Where to find the math details behind Form 1040, Line 1a? Is there a worksheet?
Hello,
My 1040 Line 1a has been adjusted. It is not just the total of our W2, Box 1 (MFJ). This is correct because I have an amount shown in W2, Box 11, and it must be subtracted from Line 1a, but included on 1040, Schedule 1, Line 8t.
Where in TurboTax can I see the math and details behind the amount calculated for Line 1a. I have followed the links into the various worksheets, but I can not find where the subtractions (or additions for some people) are shown. I am specifically interested to see where the Box 11 value is subtracted.
To be clear... I believe that TT is doing the right thing, but I can not see where the calc/math is being done. This is important when explaining to others why their results are what they are. I help a number of retired persons with their taxes, and they use TT.
Thanks,
