A change in accounting method made for federal purposes must also be made for Wisconsin purposes, unless the change isn't authorized under the IRC in effect for Wisconsin. Adjustments required federally as a result of a change made while the exempt organization is subject to Wisconsin taxation must also be made for Wisconsin purposes, except in the last year that an exempt organization is subject to taxation by Wisconsin it must take into account all remaining adjustments required.
For the first taxable year for which the change applies, file with the Wisconsin return either a copy of the application for change in accounting method filed with the IRS and copy of the IRS's consent, if applicable, or an explanation of the change if the IRS's approval isn't required.
Elections. As explained above, an exempt organization can't make different elections for federal and Wisconsin purposes with respect to accounting periods and accounting methods, unless the federal method isn't permitted under the IRC in effect for Wisconsin. In situations where an exempt organization has an option under the IRC and the IRS doesn't consider that option to be a method of accounting, a different election may be made for Wisconsin than that made for federal purposes. If federal law specifies the manner or time period in which an election must be made, those requirements also apply for Wisconsin purposes. For more information, see Wisconsin Tax Bulletin 214 (July 2021, page 8).
If different elections are made, adjustments are required on the Wisconsin return to account for any differences.
Exempt organizations enter such adjustments on Part 1 or Part 2.

# Payment of Estimated Tax

The franchise or income tax and economic development surcharge must be paid by the 15th day of the 5th month (15th day of the 4th month for employees' trusts, IRAs, and MSAs) following the close of the taxable period, regardless of the due date of the return. Exempt organizations may be required to make quarterly estimated payments to prepay their franchise or income tax and economic development surcharge.
If the total of an exempt organization's franchise or income tax and economic development surcharge due is $500 or more, it generally must make quarterly estimated tax payments. Corporations should use Wisconsin Form Corp-ES or make payment by electronic funds transfer, and trusts should use Form 1-ES or make payment by electronic funds transfer. Failure to make required estimated tax payments may result in an interest charge.
CAUTION: An extension for filing the return doesn't extend the time to pay the franchise or income tax. Interest will be charged on the tax and surcharge not paid by the original due date. You can avoid interest charges during the extension period by paying the tax and surcharge due by the original due date. Submit your payment with Wisconsin Form Corp-ES, Corporation Estimated Tax Voucher.
Quick Refund. An exempt corporation that overpaid its estimated tax may apply for a refund before filing its tax return if its overpayment is (1) at least 10% of the expected Wisconsin tax liability and (2) at least $500. To apply, file Wisconsin Form 4466W, Corporation or Pass-Through Entity Application for Quick Refund of Overpayment of Estimated Tax, after the end of the taxable year and before the exempt corporation files its tax return. Do not file Form 4466W at the same time as your tax return.
An exempt corporation that has a tax due when filing its tax return as a result of receiving a "quick refund" will be charged 12% annual interest on the amount of unpaid tax from the date the refund is issued to the earlier of the 15th day of the 5th month (15th day of the 4th month for employees' trusts, IRAs, and MSAs) after the close of the taxable year or the date the tax liability is paid. Any tax that remains unpaid after the unextended due date of the tax return continues to be subject to 18% or 12% annual interest, as appropriate.

# Economic Development Surcharge

The economic development surcharge applies to corporations having gross receipts from all unrelated trade or business activities of $4 million or more during the taxable year. Corporations that must file Wisconsin franchise or income tax returns must pay the economic development surcharge, with certain exceptions. The surcharge doesn't apply to:

  • Exempt corporations that have less than $4 million of gross receipts from all unrelated trade or business activities for federal income tax purposes.
  • "Gross receipts from all unrelated trade or business activities" includes gross receipts, gross sales, the gross sales price from the disposition of capital assets and business assets, gross rents, gross income from unrelated debtfinanced property, gross interest, annuities, royalties, and rents from controlled organizations, gross investment income, gross exploited exempt activity income, gross advertising income, gross receipts passed through from other entities, and all other receipts that are included in unrelated business taxable income for Wisconsin income tax purposes.

For more information, refer to Publication 400, Wisconsin's Economic Development Surcharge.

