Corporate tax filing requirements

All New York C corporations subject to tax under Tax Law Article 9-A must file using the following returns, as applicable:

• Form CT-3, General Business Corporation Franchise Tax Return
• Form CT-3-A, General Business Corporation Combined Franchise Tax Return (For information as to when a combined return is permitted or required, see Form CT-3-A-I, Instructions for Form CT-3-A.)
• Form CT-3-M, General Business Corporation MTA Surcharge Return

All business corporations that have elected to be treated as a New York S corporation by filing Form CT-6, Election to be Treated as a New York S Corporation, or are a mandated New York S corporation, must file Form CT-3-S, New York S Corporation Franchise Tax Return, instead of Form CT-3.

Important: Use the correct form for the correct tax year when you file (except as described below). If you use an incorrect form or form for the incorrect tax year:

• we will not process your return,
• your return will be considered late, and
• we may assess penalties and interest.

When to use the 2023 tax return

Use this tax return for:

• calendar year 2023,
• fiscal years that begin in 2023 and end in 2024, and
• tax years of less than 12 months that begin on or after January 1, 2023, but before January 1, 2024.

You can also use the 2023 return if:

• you have a tax year of less than 12 months that begins and ends in 2024, and
• the 2024 return is not yet available at the time you are required to file the return.

In this case you must show your 2024 tax year on the 2023 return and take into account any tax law changes that are effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2023.

Taxpayers using a 52-53 week year

A taxpayer who reports on the basis of a 52-53 week accounting period for federal income tax purposes may report on the same basis for Article 9-A purposes. If a 52-53 week accounting period begins within seven days from the first day of any calendar month, the tax year is deemed to begin on the first day of that calendar month. If a 52-53 week accounting period ends within seven days from the last day of any calendar month, the tax period will be deemed to end on the last day of the calendar month.

Corporations subject to tax under Article 9-A (§ 208.1)

The definition of a corporation, as used in Article 9-A and in these instructions, includes:

• associations,
• limited liability companies,
• limited liability partnerships, and
• publicly traded partnerships that are taxed as corporations under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).

Exceptions

A business corporation subject to tax under Article 9-A includes all corporations except the following:

• insurance corporations (including for-profit HMOs required to obtain a certificate of authority under Public Health Law Article 44) [Tax Law Article 33];
• transportation and transmission corporations (other than aviation corporations, corporations principally engaged in transportation, transmission, or distribution of gas, electricity, or steam (TTD corporations), and nonelecting railroad and trucking corporations) [Tax Law Article 9];
• farmers, fruit growers, and similar agricultural cooperatives with, or without, capital stock [§ 209.12];
• nonstock, not-for-profit corporations, as long as no part of their net earnings benefits any officer, director, or member; or
• continuing § 186 taxpayers [Article 9].

Domestic corporations

A domestic corporation (incorporated in New York State) subject to tax under Article 9-A is generally liable for franchise taxes for each fiscal or calendar year (or partial year) during which it is incorporated until it is formally dissolved with the Department of State.

However, a domestic corporation that is no longer doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, or deriving receipts from activity, in New York State is exempt from the fixed dollar minimum tax after its final tax year and is not required to file a franchise tax return as long as it meets the requirements listed in § 209.8.

Foreign corporations

A foreign corporation (incorporated outside of New York State) is liable for franchise taxes under Article 9-A during the period in which it is doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, maintaining an office, or deriving receipts from activity in New York State.

A foreign corporation is not considered to be doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, maintaining an office, or deriving receipts from activity in this state, if their activity is limited to any or all of the following:

• the maintenance of cash balances with banks or trust companies in this state;
• the ownership of shares of stock or securities kept in this state if kept in a safe deposit box, safe, vault, or other receptacle rented for that purpose, or if pledged as collateral security, or if deposited with one or more banks or trust companies, or with brokers who are members of a recognized security exchange, in safekeeping or custody accounts;
• the taking of any action by any such bank or trust company or broker, which is incidental to the rendering of safekeeping or custodian service to the corporation;
• the maintenance of an office in this state by one or more officers or directors of the corporation who are not employees of the corporation if the corporation otherwise is not doing business in this state, and does not employ capital, or own or lease property in this state; or
• the keeping of books or records of a corporation in this state if such books and records are not kept by employees of the corporation and the corporation does not otherwise do business, employ capital, own or lease property, or maintain an office in this state.

A corporation is doing business in this state if:

• it has issued credit cards (including bank, credit, travel, and entertainment cards) to 1,000 or more customers who have a mailing address in this state as of the last day of its tax year;
• it has merchant customer contracts with merchants and the total number of locations covered by those contracts equals 1,000 or more locations in this state to whom the corporation remitted payments for credit card transactions during the tax year; or
• the sum of the number of customers and the number of locations equals 1,000 or more.

Deriving receipts

A corporation is considered to be deriving receipts in this state if it has receipts within New York of $1.138 million or more in a tax year. See § 209.1 and TSB-M-22(2)C, 2023 MTA Surcharge Rate and Deriving Receipts Thresholds.

Receipts within this state means the receipts included in the numerator of the apportionment factor determined under § 210-A and reported in Part 6, line 55, column A.

A foreign corporation that is a partner in a partnership, should see Corporate partners.

Qualified subchapter S subsidiary

The filing requirements for a qualified subchapter S subsidiary that is owned by a federal S corporation that is a New York C corporation or a nontaxpayer corporation depend on whether New York State follows federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment in each situation.

In those instances where New York State follows federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment:

• the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is not considered a subsidiary of the parent corporation;
• the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is ignored as a separate taxable entity, and the assets, liabilities, income, and deductions of the qualified subchapter S subsidiary are included with the assets, liabilities, income, and deductions of the parent for franchise tax purposes; and
• for other taxes, such as sales and excise taxes, the qualified subchapter S subsidiary continues to be recognized as a separate corporation.

In the situations outlined below where New York State follows the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment, you must apply the combined reporting rules to determine whether the parent files Form CT-3 (with its qualified subchapter S subsidiary’s activity included), or files as a member of a combined group on Form CT-3-A.

In the situations outlined below where the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment is not followed, you must still apply the combined reporting rules to determine if either the parent, the qualified subchapter S subsidiary, or both, should file as distinct members of a combined group on Form CT-3-A.

Parent is a New York C corporation:

New York State follows the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment if:

• the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is a New York State taxpayer; or
• the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is not a New York State taxpayer, but the parent makes a qualified subchapter S subsidiary inclusion election.

In both cases, the parent files as a New York C corporation on Form CT-3 (with its qualified subchapter S subsidiary’s activity included) or, if the combined filing requirements are met with one or more entities (other than the qualified subchapter S subsidiary), on Form CT-3-A.

New York State does not follow the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment when the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is not a New York State taxpayer and the parent does not make a qualified subchapter S subsidiary inclusion election.

• the parent files as a New York C corporation on Form CT-3 (without its qualified subchapter S subsidiary’s activity included) or, if the combined filing requirements are met with one or more other entities (one of which could be the qualified subchapter S subsidiary), on Form CT-3-A;
• both the parent and the qualified subchapter S subsidiary, as separate entities, are subject to the combined reporting rules; and
• if the parent and qualified subchapter S subsidiary are unitary, they both file as distinct members of a combined group on the same Form CT-3-A.

Nontaxpayer parent:

New York State follows the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment where the qualified subchapter S subsidiary is a New York State taxpayer but the parent is not, if the parent elects to be taxed as a New York S corporation by filing Form CT-6.

In this case, the parent and qualified subchapter S subsidiary are taxed as a single New York S corporation, and file Form CT-3-S.

New York State does not follow the federal qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment if the parent does not elect to be a New York S corporation.

• the qualified subchapter S subsidiary (without its parent’s activity included) must file as a New York C corporation on Form CT-3 or, if the combined filing requirements are met with one or more other entities (one of which could be the parent), on Form CT-3-A;
• both the parent and the qualified subchapter S subsidiary, as separate entities, are subject to the combined reporting rules; and
• if the parent and qualified subchapter S subsidiary are unitary, they both file as distinct members of a combined group on the same Form CT-3-A.

Exception

Qualified subchapter S subsidiary treatment is not allowed in any case when the parent and qualified subchapter S subsidiary file under different Articles of the Tax Law (or would file under different Articles if both were subject to New York State franchise tax).

In this case, each corporation must file as a distinct entity under its applicable Article, subject to the Article 9-A combined reporting rules, as applicable.

Mandated New York S corporations

If the investment income of an eligible federal S corporation is more than 50% of its federal gross income for that year, shareholders that have not made the election to be treated as a New York S corporation for the current tax year will be deemed to have made that election and must file Form CT-3-S.

For purposes of the mandated New York State S election, investment income means the sum of an eligible S corporation’s gross income from interest, dividends, royalties, annuities, rents and gains derived from dealings in property, including the corporation’s share of such items from a partnership, estate, or trust, to the extent such items would be includable in the corporation’s federal gross income for the tax year. To determine whether an eligible S corporation is deemed to have made this election, you must include the income of a qualified subchapter S subsidiary owned, directly or indirectly, by the eligible S corporation with the income of the eligible S corporation.

Corporate partners

• If a partnership is doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, maintaining an office, or deriving receipts from activity, in New York State, then a corporation that is a general partner in that partnership is subject to tax under Article 9-A. See § 209.1(f).
• If a partnership is doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, maintaining an office, or deriving receipts from activity, in New York State, then a corporation that is a limited partner of that partnership (other than a portfolio investment partnership) is subject to tax under Article 9-A if it is engaged, directly or indirectly, in the participation or in the domination or control of all or any portion of the business activities or affairs of the partnership.

A limited liability company or limited liability partnership that is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes is treated as a partnership for New York State tax purposes.

Determining economic nexus

For purposes of determining nexus, the $1.138 million threshold for deriving receipts is determined by combining the general partner’s receipts in New York with the partnership’s receipts in New York. Also, when a limited partner is engaged, directly or indirectly, in the participation or in the domination or control of all or any portion of the business activities or affairs of the partnership, other than a portfolio investment partnership, for purposes of determining nexus, the $1.138 million threshold for deriving receipts is determined by combining the limited partner’s receipts in New York with the partnership’s receipts in New York.

