Retirement tax questions

You must be looking at older version of TT . TT 2024 premier has a differnt interview flow for 1116,  When I finish the INT and Dividends it does not let you enter a new category till you answer an AMT question. Then it does; i entered Canada as a country and it messed up the original foreign taxes paid RIC for dividends - it reduces those than before entering the RRSP income+tax paid for some reason.

 

BTW RRSP is an annuity and is passive income and so should be on the same 1116 form as INT and Dividends but I would have been okay to put it in the general category.

. Perhaps the way to do is to go to manual mode (ie form and not step-by-step)

 

Also in the wages and income part of the interview it has a special section for RRSP from Canada. This part of the interview does not ask about foreign taxes paid to canada as it should. I also went to the form where this is filled out and it does have an option to add foreign tax paid.

 

There is another bug wrt to RRSP for California (it has been reported and discussed in the TT Community). This bug is there since 2021. Here the interview asked about RRSP and then that part of the interview does not every comeback for you to make corrections. Intuit has not considered worthwhile to fix this reported but increased the price of TT Premier,

 

Intuit has screwed up
