State tax filing

Thanks. I was not able to open any of your actual, sanitized returns, but the last one - 810067 - I could open.

 

The software is working fine in my copy of desktop Home & Business - Schedule A has the full $180,000 contribution, but on the Minnesota return form M1SA (line 18) is limited to $120,000. Note that the full $180,000 appears on line 15, however, the word "Limited" appears on line 18 along with the limited amount.

 

So we have to presume that your software has not been updated despite your attempts to do so.

 

We don't know if the problem is in the state software or in the federal software (i.e., how the federal software is offering the information to the state).

 

We do not have a way to update the state software manually, other than the Update process you have already done.

 

But we do have a manual software update process for the federal software. 

 

So please look at this TurboTax Help article and see if you can manually update the federal software. Also see this TurboTax Help article.

 

With luck, the problem may be in the federal software and this will fix it, or, when you do the update process next (Online->Check for Updates), TurboTax may notice that things have changed and download more federal and state fixes.

 

As you can see, we are trying to shake the software up so that it fixes it self. We know the fix is there - it's just a matter of shaking it up to trigger the correct update.

 

Let me know.
