Hence, the capital interest exception can only apply when the partnership has both API holders and unrelated non-service partners.
(4)The partnership makes allocations to the API holder and to unrelated non-service partners under the same terms, priority, type, level of risk, and rate of return. 
(3)The terms of the allocations to the API holder and to unrelated non-service partners are identified in the partnership agreement as well as the partnership’s books and records, where the allocations are clearly separate and apart from other allocations and.

(1)All partnership allocations are made relative to the API holder’s IRC Section 704(b) capital account balance. Moreover, an allocation to an API holder will satisfy the capital interest exception only if: The Proposed Regulations would impose strict guidelines for what types of partnership allocations made pursuant to such an interest qualify under these criteria. Notwithstanding the general three-year holding period requirement for holders of an API, the tax law provides an exception for capital gains recognized with respect to a “capital interest.” Moreover, the law provides that this exception applies to a partner’s claim against total partnership capital that is commensurate with the partner’s contributed capital, or that is commensurate with the value of the partner’s capital received as taxable compensation. Capital Interest Exception & Other Exceptions Understanding what has been proposed can help us understand how the IRS views the new carried interest rules, and can give partnerships an idea of what to expect when the final regulations are released. The proposed regulations will become binding once they are finalized and published in the federal register, but taxpayers generally can rely on them prior to such time if they so choose. This holding period requirement also extends to the external sale of a partner’s API itself. 
President Trump’s landmark tax law altered the timeline for when gains recognized in regards to a carried interest ( i.e., an Applicable Partnership Interest, or API) could qualify for long-term capital gains treatment.īeginning in 2018, capital gains with respect to an API that do not satisfy a three-year holding period and that are allocated to an API holder must be recharacterized by the API holder from long-term to short-term.