# Information Returns

If an exempt organization pays $600 or more in rents, royalties, or certain nonwage compensation to one or more individuals, the exempt organization must file an information return to report those payments. You may use Wisconsin Form 9b, Miscellaneous Income, or you may use federal Forms 1099 or 1099-NEC instead of Form 9b. For more information, see the Form 9b instructions.

# Wisconsin Use Tax

Exempt organizations that don't hold a Wisconsin Certificate of Exempt Status (CES#) and purchase taxable tangible personal property, certain coins and stamps, certain leased properties affixed to real estate, certain digital goods, or taxable services for storage, use, or consumption in Wisconsin without payment of a sales or use tax may owe Wisconsin state, county, or stadium use tax and be required to file a Wisconsin sales and use tax return.

# Penalties for Not Filing or Filing Incorrect Returns

If you don't file a Form 4T that you are required to file, or if you file an incorrect Form 4T due to negligence or fraud, interest and penalties may be assessed against you. The interest rate on delinquent taxes is 18% per year. Civil penalties may be as much as 100% of the amount of tax not reported on the return. Criminal penalties for filing a false return include a fine of up to $10,000 and imprisonment. Further, if you fail to disclose reportable transactions, you may be subject to the penalties described in sec. 71.81, Wis. Stats., including a $30,000 penalty for failure to disclose a listed transaction.

# Conformity With Internal Revenue Code and Exceptions

Other Exceptions to Internal Revenue Code
The following federal provisions in effect as of December 31, 2024, are specifically excluded for Wisconsin franchise and income tax purposes:

# Depreciation and Bonus Depreciation

For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014, for purposes of computing depreciation, depletion, and amortization, the Internal Revenue Code means the federal Internal Revenue Code in effect on January 1, 2014.
The provision that property required to be depreciated for taxable year 1986 under the Internal Revenue Code as amended to December 31, 1980, to continue to be depreciated under the Internal Revenue Code as amended to December 31, 1980, is limited to taxable years beginning before January 1, 2014.
Wisconsin has not adopted federal bonus depreciation provisions. For Wisconsin purposes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization is computed based on the Internal Revenue Code in effect on January 1, 2014.

# Section 179 Expense

Wisconsin has adopted federal section 179 expense provisions. For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014, sections 179, 179A, 179B, 179C, 179D, and 179E of the Internal Revenue Code, related to expensing of depreciable business assets, apply for Wisconsin tax purposes. "Internal Revenue Code" means the federal Internal Revenue Code in effect for the year in which the property is placed in service.

Accounting for Differences
Adjustments may be necessary to account for differences between federal and Wisconsin taxable income because of the items described above. Exempt organizations show these adjustments on Part 1 and Part 2. See the instructions for line 1 for details.

# Line-by-Line Instructions for Form 4T

You must complete pages 1 and 2 of Form 4T and make appropriate entries on page 3. Do not enter "See attached" instead of completing the entry spaces. If more space is needed, use separate sheets using the same size and format as the printed forms.
Round cents to the nearest whole dollar by eliminating amounts less than 50 cents and increasing amounts from 50 cents through 99 cents to the next higher dollar.
The name and address information should be written on single lines. Do not stack the information on the lines. If more room is needed, abbreviate where possible.
Do not write "None" on the amount lines if there is not an entry for the lines. Instead, leave the lines blank.
Caution: Federal line numbers referred to on Form 4T and in these instructions may change if the IRS makes changes to their forms after this form is finalized.

# Items A Through K

Before completing items A through K, fill in the exempt organization's 2025 taxable year at the top of the form and the organization's name and address. If the organization dissolved, enter the date of dissolution as the ending date of the 2025 taxable year.

