Adding a +1 to this - I'm also seeing this same problem. The statements in the K-1 I received from an estate (for non passive rental real estate income) very clearly list the income as "non passive income". The K-1 gives instructions to file that income under Schedule E, line 33, column F (non passive).
However, no matter what options I click in the interview mode, I can't get Turbo Tax (Mac version, downloaded) to record it in the K-1 worksheet as non passive income; when I examine the underlying form, it always gets entered as passive. This means that, when the K-1 worksheet gets transferred to the Schedule E, the income is placed in the wrong box: Schedule E, Line 33, column D (passive), instead of non passive as it is listed in the K-1 I received from the estate.
I thought of editing the form myself, but there are all kinds of warnings about how I can't e-file if I do, and/or Turbo Tax won't back my return calculations anymore. Any help would be appreciated.
