4. a. A limited partnership or foreign limited partnership that is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes may obtain and retain in its records for inspection by the director the consent of each of its partners that are not corporations exempt from tax pursuant to section 3 of P.L.1945, c.162 (C.54:10A-3), or individuals, trusts or estates subject to the "New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act", N.J.S.54A:1-1 et seq., to the following jurisdictional requirements in a form prescribed by the Director of the Division of Taxation: that this State shall have the right and jurisdiction to tax and collect the tax, hereby imposed, on the entire net income of the partner (1) based upon combining the respective numerators and denominators of the allocation fractions of the partner with the partner's share of the numerators and denominators of the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership to determine an allocation factor to be applied to the partner's entire net income, including the partner's distributive share of the partnership income, to determine the portion of the partner's entire net income allocated to this State if the relationship between the partner and limited partnership or foreign limited partnership is unitary, or (2) based upon separately using the allocation fractions of the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership to determine the allocation factor to be applied to the partner's distributive share of the partnership income, using the allocation fractions of the partner to determine the allocation factor to be applied to the partner's entire net income excluding the partner's distributive share of the income of the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership, and then combining those two allocated amounts of net income to determine the portion of the partner's entire net income allocated to this State if the relationship between the partner and the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership is not unitary.
b. A limited partnership or foreign limited partnership that is not a qualified investment partnership and that has not obtained and retained the written consent of one or more of its partners that are not corporations exempt from tax pursuant to section 3 of P.L.1945, c.162 (C.54:10A-3), or individuals, trusts or estates subject to the "New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act", N.J.S.54A:1-1 et seq., shall, on or before the 15th day of the fourth month succeeding the close of each privilege period, remit a payment of tax equal to the nonconsenting partners' share of the entire net income of the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership for that privilege period, multiplied by an allocation factor determined, pursuant to section 6 of P.L.1945, c.162 (C.54:10A-6), based on the allocation fractions of the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership for that privilege period, and multiplied by the maximum rate set forth at paragraph (1) of subsection (c) of section 5 of P.L.1945, c. 162 (C.54:10A-5) for that privilege period. The limited partnership or foreign limited partnership shall have the right, but not the obligation, to recover from the nonconsenting partners such payments made by the partnership.
c. An amount of tax paid by a limited partnership or foreign limited partnership pursuant to subsection b. of this section attributable to a nonconsenting partner shall be credited to the partner as of the date of its receipt by the director.
