1120-S Schedule K- Instructions for Form 1120-S Schedule K-1

Caution: DRAFT—NOT FOR FILING
This is an early release draft of an IRS tax form, instructions, or
publication, which the IRS is providing for your information as a courtesy.
Do not file draft forms. Also, do not rely on draft forms, instructions, and
publications for filing. We generally do not release drafts of forms until we
believe we have incorporated all changes. However, unexpected issues
sometimes arise, or legislation is passed, necessitating a change to a draft
form. In addition, forms generally are subject to OMB approval before they
can be officially released. Drafts of instructions and publications usually
have at least some changes before being officially released.
Early release drafts are at IRS.gov/DraftForms, and may remain there
even after the final release is posted at IRS.gov/DownloadForms. All
information about all forms, instructions, and pubs is at IRS.gov/Forms.
Almost every form and publication also has its own page on IRS.gov. For
example, the Form 1040 page is at IRS.gov/Form1040; the Publication 17
page is at IRS.gov/Pub17; the Form W-4 page is at IRS.gov/W4; and the
Schedule A (Form 1040) page is at IRS.gov/ScheduleA. If typing in a link
above instead of clicking on it, be sure to type the link into the address bar
of your browser, not in a Search box. Note that these are friendly shortcut
links that will automatically go to the actual link for the page.
If you wish, you can submit comments about draft or final forms,
instructions, or publications at IRS.gov/FormsComments. We cannot
respond to all comments due to the high volume we receive. Please note that
we may not be able to consider many suggestions until the subsequent
revision of the product.

with respect to the section 965 net tax
liability. Triggering events include (1)
the corporation ceases to be an S
corporation, (2) a liquidation or sale of
substantially all assets of the S
corporation, a cessation of business
by the S corporation, the S

corporation.

Reminder

We expanded the stock basis
worksheet. The new worksheet will
make it easier for you to figure the
basis of your stock and debt in the
corporation at the end of each
corporate tax year. See the
Worksheet for Figuring a
Shareholder’s Stock and Debt Basis.

Sep 26, 2018

The corporation uses Schedule K-1 to
report your share of the corporation's
income, deductions, credits, and other
items. Keep it for your records. Don't
file it with your tax return unless
backup withholding is reported in
box 13 using code O. (See the
instructions for Code O. Backup
withholding, later.) The corporation
files a copy of Schedule K-1 with the
IRS.
For your protection, Schedule K-1
may show only the last four digits of
your identifying number (social
security number (SSN), employer
identification number (EIN), or
individual taxpayer identification
number (ITIN)). However, the
corporation has reported your
complete identifying number to the
IRS.
You may be liable for tax on your
share of the corporation's income,
whether or not distributed. Include
your share on your tax return if a
return is required. Use these
instructions to help you report the
items shown on Schedule K-1 on your
tax return.
Your share of S corporation income
isn't self-employment income and it
isn't subject to self-employment tax.
The amount of loss and
deduction you may claim on
CAUTION your tax return may be less
than the amount reported on
Schedule K-1. It is the shareholder's
responsibility to consider and apply
any applicable limitations. See
Limitations on Losses, Deductions,
and Credits, later, for more
information.

!

Schedule K-1 doesn't show actual
dividend distributions the corporation
made to you. The corporation must
report such amounts totaling $10 or
more for the calendar year on Form
Cat. No. 11521O

Generally, you must report corporate
items shown on your Schedule K-1
(and any attached statements) the
same way that the corporation treated
the items on its return.
If the treatment on your original or
amended return is inconsistent with
the corporation's treatment, or if the
corporation hasn't filed a return, file
Form 8082, Notice of Inconsistent
Treatment or Administrative
Adjustment Request (AAR), with your
original or amended return to identify
and explain any inconsistency (or to
note that a corporate return hasn't
been filed).
If you are required to file Form 8082
but don't do so, you may be subject to
the accuracy-related penalty. This
penalty is in addition to any tax that
results from making your amount or
treatment of the item consistent with
that shown on the corporation's
return. Any deficiency that results
from making the amounts consistent
may be assessed immediately.