In instances where a limited liability company is treated as a partnership, other than a portfolio investment partnership:

• If the limited liability company’s operating agreement does not limit a corporate member’s participation in the management of the limited liability company, combine such member’s receipts in New York with the receipts in New York of the limited liability company.
• If the limited liability company’s operating agreement does limit a corporate member’s participation in the management of the limited liability company but such member is engaged, directly or indirectly, in the participation in or domination or control of all or any portion of the business activities or affairs of the limited liability company, combine such member’s receipts in New York with the receipts in New York of the limited liability company.

Example:

Partnership A has two general partners: Partner B who owns 60% of the partnership and Partner C who owns 40%. Partnership A has $800,000 of receipts in New York.

Separately, Partner B has $700,000 of receipts in New York and Partner C has $600,000 of receipts in New York. For purposes of determining nexus only, both partners B and C would be treated as having $800,000 from the partnership. Combined with their own receipts, both general partners exceed $1.138 million in receipts in New York ($1.5 million for Partner B and $1.4 million for Partner C). Therefore, both general partners are subject to tax.

Alien corporations

An alien corporation (a corporation organized under the laws of a country, or any political subdivision thereof, other than the United States, or organized under the laws of a possession, territory, or commonwealth of the United States) is not deemed to be doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, maintaining an office, or deriving receipts from activity, in this state if its activities in this state are limited solely to:

• investing or trading in stocks and securities for its own account per IRC § 864(b)(2)(A)(ii);
• investing or trading in commodities for its own account per IRC § 864(b)(2)(B)(ii); or
• any combination of the above two activities.

An alien corporation that under any provision of the IRC is not treated as a domestic corporation as defined under IRC § 7701 and has no effectively connected income, gain, or loss, for the tax year is not subject to tax under Article 9-A for that tax year. See § 209.2-a.

Tax-exempt domestic international sales corporations

A corporation that qualifies as a domestic international sales corporation under IRC § 992(a) is exempt from tax under Article 9-A if during the year it received more than 5% of its:

• gross sales from the sale of inventory or other property purchased from its stockholders;
• gross rentals from the rental of property purchased or leased from its stockholders; or
• total receipts, other than sales or rentals, from its stockholders.

All corporate stockholders in tax-exempt domestic international sales corporations must adjust each item of its receipts, expenses, assets, and liabilities, as otherwise computed under Article 9-A, by adding thereto its attributable share of each such domestic international sales corporation's receipts, expenses, assets, and liabilities as reportable by each such domestic international sales corporation to the United States Treasury for its annual reporting period ending during the current tax year of such taxpayer. The tax-exempt domestic international sales corporation itself has no franchise tax filing requirement.

Taxable domestic international sales corporations

Domestic international sales corporations that do not meet the 5% test under Tax-exempt domestic international sales corporations are taxable domestic international sales corporations. Taxable domestic international sales corporations must file Form CT-3 on or before the 15 th day of the ninth month after the end of the tax year. Such a domestic international sales corporation is subject to the tax on apportioned capital or the fixed dollar minimum, whichever is larger. Write DISC after the legal name of the corporation in the address section of the return.

How to file

Electronically

By mail

Private delivery services: See Publication 55, Designated Private Delivery Services.

Penalties and interest

If you pay after the due date

If you do not pay the tax due on or before the original due date, you must pay interest on the amount of the underpayment from the original due date of the return (without regard to any extension of time for filing) to the date the tax is paid. Interest is always due, without any exceptions, on any underpayment of tax. An extension of time for filing does not extend the due date for payment of tax.

If you file and pay after the due date

Compute additional charges for late filing and late payment on the amount of tax minus any payment made on or before the due date (with regard to any extension of time for filing).

1. If you do not file a return when due, or if the request for extension is invalid, add to the tax 5% per month up to 25% [§ 1085(a)(1)(A)].
2. If you do not file a return within 60 days of the due date, the additional charge in item A above cannot be less than the smaller of $100 or 100% of the amount required to be shown as tax [§ 1085(a)(1)(B)].
3. If you do not pay the tax shown on a return when due, add to the tax ½% per month up to a total of 25% [§ 1085(a)(2)].
4. The total of the additional charges in items A and C may not exceed 5% for any one month, except as provided for in item B above [§ 1085(a)].

If you think you are not liable for these additional charges, attach a statement to your return explaining the delay in filing, payment, or both. See § 1085.

Note: You may calculate your penalty and interest online, or you may call and we will compute the penalty and interest for you.

If you understate your tax

If the tax you report is understated by 10% or $5,000, whichever is greater, you must pay a penalty of 10% of the amount of understated tax. You can reduce the amount on which you pay penalty by subtracting any item for which:

1. there is or was substantial authority for the way you treated it; or
2. there is adequate disclosure on the return or in an attached statement.

If you underpay your estimated tax

If you can reasonably expect your New York State franchise tax liability to exceed $1,000, you must make payments of estimated tax. A penalty will be imposed if you fail to file a declaration of estimated tax or fail to timely pay the entire installment payment of estimated tax due. For complete details, see Form CT-222.

Other penalties

Civil and criminal penalties may be imposed for negligence or fraud.

Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program

Have you underreported your tax due on past returns? Tax Law, Article 36, § 1700 authorizes the Tax Department to waive civil and criminal penalties for taxpayers who disclose and pay overdue taxes. Under the Tax Department’s Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program, eligible taxpayers who owe back taxes can avoid monetary penalties and possible criminal charges by:

• telling the Tax Department what taxes they owe;
• paying those taxes; and
• entering an agreement to pay all future taxes.

Applying is easy. Follow the prompts, answer a few questions, and submit your application electronically. See Voluntary Disclosure and Compliance Program or visit www.tax.ny.gov (search: voluntary).

Amended returns

If you are filing an amended return, mark an X in the Amended return box on page 1 of the return. If you file an amended federal return, you must file an amended New York State return within 90 days thereafter.

Important: Use the correct year’s form for the tax year you are amending. If you file an amended return using a form for the wrong tax year:

• we may reject your amended return, and
• it may delay any tax benefits you are claiming.

For amended returns based on changes to federal taxable income

If your federal taxable income has been changed or corrected by a final determination of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, or by a renegotiation of a contract or subcontract with the United States, you must file an amended return reflecting the change to federal taxable income within 90 days of the final federal determination (as final determination is described under the regulations of the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance).

You must attach a copy of federal Form 4549, Income Tax Examination Changes, to your amended return.

If you filed as part of a consolidated group for federal tax purposes but on a separate basis for New York State tax purposes, you must submit a statement indicating the changes that would have been made if you had filed on a separate basis for federal tax purposes.

For credits or refunds based upon carryback of a net operating loss

To claim a credit or refund resulting from the carryback of a net operating loss to a prior year, file an amended return for the year to which the carryback is being applied within three years of the date the return was due (including extensions thereof) for the tax year of the loss.

However, see § 1087(d) for the last date to claim such credit or refund when:

• the last date for assessing tax for the tax year of the loss was extended by agreement [§ 1087(b)], or
• you were required to file an amended return due to notice of change or correction of federal taxable income for the tax year to which the loss is being carried back [§ 1087(c)].

You must attach Form CT-3.4 and a copy of the New York State return previously filed with New York State for the loss year to your amended return.

For credits or refunds of corporation tax paid

To claim any refund type that requires an amended return, other than a net operating loss carryback (see For credits or refunds based upon carryback of a net operating loss), file an amended New York State return for the year being amended and, if applicable, attach a copy of the claim form filed with the IRS (usually Form 1120X) and proof of federal refund approval, Statement of Adjustment to Your Account. You must use the tax return for the year being amended.

If you are a federal S corporation, file an amended New York State return for the year being amended. If applicable, attach a copy of the amended federal Form 1120S.

You must file the amended return within three years of the date the original return was filed or within two years of the date the tax was paid, whichever is later. If you did not file an original return, you must make the request within two years of the date the tax was paid. However, a claim for credit or refund based on a federal change must be filed within two years from the time the amended return reporting the change or correction was required to be filed (see For amended returns based on changes to federal taxable income).

For additional limitations on credits or refunds, see § 1087.

Filing your final return

Mark an X in the Final return box on page 1 of the return if the corporation is a:

• domestic corporation that ceased doing business, employing capital, owning or leasing property, or deriving receipts from activity, in New York State during the tax year and wishes to dissolve; or
• foreign corporation that is no longer subject to the franchise tax in New York State.

Do not mark an X in the Final return box:

• if you are only changing the type of return that you file (for example, from Form CT-3 to CT-3-S); or
• in the case of a merger or consolidation.

Include the full profit from any installment sale made in your final tax year on your final return. Also include on your final return any remaining profit not yet received from a prior years’ installment sale. Include such amounts in your federal taxable income before net operating loss and special deductions on Part 3, line 1.

New York S corporation termination year

When a New York S corporation terminates its federal or New York S election on a day other than the first day of a tax year, the tax year is divided into two tax periods (an S short year and a C short year). The corporation must file Form CT-3-S for the New York S short year and Form CT-3 for the New York C short year.

When an IRC § 338(h)(10) election is made for a target corporation that is a New York S corporation, the target corporation must file two short-period (less than 12 months) returns. When filing the second short-period return, the federal taxable income of the new target is the starting point for computing entire net income.

The total tax for the S short year and the C short year may not be less than the fixed dollar minimum tax determined as if the corporation were a C corporation for the entire tax year. For more information, see Form CT-3-S-I, Instructions for Form CT-3-S.

The due date of the New York S corporation short year return (Form CT-3-S) is the same as the New York C corporation short year, even though they are treated as separate short tax years.

Computing corporation franchise tax

Tax bases

Corporations subject to tax under Tax Law Article 9-A generally must compute three distinct taxes and pay the tax that results in the largest amount owed. The three taxes are:

• a tax on business income computed in Part 3,
• a tax on business capital computed in Part 4, and
• a fixed dollar minimum tax based on New York receipts computed in Part 6.

New York State innovation hot spot program

A qualified entity of a New York State innovation hot spot that is located solely within a hot spot is subject only to the fixed dollar minimum tax for five tax years beginning with the first tax year the qualified entity becomes a tenant in, or part of, an innovation hot spot.

A qualified entity must be certified by a New York State innovation hot spot.

A taxpayer who claims this benefit or who enters an amount on Form CT-3, Part 3, line 4, as a subtraction from federal taxable income for the income or gain attributable to the operations at, or as part of, the hot spot is no longer eligible for any other New York State exemption, deduction, credit, or refund under the Tax Law to the extent that such exemption, deduction, credit, or refund is attributable to the business operations of a tenant in, or as part of, the New York State innovation hot spot. Claiming these benefits represents an irrevocable election.

