This is the exact same problem I reported in a post on Saturday, and another person reported it in this forum a couple weeks ago.   Hoping that with you reporting this same issue that someone from TurboTax will acknowledge that this MI-1040CR zip code programming bug exists and will get fixed (in TurboTax online).   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/2025-michigan-homestead-property-tax-credit-claim-mi-1040cr-form/00/3792163   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/on-2025-michigan-homestead-property-tax-cr[product key removed]tax-entered-7-3835-part-of-my-9-digit-zip/00/3777966   @thereseozi    

Line 11 on form 1040X is for the increase or decrease in taxes due because of the changes that you have made on your amended tax return.  Column B shows the amount of the increase or decrease.  When you look at the 1040-X line 11 will be right at the center of the form.  

The previous post on this thread states "An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed." What does this mean for me, when I have already e-filed and need to file an amendment (looks like a late-arriving W2 will cause me to owe nine more dollars).  

Yes, this is embedded in a Schedule C, which is a strange place to enter but here is the process to receive a deduction for your QBI. .   Go to the income section of your return and select Business income and Expenses. Go through the questions to enter a generic profile of a business even if you don't have one. For a business code, enter all nine's When it asks do any of these common business situations occur, leave this blank. Once your profile is complete, you will be brought to a place to enter income and expenses. press continue at the bottom without entering anything Say yes, this is qualified business income Next screen is labeled let's Cover Other Common Situations Thre should be a check box labeled This Business Received form 1099-PATR Check it and a drop down will appear. Here is where you make your Box 6 entry.          

You could go back into the Personal info section of TurboTax and only have your 5 digit zip code entered in instead of the 9 digit code.  If you get a recommendation to switch it to a recommended address by TurboTax, you could decline that.   I did try to replicate what you were seeing in a mock return in TurboTax desktop, but the MI 1040 and the MI 1040CR both displayed the 9 digit zip code.  If you don't want to try the suggestion of reducing the zip code to 5 digits, you could also try deleting your state return and starting over by following these instructions:   If you are using the Online version of TurboTax: Click Your State Returns under State Taxes on the left side menu. Click the trash can icon by the Edit button for the State that needs deletion. Click Delete on the pop-up asking if you want to delete this return. Then you can click Add Another State to get restarted on that return. If you are using the Desktop version of TurboTax: Click File in the upper left corner then Remove State Return. This will bring up a pop-up asking what state you want to remove. Click on the state in the menu and then click Remove. You can then go back to the State Taxes tab and pick out a state you want to work on.

Yes  I  Know  where  the  IRA  section  is  located on  the On- Line  Turbotax  Premium---BUT  do  they  On  Turbotax  ask  this  specific  Question  about  NOT  having  a  401K  or  other  Retirement Plan at your  workplace  and  thus  enabling  you  to  Deduct  the  full  Traditional  IRA  amount  for  the  year.?     Thanks.
