For 2023 last year or this year’s AGI?   The AGI is on 1040 line 11.   You need your 2023 AGI to efile 2024. The AGI is on 2023 1040 or 1040SR line 11. If you filed a Joint return you use the same AGI for each spouse. How to find the AGI. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/how-do-i-find-last-year-s-agi/01/25947 If you didn't file 2023 or filed it later in the year or mailed it, then try entering 0 for the AGI.

No foreign taxes will be withheld.  The only taxes will be with the US. In plain English. When do I need to report those interests? All in 2025? Only the 12 month CD should be reported in 2025? The 18 month CD should be apportioned (2024 and 2025). Or even the 12 month CD should be apportioned because they overlap two fiscal years?  What is your opinion? @pk  Thank you for your help with this matter
Instructions for California State taxes say that information from 1095-B is required.

One reason, By increasing your deductions and expenses it will decease your income and you may not be getting as many credits as before like the EIC credit. You can't go by the refund monitor until you have entered everything in. Also after you reduce your income to zero there is no more refund to get back. But even though your taxable income goes down and you owe less income tax on it, you may owe for other things like self employment tax (if you have a Net Profit) or the 10% early withdrawal penalty from 401k or IRA accounts.   Be aware, if you have self employment income you can get in trouble for not reporting all your expenses to qualify for the EIC.

Medical Insurance Premiums are deductible net of any reimbursement for payment from the employer or third party.  Medical and dental expenses that exceed 7.5% of Adjusted Gross Income can be deducted if you itemize your deductions.     Can I deduct medical expenses - and where do I deduct them?
Where do I find my adjusted gross income ?

Hi,   Please help me with the following.   - I am studying medicine and currently doing 1st year of residency. - My residency started in July 2024 and earned about 25K as an employee of the hospital. - However for the period Jan to June 2024, I was a full time student and have no income while completing the final year of the medicine. - I am studying medicine almost fully with Federal loan and some minor amounts of schlorships. - For the period of Jan to June 2024, I paid about 30K towards school fee and received 1099-T. Here are my questions, kindly pl. clarify. 1) School fee is sure more than what I earned in the later half of the year through residency. I could pay school fee only because of loan though my income is nother sufficient, and nor did it start till July 2024 anyway. Can I claim the school fee ipertaining to Jan to Jun 2024 mentioned in 1099-T for any kind of deduction? 2) I started paying little bit of my residency income to start paying off student loan. My payments have both loan and interest components. Can I claim that interest in my return? Of course I will see if turbo tax premium recommends standard deduction. But pl. let me know.   Due to heavy work, I put off my taxes till now, and I am on a short leash. Pl. help asap.   regards   -

The  Life time Learning Credit (LLC) is non refundable, it cab only be used to offset a tax liability.  Otherwise,  If you are eligible, you have answered  something wrong, in the interview. But, a lot of people are just not eligible. I assume you are a grad and that is why you are not claiming the more generous AOTC.   See Also see this TT support article https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/college-and-education/what-are-education-tax-credits/L7TuLrVqZ https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-credits-deductions/education-tax-credits-available/L691dvlGB_US_en_US shorter https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/education-credits-questions-and-answers  https://www.irs.gov/individuals/llc
My 1099-B doesn't look like any other example of a 1099-B that I can find. It's a different format, but it indicates that it's a 1099-B
