K-1 Error Box 13 Code W to ZZ

[jgilmer78]

I no not have any entries for on My K-1 for Box 13 Code W to ZZ, but when error checking, Turbo Tax thinks I need to put something in 1-Other Taxes.  If I enter -0- in the box to clear the error, the next time it thinks I need to enter something in 2-Other miscellaneous itemized deductions.  If I then enter -0- in this box, it moves to the next line as an error.

Any way to fix this or do I just ignore and file anyway?

partnership k-1(?) - did you import the k-1, if so stray data may be brough in for those boxes. if you can check those lines in Turbotax to make sure there's nothing there for those lines. no code letter. if that doesn't work you'll need probably need to delete the k-1 and reenter manually.  Turbotax will probably not let you e-file with those errors.  0 is usually not a valid number

I manually entered my K-1 - no option to download. However, I did find an answer in the community. Apparently the AE code from the software does not populate to the IRS forms correctly. I've posted the solution I found here from User "ZpTax" dated March 15, 2025.

"So, it appears that code AE isn't outside of codes listed between W and ZZ, despite of its alphabetical designation. Very confusing, Mr. IRS. I now have the amount specified in K-1 under code AE in the Additional Information Form for Sch. K-1, Box 13, line 8, Other (enter description) as "Portfolio Income (code AE)", as it is characterized in the IRS Instructions for Sch. K-1. I did receive the instructions from the fund owners that list code AE for Box 13, but do not state where it belongs. "

This had to be entered on the "K1P Addl Infor 1" form under "Box 13: Other Deductions", "Code W to ZZ: Other Deductions", and on "Line 8. Other *" of that section.  As per the instructions above, I entered the description: Portfolio Income (Code AE) and the amount given for Code AE on my K-1.  The reason I was getting the error was the total line already had the information entered. Apparently that line does not "subtotal" from the lines above.

After doing this I no longer had an error and was able to file. I agree with the other poster, I think this is a IRS form issue to begin with, but Turbo Tax needs to make sure that they are mapping everything correctly.  There is no specific line for Code AE for Box 13.
