Get your taxes done using TurboTax

To clarify a bit further, can you please share what version of TurboTax you are using -- one of the CD/downloaded versions or TurboTax Online?  Also, are you in Deluxe, Premier, etc.  

 

After examining the file you shared in more detail, I was unable to determine exactly where the yes or no answer is provided to question D of the Property Tax Information Smart Worksheet.  This question seemed to only be accessible using Forms Mode or during the error check process, but not during the step-by-step data entry of your information.  Did you perhaps access question D using one of those methods?

 

It is understandable that you want to submit the most accurate return possible without affecting the person who purchased your property.  However, there is a message that appears on the screen in TurboTax stating that the Homestead Rebate process has changed and data is no longer collected with your tax return for the Homestead Rebate Application.   For this reason, question D defaults to a 'yes' in every return so that the property details may be entered for you to claim the property tax deduction.  Leaving it as a 'yes' should not cause any issues and will resolve any errors you may encounter asking that property details be left blank.
