Assessment as a firm requires an executed partnership instrument and certified deed; non-compliance disallows partner payment deductions. Assessment as a firm requires a partnership instrument specifying individual partner shares and a certified copy of that instrument must accompany the return when assessment as a firm is first sought, certified by all non-minor partners or, after dissolution, by former partners and legal representatives of deceased partners. A firm once assessed remains so unless the constitution or shares change, in which case a certified revised instrument must be furnished. Certain failures by the firm cause a rule disallowing any deduction for payments to partners and make those payments not chargeable to tax under the relevant income provision.
