Instructions for Form 1065-B Schedule K-1 |
2006 Tax Year |
This is archived information that pertains only to the 2006 Tax Year. If you are looking for information for the current tax year, go to the Tax Prep Help Area.
Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP)
If the “publicly traded partnership” box is checked, you are a partner in a publicly traded partnership (PTP) and must follow the rules under
Publicly traded partnerships discussed above.
Partner's Share of Liabilities
The partnership will show your share of the partnership's nonrecourse liabilities, partnership-level qualified nonrecourse
financing, and other
liabilities as of the end of the partnership's tax year. If you terminated your interest in the partnership during the tax
year, the amounts should
reflect the share that existed immediately before the total disposition. A partner's “other liability” is any partnership liability for which a
partner is personally liable.
Use the total of the three amounts for computing the adjusted basis of your partnership interest.
Generally, you can use only the amounts shown next to “Qualified nonrecourse financing” and “Other” to compute your amount at risk. Do
not include any amounts that are not at risk if such amounts are included in either of these categories.
If your partnership is engaged in two or more different types of activities subject to the at-risk provisions, or a combination
of at-risk
activities and any other activity, the partnership should give you a statement showing your share of nonrecourse liabilities,
partnership-level
qualified nonrecourse financing, and other liabilities for each activity.
Qualified nonrecourse financing.
Qualified nonrecourse financing generally includes financing for which no one is personally liable for repayment
that is borrowed for use in an
activity of holding real property and that is loaned or guaranteed by a federal, state, or local government or borrowed from
a “ qualified”
person. Qualified nonrecourse financing secured by real property used in an activity of holding real property that is subject
to the at-risk rules is
treated as an amount at risk.
Qualified persons.
Qualified persons include any persons actively and regularly engaged in the business of lending money, such as a bank
or savings and loan
association. Qualified persons generally do not include related parties (unless the nonrecourse financing is commercially
reasonable and on
substantially the same terms as loans involving unrelated persons), the seller of the property, or a person who receives a
fee for the partnership's
investment in the real property.
See Pub. 925 for more information on qualified nonrecourse financing.
Both the partnership and you must meet the qualified nonrecourse rules on this debt before you can include the amount shown
next to “Qualified
nonrecourse financing” in your at-risk computation.
See Limitations on Losses, Deductions, and Credits beginning on page 2 for more information on the at-risk limitations.
Tax Shelter Registration Number
A partnership that is a registration-required tax shelter or has invested in a registration-required tax shelter, should have
entered a tax shelter
registration number in this box. If you claim or report any income, loss, deduction, or credit from a tax shelter, you must
attach Form 8271, Investor
Reporting of Tax Shelter Registration Number, to your tax return.
A partnership that has invested in a tax shelter must provide you with a copy of its Form 8271 with your Schedule K-1. Use
the information on this
Form 8271 to complete your Form 8271. If the partnership itself is a registration-required tax shelter, use the information
on Schedule K-1 (that is,
name of the partnership, partnership identifying number, and tax shelter registration number) to complete your Form 8271.
The amounts shown in boxes 1 through 9 reflect your share of income, loss, deductions, credits, etc., from the partnership.
These amounts do not
take into consideration the following limitations.
-
The adjusted basis of your partnership interest.
-
The amount for which you are at risk.
-
The passive activity limitations.
For information on these provisions, see Limitations on Losses, Deductions, and Credits beginning on page 2.
For individuals, the following instructions explain how to report the amounts shown in the boxes. For all other entities,
report the amounts in the
boxes as instructed on your income tax return.
The line numbers in these instructions are references to forms in use for calendar year 2006. If you file your tax return
on a calendar year basis,
but your partnership files a return for a fiscal year, enter the amounts shown in the boxes on your tax return for the year
in which the partnership's
fiscal year ends. For example, if the partnership's tax year ends on June 30, 2007, report the amounts in the boxes on your
2007 income tax return.
If you have losses, deductions, or credits from a prior year that were not deductible or usable because of certain limitations,
such as the basis
rules or the at-risk limitations, take them into account in determining your net income, loss, or credits for this year. However,
except for passive
activity losses and credits, do not combine the prior-year amounts with any amounts shown on this Schedule K-1 to get a net
figure to report on any
supporting schedules, statements, or forms attached to your return. Instead, report the amounts separately on the attached
schedule, statement, or
form on a year-by-year basis.
For amounts other than those shown on Schedule K-1, enter each item on a separate line of Part II of Schedule E (Form 1040).
Box 1. Taxable Income (Loss) From Passive Activities
Limited partners only.
Any amount reported in box 1 is treated as being from a trade or business that is a single passive activity. Report
this amount as follows.

