Filing Tax Form 8832
File Form 8832 with the Internal Revenue Service Center for your state listed below.
In addition, attach a copy of Form 8832 to the entity’s federal tax or information return for the tax year of the election. If the entity is not required to file a return for that year, a copy of its Form 8832 must be attached to the federal tax returns of all direct or indirect owners of the entity for the tax year of the owner that includes the date on which the election took effect. An indirect owner of the electing entity does not have to attach a copy of the Form 8832 to its tax return if an entity in which it has an interest is already filing a copy of the Form 8832 with its return. Failure to attach a copy of Form 8832 will not invalidate an otherwise valid election, but penalties may be assessed against persons who are required to, but do not, attach Form 8832.
Each member of the entity is required to file the member’s return consistent with the entity election. Penalties apply to returns filed inconsistent with the entity’s election.
