1 isn't correct. You're also mistaken on the passive> the disallowed loss is either by disposal of business or > husband materially participates in business? activity rules, as both spouses are material as long as one is. -- David M.

So you're saying on the basis of stock ownership, the husband is allowed no share of the loss?
