Deductions & credits
I'm using online, Google Chrome. I did not trade in the car. I narrowed down the issue.
The issue is hinging on me checking the box that I sold/disposed of the car in 2020. If I don't check that box, the glitch doesn't happen.
I track my miles and check the exact same boxes for the other car in exactly the same way. That's the only difference. I did lose the photo I took of my odometer at the beginning of the year, but that's only for the math. I guestimated where it was before my March oil change. Lyft/Uber keep track of the work miles.
I sold the vehicle 12/11/2020. Stopped using it for work 11/20/20.
I chose the standard deduction, just like the other car. And just like every other year I've done Uber (drove way more pre-pandemic in 2019). It initially gives me the $200 in the ticker, then takes it away when I hit continue.
The only change is checking the box that I stopped using the car in 2020. If I uncheck that, it keeps the deduction.
I wonder if I've gerry-rigged it now, because I went through and checked the proper boxes so it appears everything is there, but essentially skipped to a different section rather than hitting continue. So it never took the deduction away.