■ Item A. Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions Number - Certain types of businesses must register with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (DFI). Fill in the number DFI assigned you when you registered. You can search for your DFI number on DFI's website at WI Corporate Records Search. For information on registering with DFI, visit DFI's website at DFI Business Entity Frequently Asked Questions.
■ Item B. Federal Employer Identification Number - Enter the exempt organization's federal employer identification number (EIN). If you haven't yet applied for a federal EIN, you may do so by filing federal Form SS-4 with the IRS, calling the IRS's toll-free number at (800) 829-4933, or applying online at http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-&-Self-Employed/Apply-for-an-Employer-Identification-Number-(EIN)-Online.
■ Item C. Business Activity (NAICS) Code - Enter the organization's principal business activity code, based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), from your federal return. If your federal return is a consolidated return, go to census.gov/naics/ to find the NAICS code for your principal business activity.
■ Item D. State and Year of Organization - Enter the 2-letter postal abbreviation for the state (or name of the foreign country) under whose laws the organization was formed or organized and the year of formation or organization.
■ E1. Amended Return - Check here if this is an amended return. Include Schedule AR detailing the lines you are changing and any supporting form or schedule.
■ E2. First Return - Check here if this is the first year that you are filing a Wisconsin return because the corporation wasn't in existence or didn't do business in Wisconsin in prior years.
■ E3. Final Return - If the corporation ceased to exist or withdrew from Wisconsin during the year and will no longer be filing Form 4T, check here and submit a copy of your plan of liquidation and federal Form 966 if the corporation liquidated.
Note: checking this box will not close all your accounts with the department; only the corporation account will close.
■ E4-5. Short Period - Indicate that a short period return is being filed due to a change in the corporation's accounting period or a stock purchase or sale by checking the appropriate line.
Be sure to use the correct year's tax return when filing for a short period. If the tax returns are not yet available, wait until the returns become available and file under extension. For example, if a taxpayer has a short period from January 1, 2026 through February 28, 2026, the 2026 Form 4T will not be ready by July 15, 2026 (unextended due date for a February 28 year-end). Wisconsin law follows the federal extension provisions but provides for an additional 30-day extension beyond the federal extension, so filing under extension will allow the correct years return to be filed when the 2026 Form 4T is available (typically November 1). Note that an extension does not extend the time to pay a balance due. To avoid interest charges, pay the amount due by the unextended due date.
■ Item F. Extended Due Date - Check here if the exempt organization has an extension of time to file its Wisconsin return and enter the extended due date.
Disaster Relief Extension. If you are filing under extension because of a federal or state disaster, include a statement indicating which disaster extension you are using and attach it to your return. Additional information on disaster areas can be found here: revenue.wi.gov/Pages/FAQS/pcs-extensn.aspx#ext5 ■ Item G. Schedule RT Required - Check here if the exempt organization is filing Schedule RT, Wisconsin Related Entity Expenses Disclosure Statement, with its return. Schedule RT is generally required if the exempt organization pays, accrues, or incurs more than $100,000 of expenses to a related person or entity in the taxable year. See the Schedule RT instructions for details of the requirement to file Schedule RT.
■ Item H. Name Change - Check here if the organization changed its name during the taxable year.

■ Item I. Internal Revenue Service Adjustment - If an organization's federal tax return is adjusted by the IRS and the adjustments affect the Wisconsin net tax payable, the amount of a Wisconsin credit, a Wisconsin net business loss carryforward, or a Wisconsin capital loss carryforward, you must report the adjustments to the Department of Revenue within 180 days after they become final.
Send a copy of the final federal audit reports and any associated amended Wisconsin returns to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, PO Box 8908, Madison, WI 53708-8908. If submitting a federal audit report without an amended return, mail it to the Audit Bureau, Wisconsin Department of Revenue, PO Box 8906, Madison, WI 53708-8906. Don't include these items with the tax return for the current year.
■ Item J. Type of Organization - Check the line that indicates how the organization will be taxed. Failure to check the proper box may result in the incorrect processing of your return.
■ Item K. Name of Trustee - Enter the name of the trustee if the organization is taxable as a trust.
NOTE: Lines 1 through 13 are only for exempt organizations taxable as corporations. Exempt organizations taxable as trusts must skip lines 1 through 13 and begin on line 14.

Instructions for how to complete Part 2 - Subtractions:

  • Line 1. Interest Income - Enter interest and dividend income, less related expenses, received on obligations and certain securities of the United States government that was included in federal unrelated business taxable income and is exempt from state income taxation.

  • Line 3. Net Operating Loss Carryforward - Enter the amount of any Wisconsin net operating loss carryforward.

