partner, on Form 8805, Foreign Partner’s

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  
the United States.

Regulations section 1.884-1(d)(3)(i) for the  
elective requirements for apportioning  
outside basis on the income or asset

respect to the partnership's liabilities. This  
adjustment is made only for purposes of

Parts IV and V  
Section 864(c)(8) provides that if a foreign  
transferor owns, directly or indirectly, an  
interest in a partnership that is engaged in  
the conduct of a trade or business within  
the United States, gain or loss recognized  
by the foreign transferor on the transfer of  
all (or any portion) of the interest is treated  
as effectively connected gain or effectively  
connected loss, limited to the partner’s  
allocable share of gain or loss on a  
determination date. The proportion of U.S.  
assets to total assets of the partnership is  
determined as if the partnership were a  
foreign corporation engaged in a trade or  
business within the United States.  
Part IV—Foreign Partner’s  
Interests in Partnerships  
Transferred During Tax  
Year  
Use a separate line for each partnership  
interest transferred during the year. If  
multiple interests in the same partnership  
were transferred during the year, report  
each on a separate line. For each entry in  
Part IV, complete an entry in Part V. Report  
the following information in each column of  
Part IV.  
Column (a). Before completing column  
(a), complete a separate line on Part I for  
each partnership whose interest was not  
otherwise required to be reported under  
those instructions if (1) the transfer of the  
interest resulted in gain or loss under  
section 864(c)(8) or Regulations section  
1.864(c)(8)-1, or (2) the transfer of the  
interest resulted in gain or loss solely  
under section 897(g). Enter the letter  
Generally, a partner's proportionate share  
of a partnership asset is the same as its  
proportionate share of all items of income,  
gain, loss, and deduction that may be  
generated by the asset. Use amounts from  
Schedule K-3 (Form 1065), Part X,  
Section 3, lines 2a and 2b to calculate the  
asset ratio that is applied to the  
deemed sale gain or loss of the  
partnership’s U.S. trade or business  
assets. A transfer means a sale,  
exchange, or other disposition, and  
includes a distribution from a partnership  
to a partner to the extent that gain or loss  
is recognized on the distribution, as well  
as a transfer treated as a sale or exchange  
under section 707(a)(2)(B). This

Similarly, section 897(g) requires that if
