The Form 1120 is used by cooperative associations to file their annual income tax return. The instructions for the 2024 Form 1120 have been released by the IRS and are now available on their website.

The instructions for the 2024 Form 1120 are largely the same as the instructions for the 2023 Form 1120. However, there are a few key changes that taxpayers should be aware of.

One of the most significant changes for the 2024 Form 1120 is the increase in the standard deduction. The standard deduction is a specific amount of income that taxpayers can deduct from their taxable income before calculating their tax liability. For the 2024 tax year, the standard deduction is $12,550 for single filers and $25,100 for married couples filing jointly.

Another important change for the 2024 Form 1120 is the increase in the child tax credit. The child tax credit is a tax credit that taxpayers can claim for each eligible child. For the 2024 tax year, the child tax credit is $2,000 per eligible child.

In addition to these changes, the instructions for the 2024 Form 1120 also include a number of other updates and clarifications. Taxpayers should carefully review the instructions before completing their return to ensure that they are claiming all of the deductions and credits that they are entitled to.

Who Must File Form 1120?

Form 1120 must be filed by all cooperative associations that are subject to U.S. income tax. This includes both domestic and foreign cooperative associations.

A cooperative association is a corporation or other organization that is owned by its members and operated for their benefit. Cooperative associations typically provide a variety of services to their members, such as marketing, purchasing, and financing.

When Is Form 1120 Due?

Form 1120 is due on the 15th day of the third month after the end of the cooperative association's tax year. For most cooperative associations, this means that Form 1120 is due on March 15th.

If the cooperative association is a calendar year taxpayer, then Form 1120 is due on April 15th. However, if the cooperative association has a fiscal year end that is not December 31st, then Form 1120 is due on the 15th day of the third month after the end of the cooperative association's fiscal year.

Where Can I Get Help With Form 1120?

The IRS provides a number of resources to help taxpayers with Form 1120. These resources include:

The Form 1120 instructions
The IRS website
IRS toll-free helpline

Taxpayers can also get help with Form 1120 from a tax professional, such as a certified public accountant (CPA) or an enrolled agent (EA).

Form 1120 is a complex tax return. However, by carefully following the instructions and using the resources that are available, taxpayers can ensure that they are filing their return correctly and claiming all of the deductions and credits that they are entitled to.
