NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE Instructions for Form NYC-204 Unincorporated Business Tax Return for Partnerships, including Limited Liability Companies 2022 Single member LLCs using SSN as their primary identifier must use Form NYC-202 Highlights of Recent Tax Law Changes for Partnerships (including Limited Liability Companies) ● For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2021, eligible pass through entities may opt into the New York State Pass Through Entity Tax (“NYS PTET”) imposed under New York Tax Law Article 24-A. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, eligible New York City pass through entities may opt into the New York City Pass Through Entity Tax (“NYC PTET”) imposed under New York Tax Law Article 24-B. Taxpay- ers are required to add back to federal taxable income any NYC PTET, NYS PTET, and similar pass through entity taxes from other jurisdictions that were previously deducted when calculating federal taxable income. See Section 11-507(4) of the New York City Administrative Code. ● Section 1 of Chapter 555 of the Laws of 2022 added a new paragraph 12 to section 11-506(c) of the New York City Administrative Code, which includes a modification subtracting from federal gross income the amount of any grant received through either the COVID-19 Pandemic Small Business Recovery Grant program pur- suant to section 16-ff of the New York State Urban Development Corporation Act or the New York City Small Business Resilience Grant program administered by the New York City Department of Small Business Serv- ices to the extent the amount of either such grant is included in federal taxable income. ● For details on the proper reporting of income and expenses addressed in the federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, such as mandatory deemed repatriation income, foreign-derived intangible income (FDII), global in- tangible low-taxed income (GILTI), please refer to Finance Memorandum 18-10. For information about the IRC section 163(j) limitation on the business interest expense deduction, please refer to Finance Memorandum 18-11. ● Note that according to the federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, net operating losses generated during or after 2018 generally may no longer be carried back. These losses may be carried forward indefinitely; however, each year’s deduction will be limited to 80% of taxable income (without regard to the deduction). ● For purposes of the New York City Unincorporated Business Tax, General Corporation Tax, Banking Corpora- tion Tax and Business Corporation Tax, the City has “decoupled” from the Federal bonus depreciation allowed under IRC section 168(k), except with respect to the depreciation deductions allowed with respect to “qualified New York liberty zone property” and “qualified property” placed in service in the Resurgence Zone (generally the area in the borough of Manhattan south of Houston Street and north of Canal Street.) For City tax purposes, depreciation deductions for all other “qualified property” must be calculated as if the property was placed in service prior to September 11, 2001. See Form NYC-399Z and Finance Memorandum 22-1, “Application of the IRC §280F to Sports Utility Vehicles” for more information. IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING FORM NYC-200V AND PAYMENT OF TAX DUE Payments may be made on the NYC Department of Finance website at nyc.gov/eservices, or via check or money order. If pay- ing with check or money order, do not include these payments with your New York City return. Checks and money orders must be accompanied by payment voucher form NYC-200V and sent to the address on the voucher. Form NYC-200V must be post- marked by the return due date to avoid late payment penalties and interest. See form NYC-200V for more information. |
