Client has 1120-S construction company.

When I import the K-1 into his 1040, if ends up on Sch E, p2, Part II as passive income which it is clearly not.

How do I change this in either the 1040 or the 1120-S?

Thanks in advance,

Christopher

In ProSeries there is a box to check on the 1040 K-1 worksheet (fairly close to the top) that will fix that.  I assume that there is something similar in ProConnect.

What did it import as? 1065 K-1, but it really is a 1120S K-1?

I try very hard to never use import. I have found it to be way more work then just entering the information.

It imported the 1120-S K-1.  I've confirmed this from his 1040 Sch E, pg 2.

In ProSeries, you could indicate it wasn't passive.  Can't find that option in ProConnect.
