The entry space initially was shown, but once entered and edited, it no longer shows anywhere that I can edit that amount. I wand to take less than the full amount this year, and carry some to future years.

In 2024 we put a vehicle into service for my spouse's business.  It is used only over the summer for business purposes but in year one it was used so much it was over the 50% Sec 179 threshold so we took accelerated depreciation.   Fast forward to 2025 and unfortunately business use has dropped to 40%.  Even though I'm not selling the vehicle and we plan to continue to use it for business use through its depreciable life, the new tax laws under OBBBA require me to take 179 depreciation recapture on my 2025 return   I've read some things about needing to use form 4797 for sale of an asset even though I haven't sold the vehicle, but not sure if it is automatically calculating the recapture for me or if there is something missing.  Turbotax did acknowledge that there was recapture going on as there were a number of errors that popped in the federal error check.  It's not jumping out in my depreciation forms and if I do the math it's just taking the original cost of the vehicle * business use % * 20% for a 5 year useful life.  This takes care of ongoing depreciation, but not recapture.   Where am I supposed to go to take care of the recapture income?  I can easily do the math on what I would have taken on a 5 year straight line basis versus the accelerated depreciation I took in year 1?  Can always just drop that in as "other income"   (Don't worry - I'm already lowering my head in shame for being greedy and taking 179 in year 1 when there was no guarantee I could hold it).

I had posted about this previously under the heading of 1040 re self employed health insurance. I had some replies but unfortunately nothing that worked. I am an LLC - K1 partner and had insurance through the marketplace. My premium was input on my  K1  -  box 13  code M  as $8293. These premiums were computed correctly on all necessary forms except form 1040 schedule 1  line 17).  Line 17 shows $14,252. This is $5959.00 over! I then discovered something I wasn't aware of before when I was checking form 7206 – the Self Employed Health Insurance Deduction. It also has $8293 on line 14 as the allowed deduction. BUT at the very bottom of this form in very small print it says  "A self-employed health insurance adjustment of $5959.00 from premiums paid through an exchange is included as an adjustment to income but does not appear on these worksheets."    So this adjustment was added to my $8923. Of course I have no way of knowing how that happened since it’s not shown in  the worksheets. The IRS states about form 7206 - How to figure the deduction. Generally, you can use the worksheet in the Form 1040 instructions to figure your deduction. However, if any of the following apply, you must use Form 7206. • You had more than one source of income subject to self-employment tax. • You file Form 2555. • You are using amounts paid for qualified long-term care insurance to figure the deduction. None of these apply to me. I thought I would delete form 7206 and I tried. But the program doesn’t seem to allow you to do that. I really need some help please.
