Instructions for PA-40 NRC
PA-40 NRC IN (EX) MOD 04-24

Nonresident Consolidated Income Tax Return

GENERAL INFORMATION

DEFINITIONS

PURPOSE OF FORM
The PA-40 NRC, Nonresident Consolidated Return, is a tax
return used to combine and report the income (losses), PA
tax withheld, credits, etc., of two or more qualifying electing
nonresident individual owners of a domestic or foreign passthrough entity.

ELECTION TO FILE
A document maintained by the pass-through entity that certifies the individual nonresident owner is eligible to participate in the filing of the PA-40 NRC. The election should be
reviewed annually to ensure that qualifying electing nonresident individual owners continue to be eligible to participate.
See MAINTAINING RECORDS – SIGNED STATEMENTS
FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

IMPORTANT: If the pass-through entity only has one
qualified nonresident individual owner, the PA-40 NRC
cannot be filed on that owner's behalf. In order to report income or loss from a pass-through entity, the owner will be
required to file a PA-40 Personal Income Tax Return.
NOTE: Individual owners who elect to participate in
the joint filing of a PA-40 NRC return should not file a
PA-40 individual tax return.
EFFECT OF FILING A CONSOLIDATED RETURN
Unless rejected, the department considers the PA-40 NRC,
Nonresident Consolidated Income Tax Return, a return filed
on behalf of a group of qualifying electing nonresident individual owners that meet the individual filing requirements of
Pennsylvania personal income tax law.
The department’s acceptance of a PA-40 NRC is conditional
upon review to determine that it is a complete return, and
that all documentation was submitted.
This return is subject to revocation upon audit or review. The
department retains the right at any time to require the filing
of a PA-40, Personal Income Tax Return, from any of the individual partners or shareholders.
The department also retains the right to withdraw and modify
the authority to file a PA-40 NRC.
IMPORTANT: Nonresident individual owners qualifying for a PA-40 NRC cannot change their election to
file a PA-40 or vice versa after filing either Pennsylvania tax
return.
WHO MAY NOT FILE
The following may not file a PA-40 NRC:
● Any entity with only non-qualifying owners (see the definition of a non-qualifying owner for additional information);
● Any entity with only one qualifying electing nonresident
individual owner; and/or
● A fiscal year entity that has a short-year period return
and a fiscal year period return that end in the same calendar year cannot file a PA-40 NRC for either period.

INDIVIDUAL
A natural person that includes the members of a partnership or association and the shareholders of a Pennsylvania
S corporation.
PASS-THROUGH ENTITY
A pass-through entity is a PA S corporation, partnership or
limited liability company classified as a partnership or PA S
corporation for federal income tax purposes.
QUALIFYING ELECTING NONRESIDENT INDIVIDUAL
OWNER
Any nonresident individual who owns an interest in a passthrough entity who meets the following additional requirements:
● Whose tax year is a calendar year;
● Who along with his or her spouse is a domiciliary of a
state or country other than Pennsylvania during the entire calendar year;
● Who along with his or her spouse does not maintain a
permanent place of abode in Pennsylvania during the
calendar year;
● Who has no other Pennsylvania-taxable income derived
from, or connected with Pennsylvania sources other
than his or her distributive share of income or (loss) for
the calendar year; and
● Who elects to participate in the consolidated filing.
NON-QUALIFYING OWNER
Any pass-through entity owner other than a nonresident individual and all nonresident individuals with more than one
source of income or (loss) from Pennsylvania. Examples include, but are not limited to:
● Estates as owners of the pass-through entity;
● Trusts as owners of the pass-through entity (regardless
of how the trust is taxed);
● Other pass-through entities as owners of the passthrough entity; and

● Individuals who own more than one pass-through entity
with Pennsylvania-source income or who may have any
other Pennsylvania sourced income other than the current pass-through entity such as:
○

Compensation;

○

Business or farm income or losses;

○

Gains or losses from the sale of property;

○

Rental income or losses;

○

Estate or trust income; and/or

○

Gambling or lottery winnings.

