Will the IRS waive the late filing penalty for not filing partnership return on time.  I was 5 months late.. $195 @ 5 months time 2 partners equals $2,000?


this was my intial return.  I was not aware of penalty since the K-1 income went to my personal return (1040)

There are several ways in which a partnership late filing penalty can be waived, including first time abatement, reasonable cause, and Rev proc 84-35 which basically says if all the partners filed their personal returns correctly and on time then the penalty can be abated.