Errors

If you believe the corporation has
made an error on your Schedule K-1,
notify the corporation and ask for a
corrected Schedule K-1. Don't change
any items on your copy of
Schedule K-1. Be sure that the
corporation sends a copy of the
corrected Schedule K-1 to the IRS. If
you are unable to reach an agreement
with the corporation regarding the
inconsistency, file Form 8082.

Sale of S Corporation
Stock

Gain or loss from the disposition of
your S corporation stock may be net
investment income under section
1411 and could be subject to the net
investment income tax. See Form
8960, Net Investment Income

Tax—Individuals, Estates, and Trusts,
and its instructions for information
about how to figure and report the tax.

International Boycotts

Every corporation that had operations
in, or related to, a boycotting country,
company, or a national of a boycotting
country must file Form 5713,
International Boycott Report.

Other limitations may apply to
specific deductions (for example, the
section 179 expense deduction).
Specific limitations apply before
at-risk and passive loss limitations.

Basis Limitations

Generally, the deduction for your
share of aggregate losses and
deductions reported on Schedule K-1
is limited to the basis of your stock
and loans from you to the corporation.
For details and exceptions, see
section 1366(d). The basis of your
stock is generally figured at the end of
the corporation's tax year. Any losses
and deductions not allowed this year
because of the basis limit can be
carried forward indefinitely and
deducted in a later year subject to the
basis limit for that year.

You may elect to decrease your
basis under (4) prior to decreasing
your basis under (3). If you make this
election, any amount described under
(3) that exceeds the basis of your
stock and debt owed to you by the
corporation is treated as an amount
described under (3) for the following
tax year.

DRAFT AS OF
October 4, 2018

If the corporation cooperated with
an international boycott, it must give
you a copy of its Form 5713. You must
file your own Form 5713 to report the
corporation's activities and any other
boycott operations that you may have.
You may lose certain tax benefits if
the corporation participated in, or
cooperated with, an international
boycott. See Form 5713 and its
instructions for details.

Elections

Generally, the corporation decides
how to figure taxable income from its
operations. However, certain
elections are made by you separately
on your income tax return and not by
the corporation. These elections are
made under the following code
sections.
• Section 59(e) (deduction of certain
qualified expenditures ratably over the
period of time specified in that
section). For details, see the
instructions for code J in box 12.
• Section 263A(d) (preproductive
expenses). See the instructions for
code M in box 12.
• Section 617 (deduction and
recapture of certain mining
exploration expenditures).
• Section 901 (foreign tax credit).

Additional Information

For more information on the treatment
of S corporation income, deductions,
credits, and other items, see Pub.
535, Business Expenses; Pub. 550,
Investment Income and Expenses;
and Pub. 925, Passive Activity and
At-Risk Rules.
To get forms and publications, see
the instructions for your tax return or
visit the IRS website at IRS.gov.

Limitations on Losses,
Deductions, and Credits

There are potential limitations on
corporate losses that you can deduct
on your return. These limitations and
the order in which you must apply
them are as follows: the basis
limitations, the at-risk limitations, the
passive activity limitations, and the
excess business loss limitations.
These limitations are discussed
below.

You are responsible for keeping the
information needed to figure the basis
of your stock in the corporation.
Schedule K-1 provides information to
help you figure your stock basis at the
end of each corporate tax year. The
basis of your stock (generally, its cost)
is adjusted annually as follows and,
except as noted, in the order listed. In
addition, basis may be adjusted under
other provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. You should generally
use the Worksheet for Figuring a
Shareholder’s Stock and Debt Basis
to figure your aggregate stock and
debt basis.
1. Basis is increased by (a) all
income (including tax-exempt income)
reported on Schedule K-1 and (b) the
excess of the deduction for depletion
(other than oil and gas depletion) over
the basis of the property subject to
depletion.
You must report on your return
(if you are required to file one)
CAUTION any amount required to be
included in gross income for it to
increase your basis.

