Form 1095-B isn't entered on your federal tax return. Refer to the TurboTax Help article Do I need to enter my 1095-B and 1095-C?
You can deduct the amount of property taxes that you paid on your personal or second residence. To take this deduction, you must itemize your deductions instead of taking the Standard Deduction. For more information refer to the TurboTax Help articles Claiming Property Taxes on Your Tax Return.
Review the following TurboTax articles to determine if there are additional items that you can deduct on your Schedule A. 20 Common Tax Deductions: Examples for Your Next Tax Return, What Are Itemized Tax Deductions?, and Standard Deduction vs. Itemized Deductions: Which Is Better?
Refer to the TurboTax article Where do I enter my real estate (property) taxes in TurboTax? for navigation instructions to enter your property taxes.

Oh--and let's review----you are the one who went ahead and filed a separate return, thereby precluding the filing of a timely joint return.....but you are concerned that "she" might get hit with a penalty? Not how it works Mr. Husband.....the penalty would be shared and would really be your fault. But....if there is a refund on the joint return, there is no penalty.

What did you get a 1099R for? After you enter the 1099R you need to enter how much was the RMD. All retirement accounts have an RMD. If you get a pension, Say all of it is the RMD. If you need to take the RMD it will ask you if it is the RMD. Say yes. Anything your pension pays you is considered to be the RMD. Traditional pensions automatically fulfill the rules of an RMD. So for the RMD question put in the same amount as box 1.

Hurricane Beryl (July 2024) damaged my newly purchased rental home roof. House was bought just a week earlier. So I know exactly the FMV before the hurricane. Let's call it $400K. Roof repair estimate was $15,000. Since my agent was still helping me find tenants, she said the AFTER FMV would be $400K-$15K = $385K since any buyer at this point would want to new roof. Simple right? Because I had spent all my cash on the purchase, I decided to just do the minimum fix of the roof for $1K to stop the water leaks. In other words I spent $1K on the temporary repair. Per my agent, no buyer would've paid me more then $385K since the roof was still damaged (shingles blown away, but not leaking). Question: On Form 4684, Section B, is it safe to take $15K deduction based on $385K FMV post the disaster? OR Do I take $1K deduction because that's what I actually spent on the repair? Note: No insurance, no reimbursement or anything coming. Pure rental property, nothing to do with any personal property or MAGI. Did not do appraisal after the hurricane.

My problem was resolved when my 1099 showed taxable amount undetermined. The amount overdrawn was put back into my retirement account, the tax was paid, but I got it back when I filed. Once you enter your 1099 it into Turbo tax, the program will lead you through the process by asking you questions which are easy to answer and the form that you must fill out is there also. One question you are asked is, did you ask for a corrected 1099. I answered yes, however my broker does not do corrected copies. Be sure you know your correct RMD and amount taken and the correct amount of taxes due and paid. I filed and the IRS accepted it.

Delete this 1099-INT. When it rounds down to $0, you do not need to report it.

No. Not figured out. Both Dmertz and Volvo who try to answer keep on insisting that it is due to "low income". I am not going to state my income on this community board, but that is definitely NOT the case. They were not able to answer or explain. Nor to give an example of how much income they actually think is "small". I can say that I made more income this year than in previous years and never have I had TT register the contribution as having no impact to my tax liability. No one can explain it nor provide an example

Enter your 1099-R exactly as it appears with the amount of distribution, the code in box 7 and the amount withheld. TurboTax will calculate your refund and you can file.

Generally, a RMD is calculated for each account by dividing the prior December 31 balance of that IRA or retirement plan account by a life expectancy factor that the IRS publishes in Tables in Publication 590-B, Distributions from Individual Retirement Arrangements (IRAs).
There are a plethora of websites that have online RMD calculators you can use to calculate your RMD. This list includes Charles Schwab, Fidelity, E*Trade, New York Life, Investor.gov
