austin3515 Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 OK, so I know the 5500 instrucitons say "don't reprot aything on Schedule A that is already reported on Schedule C as indirect compensation." But am I correct that if I'm doing an S-F, I should include on line 10e (payments made by insurance companies) the indirect expenses paid by the insurance company (in this case Great West?).

Belgarath Posted April 29, 2011 Posted April 29, 2011 I'd report the total of commissions and fees that the insurance company provides on the Schedule A, including the "non-monetary compensation." Since you aren't filing a Schedule A anyway with an SF, this makes sense, I think (insofar as anything to do with this garbage makes "sense") I'm always inclined to lean toward, "when in doubt, disclose." There's no harm in dislosing a little piece that you might technically not have to disclose.
