I am getting this error when I enter the information for my K-1 and go to Review.  I have an AJ code entered in Box 20 of my K-1, so I entered the relevant 199-A information.  That shows up in the "other information" box on the form, but this error keeps coming up.

Spent an hour on the phone with support with no resolution.

Have you tried deleting the K-1 and re-entering the information again? A recent update should have resolved this issue, but it may not apply to an existing K-1.

 

After you delete the K-1 and before you re-enter, check to see if Form 3468 remains in your return. If so, delete that form before you re-enter the K-1 as follows:

 

If you follow the steps below, the information from Schedule K-1 Box 20 Code AJ will appear on an Additional Information worksheet as part of your return. How you use this information is left for you to determine and enter as appropriate. Note that Code AJ is for Excess Business Losses, which would be used only if your net losses from all businesses are more than $289,000 ($578,000 if filing a joint return). If this doesn't apply to your tax situation, you may completely omit the following entries.

 

  1. Working through the Schedule K-1 entry screens, check the box for Box 20.
  2. Continue to the page to Enter Box 20 Info.
  3. Choose AJ - Excess business loss limitation from the drop down.
  4. Do not enter an amount here.
  5. Continue to the page to Enter Box 20 Other Information Amounts.
  6. In the section under "Other Description", enter the Supplemental Information provided with your K-1. Choose relevant descriptions then enter the amount for each line.
  7. Continue to back to the K-1 Summary page.
  8. Run SmartCheck again.

 

You can review the result using Forms Mode in TurboTax for Desktop.

  1. Find K-1 Partner [name of K-1] in the forms list on the left.
  2. Click on K1P Addl Info 1 under that form to open it in the large window,
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the form to Code AH to ZZ: Other Information.
  4. Confirm that your entries for Box 20 Code AJ appear on Line 6.
  5. Click Step-by-Step to return to the main screens.

This relates to Form 1065.   I have information in box 20 (Z, AJ).

 

I have deleted the K-1 completely and added back in to see if recent software updates might have fixed this.

@PatriciaV Do you have any insight on this issue?  I noticed you had posted on several other K-1 related problems!

I have the same issue.  Their support person worked on it for 1/2 hour before she got a supervisor on the line.  The supervisor informed me that it was a known bug and they were working to correct it.  It was supposed to be corrected by last Friday, but it wasn't.   I keep email updates that they are still working on it.

I can't get an answer to whether the bug affects what I owe; I'm inclined to think not, but I don't want to make a mistake.

If you look at all the detail pages of the K3, it lists the additional information on the left, so for example mine said Other Income, so I typed that in for the additional information it was looking for.