IMPORTANT: The pass-through entity must maintain
a list of eligible electing nonresident individual owners,
as well as a separate list of non-qualifying owners. Section
II of the PA-20S/PA-65 Schedule NW must be completed.
Schedule NW, Section II provides a list of all nonresident individual owners (qualifying and non-qualifying). Refer to the
separate instructions for PA-20S/PA-65 Schedule NW, Section II for additional information.
IMPORTANT: Non-qualifying owners as listed above
are required to file the applicable PA-40, Pennsylvania
Individual Income Tax Return; PA-41 Fiduciary Income Tax
Return or the PA-20S/PA-65 PA S Corporation/Partnership
Information Return.

MAINTAINING RECORDS
SIGNED STATEMENTS
Nonresident individuals participating in the filing of the PA40 NRC are required to submit an annual written statement.
The statements must be maintained in the pass-through entity’s files. The pass-through entity must maintain for inspection at its principal office the following:
● A list of all nonresident owners with all pertinent information for the owners including the names (list by last
name in alphabetical order), addresses, Social Security
numbers, ownership interests, distributive shares of total
taxable income, tax due before application of payments,
credits, shares of tax withheld or payments, and shares
of overpayment, if any.
● A signed statement from each qualifying electing nonresident individual owner listed on the PA Schedule NW,
Nonresident Tax Withheld by PA S Corporations and
Partnerships, Section II, evidencing the individual’s election to join in filing a Pennsylvania consolidated group
return for the taxable year.
NOTE: The department recommends the statements
include assertions regarding all five requirements that
must be met to be a qualifying electing nonresident individual
owner.
It is the responsibility of the pass-through entity to keep the
statements it receives from its qualifying electing nonresident
individual owners as part of the pass-through entity’s records.
Do not submit the statements to the department.
2

FILING THE PA-40 NRC
The filing of a PA-40 NRC does not affect or change the requirement for filing the PA-20S/PA-65, PA S
Corporation/Partnership Information Return. The passthrough entity is still required to file the PA-20S/PA-65 and
issue PA Schedules RK-1 and NRK-1 to its owners. Please
refer to the instructions for the filing of the PA-20S/PA-65 Information Return.

WHAT TO FILE
The completed PA-40 NRC must be sent to the department
for each pass-through entity filing a PA-40 NRC return on behalf of its qualifying electing nonresident individual owners.
CAUTION: The PA Schedule NRK-1 provided to nonresident individuals should reflect the Pennsylvania
sourced activity to nonresidents and should be used in the
filing of the PA-40 NRC. Federal form 1065 or 1120S Schedule K-1 will not be acceptable replacements, please do not
attach to the PA-40 NRC.
IMPORTANT: Do not create a substitute PA-40 NRC
that has not been approved by the department. A
spreadsheet return is not an approved and acceptable tax
form. Unapproved tax forms filed with the department may
be rejected and returned to the taxpayer or tax return preparer and may result in the imposition of interest and
penalty. In addition, unapproved tax forms filed with the department may delay the processing of refunds. If you are filing any tax form other than an official tax form, please review
Miscellaneous Tax Bulletin 2008-02 on the department’s
website.

WHEN TO FILE
File the current year PA-40 NRC on or before April 15, 2025,
or, if an extension is filed, by October 15, 2025.
If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or business holiday, the entity must file its PA-40 NRC no later
than midnight on the first business day following the Saturday, Sunday, or business holiday. The U.S. Postal Service
postmark date on the envelope is proof of timely filing.
Pennsylvania follows the same tax year as federal rules.
If the return cannot be filed by the original due date, request an extension of time to file. See EXTENSION OF
TIME TO FILE.
If the return is not filed by the original due date or extended due
date and the tax due is not paid by the original due date, the
department imposes late filing and underpayment penalties.
CALENDAR-YEAR ENTITY
A pass-through entity must report all taxable income recognized between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31.
CAUTION: Fiscal year filing for the PA-40 NRC is
not permitted.

