Why are my Schedules L, M-1, and M-2 printing blank even though amounts have been entered?

If the partnership satisfies all four of the following conditions, Schedules L, M-1, and M-2 are not required:

 

  1. The partnership’s total receipts for the tax year were less than $250,000.
  2. The partnership’s total assets at the end of the tax year were less than $1 million.
  3. Schedule K-1 are filed with the return and furnished to the partners on or before the due date (including extensions) for the partnership return.
  4. The partnership is not filing and is not required to file Schedule M-3.

Note: Even if the balance sheet (Schedule L) is not required for federal purposes, the information will transfer to those state returns that do require the information.

If Schedules L, M-1, and M-2 are not required but you would still like to print these schedules please follow the instructions below:

  1. From within your TaxACT return (Online or Desktop) select the Basic Info tab

  4. If this question is answered Yes, the next question will allow you to print Schedules L, M-1, and M-2
  5. If this question is answered No, Schedules L, M-1 and M-2 will print
