    If you had a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) or Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) , the deduction equals 20 percent of qualified REIT dividends and qualified PTP income.  The REIT dividends are reported on a 1099-DIV Box 5. This is the most common case if you did not enter any QBID information, because TurboTax will automatically calculate the QBID.
