Investors & landlords

I thoroughly researched this in the past

and received professional help from three sources regarding this very topic. The Tax law says yes, but Turbo Tax (and TaxAct) do not allow it unless you download the software to your computer (assuming your computer is new enough and has enough memory to do so) and manually enter the amount on line 9b. Then, you have to mail your forms in because Turbo Tax won't allow it to efile with an amount on 9b if you use the standard deduction.
