State tax filing

if you look at the K-1 Worksheet form itself, some codes will have * footnotes telling you that TT isn't doing anything with the information and you have to handle it yourself.  This applies not only to line 20, but other areas of the K-1 itself (e.g., 13K).  Also, in general, if you're typing in a description yourself, TT isn't doing anything with the info.

 

There is not an actual entry screen for the MA K-1, but you will be asked to list any differences between the amounts on the federal and MA forms.  

 

Compare the federal and state K-1s.  If they are not the same, then you have to enter the difference as adjustments to Federal Income in the state section of the program.

  • If the amount on the state K-1 is higher than the federal K-1, enter an addition to federal income on your MA return.
  • If the amount on the state K-1 is lower than the federal K-1, enter an subtraction to federal income on your MA return.
  1. In the Massachusetts return, you will come to the Partnerships and S Corps screen.  The K-1 should be listed.  Click Edit.
  2. You will be given the option to exclude the K-1 from the MA return entirely.  Answer No.
  3. Note any differences on the next screen, MA Differences - Partnership [or S Corps].
