Why are they getting a K-1 if they are not a partner?

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

If the employee received a K-1 form, then he must be a partner as well as an employee. I believe what you mean is that $50,000 of interest income was reported on line 5 of the K-1 form. In box13 is listed $180,000 of investment interest expense. You can deduct the investment interest expense up to the amount of investment income on Form 4952, Investment Interest Expense Deduction, on line 1, Part 1.

Investment interest expense is reported on Line 13H of the K-1.
