In the Schedule K-1 interview, choose Box 20 Code ZZ instead of AJ. Leave the amount blank. Continue until you see "Enter Other Information Detail."

See IRS Instructions for Form 461 - Limitations on Business Losses. TurboTax does not include Form 461, which must be attached to your tax return (print and mail).
