However,
cooperative
associations
as
defined
in
section
6072(d)
6
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
shall
file
their
returns
on
or
7
before
the
fifteenth
day
of
the
ninth
month
following
the
8
close
of
the
taxable
year
and
nonprofit
corporations
subject
9
to
the
unrelated
business
income
tax
imposed
by
section

422.33,
subsection
1A
1B
,
shall
file
their
returns
on
or
before
11
the
fifteenth
day
of
the
fifth
month
following
the
close
of
12
the

If,
under
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
a
13
corporation
is
required
to
file
a
return
covering
a
tax
period
14
of
less
than
twelve
months,
the
state
return
shall
be
for
the
15
same
period
and
is
due
forty-five
days
after
the
due
date
of

cause
them
to
be
distributed
21
throughout
the
state
and
to
be
furnished
upon
application,
22
but
failure
to
receive
or
secure
the
form
does
not
relieve
23
the
taxpayer
from
the
obligation
of
making
a
return
that
is
24
required.
The
department
may
as
far
as

a
