When you go through the PA nonresident return, it asks about every single type of income, who it belonged to and if it is taxable in PA.  When the program asked about gains and losses, you need to  mark either not taxable or a portion was taxable. Please return to the PA program and actually go through it and answer the questions.

Hi - I saw amortization and deprecation 'go live' on my online turbotax version (in CA) on Thursday, Feb. 19th...and I was able to complete those sections.  If you are still not live, I would 1. clear your cache in your browser  2. call turbotax customer service and do a screen share with them.  good luck

For Column A, you would enter the amount of the premium you paid each month. Enter zero if you were reimbursed for the full amount of the premium.   On the 1095-A, column B is the Monthly Premium Amount of Second Lowest Cost Silver Plan (SLCSP). If your 1095-A has a 0 or if it's blank, use this Healthcare.gov tool to calculate the value you will need to enter there. Column C reflects the Premium Tax Credit you received throughout the year.   See this TurboTax help article for more information.   @user17714393469   

Yes, if the amount is in Box 14 -use the Other/Not Classified category.   On the next screen (uncommon situations), you will check the box that says Religious Employment.  Full instructions for entering this type of income are linked below.     How do I enter a parsonage or housing allowance reported on a W-2?

Hello,   I am following up on this subject regarding Yonkers NY local income taxes and Turbo tax desktop 2025.   My wife had Yonkers taxes withheld by employer by mistake. The amount of Yonkers taxes withheld and was reported on her W-2.    Should I delete the form Y-203 SP?   Thank you. Frank  

You enter the Form 1099-R in the Wages and Income section, then Retirement Plans and Social Security, then IRA, 401-K, Pension Plan withdrawals (1099-R). The main thing to look out for is entering code 6 in box 7 to indicate the distribution is a Section 1035 exchange.

Please clarify your question by adding some  additional information so we may better help you. Such as; What version of TurboTax are you using? What is your question regarding the WI Retirement Subtraction?. What TurboTax screen are you on? Did you get a Form 1099-R? Did you get an error message?

It depends.    Medical expenses include the premiums you pay for insurance that covers the expenses of medical care and the amounts you pay for transportation to get medical care. Medical expenses also include amounts paid for qualified long-term care services and limited amounts paid for any qualified long-term care insurance contract. See IRS Publication 502 for more information.   A qualified long-term care insurance contract is an insurance contract that provides only coverage of qualified long-term care services. The contract must:   Be guaranteed renewable; Not provide for a cash surrender value or other money that can be paid, assigned, pledged, or borrowed; Provide that refunds, other than refunds on the death of the insured or complete surrender or cancellation of the contract, and dividends under the contract must be used only to reduce future premiums or increase future benefits; and Generally not pay or reimburse expenses incurred for services or items that would be reimbursed under Medicare, except where Medicare is a secondary payer, or the contract makes per diem or other periodic payments without regard to expenses.   You can’t deduct payments for a qualified long-term care insurance contract for any month in which you were eligible to participate in a long-term care insurance plan subsidized by your employer or your spouse’s employer.   You can't deduct long-term care insurance if you elected to pay these premiums with tax-free distributions from a retirement plan and these distributions would otherwise have been included in income.   If the cost of the LTC rider is deducted from the cash value of the life insurance policy you cannot deduct the premiums as a medical expense.     If you have a whole life insurance policy, you can take the position that the cost of the LTC rider is eligible for a deduction as a medical expense, if the LTC rider charges on whole life policies are taken before premium dollars are placed in the cash value account.    Life insurance premiums are not deductible, so the deduction should be for only the costs of the LTC rider and only if paid directly and not taken from the cash value of the life insurance.
