I'm dealing with the exact same frustrating situation here in Missouri! Filed my return electronically in early March and it's been stuck in "processing" for over 4 months now. Like so many others here, I've called multiple times and gotten completely different explanations each time - first they said "routine processing," then "additional verification needed," and most recently "system backlog due to upgrades." My federal refund came through in just 2 weeks, so I know there's nothing wrong with my return. I'm owed about $1,200 and really need it for some unexpected expenses that came up. What's most infuriating is the complete lack of transparency and consistent information. We're essentially giving them an interest-free loan while they take their sweet time with zero accountability. Reading through all these comments, it's clear this is a massive statewide problem affecting thousands of taxpayers due to Missouri's botched computer system rollout. I'm definitely going to try calling that taxpayer advocate number (573-751-3505) that several people mentioned and also reach out to my state representative's office. It's absolutely ridiculous that we have to become detectives just to get our own money back! Thanks for posting this - it's both maddening and reassuring to know I'm not alone in dealing with Missouri's completely broken tax system this year. Hopefully we can all get some real answers soon instead of being stuck in this bureaucratic nightmare!

I'm going through the exact same nightmare with my Missouri state refund! Filed electronically in March and I've been stuck in that "being processed" limbo for over 4 months now. Like everyone else here, I've called multiple times and gotten completely different stories each time - first it was "routine processing," then "additional verification required," and last week they told me it was a "system issue" but couldn't provide any specifics or timeline. My federal refund came through in less than 3 weeks, so I know my return is accurate. I'm owed about $1,150 and really need it for some unexpected expenses. What's most frustrating is the complete lack of transparency - we're basically giving them an interest-free loan while they give us the runaround. Based on all these comments, it's clear Missouri's new computer system has been a total disaster affecting thousands of taxpayers. I'm definitely going to try that taxpayer advocate number (573-751-3505) that several people mentioned and maybe contact my state rep too. It's ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to get our own money back! Thanks for posting this - at least now I know I'm not going crazy and this really is as widespread as it seems. Hopefully we can all get some real answers soon instead of being stuck in this bureaucratic mess!

As someone who just went through this exact headache with my single-member S-corp, I can't thank everyone enough for sharing their solutions! I was literally pulling my hair out trying to figure out why my K-1 looked so different this year. I ended up using the Statement A approach that everyone recommended, and it worked perfectly. My tax software (FreeTaxUSA) actually had the Statement A generator built right in - I just had to make sure I was entering the Section 199A information in the correct fields rather than trying to manually calculate Code V. One tip I'd add: if you're preparing your own corporate return, double-check that your software is set to the correct tax year before generating the K-1. I initially had it set to 2023 and was getting the old code format, which added to my confusion. Once I switched to 2024, everything fell into place with the new Statement A requirement. The IRS really should have sent out clearer guidance on this transition, but thankfully we have communities like this to help each other navigate these changes. Definitely saving this thread for reference next year!

As a newcomer to this community, I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of thanks for this incredibly helpful thread! I've been struggling with the same K-1 code changes for my single-member S-corp and was honestly considering paying my CPA extra just to handle this confusion. Reading through everyone's experiences has been like finding a treasure map. The consensus on using Statement A for Section 199A information and referencing it with Code V makes perfect sense now, even though the IRS instructions made it sound like rocket science. I'm using TurboTax Business and can confirm it does have the Statement A functionality built-in. Once I entered my business income and W-2 wages in the Section 199A section (rather than trying to manually calculate anything for Box 17), it automatically generated the statement and properly coded Box 17 with "STMT." One thing I learned the hard way: make sure you're entering your W-2 wages as the amount YOU paid yourself, not the total wages your S-corp paid (if you have other employees). I initially entered our total payroll and couldn't figure out why my Section 199A deduction seemed off until I realized the mistake. This community has saved me hours of frustration and probably a few hundred dollars in professional fees. Definitely bookmarking this thread and looking forward to contributing more as I learn!

