An idea would be to not take the QBI deduction for rental properties and then e-file your return. After it's been accepted you could wait a month or so and then file an amended return (which should only be a few pages) and take the QBI deduction. Clearly you lose some time value of money and it flags the QBI issue, but it may be better than printing off tons of forms and mailing the original return.
Just a thought - any comments on this idea?