!

2. Basis is decreased (but not
below zero) by (a) property
distributions (including cash) made by
the corporation reported on
Schedule K-1, box 16, code D, minus
(b) the amount of such distributions in
excess of the basis in your stock.
3. Basis is decreased (but not
below zero) by (a) nondeductible
expenses and (b) the depletion
deduction for any oil and gas property
held by the corporation, but only to the
extent your share of the property's
adjusted basis exceeds that
deduction.
4. Basis is decreased (but not
below zero) by all losses and
deductions reported on Schedule K-1.

To make the election, attach a
statement to your timely filed original
or amended return that states you
agree to the carryover rule of
Regulations section 1.1367-1(g) and
the name of the S corporation to
which the rule applies. Once made,
the election applies to the year for
which it is made and all future tax
years for that S corporation, unless
the IRS agrees to revoke your
election.

The basis of each share of stock is
increased or decreased (but not
below zero) based on its pro rata
share of the above adjustments. If the
total decreases in basis attributable to
a share exceed that share's basis, the
excess reduces (but not below zero)
the remaining bases of all other
shares of stock in proportion to the
remaining basis of each of those
shares.
Basis of loans. The basis of your
loans to the corporation is generally
the balance the corporation owes you,
adjusted for any reductions and
restorations of loan basis (see the
instructions for box 16, code E). Any
amounts described in (3) and (4),
earlier, not used to offset amounts in
(1), earlier, or reduce your stock
basis, are used to reduce your loan
basis (to the extent of such basis prior
to such reduction).

!

CAUTION

When determining your basis
in loans to the corporation,
remember that:

• Distributions don't reduce loan
basis, and
• Loans that a shareholder
guarantees or co-signs aren't part of a
shareholder's loan basis.
Shareholders only obtain basis from
acting as a guarantee or in a similar
capacity to the extent the shareholder
makes a payment pursuant to the
guarantee.
See Regulations section
1.1366-2(a) and section 1367 and its
regulations for more details.

code D. Don’t include any Form
1099-DIV distributions on this line.
Note. If the amount of the distribution
is more than the stock basis before
distributions, report the excess
amount as a capital gain on Form

Part I. Shareholder Stock Basis

This worksheet addresses
adjustments to stock basis as
CAUTION provided under section 1367.
Other code sections might also cause
a reduction in S corporation stock
basis. For example, certain credits
require the reduction of both an S
corporation’s assets as well as the
shareholder’s stock basis. See
sections 50(c)(1) and (5) for details.

!

assets, see section 357(c). See
section 358 for more information on
the basis of stock received in a
section 351 transaction.
The basis of inherited property is
generally the fair market value (FMV)
at the date of death or the alternate
valuation date.
The basis of stock acquired by gift
is generally the basis of the stock in
the hands of the donor. There are
special rules if the FMV of the stock is
less than the donor’s adjusted basis.
See Regulations section 1.1015-1.
The basis for stock received as
compensation is the FMV on the date
the compensation is included in
income. See Pub. 551 for details.

Line 1. Enter your basis in the stock
of the S corporation at the beginning
of the corporation’s tax year. Unless
this is your initial year owning stock in
the S corporation, this amount should
be the same as your ending stock
basis from the prior tax year.
Stock basis can’t be less than zero.
Don’t include any basis from
indebtedness on this line. Stock basis
and debt basis must be figured
separately. Debt basis is addressed in
Part II of this worksheet.
Line 2. Enter any additional
contributions to the capital of the
S corporation or any additional
acquisitions of stock. Don’t include
any loans to the S corporation.
The basis of stock you purchased
is usually its cost.
If you contributed property to the
S corporation in exchange for stock in
a section 351 transaction, your stock
basis is generally figured by taking the
carryover basis of assets transferred
to the corporation, less the liabilities
assumed by the corporation. If the
assumed liabilities exceed the
adjusted tax basis of the contributed

Line 3. Enter on lines 3a through 3m
all separately figured and
non-separately figured items of
income from the Schedule K-1. See
below for special instructions.

Reminder. Enter only positive
amounts from the Schedule K-1 on
line 3. Negative amounts (decreases
to stock basis) are entered on Part III.
Line 3j. Enter the amount by which
your cumulative depletion deduction
exceeds your proportionate share of
basis in the property subject to
depletion. See information reported in
Schedule K-1, box 15, using code C.
For oil and gas depletion, don’t
enter an amount. See the instructions
for line 8b for the decrease to basis.
Line 3k. Enter the sum of the
amounts from Schedule K-1, box 16,
codes A and B.
Basis isn’t increased by
excluded discharge of
CAUTION indebtedness income of the
S corporation under sections 108(a)
and 108(d)(7)(A).

Line 8a. Enter the amount from
Schedule K-1, box 16, code C.

Line 8b. Enter the amount of oil and
gas depletion claimed on your
personal return up to your
proportionate share of basis in the
property subject to depletion. Any
cumulative depletion in excess of your
proportionate share of basis in the
property subject to depletion won’t
reduce your basis.
Don’t enter an amount for depletion
not related to oil and gas property.
Line 11. Use Part III to figure the total
allowable loss and deduction items
from stock basis. Enter the total from
Part III, line 13, column (c). This
amount can’t exceed the amount on
line 10.
Line 12. Use Part II to figure the debt
basis restoration, if any. Enter the total
from Part II, line 8.
Line 13. Enter any other decreases
to stock basis not accounted for on
the lines above. This includes the
reduction to basis for the sale or
redemption of part of your stock.
If a portion of your stock is
TIP redeemed, sold, or otherwise
disposed of during the year,
attach two separate worksheets. Use
the first to figure your stock basis at
the date of sale and the second to

Loans made to the S corporation
that aren’t evidenced by a written
instrument are referred to as an open
account debt and aren’t separately
tracked. If an open account debt has a
year-end balance of more than
$25,000, it will be classified as a
formal note at the beginning of the
next tax year and must be separately
tracked.
Loans that a shareholder
guarantees or co-signs aren’t
CAUTION part of a shareholder’s loan
basis except to the extent the
shareholder makes a payment on the
loan guaranteed or co-signed.

Line 1. Enter the balance of each
loan to the S corporation at the
beginning of the corporation’s tax year
in a separate column.
Line 2. Enter any new loans made
during the tax year and evidenced by
a formal note in a separate column. If
a formal note is refinanced, any
increase should be entered on line 2
under the same column as the original
loan.
Advances and repayments made
during the S corporation’s tax year on
an open account are netted at the
close of the S corporation’s tax year to
determine the amount of any net
advance or net repayment. See
Regulations section 1.1367-2(d)(2).
Enter any net advances on line 2
under the same column as the open
account debt. If this is the first year of

Line 4. For a formal note, enter the
amount of principal repayment
specific to each loan.
For open account debt, if the
repayments exceed the advances for
the tax year, the net repayment should
be entered on line 4.

Line 6. Enter the debt basis of your
loan(s) to the S corporation at the
beginning of the corporation’s tax
year.

Line 7. Enter the amount from line 2
on line 7.