The "addback" is reported on Part 1, line 5. After the corporation makes this addition modification, it completes Part II of Schedule RT to determine if it is eligible for a deduction for any of the amount added back. The corporation then makes a subtraction modification on Part 2, line 4, for the amount it is eligible to deduct. See the Schedule RT instructions for details of the conditions necessary to claim this subtraction.
If the corporation is a partner, member, or beneficiary of a pass-through entity, also include the amount of modification included on line 22a of Schedule 3K-1 and line 14a of Schedule 2K-1, as applicable.

  • Line 6. Transitional Adjustments - Transitional adjustments are not applicable for organizations taxable as corporations.

■ Line 5. Nonapportionable and Separately Accounted Income -Nonapportionable Income - Form N:
Nonapportionable income is that income which is allocable directly to a particular state. It includes income or loss derived from the sale of nonbusiness real or tangible personal property or from rentals and royalties from nonbusiness real or tangible personal property. This income is assigned to the state where the property is located.
All income that is realized from the sale of or purchase and subsequent sale or redemption of lottery prizes if the winning tickets were originally bought in Wisconsin shall be allocated to Wisconsin.
Except for income from lottery prizes described above, the intangible income of a personal holding company is nonapportionable and is assigned to the state of incorporation.
Total nonapportionable income (loss) is removed from total company net income before the apportionment percentage is applied using Form N. The Wisconsin nonapportionable income (loss) is then combined with the Wisconsin apportionable income to arrive at Wisconsin net income.
Separate Accounting - Forms C and N:
If using the separate accounting method, don't complete lines 5 through 9. An exempt organization engaged in a nonunitary business in and outside Wisconsin must determine the amount of income attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting. The exempt organization uses Form C, Wisconsin Allocation and Separate Accounting Data, to compute the amount attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting and uses Form N, Wisconsin Nonapportionable, Separately Accounted, and Separately Apportioned Income, to report the separate accounting amount. This is because the income determined under separate accounting from Form C, line 16 is entered on Form N, line 6. A nonunitary business is one in which the operations in Wisconsin aren't dependent upon or contributory to the operations outside Wisconsin. Under separate accounting, the exempt organization must keep separate records of the sales, cost of sales, and expenses for the Wisconsin business.
■ Lines 6 through 8. Apportionment Data - If using the apportionment method, complete one of the following schedules to compute the apportionment percentage:

  • Schedule A-07, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Air Carriers,
  • Schedule A-08, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Broadcasters,
  • Schedule A-09, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Railroads,
  • Schedule A-10, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Pipeline Companies, or
  • Schedule A-11, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Air Freight Forwarders Affiliated with a Direct

■ Line 9. Wisconsin nonapportionable and Separately Accounted Income -Nonapportionable Income - Form N:
Nonapportionable income is that income which is allocable directly to a particular state. It includes income or loss derived from the sale of nonbusiness real or tangible personal property or from rentals and royalties from nonbusiness real or tangible personal property. This income is assigned to the state where the property is located.
All income that is realized from the sale of or purchase and subsequent sale or redemption of lottery prizes if the winning tickets were originally bought in Wisconsin shall be allocated to Wisconsin.
Except for income from lottery prizes described above, the intangible income of a personal holding company is nonapportionable and is assigned to the state of incorporation.
Total nonapportionable income (loss) is removed from total company net income before the apportionment percentage is applied using Form N. The Wisconsin nonapportionable income (loss) is then combined with the Wisconsin apportionable income to arrive at Wisconsin net income.
Separate Accounting - Forms C and N:
If using the separate accounting method, don't complete lines 5 through 9. An exempt organization engaged in a nonunitary business in and outside Wisconsin must determine the amount of income attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting. The exempt organization uses Form C, Wisconsin Allocation and Separate Accounting Data, to compute the amount attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting and uses Form N, Wisconsin Nonapportionable, Separately Accounted, and Separately Apportioned Income, to report the separate accounting amount. This is because the income determined under separate accounting from Form C, line 16 is entered on Form N, line 6. A nonunitary business is one in which the operations in Wisconsin aren't dependent upon or contributory to the operations outside Wisconsin. Under separate accounting, the exempt organization must keep separate records of the sales, cost of sales, and expenses for the Wisconsin business.
■ Line 11. Gross Tax - Enter 7.9% of the Wisconsin unrelated business taxable income reported on line 10.
■ Line 12. Nonrefundable Credits - Enter any nonrefundable credits the exempt organization is claiming from Schedule CR. However, you may not offset these credits against the economic development surcharge. If you are claiming more than one credit, you must claim the credits in a specific order. To receive any credits, the taxpayer must include the appropriate credit computation schedules. See the Schedule CR instructions for details.
If you are using credits carried forward from prior years or have current year unused credits that are being carried forward, complete and include a Schedule CF for each credit.
To determine if the organization qualifies for any credits, see Publication 123, Business Tax Incentives, which is available on the Department of Revenue's web site at revenue.wi.gov/html/taxpubs.html.

