Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@poncho_mike You're definitely on the right track.  On your specific questions:

  • For USAC, you'd check that "the income comes from the partnership..."  That line is just used by TT to connect the QBI income you're entering to the USAC K-1.  Checking the other box causes TT to try to create a brand new partnership form, which isn't what you want.
  • As to what to enter "199A Income" screen I'll preface this with noting that I'm not a CPA.  I'm confident about the handling of the first line (business income (loss)), but less so about the other lines.  If you're in a situation where the handling of those numbers is going to make a significant impact on your taxes, its probably worth hiring outside expertise.  With that said:
    • The business income (loss) lines are handled just as you've been doing.  Note that when you sell, and have "Ordinary Income", it will be entered on the "Other Income" line
    • I enter the 1231 gain (loss) info, and 179 deductions, if they appear on the K-1.
    • For "other deductions", I only enter items from the K-1 if I actually took the deduction elsewhere on my return.  So for example, if you itemize and took the $46 interest expense deduction, then I'd include it as a 199A deduction to reduce the QBI you're adjusting.  But if you didn't itemize, you didn't get that deduction and shouldn't enter it here.

Hope that helps!