Line 8. You have reduced debt basis
if line 6 is less than line 1.
Per section 1367(b)(2)(B), if debt
basis has been reduced, it can only
be restored with a net increase. The
net increase is the amount by which
the items that increase stock basis per
section 1367(a)(1) (for example,
income, tax exempt income, and
excess depletion) exceed the items
that decrease stock basis per section
1367(a)(2) (for example, losses,
deductions, nondeductibles,
nondividend distributions, etc.). See
Regulations section 1.1367-2(c)(1).
The net increase is figured as
follows:
Part I, line 4
Minus Part I, line 6
Minus Part I, line 9
Minus Part I, line 13 (as applicable)
Minus Part III, line 13(a)
Minus Part III, line 13(b)

Part III. Allowable Loss and
Deduction Items
The corporate losses and other
deduction items are limited to the sum
of your stock and debt basis. When
stock and debt basis is insufficient,
and there is more than one type of
loss or deduction item that reduces
basis, the amounts allowed as a loss
or deduction are allocated on a pro
rata basis. See Regulations sections
1.1366-2(a)(4) and (5).

Column (b). Enter any loss or
deduction items disallowed due to
basis limitations in prior years that
were carried forward.
Column (c). If Part I, line 10, is zero,
skip column (c).
If stock basis, as reported on Part I,
line 10, is greater than the sum of
column (a) and column (b), line 13,
enter the sum of each line for column
(a) plus column (b) in column (c). If
stock basis, as reported on Part I,
line 10, is less than the sum of column
(a) and column (b), line 13, enter the
pro rata amount on the corresponding
line in column (c). The total allocation
amount reported in column (c),
line 13, can’t exceed the amount
reported on Part I, line 10.

If debt basis, as reported on Part II,
line 14, is greater than column (a) plus
column (b) minus column (c), line 13,
enter column (a) plus column (b)
minus column (c), in column (d) for
each line item. If debt basis, as
reported on Part II, line 14, is less than
column (a) plus column (b) minus
column (c), line 13, enter the pro rata
amount on the corresponding line in
column (d). The total allocation
amount reported in column (d),
line 13, can’t exceed the amount
reported on Part II, line 14.
The allowable losses and
deductions from columns (c) and (d)
should be reported on the appropriate
areas of your return (subject to any
additional limitations).

At-Risk Limitations

Generally, if you have (a) a loss or
other deduction from any activity
carried on as a trade or business or
for the production of income by the
corporation, and (b) amounts in the
activity for which you aren't at risk, you
will have to complete Form 6198,
At-Risk Limitations, to figure your
allowable loss for the activity.

Passive Activity Limitations

Section 469 provides rules that limit
the deduction of certain losses and
credits. These rules apply to
shareholders who:
• Are individuals, estates, or trusts;
and
• Have a passive activity loss or
credit for the tax year.

4. Activities of trading personal
property for the account of owners of
interests in the activities.
If you have a passive activity loss
or credit, use Form 8582, Passive
Activity Loss Limitations, to figure your
allowable passive losses, and Form
8582-CR, Passive Activity Credit
Limitations, to figure your allowable
passive credits. See the instructions
for these forms for details.

DRAFT AS OF
October 4, 2018

The at-risk rules generally limit the
amount of loss and other deductions
that you can claim to the amount you
could actually lose in the activity.
These losses and deductions include
a loss on the disposition of assets and
the section 179 expense deduction.
However, if you acquired your stock
before 1987, the at-risk rules don't
apply to losses from an activity of
holding real property placed in service
before 1987 by the corporation. The
activity of holding mineral property
doesn't qualify for this exception.

Generally, you aren't at risk for
amounts such as the following.
• The basis of your stock in the
corporation or the basis of your loans
to the corporation if the cash or other
property used to purchase the stock
or make the loans was from a source
(a) covered by nonrecourse
indebtedness (except for certain
qualified nonrecourse financing, as
defined in section 465(b)(6)); (b)
protected against loss by a guarantee,
stop-loss agreement, or other similar
arrangement; or (c) that is covered by
indebtedness from a person who has
an interest in the activity or from a
person related to a person (except
you) having such an interest, other
than a creditor.
• Any cash or property contributed to
a corporate activity, or your interest in
the corporate activity, that is (a)
covered by nonrecourse
indebtedness (except for certain
qualified nonrecourse financing, as
defined in section 465(b)(6)); (b)
protected against loss by a guarantee,
stop-loss agreement, or other similar
arrangement; or (c) that is covered by
indebtedness from a person who has
an interest in the activity or from a
person related to a person (except
you) having such an interest, other
than a creditor.
Any loss from a section 465 activity
not allowed for this tax year will be
treated as a deduction allocable to the
activity in the next tax year.
Since at-risk limitations apply for
each activity, you should get a
separate statement of income,
expenses, and other items, for each
activity from the corporation.

Generally, passive activities
include:
1. Trade or business activities in
which you didn't materially participate,
and
2. Activities that meet the
definition of rental activities under
Temporary Regulations section
1.469-1T(e)(3) and Regulations
section 1.469-1(e)(3).

Passive activities don't include the
following.
1. Trade or business activities in
which you materially participated.
2. Rental real estate activities in
which you materially participated if
you were a real estate professional for
the tax year. You were a real estate
professional only if you met both of
the following conditions.
a. More than half of the personal
services you performed in trades or
businesses were performed in real
property trades or businesses in
which you materially participated.
b. You performed more than 750
hours of services in real property
trades or businesses in which you
materially participated.

If you are married filing jointly,
either you or your spouse must
separately meet both (a) and (b) of
the above conditions, without taking
into account services performed by
the other spouse.
A real property trade or business is
any real property development,
redevelopment, construction,
reconstruction, acquisition,
conversion, rental, operation,
management, leasing, or brokerage
trade or business. Services you
performed as an employee aren't
treated as performed in a real
property trade or business unless you
owned more than 5% of the stock (or
more than 5% of the capital or profits
interest) in the employer.
3. The rental of a dwelling unit any
shareholder used for personal
purposes during the year for more
than the greater of 14 days or 10% of
the number of days that the residence
was rented at fair rental value.

-8-

If the corporation had more than
one activity, it will attach a statement
to your Schedule K-1 that identifies
each activity (trade or business
activity, rental real estate activity,
rental activity other than rental real
estate, portfolio income) and specifies
the income (loss), deductions, and
credits from each activity.

Material participation. You must
determine if you materially
participated (a) in each trade or
business activity held through the
corporation and (b) if you were a real
estate professional (defined earlier),
in each rental real estate activity held
through the corporation.
Each interest in rental real estate is
a separate activity, unless you elect to
treat all interests in rental real estate
as one activity. For details on making
this election, see the Instructions for
Schedule E (Form 1040),
Supplemental Income and Loss.
All determinations of material
participation are based on your
participation during the corporation's
tax year.
Material participation standards for
shareholders who are individuals are
listed below. Special rules apply to
certain retired or disabled farmers and
to the surviving spouses of farmers.
See the Instructions for Form 8582 for
details.
Individuals. If you are an
individual, you materially participated
in an activity only if one or more of the
following apply.
1. You participated in the activity
for more than 500 hours during the tax
year.
2. Your participation in the activity
for the tax year constituted
substantially all the participation in the
activity of all individuals (including
individuals who aren't owners of
interests in the activity).
3. You participated in the activity
for more than 100 hours during the tax
year, and your participation in the
activity for the tax year wasn't less
than the participation in the activity of
any other individual (including
individuals who weren’t owners of

Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1120S) (2018)

interests in the activity) for the tax
year.
4. The activity was a significant
participation activity for the tax year,
and you participated in all significant
participation activities (including
activities outside the corporation)
during the year for more than 500
hours. A significant participation
activity is any trade or business
activity in which you participated for
more than 100 hours during the year
and in which you didn't materially
participate under any of the material
participation tests (other than this
test).
5. You materially participated in
the activity for any 5 tax years
(whether or not consecutive) during
the 10 tax years that immediately
precede the tax year.
6. The activity was a personal
service activity and you materially
participated in the activity for any 3 tax
years (whether or not consecutive)
preceding the tax year. A personal
service activity involves the
performance of personal services in
the fields of health, law, engineering,
architecture, accounting, actuarial
science, performing arts, consulting,
or any other trade or business in
which capital isn't a material
income-producing factor.
7. Based on all the facts and
circumstances, you participated in the
activity on a regular, continuous, and
substantial basis during the tax year.

