RealTaxes
Level 2

Hi George4Tacks,

Screen 13 is used when taking deductions for Ordinary Income, and flows to each partner's K-1 on Line 1. However, since this entity is a Rental, the income and deductions should flow to each partner's K-1 Line 2. It's important to record the correct type of income because Rental Real Estate Income will be treated as passive income at the partner level when they prepare their respective income tax return. I believe that LaCerte needs to add another line to the "State Amounts" section of screen 17 for Meals Expense subject to 100% bonus as it does for Ordinary Income, Amortization, Depreciation & Taxes. 

 

Thank you for your response!