Computation of tax for corporate partners

A taxpayer that is a partner in a partnership (a corporate partner) computes its tax for its interest in the partnership using either the aggregate method or entity method, whichever applies. For an exception to these methods, see Foreign corporate limited partners – separate accounting election or visit our website at www.tax.ny.gov (search: separate).

Aggregate method

Under the aggregate method, a corporate partner is viewed as having an undivided interest in the partnership’s assets, liabilities, and items of receipts, income, gain, loss, and deduction. The partner is treated as participating in the partnership’s transactions and activities.

Corporate partners required to file under the aggregate method

A corporate partner receiving a complete Form IT-204-CP, New York Corporate Partner’s Schedule K-1, must file using the aggregate method. In addition, a corporate partner must file using the aggregate method if the corporate partner has access to the information necessary to compute its tax using the aggregate method. A corporate partner is presumed to have access to the information and therefore is required to file using the aggregate method if it meets one or more of the following conditions:

• it is conducting a unitary business with the partnership;
• it is a general partner of the partnership or is a managing member of a limited liability company that is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes;
• it has a 5% or more interest in the partnership;
• it has reported information from the partnership for a prior tax year using the aggregate method;
• its partnership interest constitutes more than 50% of its total assets;
• its basis in its interest in the partnership determined under IRC § 705 on the last day of the partnership year that ends within or with the taxpayer’s tax year is more than $5 million; or
• any member of its affiliated group has the information necessary to perform such computation.
  • Affiliated group has the same meaning as such term is defined in IRC § 1504 without regard to the exclusions provided for in § 1504(b). However, the term common parent corporation means any person as defined in IRC § 7701(a)(1).

  Computation of tax under the aggregate method

  Include the taxpayer’s distributive share (IRC § 704) of each partnership item of receipts, income, gain, loss, and deduction, and the taxpayer’s proportionate part of each partnership asset, liability, and partnership activity in the computation of the taxpayer’s business income base, capital base, and the fixed dollar minimum.

  These items have the same source and character in the hands of the partner for Article 9-A purposes that the items have for the partner for federal income tax purposes.

  Entity method

  Under the entity method, a partnership is treated as a separate entity and a corporate partner is treated as owning an interest in the partnership entity. The partner’s interest is an intangible asset that is classified as business capital. To the extent a corporate partner’s entire net income includes its distributive share of partnership items of income, gain, loss, or deduction, those items are treated as business income.

  A corporate partner that does not receive a complete Form IT-204-CP may file using the entity method only if it does not meet any of the conditions listed above and does not have access (and will not have access within the time period allowed for filing a return with regard to all extensions of time to file) to the information necessary to compute its tax using the aggregate method and certifies these facts to the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance.

  Computation of tax under the entity method

  A corporate partner is treated as owning an interest in the partnership entity for purposes of determining the taxes measured by the business income base, capital base, and the fixed dollar minimum. The partner’s interest is an intangible asset that is business capital.

  Foreign airlines

  Foreign airlines that have a foreign air carrier permit pursuant to § 402 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 may exclude from entire net income all income from international operations effectively connected to the United States, foreign passive income, and income earned from overseas operations, provided the foreign country in which the airline is based has a similar exemption from tax with respect to United States airlines. See § 208.9(c-1).

  When computing the tax on capital, foreign airlines may also exclude from business capital those assets used to generate the income that was excluded based on the previous paragraph (to the extent the assets were employed in generating that income). See § 208.7(b).

  However, if the country in which the foreign airline is based does not provide a similar exemption from tax with respect to United States airlines, the foreign airline is not entitled to the exclusions from income and capital described above.

  How to fill out your corporation tax return

  Important identifying information

  When preparing your corporation tax return, be sure to accurately complete the corporation’s identifying information (employer identification number (EIN) and file number) including your current address. Keep a record of your identifying information for future use.

  If you use a paid preparer or accounting firm, make sure they use your complete and accurate information when completing all your forms.

  All filers must complete the beginning and ending tax year boxes in the upper right corner on page 1 of the form.

  Signature

  The return must be certified by the president, vice president, treasurer, assistant treasurer, chief accounting officer, or other officer authorized by the taxpayer corporation.

  The return of an association, publicly traded partnership, or business conducted by a trustee or trustees must be signed by a person authorized to act for the association, publicly traded partnership, or business.

  If an outside individual or firm prepared the return, all applicable entries in the paid preparer section must be completed, including identification numbers (see Paid preparer identification numbers in Form CT-1).

  Failure to sign the return will delay the processing of any refunds and may result in penalties.

  Line instructions

  Line A: Make your check or money order payable in United States funds. We will accept a foreign check or foreign money order only if payable through a United States bank or if marked Payable in U.S. funds.

  Line B: If during the tax year you do business, employ capital, own or lease property, maintain an office, or derive receipts from activity, in the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District, you are subject to the MTA surcharge. The Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District includes the counties of New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, Richmond, Dutchess, Nassau, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Suffolk, and Westchester. For more information, see Form CT-3-M-I.

  Mark an X in the appropriate box and if yes is marked, file Form CT-3-M.

  Line C: Pursuant to Public Law 86-272, a foreign corporation is not subject to the tax imposed by Article 9-A if its activities are limited to those described in that law. If you are disclaiming tax liability in New York State based on Public Law 86-272, but still want to file a New York State franchise tax return, mark an X in the box. You must also complete Form CT-3 in its entirety and enter 0 on Part 2, line 4.

  Part 1: General corporate information

  Section A: Qualification for preferential tax rates

  If you fail to mark a box that pertains to you, the processing of your return may be delayed and you may lose your claimed tax benefit.

  Generally, you will only mark one box in Section A, indicating which preferential tax status you are actually using to realize the tax benefits of that status. However, a qualified New York manufacturer can mark the boxes on both lines 2 and 3 if it meets the principally engaged test for line 2 and the different principally engaged test for line 3.

  If you are a small business taxpayer utilizing small business tax benefits, mark the box on line 6 and enter your total capital contributions on line 6a.

  Line 1

  If you are a qualified emerging technology company eligible for the lower business income base tax rate, the 0% capital base tax rate, and the lower fixed dollar minimum tax amounts, you must mark an X in the box. For qualifying criteria, see New York State Public Authorities Law section 3102-e(1)(c), without regard to the $10 million limitation. For more information, see TSB-M-12(9)C, Clarification of Qualifications for Qualified Emerging Technology Company (QETC) Tax Credits.

  Line 2

  If you are a qualified New York manufacturer based on the principally engaged test and you are eligible for the 0% business income base tax rate and also the lower fixed dollar minimum tax amounts, you must mark an X in the box.

  The principally engaged test

  A qualified New York manufacturer is a manufacturer that has property in New York State that they principally use in the production of goods by:

  • manufacturing,
  • processing,
  • assembling,
  • refining,
  • mining,
  • extracting,
  • farming,
  • agriculture,
  • horticulture,
  • floriculture,
  • viticulture, or
  • commercial fishing,
  • the New York adjusted basis of the property is at least $1 million at the close of the tax year; or
  • all of its real and personal property is located in New York State.

  A taxpayer is principally engaged in the above listed activities if during the tax year more than 50% of its gross receipts are derived from receipts for the sale of goods produced by these activities.

  Property that does not qualify as property used in the production of goods, includes property principally used in the production or distribution of:

  • electricity,
  • natural gas after extraction from wells,
  • steam, or
  • water delivered through pipes and mains.

  For purposes of the 0% business income base tax rate and the lower fixed dollar minimum tax amounts, the following are not considered qualifying activities for purposes of the principally engaged test:

  • the generation and distribution of electricity,
  • the distribution of natural gas, and
  • the production of steam associated with the generation of electricity.

  Any amount of global intangible low-taxed income included in federal taxable income is disregarded for purposes of the principally engaged test used to determine a taxpayer’s eligibility for preferential rates and amounts available to manufacturers.

  For more information, see TSB-M-15(3)C, Real Property Tax Credit and Reduction of Tax Rates for Qualified New York Manufacturers, TSB-M-15(3.1)C, Revised Information on the Real Property Tax Credit and Reduction of the Capital Base Tax Rate for Qualified New York Manufacturers, and TSB-M-19(5)C, New York State Adjusted Basis for Qualified New York Manufacturers.

  Line 3

  If you are a qualified New York manufacturer based on the principally engaged test eligible for the 0% capital base tax rate, you must mark an X in the box.

  Line 4

  If you are a qualified New York manufacturer based on the significant employment and property test and eligible for the 0% business income base tax rate, the 0% capital base tax rate, and the lower fixed dollar minimum tax amounts, you must mark an X in the box.

  The significant employment and property test

  This test is met if you employ (during the tax year) at least 2,500 employees in manufacturing in New York and you have property in the state used in manufacturing, the adjusted basis of which for New York State tax purposes at the close of the tax year is at least $100 million.

  For purposes of the 0% business income base tax rate and the lower fixed dollar minimum tax amounts, the generation and distribution of electricity, the distribution of natural gas, and the production of steam associated with the generation of electricity are not considered qualifying activities for purposes of determining if employees are employed in manufacturing, or if property is used in manufacturing.

  Line 5

  If you are a cooperative housing corporation eligible for the 0% capital base tax rate, you must mark an X in the box.

  A corporation that has only one class of stock that entitles the shareholder to live in a house or an apartment building owned or leased by the corporation may be a cooperative housing corporation. For complete definition, see IRC § 216(b).

  Note: All cooperative housing corporations must file Form TP-588, Cooperative Housing Corporation Information Return, twice a year. For more information, see the instructions on Form TP-588.

  Line 6

  If you are a small business taxpayer eligible for the 0% capital base tax rate, you must mark an X in the box.

  A corporation qualifies as a small business taxpayer if:

  1. its entire net income reported in Part 3, line 7 is not more than $390,000,
  2. the total amount of money and other property it received for stock, as a contribution to capital and as paid-in surplus, is not more than $1 million as of the last day of its tax year,
  3. the average number of individuals (excluding general executive officers) employed full time in New York State during the tax year is 100 or fewer, and
  4. the corporation is not part of an affiliated group, as defined in IRC § 1504, unless the group itself would have met the above criteria if it had filed a combined return.

  Determine the average number of individuals employed full time in the state by averaging the sum of such individuals employed on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of the tax year.

  An individual employed full time means:

  • an employee in a job consisting of at least 35 hours per week, or
  • two or more employees who are in jobs that together constitute the equivalent of a job of at least 35 hours per week (full-time equivalent).