finances or operations of the activity
for your own use, and
c. Monitoring the finances or
operations of the activity in a
nonmanagerial capacity.
Effect of determination. Income
(loss), deductions, and credits from
an activity are nonpassive if you
determine that:
• You materially participated in a
trade or business activity of the
corporation, or
• You were a real estate professional
(defined earlier) in a rental real estate
activity of the corporation.
If you determine that you didn't
materially participate in a trade or
business activity of the corporation or
if you have income (loss), deductions,
or credits from a rental activity of the
corporation (other than a rental real
estate activity in which you materially
participated as a real estate
professional), the amounts from that
activity are passive. Report passive
income (losses), deductions, and
credits as follows.
1. If you have an overall gain (the
excess of income over deductions
and losses, including any prior year
unallowed loss) from a passive
activity, report the income,
deductions, and losses from the
activity as indicated in these
instructions.
2. If you have an overall loss (the
excess of deductions and losses,
including any prior year unallowed
loss, over income) or credits from a
passive activity, report the income,
deductions, losses, and credits from
all passive activities using the
Instructions for Form 8582 or Form
8582-CR, to see if your deductions,
losses, and credits are limited under
the passive activity rules.

been made) is treated as actively
participating for its tax years ending
less than 2 years after the decedent's
death, if the decedent would have
satisfied the active participation
requirement for the activity for the tax
year the decedent died.
You aren't considered to actively
participate in a rental real estate
activity if, at any time during the tax
year, your interest (including your
spouse's interest) in the activity was
less than 10% (by value) of all
interests in the activity.
Active participation is a less
stringent requirement than material
participation. You may be treated as
actively participating if you
participated, for example, in making
management decisions or arranging
for others to provide services (such as
repairs) in a significant and bona fide
sense. Management decisions that
can count as active participation
include approving new tenants,
deciding rental terms, approving
capital or repair expenditures, and
other similar decisions.

Work counted toward material
participation. Generally, any work
that you or your spouse does in
connection with an activity held
through an S corporation (where you
own your stock at the time the work is
done) is counted toward material
participation. However, work in
connection with the activity isn't
counted toward material participation
if either of the following applies.
1. The work isn't the type of work
that owners of the activity would
usually do and one of the principal
purposes of the work that you or your
spouse does is to avoid the passive
loss or credit limitations.
2. You do the work in your
capacity as an investor and you aren't
directly involved in the day-to-day
operations of the activity. Examples of
work done as an investor that wouldn't
count toward material participation
include:
a. Studying and reviewing
financial statements or reports on
operations of the activity,
b. Preparing or compiling
summaries or analyses of the

Special allowance for a rental real
estate activity. If you actively
participated in a rental real estate
activity, you may be able to deduct up
to $25,000 of the loss (or credit
equivalent to a $25,000 deduction)
from the activity from nonpassive
income. This “special allowance” is an
exception to the general rule
disallowing losses in excess of
income from passive activities. The
special allowance isn't available if you
were married, file a separate return for
the year, and didn't live apart from
your spouse at all times during the
year.
Only individuals can actively
participate in a rental real estate
activity. However, a decedent's estate

