I have a 4 person llc files as 1065. 2 husband and wife. both women work in business and take guarantee payments.
husbands will do odd repairs etc around business not much. I know both women are active individual. but the men are they passive. all are 25% partners. I am thinking they don't material participate in the business with the 500 hrs
so if loss then theirs would be passive and carry until the 1065 has gain. and when there is a profit 2 will be subj to SE and 2 will not.
Am I thinking along the right track? I of course would like to have his K-1 offset some of hers but they don't work it.
thanks
