What Is Form 8813 Used For?

Form 8813 is used to pay the withholding tax based on effectively connected taxable income (ECTI) allocated to foreign partners. Essentially, this form is a voucher sent with a check or money order each quarter.

Who Should Use Form 8813?

Form 8813 should be used by U.S. partnerships with foreign partners whose income is effectively connected with a U.S. business or trade. In other words, the entity that files Forms 8804 and 8805 must also submit IRS Form 8813.

When Is Form 8813 Due?

Since the ECTI-based withholding tax is paid quarterly, in installments, Form 8813 is due by the 15th day of the 4th, 6th, 9th, and 12th months of the partnership’s tax year.

What Happens If Form 8813 Is Not Submitted?

If you use the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) to pay your taxes, you don’t need to submit Form 8813. However, if you pay by checks or money orders, you should include IRS Form 8813 with your payment to ensure it is properly processed.

Missing or underpaying those installments may result in an underpayment penalty under IRC Section 6655, which accrues from each missed due date until the balance is settled. To avoid this penalty, each quarterly payment must meet safe harbor requirements—generally, 25% of the annual estimated tax.

How and Where Do I File Form 8813?

You should file Form 8813 with the IRS, using the address provided on the official website. There is no e-filing option for this document; if you want to make your payments electronically, use the EFTPS.

#3. What if my Form 8813 is missing information?

If your Form 8813 is missing information, your payment may not be processed correctly, so you need to supply it as soon as possible. Submit a new form and indicate in the margins that it’s an amended one, or contact the IRS for guidance. Ideally, though, you should use a Form 8813 example as guidance when completing yours.

#6. Can I correct mistakes on Form 8813? 

You can correct mistakes on Form 8813 by sending an amended voucher, but this may not always be necessary. If you’ve underpaid or overpaid your taxes, you can reconcile these issues in the annual Form 8804. Send a new voucher only if other information, like your EIN, isn’t correct.

#7. How long does it take to process Form 8813?

There’s no specific processing time for Form 8813. If you mail your payment with the voucher, processing time can vary. For faster, more reliable processing, the IRS recommends submitting payments electronically through EFTPS, which typically processes within 24–48 hours.
