                              GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Act 1982 of 2005 allows pass-through entities to file composite returns for nonresident members who elect to be included in 
the composite filing.  The pass-through entity must report its distributive share of income or other gain that is passed through 
to the members included on this return and subject to Arkansas income tax.

NOTE:  Pass-through entities include S Corporations, general partnerships, limited partnerships, limited liability partnerships, 
trusts, or limited liability companies.  Any entity that is taxed as a corporation or is a disregarded entity for federal income 
tax purposes is not considered a pass-through entity.

WHEN TO FILE

The due date is April 15th, for calendar year entities. If the due date of your return falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, 
the return will be considered timely filed if it is postmarked on the next business day.

EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE

If an extension is required, Form AR1055-CR should be completed and mailed by April 15, 2023.  If additional tax is owed, the 
amount must be paid by the original due date.  Attach the payment in U.S. Dollars to the completed Form AR1055-CR and mail 
to the address specified on Form AR1055-CR.

           Composite Income Tax Return Instructions

                                        (AR1000CR)

Each composite return must be filed in the name of the pass-through entity, and the member who signs the return is responsible 
for any assessments or deficiencies incurred by the return.  This requirement does not relieve any of the members from their 
personal liability in any way.

Only those members who must file Arkansas nonresident income tax returns as a result of their interest 
in a pass-through entity can be included in the composite return.  Members who were Arkansas residents, 
became Arkansas residents during the year, or who had income/losses from Arkansas sources other than from pass-through 
entities, must be excluded from the composite return. 

Note: A pass-through entity cannot be included as a member on a composite return. However, if a pass-through 
entity is a member, they must create and file a withholding passthrough return.

If filing an amended return, check the box at the top right corner of Form AR1000CR. Complete the return using the
