Composite
returns. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, Oklahoma
will allow partnerships with two or more partners to file composite returns for
nonresident partners as set forth in (A) through (D) of this paragraph.
(A)
Individual partners and trust
partners. Compute each nonresident individual or trust partner's share
of Oklahoma distributive income and income tax as follows:
(i) Calculate the Oklahoma distributive share
of each nonresident individual and trust partner's income as if all of the
partnership income was earned in Oklahoma. In determining taxable income of
individual partners filing a composite return, no deductions for the standard
deduction, personal exemptions, federal income tax paid, or dependents is
permitted.
(ii) Using the Oklahoma
individual income tax rates for the applicable tax year, compute a base
tax for each partner using the highest marginal tax rate, based on the
taxable income from (i) of this subparagraph.
(iii) Calculate the actual Oklahoma
distributive share of income of each partner.
(iv) The base tax determined from (ii) of
this subparagraph is to be prorated to determine the Oklahoma income tax of
each partner. Divide each partner's actual Oklahoma distributive share as
determined in (iii) of this subparagraph, by each partner's distributive income
from all sources as determined by (i) of this subparagraph. Multiply this
percentage times the base tax to calculate the actual Oklahoma income tax of
each partner. Nothing in this section shall be construed to allow for more than
one hundred percent (100%) of a nonresident partner's income to be taxed.
(B)
Corporate
partners, S Corporation partners and Partnership partners. Compute each
nonresident corporate, S corp or partnership partner's share of Oklahoma
distributive income, using the partner's share of Oklahoma distributive income
and the Oklahoma corporate income tax rates, to compute each partner's Oklahoma
tax.
(C)
Form. The
income and tax of all partners included in the composite return must be
combined on Oklahoma Tax Commission Form 514.
(D)
Schedule to be provided.
Oklahoma Tax Commission Form 514 PT must be enclosed with the Form 514 to show
the computation of each nonresident partner's Oklahoma distributive income and
Oklahoma tax. The schedule of nonresident partner's information may be provided
on magnetic media, electronically, or in another format which meets Tax
Commission guidelines.
