Edit box 8a in form 7203

My business gave me Form 7203 for Schedule K-1. The copy of Form 7203 that I received has a value in box 8a Nondeductible Expenses. However, I am unable to enter this value in Form 7203 in TurboTax. Please advise.

Hi @gglockner

Entries in the K-1 section of TurboTax can indeed be tricky. In this case, when the system opens the 7203 form on your screen, rather than scrolling all the way down to Part I Shareholder Stock Basis line 8a, stop at the Stock and Debt Basis Limitations Smart Worksheet section just under the QuickZoom to the K-1S Worksheet. You can enter the non deductible expenses in field B Non deductible expenses under Current Year Amount and it will flow to Part I line 8a.

Thanks to @icalvo for the pointers:

  • Yes, I now realize that I posted in the wrong discussion section, but I found no way to correct this myself
  • I incorrectly thought that the Community Discussions was the only way to answer questions since that's where I found answers in the past - thanks for the pointer to technical support

And of course thanks to @carolineb for the quick and correct answer despite my newbie posting mistake.
