I have found a software bug in 2025 TT Premier desktop for Mac. The bug is associated with prizes and awards.
The filing status for my return is Married Filing Joint. This has been entered correctly and shows correctly on Form 1040.
My wife won $250 at a local art fair. I entered this amount in the income section of TT. She did not receive any tax form with the check. I entered this amount in the prize section (not from gambling) for my wife. This amount shows correctly on Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 8i.
When I run the TT review, it says there is an error. TT thinks I entered a gambling winning and thinks I did not file married jointly. When I open the Other Income form, the $250 shows as gambling income.
there is an obvious bug that needs to be fixed.