FISCAL YEAR ENTITY
A fiscal year is a period of 12 consecutive months without regard to the calendar year. The fiscal year is designated by the
calendar year in which it ends. A fiscal year pass-through entity
reports all taxable income recognized during the fiscal year.
Fiscal year pass-through entities are allowed to file the PA40 NRC on behalf of its nonresident individual owners as
long as the nonresident individual qualifies and elects to be
included in the filing.
A fiscal year pass-through entity files the PA-40 NRC return
using forms for the year that includes the ending year of the
fiscal year period. While the pass-through entity files its return on forms using the beginning year of the fiscal year period, the owners of the pass-through entity report the income
on forms using the ending year of the fiscal year period.
EXAMPLE: ABC Company has a fiscal year from July 1,
2023 until June 30, 2024. ABC Company would file the PA20S/PA-65 Information Return, on the 2023 form – the beginning year of the pass-through entity. ABC Company
would file the PA-40 NRC on the 2024 form – the ending
year of the pass-through entity. The 2023 PA Schedule NRK1 for each qualifying electing nonresident individual owner
being included on the 2024 PA-40 NRC verifies the income
(loss) earned during ABC Company’s fiscal year. The fiscal
beginning and ending dates are also reported on the PA
Schedule NRK-1.

EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
If the pass-through entity cannot file its PA-40 NRC on or
before the original return due date, the pass-through entity
must use REV-276, Application for Extension of Time to File,
to file for a 6-month extension.
NOTE: An extension of time to file a PA-40 NRC does
not extend the time for full payment of the nonresident
withholding tax, nor does it preclude the assessment of
penalty and interest for underpayment of tax due. Pay in full
the amount reasonably estimated as the nonresident withholding tax due on or before the original due date.
The department will not grant an extension for more than 6
months except for taxpayers outside the U.S.
An extension for the PA-40 NRC is filed separately from extensions for business returns since nonresident individuals
may not file on a fiscal year basis. A federal extension does
not grant an extension of time to file the PA-40 NRC.
An extension of time to file the PA-40 NRC does not extend
the filing deadline for any other Pennsylvania tax return. A
pass-through entity must obtain a separate extension of time
to file all other Pennsylvania tax returns.
QUALIFYING FOR THE EXTENSION
When a pass-through entity requests an extension of time
to file the PA-40 NRC it extends the filing time for its qualifying electing nonresident owners also.

HOW TO OBTAIN AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
1. Properly estimate the pass-through entity’s current
year nonresident withholding tax liability using the information available to you.
2. Enter the pass-through entity’s tax liability on the REV276.
3. File the REV-276 on or before the original return due
date of the pass-through entity’s return along with a
check or money order for the current year tax liability,
or file electronically through myPaTH. See
www.revenue.pa.gov for more information on making
payments through myPaTH.
NOTE: Payments equal to or greater than $15,000
must be made electronically. Payments not made
electronically will be subject to a penalty equal to 3% of the
payment amount not to exceed $500.
File the REV-276 in sufficient time before the return due
date. The return due date is April 15, 2025.
MAIL FORM REV-276 TO:
PA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE
BUREAU OF INDIVIDUAL TAXES
PO BOX 280504
HARRISBURG PA 17128-0504
HOW TO FILE THE EXTENDED PA-40 NRC
When filing a PA-40 NRC for which an extension was
requested, the pass-through entity should fill in the “Extension Requested” oval at the top of the PA-40 NRC.
NOTE: Do not submit the REV-276 with the PA-40
NRC.
EXTENSION DUE DATES
See WHEN TO FILE.

WHEN TO AMEND THE PA-40 NRC
An amended PA-40 NRC can only be filed to adjust the
amounts on a return for increases or decreases in amounts
due to amendments made by the pass-through entity to PA
Schedule NRK-1 or to correct errors. An amended PA-40
NRC cannot be filed to include any additional electing nonresident individual owner or to reverse an election by removal
of a non-qualifying owner.
OVER-REPORTED INCOME (REFUND CLAIM)
If the pass-through entity over reported income, failed to
claim allowable credits, failed to report allowable deductions,
or events transpired that decreased its reportable Pennsylvania-taxable income, including an IRS report of change,
the pass-through entity must file an amended PA-40 NRC.
The amended return must be filed within three years of the
original due date or the extended due date with an approved
extension on file.
NOTE: An amended PA-40 NRC should not be filed
requesting a refund after the statute of limitations if a

