K-1

My client has a K-1 showing ordinary income and the statement A QBI pass through attached to the K-1 shows a loss. Does that makes sense? Shouldn't they be the same amounts?

All ordinary income may not be QBI. Some ordinary income could be foreign source, for example.

Using hypothetical numbers:

K1 box is 1,000 income

Statement A shows - 15,000 loss for QBI.

One of the other partners gets a special allocation for a loss. That loss shows in their box 1 on the k1 also, but their Qbi is the same 15,000 loss as my clients. 

It looks like the statement A qbi is being allocated evenly, while the K1 box 1 shows the special allocation. 

Shouldn't the statement A Qbi reflect the special allocation also?

It should.