  A full-time equivalent employee in New York State includes any employee regularly connected with or working out of an office or place of business of the taxpayer in New York State.

  General executive officers include:

  • the chairman,
  • president,
  • vice president,
  • secretary,
  • assistant secretary,
  • treasurer,
  • assistant treasurer,
  • comptroller, and
  • any other officer charged with the general executive affairs of the corporation.

  An executive officer whose duties are restricted to territory either in or outside New York State is not a general executive officer.

  You must report your New York State employee information on Part 1, Section B, line 1.

  Short periods

  A corporation that files Form CT-3 for a tax year of less than 12 months must annualize entire net income from Form CT-3, Part 3, line 7, to determine if it qualifies as a small business taxpayer. For a period of less than 12 months, annualize the entire net income by multiplying the entire net income by 12 and dividing the result by the number of months in the short period.

  Line 6a

  If you mark the box on line 6, you must provide the information requested on this line. The amount taken into account with respect to any property other than money is the amount equal to the adjusted basis to the taxpayer of such property for determining gain, reduced by any liability to which the property was subject or was assumed by the taxpayer. Use the worksheet below to determine the total capital contributions to enter on this line.

The taxpayer must add back these royalty payments to the extent deductible in calculating federal taxable income. This addback applies unless the taxpayer meets one of the following four exceptions:

  1. The addback will not apply to the portion of the royalty payment for which the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing evidence of the type and in the form specified by the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance that:
     1. the related member was subject to tax in New York or another state or possession of the United States, a foreign nation, or a combination of these on a tax base that included the royalty payment paid, accrued, or incurred by the taxpayer;
     2. the related member during the same tax year directly or indirectly paid, accrued, or incurred the portion of the royalty payment to a person that is not a related member; and
     3. the transaction giving rise to the royalty payment between the taxpayer and the related member was undertaken for a valid business purpose.
     1. the related member was subject to tax on, or measured by, its net income in New York, another state or possession of the United States, or a combination of these;
     2. the tax base for the tax included the royalty payment paid, accrued, or incurred by the taxpayer; and
     3. the aggregate effective rate of tax applied to the related member in those jurisdictions is not less than 80% of the statutory rate of tax that applied to the taxpayer under § 210 for the tax year.
     1. the royalty payment was paid, accrued, or incurred to a related member organized under the laws of a country other than the United States;
     2. the related member’s income from the transaction was subject to a comprehensive income tax treaty between that country and the United States;
     3. the related member was subject to tax in a foreign nation on a tax base that included the royalty payment paid, accrued, or incurred by the taxpayer;
     4. the related member’s income from the transaction was taxed in that country at an effective rate of tax at least equal to that imposed by New York; and
     5. the royalty payment was paid, accrued, or incurred pursuant to a transaction that was undertaken for a valid business purpose and using terms that reflect an arm’s-length relationship.

     If you are claiming one of these exceptions, mark an X in the box and see the instructions for line 5a.

     Line 5a

     Enter the number of the applicable exception (see above) and the amount of royalty payments excluded from entire net income. Attach a statement to your return explaining how you meet each requirement for the exception.

     Line 6

     A corporation is deriving receipts from activity in this state if it has receipts within this state of $1.138 million or more in the tax year. If you are not protected by Public Law 86-272 and are subject to tax solely as a result of deriving receipts in New York, mark an X in the box. See § 209.1.

     • regulated investment company as defined in IRC § 851 that is subject to tax under IRC § 852.

     In addition, you must mark an X in the 1120-REIT or 1120-RIC box in Part 1, Section C, line 1, to avoid an erroneous assessment or delayed refund.

     Line 1c: Fixed dollar minimum tax

     The fixed dollar minimum tax is determined by the corporation’s New York receipts. Enter your New York receipts in the first box. If you do not have New York receipts, enter 0. To avoid an erroneous assessment or a delay in your refund, you must enter an amount on this line.

     New York receipts equal the amount reported in Column A, line 55 of Part 6, Computation of business apportionment factor.

     For a short period, compute New York receipts by dividing the amount of New York receipts for the tax year by the number of months in the tax year and multiplying the result by 12.

     See Tax rates schedule to determine the applicable fixed dollar minimum tax to enter on line 1c. The fixed dollar minimum tax may be reduced for short periods.

     Period	Reduction
     Not more than six months	50%
     More than six months but not more than nine months	25%
     More than nine months	None

     A homeowners association, as such term is defined in IRC § 528(c), without regard to § 528(c)(1)(E), with no federal taxable income, as the term is defined in § 528(d), is not subject to the fixed dollar minimum tax and must enter 0 on line 1c. In addition, you must mark an X in the 1120-H box on Part 1, Section C, line 1, to avoid an erroneous assessment or delayed refund.

     Line 2: Tax due

     Line 3: Tax credits used

     Complete Part 7 and enter the total amount of the tax credits you are claiming to reduce your tax due. If you are claiming more than one tax credit, see Form CT-600-I Instructions for Form CT-600, for the order of application under Article 9-A.

     • Attach copies of all forms and schedules used. If you claim a tax credit without filing the appropriate tax credit claim form, the tax credit will be disallowed.
     • There are limited instances in which the use of a tax credit can reduce your tax below the fixed dollar minimum tax shown on line 1c. The manufacturer’s real property tax credit may reduce your tax to $25. The QEZE tax reduction credit (if you have a 100% zone allocation), the tax-free New York area excise tax on telecommunications credit (if you have a 100% area allocation), and the tax-free New York area tax elimination credit (if you have a 100% area allocation) may reduce your tax to $0.

     Line 5: Estimated tax penalty

     Form CT-222 is filed by a corporation to inform the Tax Department that the corporation meets one of the exceptions to reduce or eliminate the underpayment of estimated tax penalty. See § 1085(d).

     Line 20c: Overpayment

     Subtract line 20b from line 20a. This is your overpayment amount. Proceed to line 21.

     Unrequested refunds to be credited forward

     If the corporation overpays its tax, it will not automatically receive a refund. Instead, we will credit your overpayment to the following tax year unless you request a refund on line 24. We will notify you that the overpayment has been credited and explain how to request a refund of the credited amount. If you choose to request a refund of such credited amount, you must claim a refund of such overpayment prior to the original due date of the following year’s return.

     Lines 21 through 24

     You may apply an overpayment to your next state franchise tax period, or to your MTA surcharge for this period, or you may have it refunded. Indicate on these lines the amount of overpayment you want credited or refunded.

     Lines 25 and 26

     If you request a refund of unused tax credits, enter the total amount on line 25. If you request tax credits to be credited as an overpayment to next year’s return, enter the total amount on line 26. Do not include these amounts in the total credits claimed on Part 2, line 3; or Part 7, line 2 or 3. Attach the appropriate tax credit forms.

     Part 3: Computation of tax on business income base

     Note: All amounts entered on lines 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, and 18 must be entered as a positive number.

     • Business income is entire net income minus investment income and other exempt income.
     • Entire net income is federal taxable income as described under line 1 below, plus or minus certain New York State modifications.

     If you have federal capital gains or losses included in your federal taxable income that flow from items that qualify as New York investment capital, you must adjust federal taxable income on line 1 by recomputing the amount of your federal net capital gain income. In this recomputation:

     • You must net your federal capital gains and losses by the type of New York capital (business or investment) that generated the federal capital gain or loss, rather than netting business and investment capital gains and losses against each other.
     • Business capital losses are only allowed to be netted against business capital gains to the extent that there are business capital gains to absorb the business capital losses. Likewise, investment capital losses are only allowed to be netted against investment capital gains to the extent that there are investment capital gains to absorb the investment capital losses. When completing Form CT-3.1 the adjustment made for purposes of line 1 must be taken into consideration when reporting capital gains in excess of capital losses from investment capital.
     • The sum of investment income and other exempt income must not exceed entire net income.

     Line 1: Federal taxable income

     Generally, the amount to enter is your federal taxable income, before net operating loss and special deductions, as required to be reported to the U.S. Treasury Department. In addition, see below for instructions specific to different federal Forms 1120.

     Note: Any IRC § 250(a)(1)(A) amount deducted (as reduced by IRC § 250(a)(2)) and any IRC § 250(a)(1)(B)(i) amount deducted (as reduced by IRC § 250(a)(2)) when computing federal taxable income must be added back to federal taxable income. However, as the amount reported on line 1 is before the special deductions amount reported on federal Form 1120 or Form 1120-C, no addition modification is required. See §§ 208.9(b)(24) and 208.9(b)(25).

     • If you file federal Form 1120:
       • use the amount from line 28.
       • If you file Form 1120-REIT:
         • use the amount from line 21.

         Note: If you were required to include in your calculation of real estate investment trust taxable income an IRC § 965(a) inclusion amount, such inclusion, as well as the corresponding IRC § 965(c) amount, is already reflected in the real estate investment trust taxable income amount. Any IRC § 965(c) amount deducted when computing real estate investment trust taxable income must be added back to real estate investment trust taxable income. The add back of the IRC § 965(c) deduction amount is reported on Form CT-225. See § 208.9(b)(23).

         • If you file Form 1120-RIC, use the sum of:
           • investment company taxable income (as defined in IRC § 852(b)(2), modified for IRC § 855, but before the deduction for dividends paid and the deductions for tax imposed under IRC §§ 851(d)(2) and 851(i)) plus
           • the amount taxable under IRC § 852(b)(3).
           • If you file federal Form 1120-H:
             • use the amount from line 19.
             • If you file federal Form 1120-POL:
               • use the amount from line 19.
               • If you file federal Form 1120-C:
                 • use the amount from line 25c.
                 • If you file Form 1120-F:
                   • use the amount from Section II, line 29.
                   • If you are a member of a federal affiliated group that files a consolidated return:
                     • complete a pro forma 1120 reporting the federal taxable income you would have been required to report on a separate federal tax return, and attach a copy of the federal consolidating workpaper indicating your separate taxable income before any elimination of intercorporate transactions included in the federal consolidated return.
                     • all transactions between you and each such domestic international sales corporation must be eliminated from your receipts, expenses, assets, and liabilities. Your entire net income must not include the amount of the deemed distribution of current income, if any, that was included in your federal taxable income. The tax-exempt domestic international sales corporation itself has no franchise tax filing requirement.

                     Line 6: Subtraction modification for qualified banks

                     Enter the amount from Form CT-3.2, Schedule A, line 1.

                     Line 8

                     The amount entered on this line must not exceed your entire net income (line 7).

