Business & farm

Rick, thanks for your response.  To address your questions:
1)  Sold (disposed of) my entire interest.
2)  Not sure of your question.  I "owned" less than 1% of the LLC.  Other interests may have been sold independent of my action.
3)  My current understanding is that, passive activity losses are ordinary loss therefore not subject to the capital loss restriction of only allowing a $3,000 loss to be deducted each year. Passive activity loss is not allowed to be taken until the activity is sold at which point and the losses for all the prior years are now deductible.  This information addresses most of my concerns.
4)  Do not know the answer to the first part of the question.  The Broker's EIN is on the 1099-B.
