Must a corporation complete all parts of Schedule M-3 for any taxable year the corporation is required to file Schedule M-3?
A. Yes. However, a corporation is required to complete only Part I and Columns (b) and (c) of Parts II and III for the corporation’s transition year (the first taxable year the corporation is required to file Schedule M-3). Columns (a) and (d) of Parts II and III are optional for the corporation’s transistion year. The corporation must complete Schedule M-3 in its entirety for all other taxable years the corporation is required to file Schedule M-3.
