Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello Nexchap,

 

I am a novice when filing MLP returns in TT and trying to following your steps below. I have tried to read through all the posts on this thread and the more I read, the more I get confused.

 

I purchased sales of the MLP back in 2011, reinvested distributions, and sold all the shares in 2021 through my brokerage. I am trying to complete the "Enter Sale Information" screen in TT using the K-1 2021 Sales Schedule from the MLP. Based on your steps below.

 

Step 1

What do I enter into the fields on the "Enter Sale Information" menu in TT?

 

Regular Gain or Loss 

Sale Price [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

Selling Expense [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

Partnership Basis [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

Ordinary Gain [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?     

1250 Gain [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

 

AMT Gain or Loss

Partnership Basis [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

Ordinary Gain [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

1250 Gain [ ] - What column on Sales Schedule?

 

Step 2

What columns on the K-1 Sales Schedule should be sued to calculate the gain/loss?

 

I am sure I am not the only one who has questions regarding the sale of MLPs. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
