I owe a payment for my taxes this year. I set up the withdrawal within TurboTax to come out next week. However, I received the money early and directly paid through the IRS’s website so I could get it handled as soon as possible. When the withdraw date comes around, will TurboTax deduct another payment or should I be okay since I paid the IRS the full amount? I checked my TurboTax account and there is no way for me to modify this withdrawal.

Be sure to check the box in the Property Profile section to indicate that you converted the rental property to personal use.   Your rental use days would be 120, but your personal use days would be 0 since it was converted to all personal use immediately after the rental period ended.   Yes, you would prorate the expenses to cover only the period of time the property was a rental.  Your example is correct.  However, there are certain cases where TurboTax will do the math for you to prorate rental expenses.  Pay attention to the messages onscreen and examine your Schedule E when you are finished to be sure the numbers are accurate for your situation.

Wages & Income: W-2 error in block 14 code K should be: “K - Pretax Vision and Dental Deduction” according to the Employee W-2 form. And NOT: “K – 20% excise tax – golden parachute” which in the 2022 Turbo tax program. Still the same in 2023. In fact, for Box 14, Codes K, V, and Y were all interpreted incorrectly by TurboTax. Not only were they coded incorrectly, but if we hadn't caught the errors, we would have paid both federal and state income taxes instead of receiving refunds. Let the buyer beware.

It depends on what the settlement was for.   If it was for your vehicle damage, then it is not taxable income unless it resulted in a gain.  Meaning, if you ended off getting more from your car than you paid for it, then the gain would be taxable.  If the payment was because your car was totaled and that was the value the insurance company determined it was worth and you had more than that into it, then it would not be deductible.   If it was for lost wages, you would enter them as other reportable income by selecting the following: Federal Income and Expenses Scroll down to Less Common Income and click Show More Start next to Miscellaneous Income Start next to Other Reportable Income

Yes, you can use TurboTax to report that you made a Qualified Charitable Distribution.   You enter the Form 1099-R that is reporting the distribution which was the Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).  As long as the requirements for QCD have been met, you will see follow-up questions to answer in order to indicate that it was a QCD.   See the following TurboTax help article for more information:   What is a Qualified Charitable Distribution?
Thanks again for the quick response. This extension would extend the current visa period, but I am not sure I understand how it affects the exemption ending in 2023.

Can (and how/where) you claim temporary housing payments you made to live while your house was unlivable due to a natural disaster. Yes it was federally declared and I have the fema number. I only see where you can claim property loss not covered by insurance. How do you claim having to pay rent when it was not covered by fema or insurance? We do not pay rent in our home, we own it outright so a remtal expense is above our normal living expenses. Thank you
