@maps4you Huh? The adjustment is for assigning part of the dividend to someone else. You would know the percentage you are giving them like half 50%. So you adjust each amount by 50%. ..
Whoever's ssn is on the 1099 enters the whole amount on their return. Then at the bottom of the entry screen, pick the second one "I need to adjust the amount."
Then on the next page fill in the amount as a POSITIVE number and pick the first reason "I received all or part of these dividends for someone else".
Then on the other person's return you enter it as a 1099-Div and put the amounts in the boxes.
