Extensions Reduced from Six to Five Months
On June 30, 2008, the IRS issued a temporary, proposed regulation that reduces the extension time from six months to five months for 1065s, 1120Ss and 1041s.

Since individuals need the K-1 information from partnerships, S corporations, estates, and trusts to complete their tax returns, the IRS is reducing the six month extension times for these entities to five months so that individual 1040 filers have a month to prepare their taxes.

Prior to this adjustment the extension due date for these entities and for individuals fell on the same date, usually October 15.

This will be effective for extensions on tax returns due on or after Jan. 1, 2009.
