Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Make sure you are looking at the correct worksheet. If you look on the 1040/1040-SR Worksheet (Wks), you see your taxable income on Line 15. Right below that, you should see the Tax Smart Worksheet that shows what worksheet was used to calculate the amount on Line A. In my example below, there is an X on the Schedule D Tax Worksheet line, so I would need to look at that worksheet (Schedule D Tax) to see the details of the calculation.
An X on the first line (1-Tax table) implies no capital gains tax. In that case, your tax was found in the IRS tax table for your filing status and taxable income on Line 15. If you have any other lines with an X, the referenced worksheet or schedule will be included with your return. Which line item has the X on the Tax Smart Worksheet? @jcarpino09 - that is the worksheet you need to look at to see how your total tax was calculated. Example below.
