I closed my small business in October 2019. Do I use that date on my 1065? Or December 31? Or does it matter? Stopped paying taxes in October.

I’m asking this in regards to the calendar tax year. Should it be Jan-Dec? Or Jan-Oct on my 1065....

If you closed your business in October, then you would use that date on your 1065. It would have run from January until October, which is considered a short tax year for calendar year businesses.
