Business & farm

@MarilynG1 your link doesn't work; at least for me.

@micpot I have several questions / comments:

  • The section 179 limitation is limited to business income at both the partnership level and partner level.
  • When you indicate the section 179 was not allowed because of a loss, was that at the partnership level?
  • If bullet 2 is "yes", then no section 179 should have been allocated out to the partners on their respective K-1.  The deduction is suspended (carried over).
  • Was there income at the partnership level in 2020?
    • If "no", then your section 179 deduction is still suspended (carried over)
    • If "yes", then you should have included this on the 2020 form 1065 and K-1's
  • Finally, is there income in 2021 at the partnership level?
  • We need to understand the answers to the above before we can provide more clarity.
