Doc2465, here are the answers:
1. Line 70 on Schedule 5 is BLANK. I remember TT saying "It looks like you have to pay back some of the credit" and showing the full PTC $18,022 during interview process.
2. Line 29 is $14,189 and Line 12 is $52,038.
3. I don't know where is MAGI, but it must be the sum of my AGI $79,849 and Tax Exempt Interest $5,351 which is $85,200. It is over the cliff by $3,520. It is ironic! Last tax year (2017) I had $4,000 tuition deduction. If they didn't eliminated that deduction I would have been under the cliff by $480 this year and save $18,022. Thank you Uncle Sam. It is sad.
Is it possible to have partial PTC pay back depending on some relationship between line 29 and PTCs? I always thought I have to pay back the whole thing or nothing depending on if I am over the cliff or not (even by $1). Am I wrong? By the way, your premium is $25,000. Is it because you have a better plan like a Silver one? Thank you so much.
