For 2021 the IRS released procedures 

 

Regarding the IRS "Safe Harbor I believe  @GeoffS is referring to the following:

 

Notice 2021-39PDF provides penalty relief for good-faith efforts to adopt the new schedules. Today's transition relief, appearing in new frequently asked questions (FAQs) on Schedules K-2 and K-3, allows an additional exception for tax year 2021 filing requirements by certain domestic partnerships and S corporations.

 

The IRS is providing an additional exception for tax year 2021 to filing the Schedules K-2 and K-3 for certain domestic partnerships and S corporations. To qualify for this exception, the following must be met:
