Code Z in box 20 reports your qualified business income (QBI) . You often enter the same figure reported in box 1 to 3 of your schedule K-1. It represents the portion of your income that qualifies as QBI, which can allow you a deduction on your tax return.

Ok, but even with an amount entered in Box 20 for code Z, I still get that message.  How do I access Statement A?  I tried double clicking on the field that contains the amount for Box 20 code Z and filling that in, but I still get the same error.

Enter IRS form K-1 (1065) information at the screen Enter Box 20 info,

 

  • Select code Z Section 199A information.  Do not enter a value to the right.
  • Click Continue.
  • At the screen We need some information about your 199A income, you will likely enter the following information: 
  •     Ordinary business income (loss) from this business, and/or
  •     Rental income (loss).

 

Enter these values for the Qualified Business Income Deduction to be calculated.

 

Some preparers of the K-1 form will include the Section 199A information on a separate statement.

 

It is possible that additional information may need to be entered.  Click the box to the left to open up entry boxes.
