@Bsch4477    I kept the QBI, but then before I file, TurboTax kept asking me to review the QBI numbers. Is that a technical glitch? I don't have a business so I don't understand why it calculated the QBI in the first place. Any advice? 

@MarilynG1 same situation.  I tried to complete the NY non-resident form on TurboTax and I did not see any questions regarding the rental property or the loss from it.  The income from federal transfered over but it shows up as zero and I also allocated zero to NYS as it is a loss.  Is there anything else that I'm supposed to do?  doesnt seem like that would be capturing the depreciation of the loss carryover either.  

@xmasbaby0    So you mean all the mortgage expenses (insurance, interests, etc) are all just itemized deductions?    I've heard that there are deductions or credits for mortgage points buy down and also moving expenses. Is that true?

Your response looked promising, but it may be out of date. I have both an "Annual Interest Paid" number and an "Accrued Interest Reported" number in Box 3 of my Form 1099-INT for the HH Bonds that were mature and cashed in this past year 2024. TurboTax will only accept one number for Box 3. I can enter the "Annual Interest Paid" number in Box 3, but I don't see any way to enter the second number. The only "uncommon" option is "My form has info in other boxes" and Box 3 is not available in that list. Where do I enter the "Accrued Interest Reported" number?

@SharonD007    Just want to be sure I'm doing this correctly. Do I need to provide receipts or some kind of proofs to show that I paid for all my parents expenses throughout the year? Or can I just make that determination based on the best of my knowledge and claim them as dependents? Are there any expenses that would not qualify?   Thanks.

I'm still confused on what category to use for the information in Box 14 of my W-2 (I'm in Colorado). And to add to this confusion, this year's Box 14 on my W-2 has two entries - one labeled FAMLI and a second row labeled CO PFML (both have the same value - which agrees with the amount listed on my last 2024 paycheck). Last year it had just one entry. On this year's, it almost appears to be duplicative. I have not requested or received any family leave payments (so no 1099-G). So - should I categorize the FAMLI entry as "Other deductible state or local tax" (i.e., its deductible) and the CO PFML as "Other (not classified)" (i.e., not deductible)?

Thank for the response.   That is what I did for years, but defaulted to the online the last two years, but the default is premium, for $209.   The downgrade option goes to basic.   The must not offer the Home and Business on line.      I can (& will) purchase and download the Home & Business for $95.   Hopefully my data will transfer in.