# Lines 14 Through 23 - Organizations Taxable as Trusts

■ Line 14. Federal Unrelated Business Taxable Income - Enter the amount from federal Form 990-T, Part I, line

  1. However, if the trust is required to file Form 4720, enter the amount of federal unrelated business taxable income as computed in the supporting schedules to Form 4720. The amount on line 14 should be after applying the net operating loss deduction and special deductions.

CAUTION: If any changes to the Internal Revenue Code or differences described earlier affect the computation of federal unrelated business taxable income but don't apply for Wisconsin purposes, account for the differences on Parts 1 and 2 on page 3.
■ Line 15. Trust Additions - Federal unrelated business taxable income on Form 4T, line 14, may include items that aren't deductible for Wisconsin tax purposes, or it may not include items that are taxable for Wisconsin tax purposes. Complete Part 1 on page 3 and enter the total to account for these differences.

  • Lines 5. Related Entity Expenses - An exempt organization taxable as a trust must make an addition modification to "add back" management fees and intangible, interest or rental expenses paid, accrued, or incurred to a related entity. These expenses must generally also be disclosed on Schedule RT. See the Schedule RT instructions for further details of the expenses required to be disclosed on Schedule RT and added back to income on Part 1.

After the trust makes this addition modification, the trust uses Part II of Schedule RT to determine if it is eligible for a deduction for any of the amount added back. The trust then makes a subtraction modification on Part 2 in the amount it is eligible to deduct.
If the trust is a partner, member, beneficiary, or shareholder of a pass-through entity, also include the amount of modification included on line 22a of Schedule 3K-1; line 14a of Schedule 2K-1; and line 18a of Schedule 5K-1, as applicable.

# Changing an Election to Apply a Refund to Estimated Tax

Sections 71.09(7) and 71.29(3), Wis. Stats., provide an election to apply all or a portion of a claimed refund to the following year's estimated tax payments, if the refund has not been paid or applied elsewhere (for example, against a delinquent tax liability).
An election to apply a refund to estimated tax may be changed to:

  • request payment of the refund,
  • credit the refund against an amended return tax liability for any year, or
  • credit the refund against a notice of amount due for any year.

For individual and fiduciary income tax, notification of a change in election must occur on or before the due date of the final estimated tax installment payment (January 15, 2026, for a calendar-year filer).
For corporation franchise and income tax, notification of a change in election must occur on or before the unextended due date of the following year's tax return or before the following year's tax return is filed, whichever is earlier.
The change in election must be in writing. You can file an amended return or send an email, fax, or letter to:
Fiduciaries:

  • DOREstateandFiduciary@revenue.wi.gov
  • Fax: (608) 267-0834
  • Wisconsin Department of Revenue PO Box 8906 Madison WI 53708-8906 Corporations:
  • DORFranchise@revenue.wi.gov
  • Fax: (608) 267-0834
  • Wisconsin Department of Revenue PO Box 8906 Madison WI 53708-8906 If a timely election to move the estimated payments is not made, any tax due on the return is subject to interest at 12% per year from the unextended due date of the return until the date paid. Interest is due regardless of whether the original amount of estimated payments exceeded the tax due on the return because the estimated payments were moved to the next taxable year.

