    When you enter your K-1 schedule (Business Investment and Estate/Trust Income section), you will put a check mark in the box 20 option. When you get to the box 20 entries, you will choose Code Z  - Section 199A information and enter the the business income as a negative number. Indicate that the income comes from the partnership that generated this K-1, unless you know otherwise. When requested to enter additional information about the 199A form, choose the Partnership has UBIA of qualified property option and enter the UBIA amount.

    I m confused : do i need to enter negative ordinary business income on Box 20 after choosing code Z or just leave it blank? 

     

    I also have passive loss from previous years which is automatically filled up in the turbo tax, do I need to do something about it? 

     

    Thanks!

    Code Z is for entering your qualified business income (QBI). It is normally equal to the amount entered on line 1 or 2 of your schedule k-1. Also, if line 1 or 2 is a negative number, you need to make sure you enter the QBI number as a negative. Maybe you are entering the wrong amount.

    I am having trouble with an error on my K1.  Sch K-1: box 20 Code Z has been selected but no Section 199A income has been entered on Statement A.  I have an income entered but it done not seem to be recognizing the amount.  How do I get this fixed?