                     Line 12

                     An addback to business income is required when the presumptive holding period for qualification as investment capital is not met. See Form CT-3.1.

                     Line 19

                     When this line is reporting a loss, Form CT-3.4 must be filed to report such loss, and to make the irrevocable election to waive the carryback of such loss, if applicable.

                     Line 20

                     If line 19 is more than $5 million, multiply line 19 by 7.25% (0.0725). If line 19 is $5 million or less, multiply line 19 by 6.5% (0.065).

                     Qualified emerging technology companies and qualified New York manufacturers (for applicable definitions, see Part 1, Section A):

                     Compute your tax for this line as follows:

                     • Qualified emerging technology companies: Multiply line 19 by 4.875% (0.04875).
                     • Qualified New York manufacturers: Enter 0on this line.

                     All corporations: Enter the result on this line and on Part 2, line 1a.

                     Part 4: Computation of tax on capital base

                     The tax on the capital base is computed on the portion of the total business capital that is apportioned to New York State. Total business capital is the sum of business capital and the addback of capital previously reported as investment capital that subsequently does not meet the holding period requirement.

                     Business capital is defined as all assets, other than investment capital and stock issued by the taxpayer, minus liabilities not deducted from investment capital. It includes:

                     • only those assets the income, loss, or expense of which are properly reflected (or would have been properly reflected if not fully depreciated or expensed, or depreciated or expensed to a nominal amount) in the computation of entire net income for the tax year, and
                     • stock that generates, or could generate, other exempt income.

                     Lines 1 through 15

                     To determine the value of your assets for the capital base computations, you must include real property and marketable securities at fair market value. You must include all other property at the value shown on your books in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     Use lines 2 through 5 to adjust the value of the real property and marketable securities you reported on your federal return. If you are not required to complete the balance sheet on your federal tax return, use the amount that would have been reported on the federal return. If you are an alien corporation, only report the amounts that are effectively connected with your United States trade or business.

                     On lines 1 through 6:

                     1. Enter the values at the beginning of the year in column A.
                     2. Enter the values at the end of the year in column B.
                     3. Enter the average valuein column C.

                     Average value is generally computed quarterly if your usual accounting practice permits it. However, you may use a more frequent basis such as monthly, weekly, or daily. If your usual accounting practice does not permit a quarterly or more frequent computation of the average value of assets, you may use a semiannual or annual computation if it does not distort the average value.

                     Fair market value is the price (without deduction of an encumbrance whether or not the taxpayer is personally liable) at which a willing seller will sell and a willing purchaser will buy. You can generally find the fair market value of marketable securities from price quotes in financial newspapers. For the determination of the fair market value of real property, see TSB-M-85(18.1)C, Valuation of Real Property.

                     Short periods: If a tax return is for a period of less than 12 months, determine the amount of business capital by multiplying the average value by the number of months covered by the return and dividing by 12. See Tax Law § 210.2.

                     Line 4

                     Enter the fair market value of real property and marketable securities included on line 2.

                     Line 6

                     Enter the amount of all liabilities attributable to assets you entered on line 1, both long and short term. Use the same method of averaging you used to determine average value of assets.

                     Line 10

                     An addback to business capital is required when the presumptive holding period for qualifications of investment capital is not met. See Form CT-3.1 and § 208.5(d).

                     Line 15

                     Multiply line 13 by the tax rate of 0.1875% (0.001875).

                     Do not enter more than $5 million.

                     Qualified emerging technology companies, qualified New York manufacturers, cooperative housing corporations, and small business taxpayers:

                     Enter 0 on this line. (For applicable definitions, see Part 1, Section A.)

                     All corporations: Enter the result on this line and on Part 2, line 1b.

                     Part 5: Computation of investment capital for the current tax year

                     This part computes the amount of investment capital that is excluded from, or added back to, the tax on the capital base and is reported on Part 4, lines 8 and 10.

                     Note: You must file Form CT-3.1 and identify investment capital items or the subtraction will be disallowed.

                     Part 6: Computation of business apportionment factor

                     Include only the receipts, net income, net gains, and other items described in § 210-A and the applicable regulations that are included in your business income, determined without regard to the amount you subtracted on Part 3, line 6 (Subtraction modification for qualified banks), and without regard to any amount from investment capital that exceeds the 8% of entire net income limitation on gross investment income.

                     Note: Generally, you should report receipts from services on line 53 (Receipts from other services/activities not specified).

                     Columns A and B

                     In this section, we provide specific directions for Column A (New York State column) and Column B (Everywhere column) as follows:

                     • New YorkState column: Refer to the specific line instructions to determine New York State amounts and enter those amounts in Column A for each line.
                     • Everywherecolumn: Enter 100% of the amount of the item you report on a line in Column B, unless otherwise specified.

                     If only one line of Part 6 applies to your business, you must still complete both columns for that line. Skip a line only if both the numerator (column A) and the denominator (column B) are zero.

                     If you have no receipts required to be included in the denominator of the apportionment factor, you must mark the box at the beginning of Form CT-3, Part 6, Computation of business apportionment factor.

                     • owning property in New York State but not having federal taxable income, effectively connected income, or receipts from the rental, sale or lease of such property amounts, or
                     • the only income is dividends and net gains from the sales of stock or sales of partnership interests when the fixed percentage election is not made.

                     If you have any other everywhere receipts, this box does not apply. If you mark the box, you must attach a statement explaining why you have no receipts required to be included in the business apportionment factor.

                     If you fail to properly complete Part 6, we may impose a 100% business apportionment factor.

                     Section 210-A.2: Sales of tangible personal property, electricity and net gains from real property

                     Line 1

                     New York State column: Include receipts from the sale of tangible personal property in the New York State column when shipments are made to points in the state, or the destination of the property is a point in the state. Receipts from sales of tangible personal property and electricity that are traded as commodities, as defined in IRC § 475, are included on line 27.

                     Line 2

                     New York State column: Include receipts from the sale of electricity in the New York State column when they are delivered to points in the state. Include receipts from sales of tangible personal property and electricity that are traded as commodities, as defined in IRC § 475, on line 27.

                     Line 3

                     New York State column: Net the gains from the sales of real property located within the state against the losses from the sales of real property located within the state and enter the result (but not less than zero).

                     Everywhere column: Net the gains from the sales of real property located everywhere against the losses from the sales of real property located everywhere and enter the result (but not less than zero).

                     Section 210-A.3: Rentals of real and tangible personal property, royalties, and rights for certain closed-circuit and cable TV transmissions

                     Line 4

                     New York State column: Include receipts from rental of real and tangible personal property located within the state.

                     Line 5

                     New York State column: Include receipts of royalties from the use of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and similar intangible personal property within the state.

                     Line 6

                     New York State column: Include receipts from the sales of rights for closed-circuit and cable television transmissions of an event (other than events occurring on a regularly scheduled basis) taking place within the state as a result of the rendition of services by employees of the corporation, as athletes, entertainers, or performing artists, to the extent that those receipts are attributable to those transmissions received or exhibited within the state.

                     Section 210-A.4: Receipts from sale of, license to use, or granting of remote access to digital products

                     Line 7

                     For Article 9-A apportionment purposes, the term digital product generally means any property or service, or combination thereof, of whatever nature delivered to the purchaser through the use of wire, cable, fiber-optic, laser, microwave, radio wave, satellite or similar successor media, or any combination of these. It does not include legal, medical, accounting, architectural, research, analytical, engineering or consulting services.

                     If the receipt for a digital product is comprised of a combination of digital property and services, it cannot be divided into separate components and is one receipt sourced under the appropriate method below, regardless of whether it is separately stated for billing purposes.

                     New York State column: Apply the following methods in the order presented below to determine the amount of receipts to enter:

                     1. the customer’s primary use location of the digital product;
                     2. the location where the digital product is received by the customer or is received by a person designated for receipt by the customer;
                     3. the apportionment fraction for the preceding tax year for such digital product; and
                     4. the apportionment fraction in the current tax year for those digital products that can be sourced using the methods in items 1 and 2.

                     Note: Item 3 does not apply to your first tax period you are subject to Article 9-A.

                     You must exercise due diligence under each method to obtain the information necessary to source these receipts under a method before rejecting it and proceeding to the next method. The determination must be based on information known to the taxpayer or information that would be known to the taxpayer upon reasonable inquiry.

                     Section 210-A.5(a)(1): Qualified financial instruments, the 8% fixed percentage method

                     Line 8

                     For taxpayers other than non-captive real estate investment trusts and non-captive regulated investment companies

                     A qualified financial instrument means a financial instrument of the following types that is marked to market in the tax year by the taxpayer under IRC § 475 or § 1256:

                     • type A (loans not secured by real property): reported on lines 11 and 12
                     • type B (federal, state, and municipal debt): reported on lines 13 through 18
                     • type C (asset-backed securities and other government agency debt): reported on lines 19, 20, and 21
                     • type D (corporate bonds): reported on lines 22, 23, and 24
                     • type I (physical commodities): reported on line 27
                     • type H (other financial instruments): reported on lines 29 and 30
                     • type G (certain stock or partnership interests): also reported on line 30

                     Types A, B, C, D, and I

                     If the taxpayer has in the tax year marked to market a financial instrument within types A, B, C, D, and I, then any financial instrument within that same type that has not been marked to market by the taxpayer under IRC § 475 or § 1256 is also a qualified financial instrument in the tax year.

                     When the only loans that are marked to market under IRC § 475 or § 1256 are loans secured by real property, then no loans are qualified financial instruments.

                     Types G and H

                     When a financial instrument within either types H or G is marked to market, not all financial instruments within type H or G, respectively, are qualified financial instruments, as explained further below.

                     When reporting interest from other financial instruments on line 29, and net gains and other income from other financial instruments on line 30, marking to market one other financial instrument does not necessarily cause all other financial instruments to be qualified financial instruments. You must determine separately for each instrument whether other financial instruments are of the same type. Therefore, you may report more than one type of other financial instruments on either of lines 29 and 30, and some types may be qualified financial instruments while other types may not be qualified financial instruments.

                     You may use line 30 to report financial instruments under clause (G), clause (H), or both, of § 210-A.5(a)(2).

                     Use line 30 to report financial instruments under clause (G) only when the financial instrument is a qualified financial instrument and the 8% fixed percentage method has been elected.

                     Determining whether a type G financial instrument is a qualified financial instrument

                     When any stock that is business capital has been marked to market, all stock that is business capital is a qualified financial instrument. However, a stock that generates other exempt income, as defined in § 208.6-a, and that is not itself marked to market under IRC § 475 or § 1256 is not a qualified financial instrument, with respect to such other exempt income only, even if other stocks are marked to market in the tax year.

