Business & farm

1) Organized in FL

2) We simply split the startup costs down the middle...so no actual contributions into an account, but rather divided expenses 50/50. In other words, when a bill came in, we each paid half out of our individual accounts.

3) Again, no capital account balances per se, only shared losses we split on our Schedule Ks. It was a 50/50 ownership.

4) No debts.

 5) Yes, we filed a VA return.

Sorry for the complication...I can appreciate your comment about resolving these face-to-face.
