Yes, after a lengthy discussion with TT support, that is the workaround that was suggested. I believe that does "work", but CLEARLY TT needs to streamline that process and at the very least make it clear(er) somehow/somewhere. There is NO WAY that anybody would arrive at that solution on their own. Even the result is VERY confusing to look at... think about it... My wife and I both get a K-1 from the main business, and that business has 3 OTHER businesses (listed inside box 17...for a total of 4 businesses). That means under my K-1s, I now have 8 of them. (4 businesses x 2 people that get K-1s). They are ALL THE SAME NAME... TT doesn't even discern them by who they are for (wife or myself). All because there isn't better handling for the 199A stuff. Better hope you don't need to go back and look at or change anything in your K-1... takes 10 min to click into each of them to know which one you need to look at. Point is... TT... Please try to streamline that process for next year!!... not really acceptable to handle it this way. Dealing with this one issue has at least doubled my time that it takes me to do my entire 1040 with TT.
