When you are reviewing last year's tax return, go to the vehicle section to see if you used the standard mileage rate. The business miles times the mileage rate for a business vehicle, in 2023, was 65.5 cents per mile.  You must look at the vehicle worksheet itself because there may be other expenses included on your Schedule C for Car and Truck expense line.

If you do not amend the tax return, retain the K-1 information with your income tax files should you need to refer to the information at a later time.   If your return has been transmitted and accepted by the IRS, you may amend your Federal 1040 tax return.   If you used TurboTax Online, log in to your account and select Amend a return that was filed and accepted.   If you used the CD/download product, sign back into your return and select Amend a filed return.    See also this TurboTax Help.

@kdutta ,Namashkar. Whereas I do not  have experience in owning NRE or NRO accounts,  I am aware  of the US tax implications of such accounts. (a) Are you a US person ( citizen / GreenCard/ Resident for Tax purposes ) ?  I ask because as NRA  you do not need to report the earnings in such schemes. (b)  There are no special handling / carveouts in the US-India Tax Treaty -- this is just interest income. (c) Issues that are  most vexing ( depending on the actual facts & circumstances) are:                        1. For NRE accounts   earnings while not taxed  in India still have to be recognized and taxed in the USA.  And to this add the uncertainty/ effects  caused by  exchange rate.   You recognize  these earnings  ( for US purposes ) as interest earnings.  Since India does not tax the earnings there is NO Foreign Tax credit ( No double taxation ).                          2.  For NRO accounts, because India taxes these, you have  eligibility  for Foreign Tax Credit    but generally no  exchange rate degradation issue.  Your reporting / recognition  is dependent on the type of income deposited into the account  (  savings/CD interest , rental income. business income etc. )   Given the general nature of your question , I do not know for certain if I have answered your query  in full or not .  I will await your response .
We'd love to help you complete your tax return, but need more information. Can you please clarify your question?
Yes!  You have to report all of your investment sales transactions, not just the ones that are reported to the IRS.

I am using a tax program which shows the allocation of income to the trust,  rather than the beneficiaries.  There is Rent Income and Depreciation expense that is net negative income due to depreciation.  In the past years the program allocated both the rents and depreciation separately to the K1, but now it is to the trust. Is there a reason why?

The cost of the generator or other qualifying property, not the home itself.  For ore information, see Energy Star.gov   Tax Credit includes installation costs.   The maximum credit is $500 per half kilowatt (kW) of power capacity.   The fuel cell  must have a nameplate capacity of at least 0.5 kW of electricity using an electrochemical process and an electricity-only generation efficiency greater than 30%.   The home served by the system MUST be the taxpayer's principal residence.   In case of joint occupancy, the maximum qualifying costs that can be taken into account by all occupants for figuring the credit is $1,667 per 0.5 kW. This does not apply to married individuals filing a joint return. The credit that may be claimed by each individual is proportional to the costs he/she paid.
