Deductions & credits

 Couple a questions - What state return(s) are you filing?  What is your filing status and what amount is on 12b of Form 1040?     

 

If you have charitable donations entered into that section that are over allowable amount with standard deduction ($300 or $600) - it will cause confusion until you confirm your deduction option (standard or itemized) and answer the CARES ACT CASH DONATIONS questions.   These questions will show up after you finish the Deductions and Credits section, but before the Federal Review.   If you go through this part, you should not get the error in the review.   To get back there:  

 

  1. Click on Personal Income at the top of the desktop software.   
  2. Then choose Deductions and Credits.   
  3. Pick I'll Choose What I Work On.
  4. Scroll all the way down and click on Done with Deductions.
