Get your taxes done using TurboTax

On MA return Form 1 Turbo Tax erroneously places W-2 income on line 9A (other income) rather than line 3. This causes the W-2 income to be counted twice and tax owed to increase. MA told me to file an amended return (completed manually) to correct this. 

 

Tracing the MA Turbo Tax entry back to the Federal return I found this: On Federal return 2022 Form 1040 Turbo Tax erroneously places W-2 income on line 8 rather than line 1a. It does not effect total income or taxes but will cause your return to be bounced.

 

You have to manually force the program (using the forms feature) to place the W-2 income correctly.
