下面是TurboTax中关于QBI的解释:
Beginning in 2018, taxpayers may receive a tax deduction of up to 20% of "qualified business income" (QBI). In order for income to be eligible for this deduction, there are a few criteria that must be met. If the activity doesn't meet these criteria, it won't be eligible for this deduction, meaning your taxes will probably be higher. (However, in cases where an activity generates a loss for tax purposes, then being eligible for this deduction might actually increase your taxes since it could reduce the deduction you're eligible for from other activities.)
我今年的rental income是loss,如果选"Yes, this income is QBI", 我就要多交税,TurboTax也是这样计算的。怎么可以因为loss反而要多交税呢?但看了关于QBI的解释,感觉出租房收入应该算是QBI。是否可以选“No, this income is not qualified". 多谢解惑。
