International

Form 5471, 8858 and 8865 Organizer Options to Turn Off Transfers from International Computes
The International Compute transfers information directly to the "face" of Form 5471, 8865, and 8858 Organizer pages. Unlike the Income Statement and Balance Sheet, which use hidden screens, the following schedules transfer information directly. By default, the transfer checkboxes below remain unchecked, allowing you to permit the transfer.
  • Form 5471 Schedule E
  • Form 5471 Schedule E-1
  • Form 5471 Schedule G
  • Form 5471 Schedule H
  • Form 5471 Schedule I (defaults to checked, no transfer)
  • Form 5471 Schedule I by Shareholder
  • Form 5471 Schedule I-1
  • Form 5471 Schedule J
  • Form 5471 Schedule M
  • Form 5471 Schedule P (defaults to checked, no transfer)
  • Form 5471 Schedule P by Shareholder
  • Form 5471 Schedule Q
  • Form 5471 Schedule R
  • Form 5471/Form 8990
  • Form 8858 Schedule H (959(b) Dividends and Return of Capital)
  • Form 8858 Schedule J
  • Form 8865 Schedule K-2, Part II, Sections 1 and 2
  • Form 8865 Schedule K-2, Part III, Section 1
  • Form 8865 Schedule K-2, Part III, Section 4, Line 1
  • Form 8865 Schedule K-2, Part V
Before transferring new results, the International Compute will delete all existing information in the specified schedules. To prevent additional transfers from International Compute from overwriting manual overrides entered in Organizer, ensure you select the appropriate options on the INTL Transfer Options pages within the Foreign Corporation (5471), Foreign Partnership (8865), and FDE and FB (8858) navigation tree. If you do not check these individual boxes, any overrides in Organizer will be lost during the next International Compute transfer to US5471, US8865, or US8858, even if the Organizer field is locked.
Transfer to US5471 and US8858 Available in Tax Year 2024 Binders
In the 2024 tax year, you can now transfer information from Form 5471 and Form 8858 using the International Computes screen to a top consolidation and foreign entity binder. A future release will enable transfers to Form 8865 Schedule K-2 and Form 5471 Schedule Q.
