My Federal K-1 (1065, for partnerships/LLCs) has one value; the corresponding MA 3K-1 line has a different value. I need the different value to show up in the MA form 8582 part V for passive activity losses.
However, in the MA section of TurboTax, when I edit the K-1 and for "Do you have any Massachusetts differences?" I select Yes, the only differences I can enter are for the "partnership income", and are reflected in Schedule E, rather than Schedule 8582.
How can I enter a MA difference to a federal form 1065 Schedule K-1 box 2 "Net rental real estate income (loss)" so it shows up in Form 8582 Part V (passive activities), modifying a PAL, and not as (taxable) income?
After several hours on the phone with two different CPAs, it was confirmed that it's not possible with the online version, and I need to use the desktop version.
In the MA section of the desktop app, I need to look at the "Activity Worksheet", enter an adjustment for line 1D. Also, to change the carryover from last year, I need to modify line 6.
Thanks @Anonymous_ . The link says to either post or talk to a person. So I talked to a person, and they're as mystified as I am. They told me to pay $90, plus more for state, to talk to a CPA, even though my question isn't a tax question, but rather a question about how to enter a value into TurobTax.
I'll give it a try, but I'm not very hopeful.
