Get your taxes done using TurboTax

When I used it today, the amount was correct. 

 

Is there another reason why the calculated value in line 16 does not match the tax tables?


 

The tax tables are often not directly used.  The most common reasons are if you had Qualified Dividends or Long-Term Capital Gains, but the checkboxes on line 16 also show other possible reasons.  Does that seem to apply?

 

Are you saying the amount changes without you changing anything else?  Or are you re-doing something and may have entered something differently (for example, forgetting to enter that some dividends were "qualified" or that some capital gains were long-term)?
