INSTRUCTIONS
For individuals, there are three options in which a composite return may be filed. No other options or alternatives are allowed. A
review of the options will show that option 1 is very simple but more tax is paid. Option 2 lets you prorate the exemptions and deduc-
tions using the entity’s income. For option 3, a 6% tax rate is applied to the Georgia income. These options may be applied on a
member-by-member basis. Trusts, Estates, Corporations, and Partnerships should list their Georgia income and multiply it by the 6%
Georgia income tax rate. The personal exemption for the taxpayer and spouse is $2,700. The credit for dependents is $3,000.
Information required in each case: Nonresident partner’s or shareholder’s name, identification number, Georgia income, marital status
and tax due.
OPTION 1
