Would Pal rules apply to a SMLLC that holds a working interest in an Oil or Gas well? I thought Working Interests were not considered passive activities.

PAL is based on participation level. SMLLC member can be active & subject to SE tax.

Sec. 469(c)(3) spells out non-passive status.

I stand corrected

Since the working interest is held by a SMLLC, the liability is limited. As such, the activity is subject to the PAL rules.
