If you can identify the source of the Qualified Business Income, you can delete the form and re-enter to make sure that it has been entered correctly. 

 

The Qualified Business Income Deduction can be generated from one of two components. 

  • The QBI component can result from a sole proprietorship, partnership, S corporation, trust or estate.  The first component would likely be reported on Schedule C, Schedule E, Schedule F or a K-1.
  • The REIT / PTP component can be generated from qualified real estate investment trust (REIT) dividends or qualified publicly traded partnership (PTP) income.  The second component could be reported on 1099-DIV or a K-1.