# Amended Returns

If this is an amended 2025 return, but you have already filed your original 2026 return, enter the overpayment that you claimed as a credit on your 2026 return from your previously filed original or amended 2025 return. Otherwise, you may allocate the overpayment from line 38 between line 39 and line 40 as you choose.
■ Line 41. Gross Receipts - Enter the "gross receipts from all unrelated trade or business activities" including gross receipts, gross sales, the gross sales price from the disposition of capital assets and business assets, gross rents, gross income from unrelated debt-financed property, gross interest, annuities, royalties, and rents from controlled organizations, gross investment income, gross exploited exempt activity income, gross advertising income, gross receipts passed through from other entities, and all other receipts that are included in unrelated business taxable income for Wisconsin tax purposes.

# Additional Information, Signatures, and Supplemental Schedules

■ Additional Information Required - Provide the requested information and answer the questions in items 1 through 5.
■ Third Party Designee - If you want to allow a tax preparer or tax preparation firm, or any other person you choose to discuss your 2025 tax return with the Department of Revenue, check "Yes" in the "Third Party Designee" area of your return. Also, fill in the designee's name, phone number, and any five digits the designee chooses as their personal identification number (PIN). If you check "Yes," you are authorizing the department to discuss with the designee any questions that may arise during the processing of your return. You are also authorizing the designee to:

  • Give the department any information missing from your return,
  • Call the department for information about the processing of your return or the status of your refund or payment(s), and
  • Respond to certain department notices about math errors, offsets, and return preparation.

You are not authorizing the designee to receive any refund check, bind you to anything (including any additional tax liability), or otherwise represent you before the department. If you want to expand the designee's authorization, you must submit Form A-222 (Power of Attorney). The authorization will automatically end no later than the due date (without regard to extensions) for filing your 2026 tax return.
■ Signatures - An officer or trustee of the exempt organization must sign the form at the bottom of page 2. If the return is prepared by someone other than an employee of the exempt organization, the individual who prepared the return must sign the form, by hand, in the space provided for the preparer's signature and furnish the preparing firm's federal employer identification number. A self-employed individual must enter "PTIN" and their preparer tax identification number in the space for the preparer's federal employer identification number.

■ Supplemental Schedules - Include the following items as supplemental schedules to your Form 4T:

  • Your federal Form 990-T or 4720 with all supporting schedules.
  • A list of your solely owned LLCs (complete and include Schedule DE with your return).
  • Any extension of time to file your return.
  • Supporting schedules for Form 4T (supporting schedules that are not department-prescribed forms may be submitted as .pdf documents with electronic returns).

If you are filing Form 4T on paper, do not staple, fasten, or bind these supplemental schedules to your return.
Use paper clips instead.

Wisconsin Income of Multistate Organizations

# Who Must Use Apportionment

Under the apportionment method, an exempt organization shows all income and deductions from unrelated trade or business activities for the organization as a whole and then assigns a part to Wisconsin according to a formula that determines Wisconsin unrelated business taxable income.
An exempt organization engaged in unrelated trade or business activities in and outside Wisconsin is required to report a portion of its total unrelated business taxable income to Wisconsin using the apportionment method if its Wisconsin operations are a part of a unitary business, unless the department gives permission to use separate accounting. To use the apportionment method, an exempt organization must have unrelated trade or business activity sufficient to create nexus in Wisconsin and at least one other state or foreign country.
A unitary business is one that operates as a unit and can't be segregated into independently operating divisions or branches. The operations are integrated, and each division or branch is dependent upon or contributory to the operation of the business as a whole. It isn't necessary that each division or branch operating in Wisconsin contribute to the activities of all divisions or branches outside Wisconsin.
To use the apportionment method, an exempt organization must have business activity sufficient to create nexus in Wisconsin and at least one other state or foreign country. "Nexus" means that an exempt organization's business activity is of such a degree that the state or foreign country has jurisdiction to impose an income tax or franchise tax measured by net income.
Under Public Law 86-272, a state can't impose an income tax or franchise tax based on net income on an exempt organization selling tangible personal property if the organization's only activity in the state is the solicitation of orders, which orders are approved outside the state and are filled by delivery from a point outside the state.

