Turbotax not handling elementary and secondary required enrollment fees
I've encountered an issue with the desktop version of Turbotax. On the screen to enter the various allowed expenses for elementary and secondary education, I entered a value for tuition, required enrollment fees, books, and academic tutoring. In a later display after entering the 1098-T information for a couple of dual-credit classes, it prompts for Books and Materials to Attend School. It shows a non-changeable entry for Tuition and enrollment fees. This value is supposed to be the sum of the elementary and secondary education Tuition and Required Enrollment Fees plus the tuition for the two dual-credit classes. I found that Turbotax does not include the Required Enrollment Fees in that sum. Note: There is no 1098-T form for the elementary and secondary educational fees. I opened a case, [social security number removed], with Turbotax support and got back a response that did not correspond the issue. When I tried to respond, I found that the case had been closed. The only way I found around this software bug is to add the Required Enrollment Fees to the Tuition fee in the elementary and secondary educational form. Has anyone found a fix for this issue? Is Intuit going to fix the software? Any thoughts?
