Your reply was actually quite helpful you seem very knowledgeable, however once I read all the legalese jargon and took a moment to process it i can say without any doubt that I input my information properly, is it at all possible that they just have a really glitchy website it freezes up on me all the time,
but at the end of the day what you're really telling me is that I can't do jack about it unless I pay money and upgrade to the desktop site is that right?
You can use the special itemized deduction on any version of Turbotax. But not all people will benefit from the itemized deduction depending on their other deductions.
To use the credit method, you must make a manual entry using the desktop program.
Unless you qualify for free filing, the cost of the desktop program is comparable to the online program, especially if you buy the download from a discount retailer rather than direct from Intuit (like Best Buy, Staples, or Amazon). You want the Deluxe (Federal plus one free state) program. You just pay up front instead of at the end.
