Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about cooperative taxation
Cooperatives have unique tax treatment under Subchapter T of the Internal Revenue Code. They can exclude patronage dividends from taxable income and have special rules for calculating taxable income based on member transactions.
Patronage dividends are generally tax-deductible for the cooperative when properly allocated to members. Members then report these dividends as income, creating a single level of taxation.
Most cooperatives file Form 1120-C, the special income tax return for cooperatives. Exempt cooperatives may file Form 990 series, and all cooperatives must file information returns for patronage dividends.
No, most cooperatives are taxable entities. However, certain types like rural electric cooperatives and some agricultural cooperatives may qualify for tax-exempt status under specific sections of the tax code.
Form 1120-C is generally due by the 15th day of the 4th month after the end of the tax year. For calendar year cooperatives, this is April 15th, with extensions available.
