Retirement tax questions
Hi @DavidS127,
What you said about the Form 1065 K-1 being just a distribution from a partnership is my wife's situation.
-She was granted an interest in the partnership so her tax basis is 0.
-Her Form 1065 K-1 shows a distribution in Box 19 Code A only.
-I think I finally manage to get TurboTax to treat it as capital gains by selecting "Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other" -> Other and reporting as a Investment Sales with 0 basis. I had to play around with the acquired date so that it was more than 1 year before the actual distribution date to have TurboTax treat it as long term capital gains.
I've been researching this for over a day now and this what most TurboTax experts recommend on how to report this K-1 distribution. Is playing around with the acquired date the right thing to do in TurboBox or is there a better way?
