When I file my 1040 do I add my W2 and does my K1 supposed to include my income?

Scenario:

 

I am the sole owner of a S Corp. I paid myself a wage as an employee so I have a W2. Because of transitioning of the business I have a loss. Should my K1 include my Employee income? It seems I 've added the w2 to my 1040 but the income is also on my K1 as being an officer and Employee. I own 100 % of the shares.

The salary/wages you paid yourself (reported on Form W-2) as an S-Corp employee are deduction for you S-Corp.  They are also reported on Form 1125-E along with  Form 1120-S as part of the S-Corp tax return.  You K-1 will also reflect your W-2 wages on line 17 - Other Information, using Code V for Section 199A W-2 Wages.  This entry may be needed to calculate your Section 199A deduction.

Ok thank you.

 

 

One more question if you can answer:

 

I pay myself a wage when I am directly working for the business, but when another business contract my business I just accept check to the company and then pay myself via a check. Is that correct? Do I have to include that as just a 1099 even though it's done from the Scorp or is it just considered wages? Hopefully this makes sense.  Basically a company hired me to work they paid it as 1099 work to my scorp which my understanding is not required but it's what they did and I never seen that before.

I think you mean you declare some of the money you take from the business as wages reported on a W-2 form and then you take additional distributions. If so, you don't need to report the additional distributions on a 1099-NEC form to yourself as they would represent distribution of profits from the business. However, you do need to pay yourself a reasonable wage from the business, so if the distributions are excessive you should include them in with your W-2 wages.

if you did the S-Corp return correctly, you should have deducted your salary so the K-1 loss is after that. the net loss on the K-1 must be reported unless you want to overpay your taxes.  also if you don't you'll be getting an IRS notice about the omission
