Deductions & credits

@hristoterezov , while I have not tried that but absent any program logic restriction, I see no reason for  the scheme to work.  I am assuming that you are going to be using the forms mode anyways.  Just try it out and see if this works  and if it passes all the checks  required for e-file.

 I don't know of any other way to force a Schedule-B inclusion.

I do not believe  that IRS actually goes back to check the progression of the schedule-B contents from year to year -- it is more for your own records to justify if challenged.  Obviously if you do have the  Schedule-B on your records, it cannot hurt.

Good luck
