Paperless Schedules K-1 (565 or 568) for Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

What's New

The California Schedules K-1 (565 and 568) have been revised for 2007 to follow the federal Schedule K-1. See the Specific Instructions for these forms for more information.

General Information

FTB's Paperless Schedule K-1 Program is an effective and resourceful way to submit and process Schedules K-1 (565 or 568). Through the Paperless Schedule K-1 (565 or 568) Program, partnerships and LLCs, or their representatives, may file hundreds of Schedules K-1 (565 or 568) by CD or diskette, instead of sending paper schedules. It significantly reduces resources expended by businesses and FTB to produce, file, process, and store paper.

Our Paperless Schedules K-1 Program includes taxable years 2006 and 2007 Schedules K-1 (565 or 568). Formatting is easy for the two Schedules because they are almost identical in layout.

  • We provide TestWare for error-free formatting.

In January 2007, FTB began offering e-filing for Forms 565 and 568 and their associated Schedules, including Schedule K-1.

For more information about our business e-file program refer to FTB Pub. 1346B, Business e-file Guide for Software Developers and Transmitters, or search for business e-file.