                     Marking to market stock that is business capital does not cause partnership interests in a widely held or publicly traded partnership that are not marked to market to be qualified financial instruments.

                     Stock that is investment capital is not a qualified financial instrument.

                     When any partnership interest in a widely held or publicly traded partnership has been marked to market, all partnership interests in a widely held or publicly traded partnership are qualified financial instruments.

                     Marking to market partnership interests in a widely held or publicly traded partnership does not cause stock that is business capital that is not marked to market to be a qualified financial instrument.

                     Marking to market a financial instrument of the type under clause (H) does not cause financial instruments of the type under clause (G) to be qualified financial instruments.

                     Determining whether a type H financial instrument is a qualified financial instrument

                     When a financial instrument type that falls under clause (H) has been marked to market, it does not necessarily cause all financial instruments under clause (H) to be qualified financial instruments. It is an instrument by instrument determination as to when instruments under clause (H) are of the same type. Therefore, you may have more than one type of other financial instruments under clause (H) to report on line 30.

                     Marking to market a financial instrument of the type under clause (G) does not cause financial instruments of the type under clause (H) to be qualified financial instruments.

                     Non-captive real estate investment trusts and non-captive regulated investment companies

                     Qualified financial instrument means a financial instrument in types A (loans not secured by real property), B (federal, state, and municipal debt), C (asset-backed securities and other government agency debt), D (corporate bonds), I (physical commodities), H (other financial instruments), and G (certain stock or partnership interests), regardless of whether any assets have been marked to market under IRC § 475 or § 1256. Provided, it does not include loans secured by real property, stock that is investment capital, and stock that generates other exempt income with respect to such other exempt income only.

                     Electing the 8% fixed percentage method

                     Taxpayers may elect to use the 8% fixed percentage method to apportion business receipts from qualified financial instruments. This election is irrevocable, applies to all qualified financial instruments, and must be made on an annual basis on the original timely filed return (determined with regard to valid extensions of time for filing) by marking an X in the box on line 8. If you do not mark the box but still apportion qualified financial instrument receipts by 8%, you will be considered to have made the election and to have marked the box.

                     General lines 9 through 53 instructions

                     For all financial instruments that do not meet the definition of a qualified financial instrument, or for instruments that meet the definition of a qualified financial instrument where the 8% fixed percentage method election is not in effect, use the customer-based sourcing rules as detailed in the specific line instructions for lines 9 through 27, 29, and 30.

                     Worksheets A, B, and C of these instructions compute certain amounts for lines 10, 12, 21, 24, 28, and 30 of Part 6.

                     When any financial instrument has been marked to market that is described on:

                     1. either line 11 or 12, mark the boxes on both lines 11 and 12, and all financial instruments reported on such lines are qualified financial instruments (Type A financial instruments);
                     2. any of lines 13 through 18, mark the box above line 13, and all financial instruments reported on such lines are qualified financial instruments (Type B financial instruments);
                     3. any of lines 19, 20, and 21, mark the box above line 19, and all financial instruments reported on such lines are qualified financial instruments (Type C financial instruments);
                     4. any of lines 22, 23, and 24, mark the box above line 22, and all financial instruments reported on such lines are qualified financial instruments (Type D financial instruments);
                     5. line 27, mark the box above line 27, and all financial instruments reported on line 27 are qualified financial instruments (Type I financial instruments);
                     6. line 28, mark the box above line 28;
                     7. line 29, mark the § 210-A.5(a)(2)(H) box above line 29;
                     8. line 30, due to clause (H), mark the § 210-A.5(a)(2)(H) box above line 29; and
                     9. line 30, due to clause (G), mark the § 210-A.5(a)(2)(G) box above line 29.

                     A marked qualified financial instrument (QFI) box does not indicate which method of sourcing (8% fixed percentage method or customer-based sourcing rule) is being used to apportion such instruments. Also, because you may report more than one type of financial instrument on lines 28, 29, and 30, when the QFI box above line 28 is marked, or one of the boxes above lines 29 is marked:

                     • in the case of line 28, it does not indicate that all financial instruments being reported on line 28 are qualified financial instruments, and
                     • in the case of lines 29 and 30 it does not indicate that all financial instruments being reported on lines 29 and 30 are qualified financial instruments.

                     For purposes of these apportionment instructions, an individual is deemed to be located in New York State if the billing address is in the state. A business entity is deemed to be located in New York State if its commercial domicile is located in the state.

                     Use the following methods in order to determine the commercial domicile of a business entity, based on known information, or information that would be known upon reasonable inquiry:

                     1. The seat of management and control of the business entity.
                     2. The billing address of the business entity in the taxpayer’s records.

                     You must exercise due diligence before rejecting the first method and proceeding to the second method.

                     For purposes of these apportionment instructions, registered securities broker or dealer means a broker or dealer registered as such by the Securities and Exchange Commission or a broker or dealer registered as such by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission, and includes an over-the-counter derivatives dealer as defined under regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (17 CFR 240.3b-12).

                     The amount of such interest expense is:

                     • the interest expense associated with the sum of the value of the taxpayer’s repurchase agreements where the taxpayer is the seller or borrower, plus

                       • the numerator of which is:
                         • the amount of receipts from sales of physical commodities actually delivered to points within the state, or,

                         Report all marked to market net gains on this line for all financial instruments.

                         For the purposes of computing marked to market net gains for this line, marked to market means that a financial instrument is treated by the taxpayer as sold for its fair market value on the last business day of the taxpayer’s tax year, despite no actual sale having taken place, under IRC § 475 or § 1256.

                         The term marked to market gain or loss means the gain or loss recognized by the taxpayer under IRC § 475 or § 1256 because the financial instrument is treated as sold for its fair market value on the last business day of the tax year.

                         Report all marked to market net gains on this line.

                         If you did elect the 8% fixed percentage method:

                         • use that method to source marked to market net gains for all financial instruments that are qualified financial instruments.
                         • use the customer-based sourcing rule below to source the marked to market net gains for those financial instruments that are not qualified financial instruments.

                         If you did not elect the 8% fixed percentage method, use the customer-based sourcing rule below to source all marked to market net gains for all financial instruments.

                         New York State column: To determine the amount of marked to market net gains to include on line 28 for financial instruments described on any specific line of Form CT-3, Part 6, multiply the gains by a fraction as follows:

                         • numerator—the amount included in the numerator of the apportionment fraction for the net gains from actual sales of financial instruments reported on that same specific line of Form CT-3, Part 6.
                         • denominator—the amount included in the denominator of the apportionment fraction for the net gains from actual sales of the financial instruments reported on that same specific line of Form CT-3, Part 6.

                         Everywhere column: Enter 100% of the marked to market net gains from financial instruments for which the amount to be included in the New York State column is determined in the New York State column section above.

                         New York State column: If financial instruments that are described on any certain line of Form CT-3, Part 6, have marked to market net gains, but there are no actual sales of financial instruments reported on that same certain line of Form CT-3, Part 6, or if there are actual sales of financial instruments reported on that same certain line of Form CT-3, Part 6, but those actual sales resulted in a net loss, determine the amount of the marked to market net gains to include on line 28 for those same financial instruments by multiplying such marked to market net gains by a fraction as follows:

                         • numerator—the sum of the amounts entered in the New York State column for Part 6, lines 9 through 30.
                         • denominator—the sum of the amounts entered in the Everywhere column of Part 6, lines 9 through 30.

                         Everywhere column: Enter 100% of the marked to market net gains from financial instruments for which the amount to be included in the New York State column is determined in the New York State column section above.

                         However, when sourcing the marked to market net gain from loans secured by real property, always use customer-based sourcing (even when the 8% fixed percentage method election was made). If using customer-based sourcing to source such marked to market net gains, when § 210-A.5(a)(2)(j)(iii) applies, never include any amounts sourced under the 8% fixed percentage method election in computing the New York State aggregate marked to market factor in Part 2 of Worksheet C.

                         Include clause (G) financial instruments only when the 8% fixed percentage method is elected. Include the following clause (G) instruments:

                         • dividends and net gains from stock that is business capital if you have, in the tax year, marked to market any stock under IRC § 475 or § 1256; provided dividends that qualify as other exempt income should not be included; and
                         • net gains from the sale of partnership interests in widely held or publicly traded partnerships if you have, in the tax year, marked to market any partnership interest in a widely held or publicly traded partnership under IRC § 475 or § 1256.

If the taxpayer receives any of the receipts reported on lines 31 through 35 as a result of a securities correspondent relationship that the taxpayer has with another broker or dealer (with the taxpayer acting in this relationship as the introducing or clearing firm), those receipts are deemed generated within the state using the rules for lines 31 through 37, provided the amount of those receipts excludes the amount the taxpayer is required to pay to the correspondent firm for the correspondent relationship, as applicable.

                         If the taxpayer is unable to determine the mailing address of the customer from its records, include 8% of the receipts in the numerator of the apportionment fraction.

                         Apply the following methods in the order presented below to determine the amount of receipts included in the New York State column:

                         1. the location where the benefit is received;
                         2. delivery destination;
                         3. the apportionment fraction for such receipts within the state determined according to § 210-A.10 for the preceding tax year; and
                         4. the apportionment fraction for the current tax year determined according to § 210-A.10 for those receipts that can be sourced using the sourcing method in item 1 or 2.

                         Note: Item 3 does not apply to your first tax period for which you are subject to Article 9-A.

                         You must exercise due diligence under each method to obtain the information necessary to source these receipts under a method before rejecting it and proceeding to the next method. The determination must be based on information known to the taxpayer or information that would be known to the taxpayer upon reasonable inquiry.

                         Section 210-A.11: Discretionary adjustments

                         Line 54

                         If it appears that the apportionment fraction determined according to § 210-A does not result in a proper reflection of the taxpayer’s business income or capital within the state, the Commissioner of Taxation and Finance is authorized in their discretion to adjust it, or the taxpayer may request that the commissioner adjust it. This is done by:

                         1. excluding one or more items in such determination,
                         2. including one or more other items in such determination, or
                         3. any other similar or different method calculated to fairly and properly apportion the business income and capital reasonably attributed to the state.

                         The party seeking the adjustment bears the burden of proof to demonstrate that the apportionment fraction determined according to § 210-A does not result in a proper reflection of the taxpayer’s business income or capital within the state and that the proposed adjustment is appropriate.

