Get your taxes done using TurboTax

One thing I noticed when virtually reviewing the actual 2019 tax forms is that neither PIN for the Primary or Spouse is filled in on the Forms 1040-SR. Also, in 2018, the Form did not have -SR after the 1040. 

I also noticed that on my state tax forms when I printed them, the “amount owed for 2019” was MISSING! The cover letter says what we owe but on the actual printed return, the line for “Amount Due” is left blank! I reviewed the whole printed state return and found a few other minor things missing things and the supporting Schedule B document was at the end of the whole return instead of behind the actual Schedule B .

 

ALSO, since it was better for us to file the federal return using the Standard Deduction, I did but I completed the itemized deduction section to the end. On our state return, itemizing was better for us than the standard deduction so TurboTax filled in the numbers but there is no list of all the non-profits to whom we donated using checks. In the past, TurboTax made us list each non-profit and the total amount to each. I know this because it was my job to make this list on Quicken software and transfer it manually to TurboTax. This year there is NO list so did TurboTax eliminate the need for it? Will my state expect to receive a copy of that list? What a 🤕 headache.

 

Lastly, why does TurboTax keep plugging in 1099-Int bonds that matured YEARS ago? At least 10 printed on my returns with zeros after them. If that doesn’t kick us out for scrutiny I will be surprised. 😢
