I am using the Turbotax Business version download. 

At the K-1 screen, I was not asked about disposition of the partnership interest. 

Is there anything else I am missing. BTW, I already checked that this is the final K-1. 

But no other information was asked on how to enter the sale proceed and purchase price and Recapture as ordinary income.

Can you advise on that? Thank you very much.

Are you using TurboTax Business or TurboTax Home & Business. They are not the same.


TurboTax Business is not for preparing your own tax return. It's for preparing the Form 1065 tax return that the partnership files. As part of the partnership's tax return, it creates a Schedule K-1 for each partner.


The Schedule K-1 that you received from the partnership has to be entered in your personal Form 1040 tax return. You cannot prepare your personal Form 1040 tax return with TurboTax Business. You have to use one of the personal versions of TurboTax: Basic, Deluxe, Premier, or Home & Business. To enter your Schedule K-1 in one of the personal download versions of TurboTax, follow the instructions that Bsch4477 posted above. For more information see the following FAQ.


Where do I enter a K-1 that I received?

I am using TurboTax Business. This business (S-corp) also own interests in a partnership LP. 

The S-corp sold interest in another partnership. 

Thank you.

IF you are completing an S-Corp return that itself got a K-1 form then there probably is not a place to directly enter the K-1 form as a whold  in the program so you will need to make the entries separetly in the correlating sections.  This is not common so if you are not sure of what you are doing then seek local professional assistance.
