                               Instructions for Form 329 
                         Pass-Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit

Purpose of This Form
When a pass-through entity that is owned by both corporate and noncorporate members makes an election to pay the Pass-Through Busi-
ness Alternative Income Tax determined pursuant to section 3 of P.L. 2019, c.320 (C.54A:12-3), the members are allowed a tax credit. The 
amount of the credit is the member’s share of the tax paid and is shown on Schedule PTE-K-1, which is provided to the member by the pass-
through entity. A member can only claim a credit for payment of the tax made by the entity that is applicable to the same tax year.

Corporate members, other than S corporations, are allowed the credit against their regular tax (N.J.S.A. 54:10A-5(c)(1)) or their surtax 
(N.J.S.A. 54:10A-5.41). The credit cannot reduce the member’s tax liability below the statutory minimum tax.

Members that are S corporations are allowed a credit against their tax (N.J.S.A. 54:10A-5). For tax years beginning on and after Janu-
ary 1, 2022, the credit can be applied to the minimum tax and to payments made on behalf of nonconsenting shareholders (N.J.S.A. 54:10A-
5.23). S corporations can also choose to flow the current year’s credit through to their shareholders (if all shareholders are individuals, 
estates, or trusts) or apply the current year’s credit to their own Form PTE-100 if they elect to pay the Pass-Through Business Alternative 
Income Tax. Any carryover from prior years must be applied to the regular or minimum tax or to payments made on behalf of nonconsenting 
shareholders on Form CBT-100S. 

For tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2022, any excess credit will be refunded and can no longer be carried over.

Note: Fiscal year taxpayers whose tax year begins prior to January 1, 2022, must use the 2021 Form 329 when filing their 2022 return.

An exempt corporate member that is exempt from tax pursuant to section 3 of P.L.1945, c.162 (C.54:10A-3) can file Form A-3730 to request 
a refund of its share of the tax paid by the pass-through entity.

       If the taxpayer claims this credit on Form CBT-100, CBT-100U, CBT-100S, or BFC-1, a completed Form 329 and copies of all 
       PTE-K-1(s) received must be included with the return.

Combined Return Filers
If filing a combined return, this form must be completed by the member that earned the credit. All combined return filers must check the 
combined return filers box at the top of the form and complete Part II, Section A. See instructions for Part II.

       Taxpayers must include the appropriate credit form in the year the credit was earned even if they are not claiming the credit on 
       their tax return.

Part I – Calculation of the Allowable Credit Amount and Refund for CBT-100 and BFC-1 Filers only
For CBT-100 and BFC-1 filers, the allowable Pass-Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit is calculated in Part I. 

Line 5 – The minimum tax is assessed based on the New Jersey Gross Receipts as follows:
                               New Jersey Gross Receipts                 CBT-100/BFC-1
                               Less than $100,000                                      $500
                               $100,000 or more but less than $250,000                 $750
                               $250,000 or more but less than $500,000                 $1,000
                               $500,000 or more but less than $1,000,000               $1,500
                               $1,000,000 or more                                      $2,000

If a taxpayer is filing a separate return and is a member of an affiliated or controlled group that has a total payroll of $5,000,000 or more for 
the return period, the minimum tax is $2,000.  Tax periods of less than 12 months are subject to the higher minimum tax if the prorated total 
payroll exceeds $416,667 per month. The minimum tax is $2,000 for each member of a combined group that has nexus with New Jersey.

Line 7 – Taxpayers claiming multiple credits must list any credits already applied to the tax liability to ensure accuracy of the calculation for 
maximum credit allowable.

Part II – Calculation of the Allowable Credit Amount and Refund for CBT-100S Filers only
For CBT-100S filers, the allowable Pass-Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit is calculated in Part II.

                                New Jersey Gross Receipts                                  CBT-100S
                                Less than $100,000                                         $375
                                $100,000 or more but less than $250,000                    $562
                                $250,000 or more but less than $500,000                    $750
                                $500,000 or more but less than $1,000,000                  $1,125

If a taxpayer is filing a separate return and is a member of an affiliated or controlled group that has a total payroll of $5,000,000 or more for 
the return period, the minimum tax is $2,000.  Tax periods of less than 12 months are subject to the higher minimum tax if the prorated total 
payroll exceeds $416,667 per month. The minimum tax is $2,000 for each member of a combined group that has nexus with New Jersey.

