Hello,   Thank you for your response.     I should have been clearer with my question.     This is for an amended return as the 1099 misc was received late the income is reported in box 6; as soon as I complete for box six, the schedule c is forced.  No further information is asked (no option to "just say no") this income was for participation in a clinical trial, not self employment   best regards, patricia

If TurboTax has not correctly subtracted the enhanced senior deduction on your Form 1040-X, and you do not have the TurboTax Desktop program to override the value using Forms Mode, you can try to re-enter your information to trigger a recalculation.  Also, look at your Tax Summary by clicking on Tax Tools, then Tools in the left panel of your TurboTax screen and selecting View Tax Summary, to make sure it was not applied properly.   The Enhanced Senior  Deduction is a  nonrefundable tax deduction that reduces your taxable income but does not provide a refund for amounts that exceed your tax liability. If you have no tax liability as a result of your amended return, you would not get the credit.   Make sure your date of birth is correct in TurboTax. You are not eligible for the deduction if you filed married filing separate.   The deduction is phased out if your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) is over $75,000 if you filed as single or head of household and  $150,000 if married filing jointly.   You can amend a return in the TurboTax desktop software that was originally filed in TurboTax Online. But you would have to download the .tax file from your online account and load it into the desktop program.   Click here for How do I switch from TurboTax Online to TurboTax Desktop?

But then wouldn't we have an issue of the tuition reported on the 1098-T being eligible for American Opportunity Tax Credit?  The point is that we pay for Turbo Tax to do it correctly.   If I check an answer in the system the answer should be reflected correctly on the tax form.   You are sending us around the same hamster wheel as another 11 page thread about this issue.  "Just don't report it" is simply not good enough: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/college-education/discussion/why-doesn-t-turbotax-allow-me-to-enter-qualified-education-expenses-like-room-board-is-their-a/00/3746598

South Carolina requires the same state filing status as the Federal tax return.   If you and your husband file your Federal return Married Filing Jointly, you would file a joint SC return with a Schedule NR, but only report your husband's income on the SC return.   If you file Married Filing Separately on your federal return, then only your husband would file a SC return.   Your husband (or both of you if filing jointly) would be required to file either a part-year or resident South Carolina tax return.   Per the SC filing requirements linked here:   You are a South Carolina resident, even if you live outside South Carolina, when:   ​Your intention is to maintain South Carolina as your permanent home; AND South Carolina is the center of your financial, social, and family life; AND When you are away, South Carolina is the place to which you intend to return. You are a nonresident if your permanent home is outside South Carolina all year and none of the above apply.​   Nonresidents or part-year residents must file a South Carolina return if they work in South Carolina or receive income from a SC source.    

Here is the correct method to report this when the FEIN issue becomes an issue.   Delete the 1099-INT entry entirely using the "trash can" icon or go to your forms mode.  Look for the 1099 INT, select it, and then delete it at the bottom of your page once it appears.  Go to Wages & Income -> Less Common Income. Select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C. Choose Other reportable income (at the bottom). Enter a description like: "Foreign Bank Interest - [Bank Name]" and the USD amount. This still puts the income on your return correctly, but bypasses the Form 1099-INT data entry screen that's causing the FEIN validation error.

You will need to upgrade to TurboTax Premium Online in order to report income from Schedule K-1. This version also supports Form 8895 and Schedule E.   TurboTax Deluxe Desktop (local computer installation) supports all forms and schedules available for TurboTax.   For more info, see: Compare TurboTax Online Products TurboTax Desktop Products

No one in the user forum can resolve a billing issue.  If you have a question about your TurboTax fees or billing, make sure you use the word “billing” in your request for help.  Do not use the word “refund.”   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/contact-turbotax/L2y9ZKpQB_US_en_US?uid=m5s9l2vh
