FORM-1065
Partnership Tax Preparation (FORM-1065)
For businesses that operate as partnerships, for example, Limited Liability Partnership it’s the partners who are responsible for paying taxes on the business’ income, not the business. Partnerships, according to the IRS, do not pay taxes on their income. However, each partner is responsible for filing an individual tax return reporting their share of income, losses, deductions and credits that the business reported on the informational 1065 tax form.

​
Each partner is accountable for filing individual tax return to report their share of income, looses, deductions and credits. As a result, the partnership must prepare a Schedule K-1 to report each partner’s share of these tax items. K-1s are provided to the IRS with the partnership’s tax return and also to each partner so that they can add the information to their own tax returns. For example, if a business earns $400,000 of taxable income and has four equal partners, each partner should receive a K-1 with $100,000 of income on it.
​
Schedule K-1 The Schedule K-1 is slightly different depending on whether it comes from a Trust, Partnership or S Corporation. However, all K-1s provide detailed information about the type of income, deduction or loss so the recipient can accurately report the information on a tax return.
