Patricia, thanks for the response.
In the meantime, I already contacted intuit support, because turbotax kept creating a PA RK-1 from the information I submitted. The software tech rep couldn't figure out a solution and connected me to an intuit CPA. Working online with the CPA, we deleted the Schedule C and Schedule E. Turbotax kept trying to recreate the Schedule C, and then we manually opted the checkbox on the form to "not include" the Schedule C. We also allowed the software to create the PA RK-1, though since the K-1 was for a general loss for the year, it was never included in the printed submission paperwork.
A larger question that was answered was that the MD LLC only generates a federal and MD K-1, no generation of other state K-1s. The step-by-step instructions to include a K-1 in the PA return is incomplete and unclear. It definitely could use improvement. The fact that PA creates its own version of the RK-1 within turbotax is very confusing. There is no explanation or guidance in the step-by-step on how to include an out of state earned income from an out of state K-1.
I'm including this information for anyone else that runs into the same issue.
