It is still a calendar year filing.

Yes, but it should be short year.

IRS: Short Tax Year

A short tax year is a tax year of less than 12 months. A short period tax return may be required when you (as a taxable entity):

  • Are not in existence for an entire tax year, or
  • Change your accounting period.
