How to complete Form 7203 in ProSeries

For more Schedule K-1 resources, check out our Tax topics page for Schedule K-1 where you'll find answers to the most commonly asked questions.

Before you start:

New starting in tax year 2023: The 7203 is automatically included in the e-filed return and no longer needs to be added as a PDF attachment.
- For tax year 2021 and 2022: This form isn't supported in the e-file schema for electronically filed returns and must be manually attached as a PDF attachment. See here for details.
  - When you add the PDF attachment, make sure the Type of Form 7203.
The allowable losses on the 7203 won't automatically flow to the Schedule K-1 Worksheet and will need to be manually entered.
The 7203 isn't required on the 1120S return and needs to be completed on the 1040 return by the shareholders. Who must file: Form 7203 is filed by shareholders who:
- Are claiming a deduction for their share of an aggregate loss from an S corporation (including an aggregate loss not allowed last year because of basis limitations),
- Received a non-dividend distribution from an S corporation,
- Disposed of stock in an S corporation (whether or not gain is recognized); or
- Received a loan repayment from an S corporation
If the shareholder had multiple Stock Blocks in the S-Corporation, additional copies of Form 7203 would need to be manually completed and attached for each additional Stock Block.
