1099-misc address differs from state wherein royalties are generated.

Hi,

I receive royalties from WY, but the payers address on the 1099-misc is OK.

On Schedule E, should I be entering the address of the payer as, OK? That does not seem correct, shouldn't it be WY. Otherwise, TurboTax will think the royalties are from the wrong state.

I don't want to just alter the address. Is there an option to tell TT the royalties are from WY, not, OK?

 

Thank you

If TurboTax prompts you to enter an address for the property, use the actual address if you know it (look on the property tax bill if you have one). Or use your own address. The IRS instructions say address lines 1 and 2 should be left blank, but sometimes the program won't let you continue without an address.

 

See IRS Instructions for Schedule E.

I keep running across this statement for Schedule E: 

  • Line 1a is manual entry of property addresses for property A, B and C. Use the separate spaces provided for street, city, state and zip code. Note- Royalties do not have addresses.

TurboTax does Not like it if I leave those address fileds blank. So, I changed a couple of the addresses to different states & that did not change the outcome. I am beginning to wonder how important those address fields are when it comes to Royalties.

 

Thanx

I used a Section Township Range map to locate the property. That is the County, State, Zip address I am going to use. Hope that's OK. Doesn't appear to affect the outcome, so, basically cosmetic.

 

Thanx Patricia
