Terry is right, I just had to do that on a shareholder 1040 K-1 entry in order for the loss to show up.  I think the idea is, how would the preparer know which shareholders in which years are actively participating?  Not a problem in most cases, when both the corporation and the shareholder are clients, but responsibility for the determination should be at the shareholder level.

But for partnerships/LLCs preparers are expected to know. Go figure.

The more I know the more I don’t know.
