Common questions about entering passthrough entity K-1 information in ProConnect Tax

There aren't direct inputs specifically for distributions on the Passthrough K-1's screen in the S-Corporate or Partnership modules. You'll need to enter distributions from another passthrough entity in the input screen where you'd report distributions from the entity itself.

When entering a multi-state K-1 in the Passthrough K-1's screen of the Individual or Fiduciary module, you always want to start with the Federal Amount column. This will make the amounts flow to the federal return and the resident state return.

1. Enter amounts in the Federal Amount column to flow to the federal return and the taxpayer's resident state return.
   • Use the State if Different column when the taxpayer's resident state amount differs from the federal amount.
   • Use the State Source Amount column to flow to the taxpayer's nonresident or part-year resident state returns only.
2. Select the plus sign (+) to the right of input fields to expand the input and enter specific amounts for each state (multiple states must already be added to the return for the + sign to show).
   • Alternatively, you can source amounts using the Federal Amount column.
   • Sourcing an amount to a state with the S selection in the Source column will make the amount flow only to that state. It won't affect the federal or any other state returns.