                         Where you have received approval from the commissioner to make such adjustment, use line 54 to report it. Do not use line 54 to report an adjustment unless you have received the approval of the commissioner. If you have received the approval of the commissioner, you must attach a copy of such approval to your return. If you have not received the approval of the commissioner before filing this return, you must file using the statutory rules for apportionment. You may file an amended return after you have received approval.

                         Calculation of business apportionment factor

                         Line 56

                         The business apportionment factor should be shown as a decimal, not a percent. When computing the business apportionment factor, round to 6 decimal places. For example, 5,000/7,500 = 0.6666666 = 0.666667. Note: If all of your receipts are New York State receipts, enter decimal as 1.000000.

In determining such total gross amounts for each line, deduct any cost incurred to acquire the securities. When this results in a negative proceed amount for an individual security reported on a line, such negative amount is not limited to zero, and is netted against any positive proceed amounts for securities also reported on the same line.

                         1.2. For all lines, row c, divide the amount in row a by the amount in row b, and enter the result rounded to four decimal places; however, if either the amount in row a or the amount in row b is equal to zero, enter 0. This is the New York State gross proceeds factor for each respective line. It is used to compute the row e (New York State) amount for all lines.

                         1.3. For all lines, row d, enter the Everywhere receipts for that line’s category of receipts, but if the result is less than zero, enter 0.

                         1.4. For all lines, row e, multiply the factor in that line’s row c (the New York State gross proceeds factor) by the amount in that line’s row d, and enter the result. If the result is zero, enter 0.

                         Condition 2: If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect (use for a specific line when Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is marked and the QFI box pertaining to that specific line is also marked):

                         2.1. Leave rows a, b, and c blank, for such specific line(s).

                         2.2. For such specific lines, row d, enter the Everywhere receipts for that line’s category of receipts, but if the result is less than zero, enter 0.

                         2.3. In row e, for such specific line(s), multiply row d by 8% (0.08) and enter the result; however, if the result is an amount equal to zero, enter 0 in row e.

                         Where are the amounts calculated on Worksheet A entered?

                         The amounts entered or calculated in rows a, b, and c, for all lines, are only used for Worksheet A calculations and do not get transferred to any other form or worksheet. The amounts entered or calculated in rows d and e need to be entered on Form CT-3, as follows:

                         Amount from Worksheet A	Amount is entered on

                         General information

                         This worksheet computes certain amounts for Form CT-3, Part 6, line 30. See the line 30 instructions in Part 6 and also the specific instructions below. In the instructions below, all lines refers to all lines 30.1 and 30.2, and lines 30.3, 30.4, 30.5, and 30, and specific rows (a or b) are indicated to clarify which rows of these lines the specific instruction applies to. Note: Lines 30.1 through 30.5 are specific to this worksheet only. Since Form CT-3, Part 6, line 30 is comprised of different types of receipts that have to be netted separately, these receipt amounts are shown separately on lines 30.1 through 30.5.

                         Line instructions for Worksheet B

                         Part 1

                         Report only clause (H) receipts in Part 1.

                         Step 1: Lines 30.1 and 30.2, row a

                         Regardless of whether or not the fixed percentage method is in effect for lines 30.1 and 30.2, for row a (Everywhere), follow the applicable Form CT-3-I, Part 6, line 30 instructions to determine the amount of everywhere receipts, except that if the amount is less than zero, enter 0.

                         When you have net gains from sales of more than one type of other financial instruments, use separate lines 30.1 to report sales of all other financial instruments of each such type. The same is true for lines 30.2 when reporting other income from other financial instruments.

                         If you have receipts reportable on lines 30.1 or 30.2 from more than three separate types of other financial instruments, use an additional line 30.1 or line 30.2 for each additional separate type of other financial instrument for which you have net gains (line 30.1) or other income (line 30.2); include the amounts from these additional lines in the same manner as you would for the three lines 30.1 and 30.2 provided on the worksheet, as you complete the steps below, as applicable.

                         Step 2: Lines 30.1 and 30.2, row b

                         Complete lines 30.1 and 30.2, row b (New York State), using the instructions for Condition 1 or Condition 2, or both, as applicable.

                         Condition 1: If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is not in effect (Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is not marked); or if the receipts from line 30.1 or 30.2 do not represent receipts from qualified financial instruments (see instructions for Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8):

                         1.1. For such lines 30.1 and 30.2, row b, follow the applicable line 30 instructions to determine the amount of New York State receipts, except that if the amount is less than zero, enter 0. Use a separate line 30.1 for net gains from sales of all other financial instruments of each certain type, and use a separate line 30.2 for other income from all other financial instruments of each certain type.

                         Condition 2: If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect (Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is marked) and:

                         2.1. the clause (H) QFI box is not marked on Form CT-3, Part 6, above line 29, then lines 30.1 and 30.2, row b, are completed in the same manner as if the fixed percentage method is not in effect (see above instructions).

                         2.2. the clause (H) QFI box is marked on Form CT-3, Part 6, above line 29, and the receipts to be reported on a line 30.1 or 30.2 represent receipts from qualified financial instruments (see instructions for Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8), then for such lines 30.1 or 30.2, row b, multiply row a, for each respective line, by 8% (0.08) and enter the result; however, if the result is an amount equal to zero, enter 0 in row b. Use a separate line 30.1 for net gains from sales of all other financial instruments of each certain type, and use a separate line 30.2 for other income from all other financial instruments of each certain type.

                         Part 2

                         Report only clause (G) receipts in Part 2.

                         Part 2 of Worksheet B must only be completed if the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect. If Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is not marked, leave lines 30.3, 30.4, and 30.5 blank and continue with Totals of Parts 1 and 2 instructions below; otherwise, continue with Step 1 below.

                         Step 1: Lines 30.3 and 30.4, rows a (Everywhere) and b (New York State)

                         If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect and you have marked to market any stock that is business capital under IRC § 475 or § 1256 in the tax year, complete substep 1.1 below; otherwise, leave lines 30.3 and 30.4 blank and continue with Step 2 below.

                         1.1. Enter on line 30.3, row a, 100% of dividends from stock that is business capital, provided that dividends that qualify as other exempt income should not be included. Enter on line 30.4, row a, 100% of net gains from sales of stock that is business capital; if the amount is less than zero, enter 0.

                         1.1.1. For lines 30.3 and 30.4, row b, multiply row a, for each respective line, by 8% (0.08) and enter the result; however, if the result is an amount equal to zero, enter 0 in row b.

                         Step 2: Line 30.5, rows a (Everywhere) and b (New York State)

                         If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect, and you have marked to market any partnership interest in a widely held or publicly traded partnership under IRC § 475 or § 1256 in the tax year, complete substep 2.1, below; otherwise leave line 30.5 blank and continue with Totals of Parts 1 and 2 below.

                         2.1. Enter on line 30.5, row a, 100% of net gains from sales of partnership interests in widely held or publicly traded partnerships; if the amount is less than zero, enter 0.

                         2.1.1. In line 30.5, row b, multiply row a, for each respective line, by 8% (0.08) and enter the result; however, if the result is an amount equal to zero, enter 0 in row b.

                         Totals of Parts 1 and 2

                         Step 1: Line 30, rows a and b

                         2.1. For line 30, row a, enter the sum of the amounts in row a, lines 30.1 through 30.5.

                         2.2. For line 30, row b, enter the sum of the amounts in row b, lines 30.1 through 30.5.

                         Where are the amounts calculated on Worksheet B entered?

                         The amounts entered or calculated on lines 30.1 through 30.5 are used to compute the line 30 totals and do not get transferred to any other form or worksheet; the line 30 totals need to be entered on Form CT-3 as follows:

                         Amount from Worksheet B	Amount is entered on
                         Line 30b (Total New York State)	Form CT-3, Part 6, line 30 New York State (column A)

                         General information

                         Note: You must first complete Worksheets A and B, and lines 9 through 27, 29, and 30 of Form CT-3, Part 6; then, follow the steps below, in order, to complete Worksheet C.

                         This worksheet computes the amounts for Form CT-3, Part 6, line 28. See the Form CT-3, Part 6, line 28 instructions and also the specific instructions below. For purposes of Worksheet C, § 210-A.5(a)(2)(J)(ii) is referred to as J(ii), and § 210-A.5(a)(2)(J)(iii) as J(iii). J(ii) sources marked to market net gains based on the sourcing of net gains from actual sales of financial instruments of the same type. J(iii) is used when there are no actual sales of a type, or the actual sales of a type resulted in a net loss for that type.

                         Part 1 of the worksheet computes marked to market net gains for those financial instruments that are described on Form CT-3, Part 6, lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and 30, and that have been marked to market. Row b is broken out into subcolumns for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30. For each such line, only one of the subcolumns will apply for that line, depending on the sourcing rule that applies for that line; the subcolumns that do not apply should be left blank.

                         Part 2 of the worksheet is generally only applicable if the 8% fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is not in effect. However, if the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect, and you have marked to market net gains reportable on line 10 of the worksheet, you may have to complete Part 2 of the worksheet, as instructed further below. Part 2 computes the New York State aggregate marked to market factor. This factor is used to determine New York State marked to market net gains under J(iii) in Part 1, as per the specific line instructions under Customer-based sourcing below.

                         Line instructions for Worksheet C

                         If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect (Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is marked), you must complete the steps under the 8% fixed percentage method elected instructions below to complete Worksheet C. Do not complete the steps under the Customer-based sourcing instructions, unless specifically instructed to do so for a certain line.

                         If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is not in effect (Form CT-3, Part 6, line 8 box is not marked), you must complete the steps under the Customer-based sourcing instructions below to complete Worksheet C. Do not complete the steps under the 8% fixed percentage method elected instructions.

                         Regardless of whether or not the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect, use a separate line 30 for marked to market net gains from all other financial instruments of one same certain type. If you need more than three lines 30, use an additional line 30 for each separate type of other financial instrument for which you have marked to market net gains; include the amounts from these additional lines in the same manner as you would for the three lines 30 provided on the worksheet, as you complete the steps below, as applicable.

                         8% fixed percentage method elected

                         When the 8% fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect, follow the instructions for Condition 1 or Condition 2 below, whichever applies.

                         When Condition 1 applies, only complete Part 1 of Worksheet C. Leave the Part 1, J(ii) Totals section blank.

                         When Condition 2 applies, you may need to complete Part 2 of the worksheet and the Part 1, J(ii) Totals section.

