To delete your Retirement Savings Contribution Credit in TurboTax Online, you’ll need to perform some trickery.
To qualify for the credit, you have to meet all four of these requirements:
- You are not a full-time student
- Age 18 or older
- No one else claims you as a dependent on their 2021 tax return
- Your adjusted gross income (AGI) does not exceed:
- $66,000 if married filing jointly
- $49,500 if head of household
- $33,000 if single, married filing separately, or a qualified widow(er)
So, to suppress the credit:
- Select My Info in the left pane and begin the interview
- On the Personal info summary page, select Edit to the right of your (or your spouse’s) name
- On the Were you a full-time student in 2021? screen, select the Yes checkbox
If you encounter any education-related questions laterr in the interview that don’t apply to you, simply skip past the questions.
Don’t worry – the IRS doesn’t see the question about whether you were a full-time student.
