The same Form 4562 also applies to rental depreciation on a business filling. The issue with the schedule is is the 4562 because everything else on the schedule E was ready for people to file on the personal side.

It could be because of several reasons.    You haven't "Linked" the Income to the Credit Entering the foreign tax in the 1099-DIV section is just the first step. TurboTax will ask you to finish the Foreign Tax Credit interview to confirm you qualify.   Go to Deductions & Credits > Estimates and Other Taxes Paid > Foreign Taxes. When asked, select Take a Credit (not the Deduction). You must follow the prompts until you reach a screen that asks you to select the "Country." Even for mutual funds, you usually select "Various" or "RIC" (Regulated Investment Company). If you don't complete this separate section, the amount you entered on your 1099 will sit in "limbo" and won't flow to your Form 1040.   Your Tax Liability is Zero (or too low) The Foreign Tax Credit is a non-refundable credit. This means it can only reduce the tax you owe to $0; it cannot give you "extra" money back.  Look at Form 1040, Line 18. If that number is $0 (perhaps because your standard deduction and other credits already wiped out your tax), the Foreign Tax Credit will be $0. TurboTax will automatically turn that "unused" credit into a carryover for next year. You haven't lost the money; you just can't use it this year. The "Passive Income" Category  For foreign investments, the IRS requires you to categorize the income. In the Foreign Tax interview, ensure you select "Passive Income" for dividends and interest. If you accidentally select "General Category" or "Section 951A," and you don't have matching foreign wages or specific business income, the credit will be calculated as $0 because the "categories" don't match

IRS said that not the address on file   It is not clear what your question is.   In TurboTax Online, your mailing address may be updated and corrected under My Info down the left side of the screen.   To update or correct your mailing address within your Intuit account, select Tax Home in the upper left hand corner of the screen.  Click the down arrow to the right of My account.  Update the address under Profile.   If this does not answer your question, please post again.

I do believe they were very simply giving an update; yknow, like how the original poster of this thread was asking for other’s input. not for common knowledge and **bleep** you can find on a Q&A page. 

It depends.  You would need to look at the date of his withdrawal.  If on the date of his withdrawal, if he was considered to be enrolled at least half time on at least May 1st, then he would meet the requirement for 5 months. If he was officially unenrolled prior to May 1st, then the would not be considered a student for the month of May and would not meet the 5 month rule. 

I have TurboTax Premier Desktop and it does not have the capability yet for me to enter the depreciation on my rental house.  It tells me to wait and that that form will be coming in February.  It is February 16, I have updated the application and it still is not available.  This is not complicated, and I have checked with other sources and know that nothing has changed that will affect this in my situation.  When can I get this information so that I can finish my taxes?  It has a real impact on the bottom line.

Still not working and you posted two weeks ago.  Turbo tax needs to get this fixed.  I can't file taxes without it.  I talked to an agent on Saturday and he had no clue about this issue.  They should have this flagged and get it fixed.

@marytony Not sure what the question is.   You are seeing on the IRS site that your refund is approved and that the IRS will issue it on a specified date several days from now---on 2-19.   They also tell you to allow up to five days for the refund to post to your account.   What "changes" are you expecting to see?  Where are you expecting to see a change?   If you mean on your TT account, that is never going to change from "accepted"-- once you file your tax return, TurboTax gets no updates from the IRS.   Your account will only show that your e-file was accepted; TT never knows if or when you got your refund.
