Activity Information
This section displays the entity information for activities included in the Limited Liability Company. The
Activities included in LLC
statement dialog lists all federal activities included in the LLC. If no data is present in the statement dialog, the LLC is a state unit only and no federal data entry is transferred to the LLC.
Extension
Use this section to calculate and print the extension voucher and extend the due date of the return. Form 3536 is a payment voucher only and, per state instruction, will not print when the amount due is either zero or blank. Form 3536 is a scannable form and handwritten amounts due are not acceptable. The balance due must be printed on the form from UltraTax CS.
Calculate extension
Enter
X
to calculate an amount (if any) for
2024
Form 3536 (LLC Extension Payment).
UltraTax CS also enters the applicable due date in the
Extended due date
field. UltraTax CS automatically enters
X
in this field if you enter an amount in the
Balance due on extension (Force)
field.
Extended due date
If an extension is printed by choosing File and then Print Extensions, or an entry is made in the
Calculate extension
field, the extended due date automatically appears in this field. Otherwise, the date manually entered in this field is used as the extended due date in the filing instructions and when calculating late filing penalties.
Extension payment actually made; reportable on Form 568
Each time you print the extension (via the File and then Print Extensions), UltraTax CS does the following:
calculates the extension payment amount and enters the amount in this field, and
prints this amount on Form 568, not on the extension.
Alternatively, you can overrule the calculated amount by entering the amount actually paid with the current-year extension in this field. UltraTax CS then displays the new amount in black.
note
To delete the overruled amount and restore the original calculated amount, right-click the field and choose Delete overrule.
To confirm the accuracy of the overruled amount, right-click the field and choose Acknowledge overruled data. UltraTax CS then disables the acknowledge functionality from the right-click menu. To restore the original amount later, you will need to manually enter the amount.
If desired, you can set a user preference to mark fields for which you overruled the calculated amounts and to list all overruled amounts in the Diagnostics window.
Balance due on extension (Force)
If you enter an amount in this field, UltraTax CS calculates the amount of total tax using the estimated payments and withholding entered, marks the
Calculate extension
field, completes the
Extended due date
field, and transfers the amount to the
Extension payment actually made; reportable on Form 568
field.
note
Form 3536 will not print if a zero (
0
) is entered in this field, per state instruction.

Additional payment
Original return:

The payment reduces the balance due for late interest and penalty calculations as of the date paid.
Amended return:
Include the amount paid with the original return or the amount refunded (as a negative amount) with the original return (along with additional payment, if any). The amount entered here is included on Form 568.
