LLC partnership and per diem

Xsetra I see what you’re getting at, my problem is as an partnership LLC, My wife and I are the company and the employees, though not paid by W2 or 1099. Simply a pass thru to my personal taxes. Schedule C doesn’t work as that’s a sole proprietorship form.

An LLC reports earnings and expenses on a K1, so should I expense the per diem on the K1, or should my wife and I both expense it on a schedule E(1040) separately?

Or is there another way to do it?

 

BFA, I guess if you can go through this thread from my initial question, and not get utterly confused by most of the responses, you might be able to tell me the answer to my original question.
My tax attorney is still looking for a clear cut answer, but is leaning toward the schedule E unreimbursed partner expense for both my HOS per diem and my wife’s.

Thanks
