amending a return 1 Year, 11 Months ago Karma: 0  
If a partnership return was filing in 2005 and in 2006 there was no activity, do you need to file a 2006 tax return or do you just amend the 2008 tax return and mark it final?

Partnership tax returns do not have a minimum revenue filing requirement. If the partnership was in existence during the year, then a partnership tax return, form 1065 must be filed. If you dont file form 1065, then the IRS will issue a penalty.

I just re-read your post. I think you are right. If you amend the 06 return to make it final, then you might aviod the IRS penalties. The problem is that if a tax return is out of section 6651 statute of limitations, then you may not be able to amend.

Amend the 06 return and call it final. If you file an 07, and file it late, you will have to pay penalties.
