Taxpayer has 9 residential rental properties and 1 farm rental. Actively participates in all. Farm rental has income of $12,612. $ residential properties have losses totaling $(100,775) and 5 residential properties have income of $32,650. I am missing something because Lacerte is allowing $12,612 of loss to offset the farm rental income and taxing the $32.650. Shouldn't my income of $45,262 absorb that much loss and leave a passive loss carryforward of $55,513? All rental property screens a marked the same, as passive with active participation and not a real estate professional. HELP!

Is Farm rental on Form 4835?

The more I know the more I don’t know.

Yes. Believe it or not I got it to work. I marked all the properties as "real estate professional" taking them out of the loop or whatever they were in, then unmarked all. Now it is working, offsetting the passive income against losses and calculating the proper passive loss carryforward. Go figure!

Did you accidentally indicate they are self-rentals (or rental of land)?

Is there any personal use of the properties?

No. No self rental, land rental or personal use of property.

I was just shocked by how much taxes and prices for everything increased during the pandemic. I understand that this is how the economy is preserved, but it is too difficult for people. Personally, I had a business in which I invested a lot of money and effort. Still, unfortunately, high taxes at the height of the pandemic almost ruined my business. As a result, I was out of work for a long time until my friend showed me that you can play games for cash. These applications help me earn about 5-6 thousand dollars per month without spending a lot of time and effort. Thus, I will soon be able to overcome this crisis and get back on my feet.
