It depends on where you live.

 

If you live in a community property state (AZ, CA, ID, LA, NV, NM, TX, WA, & WI), you may each file Schedule C on your joint return to report your respective shares of the business losses. In this case, you may use TurboTax Online Self-Employed or TurboTax Home & Business CD/Download.

 

However, if you do not live in a community property state, the LLC must file a separate business return (Form 1065 Partnership, available in TurboTax Business). You would then include the information from two Schedules K-1 on your joint return.
