Description

Multistate taxation of S corporations presents significant challenges to tax preparers and advisers. Not all states follow the federal S-election tax guidelines, and some states do not recognize S corporations as PTEs in all circumstances.

In addition to the lack of conformity in filing requirements and status, various states have different treatments of nonresident shareholders and differing rules regarding composite returns and withholding.

Different states have different approaches to filing and withholding requirements when a resident S corporation has nonresident shareholders. While many states require composite returns, some states, such as Georgia, require all nonresident shareholders to consent to pay Georgia tax and require the corporation to file as a C corporation absent that consent.

Tax advisers must be fully aware of the filing and withholding issues that arise when an S corporation has a nonresident shareholder.

In addition to the overall lack of conformity between federal and state treatment of S corporations, there is divergence among various states on the recognition of QSSS. Several states do not recognize the QSSS, and tax advisers must understand the impact of nonrecognition.

Listen as our experienced panel provides a detailed exploration into the issues and opportunities related to the multistate taxation of S corporations.
