There is a major bug in the TT desktop software, where 1099 income does not show up in the summary. It still apparently shows up on the 1040 generated by the software, which would be fine, except that this missing information is now leading the software to incorrectly state that we (couple filing jointly) cannot claim childcare credit because EIC is only evident for me, not my spouse (he has the 1099). This is costing us a big chunk of change in our refund.
Someone has claimed in a prior post on this bug that this bug has been corrected in an update, however, they do not provide a link to this update and when I check for a software update from with TT on my desktop, TT says that the app is up to date.
My 3 questions are:
1. can someone direct me to a link for this specific patch/update?
2. if none exists does anyone have a method for forcing the TT software to take the childcare credit?
3. if none of the above, does anyone know if this bug is present in the online version of the software?
Thanks
