What’s New

The IRS will revise this December 2006 version of
Form 8825 only when necessary. Continue to use
this version of the form for tax years beginning
after 2006 until a new revision is issued.
Purpose of form. Partnerships and
S corporations use Form 8825 to report income
and deductible expenses from rental real estate
activities, including net income (loss) from rental
real estate activities that flow through from
partnerships, estates, or trusts.
Before completing this form, be sure to read:
● Passive Activity Limitations in the instructions for
Form 1065 or Form 1120S, or Passive Loss Limitation
Activities in the instructions for Form 1065-B,
especially for the definition of “rental activity.”
● Extraterritorial Income Exclusion in the
instructions for Form 1065, 1065-B, or 1120S.
Specific Instructions. Form 8825 provides space
for up to eight properties. If there are more than
eight properties, attach additional Forms 8825.
The number of columns to be used for
reporting income and expenses on this form may
differ from the number of rental real estate
activities the partnership or S corporation has for
purposes of the passive activity limitations. For
example, a partnership owns two apartment
buildings, each located in a different city. For
purposes of the passive activity limitations, the
partnership grouped both buildings into a single
activity. Although the partnership has only one
rental real estate activity for purposes of the

income and deductions for each building in
separate columns.
However, if the partnership or S corporation
has more than one rental real estate activity for
purposes of the passive activity limitations,
attach a statement to Schedule K that reports
the net income (loss) for each separate activity.
Also, attach a statement to each Schedule K-1
that reports each partner’s or shareholder’s
share of the net income (loss) by separate
activity (except for limited partners in an electing
large partnership). See Passive Activity Reporting
Requirements in the instructions for Form 1065,
Form 1065-B, or Form 1120S for additional
information that must be provided for each
activity.
Complete lines 1 through 16 for each property.
But complete lines 17 through 21 on only one
Form 8825. The figures on lines 17 and 18
should be the combined totals for all forms.
Do not report on Form 8825 any:
● Income or deductions from a trade or
business activity or a rental activity other than
rental real estate. These items are reported
elsewhere.
● Portfolio income or deductions.
● Section 179 expense deduction.
● Other items that must be reported separately
to the partners or shareholders.
● Commercial revitalization deductions.
Line 1. Show the kind of property rented out (for
example, “apartment building”). Give the street
address, city or town, and state.
Line 14. The partnership or S corporation may
claim a depreciation deduction each year for

rental
property
(except for land,
which
is not

|
|
|
depreciable). If the partnership or S corporation
placed property in service during the current tax
year or claimed depreciation on any vehicle or
other listed property, complete and attach Form
4562, Depreciation and Amortization. See Form
4562 and its instructions to figure the
depreciation deduction.
