New York Form IT-203-GR-ATT-B Schedule B

This article explains how to complete New York Form IT-203-GR-ATT-B Schedule B for nonresident partners included in a Yonkers group return.

New York Form IT-203-GR-ATT-B Schedule B is used by a partnership that is filing a Yonkers group return for qualifying nonresident partners. This schedule helps the partnership list each participating nonresident partner and report that partner’s Yonkers-related self-employment earnings, tax, payments, balance due, or overpayment. Page 1 collects the partnership’s identifying information, the partner’s name and address, Social Security number, federal net earnings from self-employment, the part of those earnings allocated to Yonkers, and any exclusion amount. Page 2 continues the same partner rows by repeating the Social Security number and then calculating Yonkers taxable earnings, Yonkers nonresident earnings tax, estimated tax payments, balance due, overpayment, and other group return information. The form is row-based, so each partner must stay on the same row across both pages. If there are more partners than one schedule can hold, the partnership can complete additional Schedule B forms and then use the final schedule to report the grand totals where total boxes are provided.

How To File New York Form IT-203-GR-ATT-B Schedule B

Complete this schedule after you know which nonresident partners qualify and are participating in the Yonkers group return. Fill in the partnership information at the top of both pages, then complete one row for each partner. Keep the same partner order from page 1 to page 2 so the Social Security numbers and tax calculations match correctly.

If one Schedule B is not enough, prepare as many copies as needed. Submit every completed Schedule B with Form IT-203-GR. If more than one Schedule B is prepared, enter the grand totals from all Schedule B forms only on the last Schedule B. Leave the total boxes blank on the earlier copies. After the totals are complete, transfer the required total amounts to the proper line on Form IT-203-GR.

Use a minus sign for any negative amount. Enter dollar amounts carefully, and make sure cents are shown where required. Before filing, review each row to confirm that the partner’s name, Social Security number, Yonkers allocation, tax, payment, balance due, and overpayment are all matched to the correct person.
