That is exactly what I am trying to accomplish, but am unable to.
For example, I enter the information of the 1099-G I received into my return. I enter all amounts exactly as are on the 1099-G. I split the amount between the 2 of us on the 8958. I go back to my Schedule 1, but it still has the full amount, not the 50% split. I try to "override" the amount on my schedule 1 so that it is my 50% portion, but the "override" option is grayed out and I cannot do it.
I know I need to enter my partner's W-2 info into his his return and split it 50/50 on 8958... I have not done yet, so I do not know if the software will automatically show 50% on his 1099. But then how do I get the 50% allocated to me into my return???
