Investors & landlords

@teri85  If you go to your rental property and go through the interview steps it will ask "Do any of these situations apply to you?"  One of those situations is "I have a passive loss carryover from a prior year that I need to enter."  If you enter the passive loss carryover here then it should carry into the Massachusetts return.  Over riding numbers is a good way to get the forms to look right but the program can't carry the data where it belongs if you do that.

 

The IRS doesn't see your worksheets.  So you don't have to care what they think about how you come up with the numbers on your return as long as the numbers on your return are correct.
