Deductions & credits

Sorry, but I don't agree with AnnetteB6 on a couple of points:

1. Although the IRS instructions for Form 8936 do not "specifically address line 5", on line 5, the form itself states:

    "Enter your 2023 filing status (S, MFS, etc., see chart below)."

The numerical entries provided by Turbotax have no correlation with the entries on the form, so they are not correct.

2. I have spent substantial time trying to figure out what to do with these entries (can they be edited manually, do I need to submit paper forms instead of filing online, etc.). Therefore, I strongly disagree with your statement that "..there is nothing for TurboTax to fix."
