Retirement tax questions
No, there's a problem still. Turbotax wasn't getting my Dependent Care Section (Form 2441) right and wasn't letting me enter any expenses. It kept asking me if I was disabled or a full time student and wouldn't let me enter daycare expenses or take the credit. However, I started this section BEFORE I entered my spouse's W-2. But after I entered my spouse's W-2 it STILL wouldn't let me enter my daycare expenses.
I think if the Dependent Care Section (Form 2441) is started BEFORE both W-2s are filled out, it may not let you enter the dependent care expenses and says you aren't eligible for the credit because it may not think one of the spouses are working? When i entered the second W-2, deleted my initial 2441 form (see below), and re-went through it again it finally asked me for my dependent care expenses and worked fine. I think turbotax may have glitch in that form 2441 doesn't self-correct once the second W2 is added. Turbotax, please check this issue CAREFULLY as I think there's a bug here.
