@DaveF1006    Hi there,   Thanks for your latest reply!  I'm afraid though you missed the entire point of my latest question.   I am well aware of the capital loss carry forward benefits.  I am well aware of that an inherited house is a long term asset.  I am also now aware of 901(m), thanks to you.  My question had nothing to do with these.      In my last post, ignoring all the previous questions (starting from clean slate!), I am only asking if I can claim foreign income tax credit for the foreign income taxes paid on the sale of the inherited house in the foreign country.   In a previous reply, you had indicated the way to do this will be the following:   "As you navigate through the foreign tax credit section, your dividend and interest information is already reported. You need to report the sale of the house and report the gross amount of the proceeds..   Go to Deductions & Credits  Estimates and Other Taxes Paid > Foreign Tax Credit. Follow the prompts  It will first ask you to report the income for the dividends and interest. In this case, you just need to check a box next to the dividends and interest to record the income. After this is done.  There should be two country summary screens. When you get to country summary screen, select edit next to the country XX that reported the interest.  Here it will ask you to report other Gross income XXX.  You will report the Gross proceeds from the sale. Don't enter anything for expenses. Continue through the screen until it asks you to enter foreign taxes. Here you will enter foreign taxes on other income. Finish out the interview screen until you are done." I am only double checking if this is correct.  For some reason, I had in my mind to add expenses of $50 and losses of $100K in the interview screens after step 7 above, which clearly you state is unnecessary.     I know you must be very busy answering questions with your expert knowledge so it's easy to lose track!  Please read this message and the last post carefully when you get a chance, as I think you are very close to resolving my question!     I really do thank you once again!   Please let me know if you have any questions about my question.

It is only filed by the noncustodial parent with their tax return (or mailed with Form 8453 after e-filing their tax return). The custodial parent is the only one that has to complete and sign Form 8332. This releases the claim exemption. The custodial parent does not attach it to their own return but should keep a copy of it with their tax return  for proof of the release.    Click here for Form 8453.   Click here for About Form 8453, U.S. Individual Income Tax Transmittal for an IRS e-file Return.   Click here for Form 8332.   Click here for About Form 8332, Release/Revocation of Release of Claim to Exemption for Child by Custodial Parent.   Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.  

We are unable to reproduce the experience you have seen. It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file that is experiencing this issue.   You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information.  If you would like to do this, please follow these instructions:    In TurboTax Online, open your return, go to the black panel on the left side of your program and select Tax Tools.  Then select Tools below Tax Tools. A window will pop up which says Tools Center. On this screen, select Share my file with Agent. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number. You may wish to snap a screenshot to post instead of the actual number. Reply to this thread with your Token number (including the dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important. If you are using TurboTax for Desktop, go to Online in the top menu, then choose "Send Tax File to Agent."   We will then be able to see the same experience you are having. If we are able to determine the cause, we'll reply here and possibly provide you with a resolution. 

In your earlier post you stated that "It shows was received by the IRS."    but now you are contradicting that by saying that the IRS says your information does not match.  Which is it?   When you use your filing status, your SSN and line 35a of your Form 1040 on the IRS site, does it show anything?

Did you report that you rented the property during the year? Have you checked your business use percentage for the rental property? Either of those factors may change the amount of mortgage interest that is allocated to the rental property.

Unfortunately, the HSA last-month rule calculation issue has not yet been resolved. As of February 18, 2026, I am experiencing the same errors reported by the original poster while using TurboTax Premier Desktop. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance. Thank you.

If CoinTracker includes your Robinhood crypto transactions, you shouldn't enter the Robinhood 1099-B separately. This would result in reporting the same sales twice. However, if the 1099-B includes stock trades or crypto transactions that aren't included in CoinTracker, those must still be reported. Each taxable sale should be reported once to avoid IRS matching issues.

I never received an email from TurboTax indicating my return was ACCEPTED by the IRS as when my spouse filed his he received a notification from the TurboTax that his return was accepted by the IRS. My only shows pending for federal and state on the TurboTax website. When checking with the irs I keep getting a message that my information does not match their records. Yet I put my correct information in. According to TurboTax it hasn’t been accepted by the irs yet and is still pending processing. Since my spouse and I would normally file married and jointly. We opted out this year and did married and filing separately. Both returns are marked that as well.
