Hi,
Please see the last line of my workaround comment:
I haven't been able to get it to work if I make the entries directly on the charitable donations forms. It doesn't carry over any changes from the forms to the 1040 unless I am in Step by Step.
Please explain why it won't work if I enter the charity contributions from the forms view. When I revise the charity on forms view the revision only changes Schedule A. It only changes the 1040 using Step by Step.
Additionally, when I save the return, close and then reopen TurboTax, it is not saving the $300 entered using Step by Step. Instead it reverts to the figures which I entered when I first started the return. Can you please try to recreate the problems I am having in your test system or please let me know if you want me to send you the return so you can work on these issues with the Turbotax Deluxe Windows desktop version.
I would appreciate not closing this case until someone can explain why revisions to charity entered on the Forms view are not carrying over to the 1040 line 10B and why revision entered on Step by Step are not kept on the return once I exit Turbotax.
One last thing. Maybe I am missing something, but it takes me a lot of time to find this case that I entered. Searching on the case number or my userid does not work. Is there a way to quickly get to this case?
Best
Ormtors
