Deductions & credits

@bww25

I do not believe it will qualify as earned income for purposes of the Earned Income Tax Credit.

 

The IRS defines earned income as:

  • Taxable income you earned as an employee, such as wages, salaries, commissions, and tips,
  • Profits from operating your business or farm,
  • Long-term disability pay if received before the minimum retirement age,
  • Union strike benefits.

I suspect the K-1 will report on Schedule E.  Use Schedule E (Form 1040 or 1040-SR) to report income or loss from rental real estate, royalties, partnerships, S corporations, estates, trusts, and residual interests in real estate mortgage investment conduits (REMICs).  Schedule E is for “supplemental income and loss,” and not earned income.
