Individual, W-2. Why am I getting Qualified Business Income Deduction?

Did you receive a 1099-DIV or Schedule K-1?

You may be entitled to a deduction of up to 20% of your net QBI from a trade or business, including income from a pass-through entity, but not from a C corporation, plus 20% of qualified real estate investment trust (REIT) dividends( form 1099-div box 5) and qualified publicly traded partnership (PTP) income.
