What exactly is that other passive income, and where do you have it entered on the tax return?

The other passive income consists of capital gains, dividends, distributions, etc. My sense is that it's an apples-to-oranges thing where even if those income sources are passive, the schedule E carryovers need to offset other Schedule E income which the client did not have this year. ?

That's what I thought, but you explain it well.
