Form 8990 - Forced to file by Mail? i.e. No e-file for me?

[FrogMack]

So, I have $4 show up in box 13 on a K-1, which forces me to leave TurboTax, fill out an IRS Form 8990, then print 95 page return, insert my 8990 and then file by mail, since TurboTax can't figure out how to incorporate Form 8990 into the program?  Just wanting to make sure I am not missing something.

You are not missing anything.  TurboTax is not the only tax preparation software that doesn't support e-filing when the return includes Form 8990, so I'm guessing it's an IRS issue and not a TurboTax issue.  If it were me, I would consider omitting the $4 entry and e-file the return.  If the IRS sends a letter (they won't) the missing information can be added and Form 8990 mailed to them.  I realize it is not the correct way to handle it, and I'm not recommending it.  I'm just saying I would consider it.
