What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
My wife is a passive general partner (18.75%) in a partnership whose business is rental real estate in Louisiana. The partnership is currently being dissolved after having sold its only property earlier this year (2009) after collecting insurance on the structure in 2007, after it was irreparably damaged by hurricane Katrina. For 2008, her K-1 showed a net rental real estate loss of $6585, and she personally had out-of-pocket unreimbursed partnership legal expenses of $22K. My question is where can we deduct the $22K? We are WA residents, with other small general partnership interests in LA.
Thank you.
