Section 1250 gain

I entered a long term gain on one line after selling my interest in a parnership that sent me a K-1. Could I also have a section 1250 gain and how do I figure out what that is?

Section 1250 gain

I'm going to page Champ @Rick19744 for this. Check back later, please.

 

Also, I believe your K-1 would show an unrecaptured Section 1250 gain if one existed.

Section 1250 gain

While the facts are not real clear:

  • It's not clear if the gain you are referring to is a result of the partnership liquidating and there was gain on the K-1 line 9a, or
  • If the gain you are referring to is the result of you selling your partnership interest to a third party and the LT gain is selling price exceeding your tax basis.
  • While I'm assuming it is related to bullet #2, you could in fact have some Section 1250 gain.  In order to determine this you would need help from the preparer of the partnership tax return.  This is not always provided even upon asking the question.  The partnership is not real keen on spending $$ to help you determine the tax implications on your personal investment side.  Additionally, this is not a simple computation or estimate.  If this is the case, I would pass as the tax arbitrage between the two tax rates is most likely not that significant.
  • If it is related to bullet #1, then I agree with @tagteam that this would have been provided on the K-1 line 9c.