Has anyone used the IRS transcript service for this? You can request a complete tax transcript that includes all filed schedules by using the Get Transcript tool on irs.gov. My bank actually preferred this over copies I provided because they knew it was coming directly from the IRS and included everything.

Great question! I went through this exact same situation with my credit union last year. The key thing to understand is that when banks say "ALL schedules," they literally mean every single schedule that was filed with your return, even if it shows zero amounts or doesn't seem relevant to your business. For your single-member LLC situation, you've covered the main ones (C, SE, and 1), but they might also want to see: - Schedule 2 (Additional Taxes) - if you had any additional taxes beyond what's on the main form - Schedule 3 (Additional Credits and Payments) - shows any tax credits you claimed - Any other schedules that were part of your original filing The easiest approach is to send them a complete copy of everything you filed with the IRS, including all pages. Banks often use third-party verification services that expect to see the entire return package exactly as it was submitted. If you're not sure what you originally filed, you can get an official tax transcript from the IRS website (irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript) which will show exactly what schedules were included in your return. This is actually what many banks prefer since it comes directly from the IRS. Don't stress too much about it - this is a standard request and once you provide everything, the process usually moves pretty quickly!

Just wanna check I'm understanding this correctly. If my brokerage sends me a 1099-B showing I made $2,000 profit trading BOIL, but the K-1 shows $500 in ordinary income from the partnership, I need to report BOTH the $2,000 capital gain AND the $500 ordinary income? That seems like double taxation on the same investment. What am I missing here?

You're absolutely right that brokers should warn investors about K-1 complexity! It's actually required disclosure, but it's usually buried deep in the prospectus that most people don't read. Here's a pro tip for future ETF investing: Before buying any commodity or futures-based ETF, check the fund's website for their "tax information" section. If they mention issuing Schedule K-1s, you'll know what you're getting into. You can also look at the fund structure - if it says "LP" (Limited Partnership) anywhere, that's your red flag for K-1s. Most major brokers also have a filter in their research tools to exclude partnerships if you want to avoid K-1s entirely. It's under the "fund structure" or "tax structure" filters when screening ETFs. The good news is that once you've dealt with it once, it gets easier. And honestly, the extra tax complexity is often worth it for the specific exposure these funds provide - you just need to factor in the additional tax prep time/cost when deciding if the investment makes sense for your situation.

Definitely call your state unemployment office to verify those 2024 payments - that's the smart move! If you're certain you didn't receive benefits in 2024, there could be fraud involved where someone filed claims using your SSN. When you call, have your Social Security number ready and ask them to review all unemployment claims filed under your name for 2024. They can tell you the exact dates benefits were paid, the amounts, and whether the claims were filed by you or potentially fraudulent. If it turns out to be fraud, they'll guide you through the process of disputing the claims and getting a corrected 1099-G issued. The IRS has specific procedures for handling fraudulent unemployment income, so don't just ignore the form - you'll want documentation showing it was fraudulent if that's the case. Also, if you do discover fraud, make sure to file a police report and consider placing a fraud alert on your credit reports. Unemployment fraud often goes hand-in-hand with other identity theft issues.

Great advice from everyone here! I went through a similar situation last year and wanted to add a few practical tips that helped me navigate the 1099-G confusion. First, if you're using TurboTax like the original poster, when you get to the "Federal Taxes" section, look for "Wages & Income" and then "Unemployment compensation." TurboTax will specifically ask if you received a 1099-G and walk you through entering the amounts from each box. It's pretty straightforward once you find the right section. Second, regarding the timing concern about receiving a 1099-G for 2024 when you haven't been on unemployment recently - this actually happened to me too. It turned out there was a processing delay with my state, and they had issued a final payment in early 2024 for benefits I received in late 2023. The payment was small (like $200) but still required the 1099-G. So it's possible you did receive some payment in 2024 even if you weren't actively collecting benefits. That said, definitely verify with your state unemployment office as others have suggested. Even if it turns out to be legitimate, it's better to confirm than to assume. And if you do need to call them, try calling right when they open - I had much better luck getting through early in the morning rather than later in the day.