Line 19 – Taxpayers claiming multiple credits must list any credits already applied to the tax liability to ensure accuracy of the calculation for 
maximum credit allowable.

Part III – Calculation of the Allowable Credit Amount and Refund for CBT-100U Filers only
For CBT-100U filers, the allowable Pass-Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit is calculated in Part III. 

For CBT-100U filers, and allowable Pass-Through Business Alternative Income Tax Credit for the current year is calculated in Part III. All 
combined return filers must complete Section A. 

Unitary Credits. If the pass-through entity is unitary with both the member and the combined group, the credit can be shared and used to 
reduce the total surtax and total Corporation Business Tax liability of the group. All combined return filers with a unitary credit must complete 
Section B.

Members Opting Not to Share Unitary Credits. If the member’s credit is unitary, the member can choose to share the unitary credit with the 
group. However, members are not required to share their credits. See N.J.S.A. 54:10A-4.6.i and TB-90(R), Tax Credits and Combined Re-
turns. In addition to Sections A and B, members that choose not to share their unitary credit must also complete Section C and fill in the oval 
at the top of the form to indicate they are not sharing the credit.

Nonunitary Credits. If the pass-through entity is not unitary with the combined group, the credit cannot be shared and can only be used to 
reduce the total surtax and total Corporation Business Tax liability of the member on income that was derived from the member’s activities 
that are independent of the unitary business of the combined group. Do not use Sections B and C to calculate the amount of a nonunitary 
credit. See “Calculation of Allowable Nonunitary Credit” in the instructions for Section A.

Section A – To be completed by ALL combined return filers
Line 25 – Enter the requested information for each pass-through entity that provided a Schedule PTE-K-1 to the member. If the pass-through 
entity is unitary with both the member and the combined group, enter the amount in the unitary column. If the entity is not unitary with the 
combined group, enter the amount in the nonunitary column.

Calculation of Allowable Nonunitary Credit. Do not use Sections B and C to calculate the allowable amount of a nonunitary credit. If the 
member has an amount on line 27b, calculate the allowable portion based on the tax liability attributable to the member’s income that was 
independent of the unitary group. The amount of credit calculated in addition to any other credits allowed cannot reduce the tax liability to an 
amount less than the statutory minimum tax. Include the allowable portion in the member’s column of Part I, Schedule A-3 of the CBT-100U. 
Any balance of available credit can be applied to the surtax that is attributable to the member’s income that was independent of the unitary 
group. Include this amount in the member’s column of Schedule A-5, Part II, line 4 of CBT-100U. Include a rider showing the calculations. 

Section B – To be completed by ALL combined return filers with unitary credits
This section calculates the amount of credit allowable for the group. If a member chooses not to share their unitary credit with the group, 
Section B must still be completed to ensure the credit allowed for the member does not exceed the amount that would otherwise be allowed 
against the group tax liability.

The amount of the credit calculated in this section cannot reduce the tax liability to an amount less than the aggregate statutory minimum 
tax of the group members.

Line 29 – Multiply the number of taxable group members by $2,000 and enter the result.

Line 31 – Combined groups claiming multiple credits must list any credits already applied to the group tax liability to ensure accuracy of the 
calculation for maximum credit allowable.

Section C
This section is used to calculate the amount of credit allowable for members that choose not to share their unitary credit with the group. 
Section C is completed based on the member’s share of the group tax liability. The amount of credit calculated in this section cannot reduce 
the tax liability to an amount less than $2,000. The amount of the credit is also limited to the amount that would otherwise be allowed against 
the group tax liability if the member had been sharing the credit. 

Line 40 – Members claiming multiple credits must list any credits already applied to the member’s tax liability to ensure accuracy of the 
calculation for maximum credit allowable.
