I received Form 1099-PATR for a distribution from a Cooperative. This cooperative financed the mortgage on an investment property I purchased. The property has a home that I rent out as well as 30 acres of land that I use for both capital gain (timber sales, etc) and personal use (hunting, ATV riding, etc). My question is how do I report this income on my tax return? If I report under the Dividend section would it be considered Total Ordinary Dividend, Qualified Dividend, Capital Gain distribution, or something else ?
To enter a 1099-PATR for farm or co-op dividends:
If your 1099-PATR isn't for farm or co-op dividends, it gets entered as general business income:
Most often, your Form 1099-PATR reports dividends associated with a farm or cooperative (co-op). You can also receive a 1099-PATR for other reasons (for example, a land bank mortgage or backup withholdings made on your behalf).
Tip: If the dividends in Box 1 of your 1099-PATR came from property purchased for personal use (or capital assets or depreciable property used in your business), you don't have to enter your 1099-PATR. Keep it with your tax records, though.
I received a 1099-PATR for a farm. The directions above don't tell me exactly where to enter all the information in to TurboTax.
Specifically, on the 1099-PATR, there are amounts entered in:
Box 1: Patronage Dividends
Box 3: Per-unit retain allocations
Box 7: Qualified Payments
Box 8: Section 199A qualified Item
Box 13: Specified Coop (checked)
Where can I enter the above information? Is there a 1099-PATR in the Forms View (if so, I don't see it).
Thank you!
This will be entered under your farm income.
Hi @JamesG1
I tried your recommendation below, and don't see anyplace to input the following 1099-PATR for a Farm.
The directions don't tell me exactly where to enter all the information in to TurboTax.
Specifically, on the 1099-PATR form, there are amounts entered in:
Box 1: Patronage Dividends
Box 3: Per-unit retain allocations
Box 7: Qualified Payments
Box 8: Section 199A qualified Item
Box 13: Specified Coop (checked)
Where can I enter the above information? Is there a 1099-PATR in the Forms View (if so, I don't see it).
By comparison, for a 1099-DIV, TurboTax has an explicit form where data may be entered in TurboTax for each box.
Thank you!
The amounts from your Form 1099-PATR are entered in the Farm Income section under 'Income from cooperative distributions (usually reported on Form 1099-PATR)'. See image below. They are also entered on the Form 8895 worksheet using TurboTax CD/Download version.
Specifically, on the 1099-PATR form, there are amounts entered in:
Box 1: Patronage Dividends - Include in Box labeled Total Income from Cooperative Distributions
Box 3: Per-unit retain allocations -Include in Box labeled Total Income from Cooperative Distributions
Box 7: Qualified Payments - DO NOT ENTER THIS AMOUNT
Box 8: Section 199A qualified Item - DO NOT ENTER THIS AMOUNT
Box 13: Specified Coop (checked) - DO NOT ENTER THIS AMOUNT
For your entry add Boxes 1 & 3 together and enter this combined amount. The Section 199A amount from Box 8, will be automated if you show a profit on the farm. If not, and because each piece of income becomes a component for Section 199A (qualified business income deduction or QBID), then this amount should be entered separately using the steps below.
So based on your response to the OP you don't have to report the 1099-PATR but keep it for records? I also bought property financed through a co-op (received a 1099-PATR from the co-op, I assume they are returning our interest paid on the loan) that I rent out the farmland to but do not have a farm.
Please read the information above DianneW777 carefully. Some of the information is not reported, but other information is combined and reported.

I don't own a farm or report earnings for farming, because I don't farm. So where do you enter this 1099-PATR if it's an investment property?