                         Condition 1: If you do not have marked to market net gains reportable on line 10 of this worksheet, complete steps 1 and 2 below (under these 8% fixed percentage method elected instructions) and do not complete any of the steps under the Customer-based sourcing instructions.

                         Condition 2: If you have marked to market net gains reportable on line 10 of this worksheet, you must determine the amounts to enter on line 10 by completing the applicable steps under Customer-based sourcing for line 10 only. When Condition 2 applies:

                         1. For line 10 only, complete steps 1.1 through 4.1.2 under Customer-based sourcing (do not complete step 5).
                         2. Complete all of steps 1 and 2 below (under these 8% fixed percentage method elected instructions) for all remaining lines (including lines 30-Stock and 30-Partnership, if applicable).

                         Step 1: Part 1, rows a and b

                         1.1. In row a (Everywhere), lines 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, all lines 30, 30-Stock, and 30-Partnership, enter 100% of your marked to market net gains for those financial instruments described on each such line (and described further in the lines corresponding line instructions in Form CT-3, Part 6), except that if the net amount is less than or equal to zero, enter 0.

                         Note:

                         • Use line 30 for marked to market net gains from other financial instruments. [§ 210-A.5(a)(2)(H)].
                         • If in the tax year you have marked to market any stock under IRC § 475 or § 1256, use line 30-Stock for marked to market net gains from sales of stock that is business capital; otherwise leave line 30-Stock blank. [§ 210-A.5(a)(2)(G)].
                         • If in the tax year you have marked to market any partnership interest in a widely held or publicly traded partnership under IRC § 475 or § 1256, use line 30-Partnership for marked to market net gains from sales of partnership interests in widely held or publicly traded partnerships; otherwise, leave line 30-Partnership blank. [§ 210-A.5(a)(2)(G)].

                         1.2. In row b (New York State), subcolumn 8%, lines 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, all lines 30, 30-Stock, and 30-Partnership, multiply row a, for each respective line, by 8% (0.08) and enter the result; if the result is equal to zero, enter 0. You must leave row b, subcolumn J(ii) and row b, subcolumn J(iii) blank for all such lines as they are not applicable when the 8% fixed percentage method sourcing is in effect for qualified financial instruments.

                         Step 2: Part 1, line 28, rows a and b

                         2.1. For worksheet line 28, row a, enter the sum of the amounts from row a for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, all lines 30, 30-Stock, and 30-Partnership.

                         2.2. For worksheet line 28, row b, enter the sum of all amounts from all applicable subcolumns in row b for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, all lines 30, 30-Stock, and 30-Partnership.

                         Customer-based sourcing

                         You must complete Parts 1 and 2 of Worksheet C when the 8% fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is not in effect.

                         To complete Worksheet C in this instance, follow Steps 1 through 5 below, in that order.

                         Note: Lines 30-Stock and 30-Partnership should not be completed as these lines are not applicable when customer-based sourcing is used. See § 210-A.5(a)(2)(G).

                         If the fixed percentage method for qualified financial instruments is in effect and you have marked to market net gains reportable on worksheet line 10, then you must use customer-based sourcing for the marked to market net gains for line 10 only. In this instance follow the instructions for Condition 2 under the 8% fixed percentage method elected instructions, above.

                         Step 1: Part 1, row a, and row b, subcolumn J(ii)

                         1.1. In row a, lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30, enter 100% of your marked to market net gains for those financial instruments described on each such line (and described further in the corresponding line instructions for Part 6), except that if the net amount is less than or equal to zero, enter 0.

                         1.2. Row b, subcolumn J(ii) - Subcolumn J(ii), lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30, is used to compute New York State marked to market net gains, for those financial instruments described on each such line, under the sourcing rules of J(ii). Follow the steps below to compute the subcolumn J(ii) amounts. Complete substeps 1.2.1 through 1.2.4 for each line (10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24,27, and all lines 30).

                         1.2.1. If the step 1.1 amount is equal to zero, for any line, enter 0 in row b, subcolumns J(ii) and J(iii), for that line.

                         1.2.2. For each line for which row a is not equal to zero, determine if you have actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain during the tax year, for that type of financial instrument. You had actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain during the tax year for a specific type of financial instrument if there is an amount greater than zero reported on that type of financial instrument’s corresponding line of Form CT-3, Part 6, column B (Everywhere). However, for line 30, you had actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain during the tax year for a type of financial instrument described in § 210-A.5(a)(2)(H) if there is an amount greater than zero reported on Worksheet B, on line 30.1 (used to report the same specific type of financial instruments), row a.

                         1.2.3. For each line for which Worksheet C, row a, is not equal to zero, if you did have actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain for the same specific type of financial instrument described on such line (as determined in substep 1.2.2 above), enter in row b, subcolumn J(ii), for such line, the product of: the amount in row a for such line, and a fraction, the numerator and the denominator of which are determined as follows:

                         • • For all such lines (except line 30): the numerator of the fraction for such line (except line 30) is the amount from Form CT-3, Part 6, column A (New York State) of the corresponding line; and the denominator of the fraction for such line (except line 30) is the amount from Form CT-3, Part 6, column B (Everywhere) of the corresponding line. However, if the numerator so determined is equal to zero, enter 0. For line 30, see the specific line 30 instruction below.
                           • Line 30: The numerator of the fraction for any specific line 30 is the amount from Worksheet B, line 30.1 (used to report the same specific type of financial instrument), row b (New York State). The denominator of the fraction for any specific line 30 is the amount from Worksheet B, line 30.1 (used to report the same specific type of financial instrument), row a (Everywhere). However, if the numerator so determined is zero, enter 0.

                           1.2.4. For each line for which row a is not equal to zero, if you did not have actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain for the same specific type of financial instrument described in that line (as determined in substep 1.2.2 above), leave row b, subcolumn J(ii) blank for that line.

                           Step 2: Part 1, J(ii) Total Everywhere, and J(ii) Total New York State

                           When you have completed Part 1, row a, and row b subcolumn J(ii), for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30, you must next complete the J(ii) Total lines for Everywhere and New York State, which are below line 30-Partnership. The J(ii) totals are needed to calculate the New York State aggregate marked to market factor in Part 2 of this worksheet, when applicable.

                           2.1. Enter in the J(ii) Total Everywhere line, the sum of the row a amounts for all lines that have an amount entered in row b, subcolumn J(ii) even if the amount entered is zero.

                           2.2. Enter in the J(ii) Total New York State line, the sum of the row b, subcolumn J(ii) amounts for all lines that have an amount entered in row b, subcolumn J(ii).

                           Step 3: Part 2

                           Part 2 of the worksheet computes your New York State aggregate marked to market factor which you will need to complete Part 1, row b, subcolumn J(iii), when applicable.

                           Never include any amounts sourced under the 8% fixed percentage method election when determining the amounts to include in the sums described in these step 3 instructions.

                           3.1. Line A: Enter the sum of: the J(ii) Total New York State amount from Part 1 of this worksheet plus the amounts from Form CT-3, Part 6, column A (New York State), lines 9 through 27, 29, and 30.

                           3.2. Line B: Enter the sum of: the J(ii) Total Everywhere amount from Part 1 of this worksheet plus the amounts from Form CT-3, Part 6, column B (Everywhere), lines 9 through 27, 29, and 30.

                           3.3. Line C: Divide the line A amount by the line B amount and enter the result, rounded to four decimal places.

                           Step 4: Part 1, row b, subcolumn J(iii)

                           4.1. Row b, subcolumn J(iii) - Subcolumn J(iii), lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30, is used to compute New York State marked to market net gains, for those financial instruments described on each such line, under the sourcing rules of J(iii). Follow the steps below to compute the subcolumn J(iii) amounts. Complete substeps 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 for each line (10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30):

                           4.1.1. For each line, if there is an amount greater than or equal to zero entered in row b, subcolumn J(ii), then leave row b, subcolumn J(iii) blank for that line. Note: When you had actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain for that type of financial instrument during the tax year, subcolumn J(ii) should have an amount entered, and subcolumn J(iii) should be left blank.

                           4.1.2. For each line, if you did not have actual everywhere sales that generated a net gain for the specific type of financial instrument described on that line (row b, subcolumn J(ii) was left blank per substep 1.2.4), enter in row b, subcolumn J(iii), for that line, the product of: the amount in row a (Everywhere) for that line, and the factor in Part 2, line C.

                           Step 5: Part 1, line 28, rows a and b

                           5.1. For line 28, row a (Everywhere), enter the sum of the amounts from row a (Everywhere) for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30.

                           5.2. For line 28, row b (New York State), enter the sum of all amounts from row b (New York State), subcolumns J(ii) and J(iii) for lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, and all lines 30.

                           Where are the amounts calculated on Worksheet C entered?

                           The amounts entered or calculated on Part 1, lines 10, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27, 30, 30-Stock, and 30-Partnership and Part 2, lines A, B, and C are only used to compute the line 28 marked to market totals in Part 1. Do not transfer these amounts to any other form or worksheet.

                           Enter the line 28 totals from Part 1 on Form CT-3 as follows:

                           Amount from Worksheet C	Amount is entered on
                           Line 28b (New York State)	Form CT-3, Part 6, line 28 New York State (column A)
                           Line 28a (Everywhere)	Form CT-3, Part 6, line 28 Everywhere (column B)

                           Part 7: Summary of tax credits claimed

                           Enter in the appropriate box the amount of each tax credit that is being used to reduce the Part 2, line 2 tax due amount. Properly complete all corresponding credit forms and attach them to the return.

                           Line 2:

                           Enter the total amount of any tax credits that you are claiming against your current year’s franchise tax here and on Part 2, line 3. For other credits not specified, enter the total amount of credit being claimed in the Other credits box and include this amount in the total. Generally, use the Other credits box only when a credit claim form for a newly-enacted tax credit was not developed in time to appear on Form CT-3.

                           Do not include any amount of tax credit requested as a refund on Part 2, line 25, or requested as a tax credit to be credited as an overpayment to next year’s return on Part 2, line 26.

                           If you are required to recapture a tax credit that was allowed in a previous reporting period and the result is a negative credit amount on your credit claim form, enter this negative amount using a minus sign (-) in the applicable box.

                           Line 3:

                           Enter the amount of those tax credits being claimed on Part 2, line 3, against your current year’s franchise tax that are refund eligible. Do not include any amount of credits actually requested as a refund on Part 2, line 25, or requested as an overpayment credited to next year’s tax on Part 2, line 26. For refund eligibility, refer to the individual credit forms and Form CT-600-I, Instructions for Form CT-600.