allowance that single individuals and
married individuals filing a joint return
can qualify for is $25,000. The
maximum is $12,500 for married
individuals who file separate returns
and who lived apart at all times during
the year. The maximum special
allowance for which an estate can
qualify is $25,000 reduced by the
special allowance for which the
surviving spouse qualifies.
If your modified adjusted gross
income (defined below) is $100,000
or less ($50,000 or less if married
filing separately), your loss is
deductible up to the maximum special
allowance referred to in the preceding
paragraph. If your modified adjusted
gross income is more than $100,000
(more than $50,000 if married filing
separately), the special allowance is
limited to 50% of the difference
between $150,000 ($75,000 if married
filing separately) and your modified
adjusted gross income. When
modified adjusted gross income is
$150,000 or more ($75,000 or more if
married filing separately), there is no
special allowance.
Modified adjusted gross income is
your adjusted gross income figured
without taking into account the
following amounts, if applicable.
• Any passive activity loss.
• Any rental real estate loss allowed
under section 469(c)(7) to real estate
professionals (defined earlier).

• Any overall loss from a publicly
traded partnership.
• Any taxable social security or
equivalent railroad retirement
benefits.
• Any deductible contributions to an
IRA or certain other qualified
retirement plans under section 219.
• The domestic production activities

• The student loan interest deduction.
• The tuition and fees deduction.
• The deductible part of

identify the property for which the
expenditures were paid or incurred. If
there is more than one type of
expenditure, the amount of each type
will also be listed.
If you deduct these expenditures in
full in the current year, they are
treated as adjustments or tax
preference items for purposes of
alternative minimum tax. However,
you may elect to amortize these
expenditures over the number of
years in the applicable period rather
than deduct the full amount in the

Code AC. Other information. The
corporation will use code AC to report
the following to shareholders.
1. Any information you need to
complete a disclosure statement for
reportable transactions in which the
corporation participates. If the
corporation participates in a
transaction that must be disclosed on
Form 8886, Reportable Transaction
Disclosure Statement, both you and
the corporation may be required to file
Form 8886 for the transaction. The
determination of whether you are
required to disclose a transaction of
the corporation is based on the
category(ies) under which the
transaction qualifies for disclosure
and is determined by you and the
corporation. You may have to pay a
penalty if you are required to file Form
8886 and don't do so. See the
Instructions for Form 8886 for details.
2. Gross farming and fishing
income. If you are an individual
shareholder, report this income, as an
item of information, on Schedule E
(Form 1040), Part V, line 42. Don't
report this income elsewhere on Form
1040.
For a shareholder that is an estate
or trust, report this income to the
beneficiaries, as an item of
information, on Schedule K-1 (Form
1041). Don't report it elsewhere on
Form 1041.
3. Excess business loss limitation.
If the corporation has deductions
attributable to a business activity, it
will provide a statement showing the
aggregate gross income or gain and
the aggregate deductions from the

limitation. See section 461 and the
Instructions for Form 461 for details.
4. The amount included in gross
income with respect to qualified zone
academy bonds issued before
October 4, 2008. Income with respect
to these qualified zone academy
bonds can't be used to increase your
stock basis. Because this amount is
already included in income elsewhere
on Schedule K-1, you must reduce

your stock basis by this amount. See
Part I, line 13, of the Worksheet for
Figuring a Shareholder's Stock and
Debt Basis.
5. The amount included in gross
income with respect to clean
renewable energy bonds. Income with
respect to clean renewable energy

Figuring a Shareholder's Stock and
Debt Basis.

will provide a statement showing the
amounts of each type of income or
gain that is included in inversion gain.
The corporation has included
inversion gain in income elsewhere on
Schedule K-1. Inversion gain is also
reported under code AC because your
taxable income and alternative
minimum taxable income can't be less
than the inversion gain. Also, your
inversion gain (a) isn't taken into
account in figuring the net operating
loss (NOL) for the tax year or the NOL
that can be carried over to each tax
year, (b) may limit your credits, and
(c) is treated as income from sources
within the United States for the foreign
tax credit. See section 7874 for
details.

need to file your return not shown
elsewhere on Schedule K-1.
