Good afternoon Thursday 2/19. Updated TT Premier desktop today, revisited rental house depreciation -- and it seems to work as usual now. So without any announcement or fanfare, it seems to be updated, at least in that product.   Intuit is doing a TERRIBLE job on customer support, as if they actively don't care. This was all handled miserably badly, both in the software and in announcements in this forum. Worse, even logging into Intuit I could NOT find a path back to this thread, searching "form 4562" in various flavors didn't find it.  I could ONLY get back here by calling up a previous email telling me about yet another posting to the thread, in order to post this followup.

Yes, you seem to understand the idea behind the 529 Distributions and Education Credits.    Since your 1099-Q was used for both Room and Board as well as tuition and fees, you may want to wait for the update. 

Everyone replying back to this is wrong unless there are custodial battle. If you are not married or have never been married to this person and there are no custodial rights but you are taking care of the child full time There's nothing you can do. The only thing you can do is beat him to it first. The reason I know this is because my mother is a lawyer. I claim taxes every year for my child which the mother cares for We are not married never have been nor do we have any custodial battles. She's tried to fight me every year over it and I beat her to it my best friend is a tax guy. There's nothing You can do. Unless you have custody battle or custodial rights. I am living proof I've been doing this for the last 15 years.

they put us on the back end because the IRS allowed delayed tax returns if it includes 8915-F, so TurboTax took advantage of the situation and made us their last priority… yet other tax services have it available and already received their refund. 

AFTER your return has been full processed you will need to amend and change the way you answered the question in MY INFO that asked if you can be claimed as someone else's dependent.  You cannot amend yet.   Your parents do not have to wait for you to amend.    Waiting will not help that at all.   They can print, sign and mail their return that claims you, since mailed returns are not rejected.  It will take a lot longer for them to get their refund if they have to file by mail.   Or they can get an IP PIN to e-file:   GET IP pin in order to e-file if your dependent’s SSN was claimed on another return   https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-takes-steps-to-help-prevent-refund-delays-by-accepting-duplicate-dependent-returns-with-an-ip-pin-for-2025-filing-season-taxpayers-encouraged-to-sign-up-soon-for-ip-pin-online-account   https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin    

You will have to amend the 2025 tax return that you filed to change your dependency. The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/25/2026    An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return. Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS. See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a current year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-federal-tax-return-curr...   Your parent will have to print and mail their tax returns, including you as a dependent, because the IRS has already received a tax return with your Social Security number.  Amending your return will still not allow your parent to e-file their return.

I was told by the tax expert I got that it would be ready today, so I said what time? He said it should be sometime today so check back this evening. I call bull crap. Maybe it’s time we all go somewhere else.
