@amazingflowerfarm that's a very interesting point! Even though my bottom line is the same, the act of removing the worksheet did affect the return:
- Looking at my 8995-A (Qualified Business Income Deduction), it went from a single combined column to two separate columns for each of the two rental properties.
- One form right after the 8995-A disappeared. It's titled SCHEDULE B (Form 8995-A) - Aggregation of Business Operations.
Now the question is whether this will matter for next year. In my case, line 40 of the 8995-A has value 0 (both before and after the change). This line is the "Total qualified REIT dividends and PTP (loss) carryforward.", which seems to relate to what you bring up.
So I'm going to guess it won't matter for next year in my case because it's 0? Was yours non-zero? I'm not going to claim that I really understand how any of this works... 🙂
