Special allocation of 199A items from lower itier K-1s?

hnguyen · ‎12-07-2019

We are working on partnership which received K-1 from the lower tier. The K-1 provided information on box 20 for code Z, AB, etc... for section 199A. For the partnership we are working on, we want to special allocate the item from box 20 from the lower tier but the screen 29 (special allocations) also provides the function to special allocate for this tier, not the lower tier. Anyone knows anyway we can try to override this?

There are override amounts for the TOTAL for each of those in the Schedule K input. Determine what they are without the lower tier. Add in the lower tier and do the overrides. You can find the input buy looking at the Schedule K in forms view and RIGHT click, then select "jump to input"

Here's wishing you many Happy Returns

@George4Tacks It looks like for 199A, we will need to track down the correct QBI and UBIA for each entity at each tier to do the nettting for positive and negative. To make it precise, I believe we need to get special allocation for each tier for the 199A.
