About the PTE election
Partnerships and S Corporations that do not have a partnership, LLC, or corporation, other than a disregarded entity, as a partner or shareholder, may elect to file and pay income tax at the entity level on behalf of their owners.
Single-member limited liability companies (SMLLCs) are not eligible to file Schedule PTE.
The election is made by filing Schedule PTE by the due date or extended due date of the entity’s return. The election may only be made by qualifying owners who collectively own more than 50% of the qualifying entity. Once made, the election is irrevocable for the tax year and is binding on all owners of the qualifying entity.
