Part II
Declaration and Signature Authorization of Partner or Member
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I am a partner or member of the above partnership and that I have examined a copy of the
partnership’s 2017 electronic income tax return and accompanying schedules and statements and to the best of my knowledge and
belief, they are true, correct, and complete. I further declare that the amounts in Part I above are the amounts shown on the copy of
the partnership’s electronic income tax return. I consent to allow my electronic return originator (ERO), transmitter, or intermediate
service provider to send the partnership’s return to the IRS and to receive from the IRS (a) an acknowledgement of receipt or reason
for rejection of the transmission, (b) the reason for any delay in processing the return or refund, and (c) the date of any refund. If
applicable, I authorize the U.S. Treasury and its designated Financial Agent to initiate an electronic funds withdrawal (direct debit)
entry to the financial institution account indicated in the tax preparation software for payment of the partnership’s federal taxes owed
on this return, and the financial institution to debit the entry to this account. To revoke a payment, I must contact the U.S. Treasury
Financial Agent at 1-888-353-4537 no later than 2 business days before the payment (settlement) date. I also authorize the financial
institutions involved in the processing of the electronic payment of taxes to receive confidential information necessary to answer
inquiries and resolve issues related to the payment. I have selected a personal identification number (PIN) as my signature for the
partnership’s electronic income tax return and, if applicable, the partnership’s consent to electronic funds withdrawal.
