Do you pay tax on distributions from a limited partnership?

Go to the SSA.gov website and use the search box for Publication 3402 (PDF) Tax Issues For Limited Liability CompaniesA limited liability company (LLC) is an entity:Formed under state law by filing articles of organization as an LLC.Where none of the members of an LLC are personally liable for its debts.Must be classified for Federal income tax purposes as if it were a sole proprietorship (referred to as an entity disregarded as separate from its owner), a partnership, or a corporation. However, if the LLC has employees, for employment tax purposes the LLC will be treated as a corporation.If the LLC has:Only one owner, (see Publication 555, on community property states), it will automatically be treated as if it were a sole proprietorship (a disregarded entity), unless an election is made for it to be treated as a corporation.Has two or more owners, it will automatically be treated as a partnership unless an election is made for it to be treated as a corporation.If the LLC does not make a classification election, a default classification of disregarded entity (single-member LLC) or partnership (multi-member LLC) will apply. The election referred to is made using the Form 8832 (PDF), Entity Classification Election. If a taxpayer does not file Form 8832 (PDF), a default classification will apply.For additional information use the search box for the below referenced materialsPublication 334, Tax Guide for Small BusinessTax Topic 103, Small Business Tax Education ProgramPublication 542, CorporationsPublication 541, PartnershipsThe question asks about good old fashioned LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS (not limited liability partnerships or corps - which were developed much more recently and are a different thing). A limited Partnership (LP) is a partnership agreement where there are at least one general partner (GP) who has unlimited liability and joint and several liability for the LP debts, and limited partners, whose liability is restricted to their investment.LP are pass through entities for tax - that is they do not pay tax but the partners do on receipt of the income. There are some accounting clinks, where income is either delayed in pass through or speeded up, but that will be seen on the form 1065/K-1 that you receive showing the types of income - or tax benefit - you must claim that year. (Note that an investment in an LP may be passive, investment or active income too).

Can rental income losses be considered a passive loss when selling the property?

Unless you have qualified and elected to be treated as a real estate professional for income tax purposes, rental losses are, by definition, passive activity losses. These losses are subject to various limitations, so some or all may be suspended in any given tax year. At the time of complete disposition of the rental property, the taxpayer may take any suspended losses against his ordinary income for that year. See IRS Publication 925, Passive Activity and At-Risk Rules, and Publication 527, Residential Rental Property, for further information.


Is there a limitation on the loss carryforward of passive losses?

AnswerLosses from passive activities-activities in which the taxpayer doesn't materially participate, and most rental activities-may only be used to offset passive activity income (which doesn't include portfolio income); thus they can't be used to offset income from, for example, compensation, interest or dividends. Any losses that are unused in a tax year because of this rule are carried forward to the following year(s) until used, or until taxpayer disposes of the interest in the activity (or substantially all of the activity) in a taxable transaction. Passive activity credits may be used only to offset tax on income from passive activities, with a carryover of any unused credits. However, individuals who actively participate in rental real estate activities may use up to $25,000 of losses from those activities to offset nonpassive income; and those activities are not automatically passive for real estate professionals. However, the 25K losses start to phase out for a married filing jointly taxpayers with AGI of $100k and are gone completely at $150K AGI...


Is rental income earned income?

What is the difference from Passive loss rules to at risk rules?

First and foremost, both of these terms are tax terms of art. Passive losses are "hobby losses," losses that are not derived from the main business activity. These losses are sometimes deductible. In contrast, the "at risk rules" is basically an understanding used in partnership, which states that you cannot allocated losses to someone not at risk for those losses; thus, you must allocated loss by the amount of risk, which is usually also demonstrated by gain allocation. E.g. A partnership has three partners, A, B, and C. A and B each put in 49% of the income, C puts in 2%. That year the partnership has 100 dollars in losses. The partnership cannot allocate 100% of the losses to C, because he was not "at risk" of losing that much. These rules were enacted to do away with tax shelters that throw out losses to investors.

The Partnership Agreement is used to form a general partnership. This form cannot be used to from any type of entity except a general partnership. Partnerships are the organizational form most subject to problems because people assume they are more informal than they are. On many occasions, partners expect their partners to concede on points they know they would not do in a standard corporate setting. So beware of this organizational form for that reason. Having said this, it is far wiser to use this agreement for even the smallest of partnership ventures to ensure equitable treatment to all parties and to yourself in particular.2. Unlike other types of organizational entities (e.g., corporations), it takes at least two parties to form a partnership. If only one person desires to form a partnership, the maker will need to use some other business entity, for example a corporation.3. State or local law may require that the partners make a "fictitious name" filing. Check requirements in your locale to see if such a filing is required.4.
