My wife and I have started two new businesses in 2020 under two separate LLC's as partnerships - can we combine the two on one 1065 and have only single K-1 forms, or do we have to separate them? Thanks

No, you will have to separate them (enter them separately, each on its own Form 1065).

 

If you reside in a community property state, you might be able to treat the LLCs as qualified entities (disregarded for federal income tax purposes) and file for each LLC on two separate Schedules C (i.e., two Schedules C for one LLC and two Schedules C for the other LLC).
