Instructions for Taxpayer(s)
Please sign and return the original and copy of Form 921-P, Consent Fixing Period of Limitation On Assessment of
Income and Profits Tax, to apply for a consent in accordance with Revenue Procedure 92-29 and its successors.
1. The consent generally applies to partnership returns filed for partnership tax years beginning after September 3, 1982.
Other entities (those not subject to the unified audit and litigation procedures for TEFRA partnerships) must
use Form 921-I.
2. The consent may be signed for the partnership in the appropriate space by either: a. The Tax Matters Partner for the
partnership for the year(s) covered by the consent, or b. any other person authorized by the partnership in writing to
sign the consent (see item 5 below).
3. If the Tax Matters Partner is not an individual and the consent is signed by a person acting in a representative capacity
for the Tax Matters Partner, for example, the trustee of a trust, the declaration above the signature line for the Tax
Matters Partner refers to the bankruptcy of the Tax Matters Partner, not the person who actually signed the consent.
4. If the Tax Matters Partner has filed a joint return with his or her spouse for the taxable years(s) covered by the consent
and the consent is signed by the Tax Matters Partner, the declaration above the signature line for the Tax Matters
Partner refers to the bankruptcy of either spouse, not just to the person who actually signed the consent.
5. If the consent is signed by any person other than the Tax Matters Partner, a copy of the written authorization from the
partnership must be attached to the consent. The information that must be included in the authorization is described in
Temporary Regulations 301.6229(b)-l and is listed below. The written authorization must:
a. Provide that it is an authorization for a person other than the Tax Matters Partner to extend the assessment period
with respect to all partners.
b. Identify the partnership and the person being authorized by name, address, and taxpayer identification number.
c. Specify the partnership tax year or years for which the authorization is effective, and
d. Include the signatures of all persons who were general partners at any time during the year or years for which the
authorization is effective.