# What Is the Apportionment Percentage

For unitary, multistate businesses (except direct air carriers, air freight forwarders affiliated with a direct air carrier, motor carriers, railroads, pipeline companies, financial institutions, brokers-dealers, investment advisers, investment companies, underwriters, and telecommunications companies whose incomes are apportioned by special rules of the department), the apportionment percentage is determined by the ratio of Wisconsin sales to total company sales.
For most companies, the apportionment percentage is computed on Schedule A-01. However, financial institutions, direct air carriers, air freight forwarders affiliated with a direct air carrier, motor carriers, railroads, pipeline companies, telecommunications companies, insurance companies, interstate brokers-dealers, investment advisors, investment companies, and underwriters, broadcasters, and interstate pipeline companies use alternative schedules:
The apportionment schedules consist of the following:

  • Schedule A-01, Wisconsin Single Sales Factor Apportionment Data for Nonspecialized Industries • Schedule A-02, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Financial Institutions, • Schedule A-03, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Motor Carriers, • Schedule A-04, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Telecommunications Companies,
  • Schedule A-05, Wisconsin Premiums Factor for Insurance Companies,
  • Schedule A-06, Wisconsin Receipts Factor for Interstate Brokers-Dealers, Investment Advisors, Investment Companies, and Underwriters,
  • Schedule A-07, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Air Carriers,
  • Schedule A-08, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Broadcasters,
  • Schedule A-09, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Railroads,
  • Schedule A-10, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Pipeline Companies, or
  • Schedule A-11, Wisconsin Apportionment Percentage for Interstate Air Freight Forwarders Affiliated with a Direct

Air Carrier

# What Is Nonapportionable Unrelated Business Taxable Income

Nonapportionable income is that income which is allocable directly to a particular state. It includes income or loss derived from the sale of nonbusiness real or tangible personal property or from rentals and royalties from nonbusiness real or tangible personal property. This income is assigned to the state where the property is located.
All income that is realized from the sale of or purchase and subsequent sale or redemption of lottery prizes if the winning tickets were originally bought in Wisconsin shall be allocated to Wisconsin.
Except for income from lottery prizes described above, the intangible income of a personal holding company is nonapportionable and is assigned to the state of incorporation.
Total nonapportionable income (loss) is removed from total company net income before the apportionment percentage is applied. The Wisconsin nonapportionable income (loss) is then combined with the Wisconsin apportionable income to arrive at Wisconsin net income.

# Corporate Partners or LLC Members

An exempt corporation that is a general or limited partner includes its share of the numerator and denominator of the partnership's apportionment factors in the numerator and denominator of its apportionment factors. An exempt corporation that is a member of a limited liability company (LLC) treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes includes its share of the numerator and denominator of the LLC's apportionment factors in the numerator and denominator of its apportionment factors. The exempt corporation should request a detailed breakdown of the partnership's or LLC's items and amounts to be included in the computation of its apportionment factors.
Note: Income from a partnership or LLC may be nontaxable under the principles of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Allied-Signal v. Director, Div. of Taxation, 504 U.S. 768 (1992), if the investment is passive and does not serve an operational function. In this case, the exempt corporation would not include its share of the partnership's or LLC's apportionment factors in the numerator and denominator of its apportionment factors.

# Separate Accounting

An exempt organization engaged in a nonunitary business in and outside Wisconsin must determine the amount of income attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting. The exempt organization uses Form C, Separate Accounting Data, to compute the amount attributable to Wisconsin by separate accounting and uses Form N, Wisconsin Nonapportionable and Separately Apportioned Income, to report the separate accounting amount. This is because the income determined under separate accounting from Form C, line 16 is entered on Form N, line 6. A nonunitary business is one in which the operations in Wisconsin aren't dependent upon or contributory to the operations outside Wisconsin. Under separate accounting, the exempt organization must keep separate records of the sales, cost of sales, and expenses for the Wisconsin business.
A unitary business may use separate accounting only with the approval of the department. An application for such approval must set forth, in detail, the reasons why separate accounting will more clearly reflect the exempt organization's Wisconsin net income. It should be mailed to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, PO Box 8906, Madison,

# Applicable Laws and Rules
