Form 8995


Article: 50219

Overview

Form 8995 is used to calculate the Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction. Individual taxpayers, as well as certain trusts and estates, may be eligible to deduct up to 20% of their net QBI derived from a qualified trade or business, including income from pass-through entities (excluding C corporations). Additionally, the deduction may include 20% of qualified Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) dividends and qualified Publicly Traded (PTP) income.

However, the total QBI deduction is generally limited to 20% of taxable income, computed prior to the QBI deduction and reduced by net capital gain, increased by any qualified dividends.
