§ 17.76 - Addition or withdrawal of partners.  


Latest version.
  • (a) General partners. When a business formed as a partnership, subject to the filing of a special tax return, admits one or more new general partners, the new partnership shall file a new special tax return and pay a new special tax in order to be eligible to receive drawback (in the case of claims covering spirits used during the suspension period described in § 17.21(b), the rate of special tax is zero). Withdrawal of general partners is covered by § 17.72(d).

    (b) Limited partners. Changes in the membership of a limited partnership requiring amendment of the certificate but not dissolution of the partnership are not changes that incur liability to additional special tax or that require the filing of a new special tax return.