is checked, report
the income following the rules for Publicly traded partnerships on page 5.
-
If a loss is reported in box 1, follow the Instructions for Form 8582 to figure how much of the loss can be reported on Schedule
E (Form
1040), line 28, column (f). However, if the PTP box is checked, report the loss following the rules for Publicly traded
partnerships.
Box 2. Taxable Income (Loss) From Other Activities
This amount is not subject to the passive activity limitations. Report the amount as follows.
-
If the amount is income, report it on Schedule E (Form 1040), line 28, column (j).

If the amount is a loss, report it on Schedule A (Form 1040), line 27.
Box 3. Qualified Dividends
Report this amount on lines 9a and 9b of Form 1040.
Note.
Qualified dividends are excluded from investment income, but you can elect to include part or all of these amounts in investment

Box 4a. Net Capital Gain or (Loss) From Passive Activities
Limited partners only.

activity. If a net capital
gain is reported in box 4a, report the gain on Schedule D (Form 1040), line 12, column (f).
If a loss is reported in box 4a, report it following the Form 8582 instructions to figure how much of the loss can

from other passive

Box 6. Net Other AMT Adjustment
Individual general and limited partners should enter this amount on line 15 of Form 6251.
Limited partners only. Enter this amount from box 7 on line 1z of Form 3800, General Business Credit. Because general credits are

3 of Form 3800.
Box 8. Low-Income Housing Credit
Limited partners only. Enter this amount on line 4 of Form 8586, Low-Income Housing Credit. This credit is treated as being from a

General partners in an ELP must separately account for any items attributable to passive loss limitation activities to the
extent necessary to
comply with the section 469 passive loss rules. Therefore, the partnership is required to report income or (loss), capital
gain or (loss), 28% rate
gain or (loss), credits, and the alternative minimum tax adjustment separately for all trade or business activities, rental
real estate activities,
and rental activities other than rental real estate.