tax period has expired (three years from the original or extended due date, or payment of the tax). Additionally, you
may not file an amended return after the department has issued an assessment for the same taxable issues.
The amended PA Schedules NRK-1 must show the corrected Pennsylvania-taxable income, so the nonresident
shareholders or partners can report the correct income on
their Pennsylvania tax return.
In order to obtain any refunds, owners must also file an
amended Pennsylvania tax return within the later of three
years of the original or extended due date of their return, or
three years from the date of payment.
UNDER-REPORTED INCOME (TAX DUE)
If the pass-through entity under reported income, erroneously claimed credits or deductions to which it was not
entitled, or events transpired that increased reportable
Pennsylvania-taxable income, including an IRS report of
change, the pass-through entity must file an amended PA40 NRC within 30 days from the determination of such increase. The amended PA Schedules NRK-1 must show the
corrected Pennsylvania-taxable income so the nonresident
shareholders can report the correct Pennsylvania income
on their Pennsylvania tax return.
The pass-through entity and owners must also file an amended
Pennsylvania tax return within 30 days of the discovery of the
error to report any increase in income for taxes due.
An amended return should not be filed requesting a
refund in the nine-month period prior to the close of
the statute of limitations for a tax period (three years from
the original or extended due date of the return). A Board of
Appeals Petition Form (Form REV-65) should be filed for
amendments requesting refunds during that time period to
protect appeal rights in the event the request for refund is
denied. A Board of Appeals Petition may not be acted upon
by the Board of Appeals if an amended return refund is denied and the Board of Appeals Petition is filed after the threeyear period has ended.

HOW TO AMEND THE PA-40 NRC
If after filing the PA-40 NRC a pass-through entity discovers
that an incorrect return has been submitted to the department and/or federal Form 1065 or federal Form 1120S has
been amended or if the Internal Revenue Service changes
or corrects any item of income, gain or loss previously reported, the pass-through entity must submit an amended
PA-40 NRC to the department.
To amend your original PA-40 NRC use a tax return form for
the tax year that is to be amended and fill in the “Amended
Return” oval at the top of the tax return. Do not send a copy
of your original return. Complete the return by entering the
corrected information and submit it. See WHERE TO FILE.
IMPORTANT: If an amended PA Schedule NRK-1 is
issued, the original PA-40 NRC must also be amended
to reflect the changes on the PA Schedule NRK-1.

WHO MUST SIGN
GENERAL PARTNER, PRINCIPAL OFFICER OR
AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUAL SIGNATURE AND NAME
The PA-40 NRC must be signed and dated.
The pass-through entity has not submitted a valid PA-40
NRC unless it is properly signed. The person signing the return must be a general partner, limited liability company
member, S corporation officer, authorized partner or representative, or a person expressly authorized to sign.
The pass-through entity official signing the return certifies by
written declaration, under penalty of perjury, that he or she
has personally examined the PA-40 NRC and its accompanying schedules and that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the PA-40 NRC is true, correct and complete.
The pass-through entity official that is responsible for signing
the PA-40 NRC must sign it by hand; signature stamps or
labels are not acceptable, and include his or her title, date,
and daytime phone number.
The responsible official must submit all required schedules
with the PA-40 NRC.
PREPARER’S SIGNATURE AND NAME
A paid preparer may sign original or amended returns by
rubber stamp, mechanical device, or computer software
program. Pennsylvania follows federal guidelines for
signature requirements for the preparer.
If a partner, shareholder or employee of the pass-through
entity completes the PA-40 NRC the paid preparer’s space

should remain blank. In addition, anyone who prepares the
PA-40 NRC, Nonresident Consolidated Income Tax Return,
but does not charge the pass-through entity should not complete the paid preparer section.
Anyone who prepares a PA-40 NRC for a fee or incident to
the performance of services for which the preparer charges
a fee (e.g., an attorney provides legal services for a fee and
includes for free) the preparation of the PA-40 NRC must
complete the required paid preparer information listed below:
● Print or type the paid preparer’s names in the space provided.
● Sign the return in the space provided for the paid preparer’s signature.
● Fill in the other areas in the “Paid Preparer Use Only”
section.
● Print or type the paid preparer’s company or corporation
name and federal employer identification number, if applicable.
● Print or type the paid preparer’s Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN). If you are a paid preparer, you must
use a PTIN issued by the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) to identify yourself in the paid preparer section of
the tax return.
● Give a copy of the return to the taxpayer.
If someone prepares the return at no charge, the paid preparer’s area need not be completed.
