Question

When is Schedule M-3 required to be filed?

Answer

Schedule M-3 is required if any of the following apply.

  • The amount of total assets at the end of the tax year reported on Schedule L is greater than or equal to $10 million.
  • The amount of adjusted total assets for the tax year is greater than or equal to $10 million.
  • The amount of total receipts (Form 1065, Page 1; Form 4797; Schedule F; etc.) for the tax year is greater than or equal to $35 million.
  • A reportable entity partner owns or is deemed to own an interest of 50 percent or more of the partnership's capital, profit, or loss on any day during the tax year.

Notes

  • Partnerships filing Schedule M-3 with ending total assets of $50 million or more should not complete Schedule M-1.
  • If the Suppress Schedule M-3 field on Screen M3 is blank, UltraTax CS completes Schedule M-3 as a voluntary filer if any data is entered in Screens M3, M3-2, or M3-3.
