Schedule P (Form 1120-F) is used to (1)
identify and reconcile the foreign
corporation's directly held partnership
interests with the distributive shares of
partnership effectively connected income
(ECI), or expenses allocable to ECI, and
the foreign corporation's effectively
connected outside tax basis in each
interest, and/or (2) report information
regarding a foreign corporate partner's
transfer of an interest in a partnership and
the calculation of gain or loss on the
transfer when the partnership directly or
indirectly either is engaged in the conduct
of a trade or business within the United
States or holds any U.S. real property
interests (see sections 864(c)(8) and
897(g)).
Who Must Complete
Schedule P
A foreign corporation that is directly or
indirectly engaged in a trade or business
within the United States is required to file
Schedule P (Form 1120-F) for all directly
owned partnership interests that have
gross ECI, and/or expenses allocable to
gross ECI, included in its distributive share
of income reported to the corporation on
Schedule K-3 (Form 1065). If the foreign
corporation treats any of its distributive
share of partnership net income or loss
from a partnership that is not engaged in a
trade or business within the United States
as ECI with another trade or business of
the corporation, the corporation's entire
distributive share of items of income and
expense from any such partnership must
also be reconciled between ECI and
non-ECI and reported on Schedule P.
A foreign corporation must also
complete Schedule P if it transfers an
interest in a partnership that directly or
indirectly either is engaged in the conduct
of a trade or business within the United
States or holds any U.S. real property
interests. Unless an exception applies, the
transferee of that partnership interest must
withhold tax on the amount realized on the
transfer and report on Form 8288-A,
Statement of Withholding on Certain
Dispositions by Foreign Persons, the
amount realized and the amount of section
1446(f) tax withheld on the transfer.
Part I is used to identify all partnership
interests the foreign corporation directly
owns from which it has a distributive share
of income or loss that is effectively
connected with a trade or business within
