AC § 11-1717

(a)Partner's and shareholder's modifications. In determining city adjusted gross income and city taxable income of a city resident partner or a city resident shareholder of an S corporation (other than an S corporation which is a New York C corporation), any modification described in subdivision (b), (c) or (d) of section 11-1712, or subdivision (c) of section 11-1715 or paragraph two or three of subdivision (d) of such section, which relates to an item of partnership or S corporation income, gain, loss or deduction shall be made in accordance with the partner's distributive share or the shareholder's pro rata share, for federal income tax purposes, of the item to which the modification relates. Where a partner's distributive share or a shareholder's pro rata share of any such item is not required to be taken into account separately for federal income tax purposes, the partner's or shareholder's share of such item shall be determined in accordance with his or her share, for federal income tax purposes, of partnership or S corporation taxable income or loss generally. In the case of a New York S termination year, his or her pro rata share of any such item shall be determined under subdivision (s) of section 11-1712.
