You'll need to enter your
K-1 information as separate estates if it contains more than one of the following types of income:
-
Box 6 - Ordinary Business Income (Loss)
-
Box 7 - Net Rental Real Estate Income (Loss)
-
Box 8 - Other Rental Income (Loss)
Example: Your
K-1 has information in
Box 6,
Box 7, and
Box 8.
You would enter the activity amounts due to business income from
Box 6 as one estate. Then you'd need to create a second estate to enter the activity due to rental real estate income from
Box 7. And finally, you'd need to create a third estate to enter the activity due to other rental income from
Box 8.
You would enter each of these estates with the same owner, EIN, name of estate, etc. on the
Estate and Trust Income Information (Schedule K-1) screen.
You should treat each income activity separately. You'll also need to allocate any other amounts to the correct activity. Your
K-1 should come with a statement to help you figure out how to allocate these amounts. Make sure you don't enter any amounts more than once.
