I have a client who is a partner in an LLC for which he receives guaranteed payments in addition to his share of the ordinary income. He also owns a separate LLC for which he is sole proprietor. He has set up a SEP for the sole proprietorship for which he would like to contribute the maximum amount for 2020. ProSeries Basic is calculating the maximum SEP based on both the net income from the sole proprietorship and also on his guaranteed payments from the partnership.
I know that he cannot calculate his maximum SEP payment based on his guaranteed payment income (as a separate plan would need to be set up within the partnership that would include the partners and all employees, which has not been done). Other than overriding the amounts on the SEP Contribution Worksheet, which requires overriding a number of the entries, is there a way to let the program know that the guaranteed payments should not be included in this calculation?
