- Updated April 03, 2025 - 11.00 AM - Admin, Tax990

What is IRS Form 8995?

Form 8995, Qualified Business Income Deduction Simplified Computation, is a supporting document filed with Form 990-T and other tax forms, allowing eligible taxpayers to calculate the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction and deduct up to 20% of their QBI from qualified trades or businesses, Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) dividends, and Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income.

When should Form 8995 be attached to Form 990-T?

For tax-exempt organizations filing Form 990-T, Form 8995 is used to calculate any applicable Qualified Business Income (QBI) deductions that can reduce unrelated business taxable income (UBTI). By completing this form, organizations can ensure they maximize any available deductions related to their Qualified Business Income.

What information is needed to complete Form 8995?

To complete Form 8995, you'll need the following information:

Qualified Business Income (QBI)

Qualified REIT Dividends and PTP Income or Loss

Taxable Income Before QBI Deduction

Net Capital Gain

Carryforwards

  • Complete the initial table by providing the following information:

    A.Trade, business, or aggregation name
