Form 590 P PDF Details

Navigating through the intricacies of state tax obligations can often seem overwhelming for nonresidents who earn their income through various business structures in California. The California Form 590-P serves as a crucial tool for such individuals or entities, offering a streamlined path to claim exemption from withholding on income already reported to the state. Specifically designed for nonresident S corporation shareholders, partners in partnerships, and LLC members, this certificate plays a pivotal role in ensuring compliance with the California Revenue & Taxation Code Section 18662. It essentially allows these payees to certify that the income from a California source, which is subject to distribution in the current year, has already been included on their California income tax returns for a prior year. By completing and filing this form, these entities can effectively communicate to the withholding agent—who retains the form for record-keeping purposes—that no additional withholding is required on this previously reported income. Moreover, the form is laden with instructions and stipulations that guide users through its proper completion, highlighting the necessary conditions under which it should be used, and detailing the implications of its misuse. Among other things, it advises against its use for backup withholding, foreign partners or members, California residents, or situations where the reported income is not yet reflected on the California tax return, guiding users towards other forms for such circumstances.

Instructions for Form 590-P

Nonresident Withholding Exemption Certificate for Previously Reported Income

References in these instructions are to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as of January 1, 2015, and to the California Revenue and Taxation Code (R&TC).

General Information

California Revenue & Taxation Code (R&TC) Section 18662 and related regulations require withholding of income or franchise tax by

S corporations, partnerships, or limited liability companies (LLCs) when distributions of money or property that represent California source income are made to S corporation shareholders, partnership partners, or LLC members that are nonresidents of California.

Distributions subject to withholding include, but are not limited to, distributions that represent current year’s income or unreported prior year’s California source income on the S corporation shareholder’s, partnership partner’s, or LLC member’s California income tax return.

However, no withholding is required if the total distributions of California source income to each S corporation shareholder, partnership partner, or LLC member is $1,500 or less during the calendar year. For more information on S corporation, partnership, or LLC withholding, get FTB Pub. 1017, Resident and Nonresident Withholding Guidelines.

Purpose

Use Form 590-P, Nonresident Withholding Exemption Certificate for Previously Reported Income, if you are a nonresident S corporation shareholder, partner in a partnership, or member of an LLC to certify an exemption from withholding on current year distributions of an S corporation’s, partnership’s, or LLC’s prior year California source income.

If you already reported the income represented by this distribution on your California tax return as income from California sources, submit Form 590-P to the S corporation, partnership, or LLC.

The S corporation, partnership, or LLC will be relieved of the withholding requirements for your share of this distribution when relying in good faith on a completed and signed Form 590-P.

Do not use Form 590-P if one of the following applies:

•Your withholding is for backup withholding.

•You are a foreign (non-U.S.) partner or member. There is no provision under R&TC Section 18666 to allow an exemption from withholding for a foreign partner or member.

•You are an S corporation shareholder, partner in a partnership, or member of an LLC who is a resident of California or who has a permanent place of business in California. Instead use Form 590, Withholding Exemption Certificate.

•Your income is not yet reported on your California tax return.

To request a waiver of withholding on payments of current year California source income, get Form 588, Nonresident Withholding Waiver Request.

To request a reduction in the standard 7% withholding rate, get Form 589, Nonresident Reduced Withholding Request.
