My return had several of these QBI statements requiring "manual signing" produced when I made a .pdf of the return, as I have multiple rental homes. What did not make sense is that these are exact repeated statements and signatures. They were not consolidated into one statement.
1) Looks like the ball was dropped. One QBI statement should suffice for multiple properties.
2) I hand edited a all properties into a consolidated QBI statement, printed it out and included it in the mailed return. It was accepted by the IRS
3) QBI Form does not clearly show if it needs multiple signatures for joint filing.
4) State returns are blocked from e-filing also when fed has QBI attached. Why?
