I put in the alimony amount and it still shows "0" the program does not add it to the return. What is the work around? Or can someone call me [phone number removed] to figure what is wrong. Thanks, [name removed] [email address removed]

for federal purposes, alimony is neither taxable nor deductible if the divorce or separation agreement was executed after 2018 or if a pre-2018 agreement is modified after that date to expressly provide that the post-2018 rules are to apply

If your divorce or separation agreement was finalized by 12/31/2018, your alimony payments are not included in your income.
