The Form 8916 reconciles taxable income per the Schedule M-3 for the Forms 1120, 1120-L, or 1120-PC with the taxable income on mixed groups filing Form 1120, 1120-L, or 1120-PC. This is necessary because certain special adjustments are required to match taxable income of mixed groups as reported on the Schedule M-3 with taxable income they report on Forms 1120, 1120-L, or 1120-PC.
The Form 8916 is a required attachment to the 1120, 1120-L, and 1120-PC Schedule M-3s for certain filers referred to as Âmixed groups. If the Form 8916 is not available it cannot be attached to the Schedule M-3 submitted by these taxpayers, and these taxpayers will be unable to file an accurate and complete Schedule M-3 as required under Internal Revenue Code section 6011 (P.L. 105-206, Title II, Section 2001 through 2005). Also, if the Form 8916 is not available for filing by taxpayers, the Internal Revenue Service will be unable to accomplish the stated mission of the Schedule M-3 initiative supported by LMSB and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, which is obtaining greater transparency of taxpayer books and records.
This is a new form. Form 8916 reconciles taxable income per the Schedule M-3 for the Forms 1120, 1120-L, or 1120-PC with the taxable income on mixed groups filing Form 1120, 1120-L, or 1120-PC.
