Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@mlpinvestor 19A can be entered into TT, but it doesn't affect your taxes. But its important information because it affects your basis. 11F and 9A are both handled by TT. Enter them, and you'll see your taxes increase. They also lower your basis.
Essentially, for any K-1, best practice is to enter everything into TT and then use Forms mode to double-check that TT was able to automatically process it (you can see this in forms mode, because some entries have an * telling you "Not provided for in program"). This will basically ensure that TT has the chance to use everything on the K-1 that should flow through your return.
The trickier part -- the part that TT doesn't make any attempt to handle -- is tracking your basis in the partnership. That's why handling sales, or situations where basis drops to 0, trips up everyone who's hoping that TT will completely automate tax prep.
**Note also, I'm not a Tax Preparer/CPA. Just a volunteer, seasoned, TurboTax user.
Use any advice accordingly!
