Filing Requirements – Partnership A partnership must file a PA-20S/PA-65 Information Return to report the income, deductions, gains, losses etc. from their operations. The partnership passes through any profits (losses) to the resident and nonresident partners.
Partnerships file an information return on Form 1065, U.S. Return of Partnership Income. A domestic partnership must file an information return, unless it neither receives gross income nor pays or incurs any amount treated as a deduction or credit for federal income tax purposes.
Every resident, part-year resident or nonresident individual must file a Pennsylvania Income Tax Return (PA-40) when he or she realizes income generating $1 or more in tax, even if no tax is due (e.g., when an employee receives compensation where tax is withheld).
Corporations subject to the Corporate Net Income Tax (excluding PA S Corporations that have Built-In-Gains) must continue to file the RCT-101 annually.
