day of the fourth, sixth, ninth, twelfth months
of the partnership's tax year for US income tax
purposes. Any additional amounts determined to
be due are generally to be paid with the filing
of Form 8804.
Tax rate.
The
withholding tax rate on a partner's share of effectively

for all other partners, such as individuals, partnerships,
and estates.
