Get your taxes done using TurboTax

So I'd like to report another bug on Form 8801 that popped up for my 2022 return.  The Part III section wasn't filling out at all, even though I reported capital gain, resulting in a lower credit carryforward for 2023.  Eventually I moved from the online to the desktop version to try and manually update the field, and found that I could get the form to behave correctly by adding a '0' in the embedded worksheet for 2021 Form 2555 (as shown on line 2a here).

This isn't something you can do in the online version.  I figure the logic on line 11 wasn't operating correctly - those values from Form 2555 don't exist for me as I never filed that form, but TurboTax was looking for a value.

For my 2021 return I also had the bug reported elsewhere where line 28 wasn't populating.  I tried to refile that return with the fix in place with the 2021 TurboTax, and that had the same issue where Part III wasn't populating.  I ended up manually amending that return as I don't have the desktop version for 2021 (I had to sweet talk support to get the 2022 version so I could file my tax).

Hopefully this is helpful for someone, and hopefully that someone has the ability to fix the code for the rest of us 🙂