Reminder.
A partner is required to notify the partnership of its tax-exempt status.
Code M4. Health insurance.
Include any amounts paid during the tax year for insurance that constitutes medical care for you, your spouse, and
your dependents on line 29 of
your 2006 Form 1040. You may be allowed to deduct such amounts, even if you do not itemize deductions. If you do itemize deductions,
enter on line 1
of Schedule A (Form 1040) any amounts not deducted on line 29 of Form 1040.
Code M5. Distributions of money (cash and marketable securities).
This amount includes the distributions the partnership made to you of cash and certain marketable securities. The
marketable securities are
included at their fair market value (FMV) on the date of distribution (minus your share of the partnership's gain on the securities
distributed to
you). If this amount exceeds the adjusted basis of your partnership interest immediately before the distribution, the excess
is treated as gain from
the sale or exchange of your partnership interest. Generally, this gain is treated as gain from the sale of a capital asset
and should be reported on
the Schedule D for your return. However, the gain may be ordinary income. For details, see Pub. 541.
The partnership must separately identify both of the following.
-
The FMV of the marketable securities when distributed (minus your share of the gain on the securities distributed to you).
-
The partnership's adjusted basis of those securities immediately before the distribution.
Decrease the adjusted basis of your interest in the partnership (but not below zero) by the amount of cash distributed
to you and the partnership's
adjusted basis of the distributed securities. Advances or drawings of money or property against your distributive share are
treated as current
distributions made on the last day of the partnership's tax year.
Your basis in the distributed marketable securities (other than in liquidation of your interest) is the smaller of:
-
The partnership's adjusted basis in the securities immediately before the distribution increased by any gain recognized on
the distribution
of the securities or
-
The adjusted basis of your partnership interest reduced by any cash distributed in the same transaction and increased by any
gain recognized
on the distribution of the securities.
If you received the securities in liquidation of your partnership interest, your basis in the marketable securities
is equal to the adjusted basis
of your partnership interest reduced by any cash distributed in the same transaction and increased by any gain recognized
on the distribution of the
securities.
If, within five years of a distribution to you of marketable securities, you contributed appreciated property (other
than those securities) to the
partnership and the FMV of those securities exceeded the adjusted basis of your partnership interest immediately before the
distribution (reduced by
any cash received in the distribution), you may have to recognize gain on the appreciated property. For property contributed
after June 8, 1997, the
5-year period is generally extended to 7 years. See section 737 for details.
Code M6. Distributions of property other than money.
Box 9, Code M6, shows the partnership's adjusted basis of property other than money immediately before the property
was distributed to you. In
addition, the partnership should attach a statement showing the cost basis and FMV of each property distributed. Decrease
the adjusted basis of your
interest in the partnership by the amount of your basis in the distributed property. Your basis in the distributed property
(other than in liquidation
of your interest) is the smaller of:
If you received the property in liquidation of your interest, your basis in the distributed property is equal to
the adjusted basis of your

Codes O1 and O2. Extraterritorial Income Exclusion
Partnership did not claim the exclusion.
If the partnership reports your distributive share of foreign trading gross receipts (Code O1) and the extraterritorial
income exclusion (Code
O2), the partnership was not entitled to claim the exclusion because it did not meet the foreign economic process requirements.
You may still qualify
for your distributive share of this exclusion if the partnership's foreign trading gross receipts for the tax year were $5
million or less.
To qualify for this exclusion, your foreign trading gross receipts from all sources for the tax year also must have
been $5 million or less.
Limited partners who qualify for the exclusion.
Report the extraterritorial exclusion amount (Code O2) as a deduction reducing the amount reported in box 1 (see the
box 1 instructions on page 6).
General partners who qualify for the exclusion.
Report the Code O2 amount in accordance with the instructions for box 9, Code A1, B1, or C1, whichever applies. See
Form 8873, Extraterritorial
Income Exclusion, for more information.
Partnership claimed the exclusion.
If the partnership reports your distributive share of foreign trading gross receipts (Code O1) but not the amount
of the extraterritorial income
exclusion, the partnership met the foreign economic process requirements and claimed the exclusion when figuring your distributive
share of
partnership income. You also may need to know the amount of your distributive share of foreign trading gross receipts from
this partnership to
determine if you met the $5 million or less exception discussed above for purposes of qualifying for an extraterritorial income
exclusion from other
sources.
Note.
Upon request, the partnership should furnish you a copy of the partnership's Form 8873 if there is a reduction for international
boycott
operations, illegal bribes, kickbacks, etc.
The partnership must provide a statement showing the amounts of each type of income or gain that is included in inversion
gain. The partnership has
included inversion gain in income elsewhere on Schedule K-1. Inversion gain is also reported under Code P because your taxable
income and alternative
minimum taxable income cannot be less than the inversion gain. Also, your inversion gain (a) is not taken into account in figuring the
amount of net operating loss (NOL) for the tax year or the amount of NOL that can be carried over to each tax year, (b) may limit the
amount of your credits, and (c) is treated as income from sources within the U.S. for the foreign tax credit. See section 7874 for details.
