Unfortunately not.  The 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid doesn't qualify for the federal Clean Vehicle Tax Credit. It's a standard hybrid, not a plug-in hybrid, and  Doesn't meet the strict North American assembly and battery component requirements.

Some customers are experiencing issues when trying to file but are looped back instead of being able to proceed and file.     We are currently investigating this issue.    We'll notify you once the program is updated.

The message I got was: "Error code: TY25_AR_Age_65, details are not available. Reject Code TY25_AR_Age_65" I selected "Fix It" and refiled, but I feel sure it will be rejected again. I guess the "Fix It" button doesn't work any better than anything else provided to us Arkansans this year.  If it is rejected again, I may have to resort to a manual return also. I will be reporting this to the State of Arkansas. I believe that TurboTax should give us all refunds. Thanks so much to all customers who communicated back with me on this. It helps to have that validation, especially when we are getting no help at all from TurboTax.

The New York "inflation refund" is taxed at the Federal level but is not taxable on your New York return.    Since this is not a typical 1099-G item for a refund of taxes paid, you can choose to enter it instead in the Other Taxable Income section of TurboTax with an explanation.   From the left menu, go to Federal and select the first tab, Wages & Income Add more income by scrolling down to the last option, Less Common Income, and Show more Scroll down to the last option, Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C and Start Choose the last option, Other reportable income and Start and Yes Enter the applicable description and amount and Continue   If you need to subtract an item of income from your New York return that was included in your Federal return income, you can enter that adjustment in TurboTax Online at the screen in your New York return labeled "Changes to Federal Income".    Look under Other New York Adjustments to Federal Income, and select Start next to Other changes (adjustments) to your federal income to make the subtraction entry.  

You are looking at the wrong MAGI definition, probably the one for determining Premium Tax Credits under the Affordable Care Act.  The calculation of MAGI for the purpose of a Roth IRA contribution is described in IRS Pub 590-A: https://www.irs.gov/publications/p590a#en_US_2025_publink1000230985

No, it shouldn’t hold up your refund. The 1098-T is an informational form, and you aren’t required to enter information from it unless you’re claiming education credits. If you are claiming a credit, you must report the tuition, fees, and scholarships received.

If the Timeshare qualifies, it would be considered a "Second Home".   The property must be deeded, and the mortgage must be secured by the property (have a lien on it by the Lender).  If you already have a primary home and a second home, the Timeshare would be "other" and the interest would not be deductible.
