But it is confusing to me that it is a different answer and in one case it is deducted and the other not.
Trying to explain to clients how PTP's are taxed is usually difficult. Any since the broker never mentions any of this, so they are blind-sided. (I am sure that the broker doesn't understand it either.) I have cautioned several of my clients that they may not want to do those sorts of investments anymore.

My understanding that the passive loss will be suspended until the entire share of PTP is disposed. Now does he need to report the sale with capital loss or should he wait till all the shares are disposed. I am a bit confused.
And he was also given a Schedule to figure out the 4797 gain. The cumulative adjustment of basis is zero according to the schedule. Do I need to update the information from my tracking of the basis?
Thanks.
