Get your taxes done using TurboTax

For each of your partnership K-1s, in Forms mode scroll down a little more than half way, and compare the Section D-1 information to your box 20, code Z statement from the actual K-1 your received.  If the amounts don't "match", you should be able to enter the correct amounts directly into the form in Forms mode. 

 

Also, check in that Section D-1 to see if you have more than one type of income reported on a Form K-1 (e.g., business income and rental, or rental income and royalty income).  If so, you will need to enter a separate K-1 for each type of income from the same K-1 business.

 

Then, work through the next section, Section D-2.  First, check the question A "QBI worksheet to report" to make sure it is linked to the correct QBI Component worksheet.  If these K-1 businesses are being aggregated, they will share the same QBI Component worksheet.  If the K-1 businesses are not aggregated, there should be a separate QBI Component worksheet for each one.

 

Next, follow through the lines and calculations in Section D-2 to find what "happens" to the amounts from Section D-1 in the QBI calculation.  The QBI amounts reported in Section D-2 go to the QBI Component worksheet to which the K-1 is linked in Section D-2 question A.

 

If everything on both K-1s looks correct, delete the QBI Component worksheets and the QBI Ded Summary, and then create new QBI Component worksheets (or worksheet if businesses are aggregated) in Section D-1, question A of each K-1.  The QBI Ded Summary will repopulate on its own.

 

Note also that your total income may exceed the limit for a QBI deduction if your K-1 businesses are considered "SSTBs" (specified services trade or business).
