This template outlines the end-to-end process for preparing and filing a US corporate income tax return (Form 1120). It includes steps for initial planning, document collection, tax preparation, internal review, client approval, and final submission.

Key task sections cover:

• Engagement setup
• Preparation of federal and state returns
• Review and approval processes
• Lodgment and post-filing checks

Client Requests are used throughout to gather required information and obtain final sign-off.

This template is part of the US Core Collection. Core templates are simplified versions of existing templates. They are scaled back, medium-complexity templates, with a limited use of Client Requests, and a streamlined number of sections and tasks. They are designed to help you quickly get started with, and derive value from, Karbon templates.
