Really? That's the best you can do Intuit? Today is the 16th and the email signup still defaults to the 3903 Moving Expense form. Is SLOPPY and slow becoming the mantra at Intuit?

Whether or not you have to file a tax return isn’t just about how much income you earned. Sure, that’s part of it for most taxpayers, but the type of income also matters. For example in 2025, if your net earnings from self-employment are $400 or more, you need to file. If you’re a dependent and have unearned (investment) income of over $1,350, you probably need to file. Here’s one you might be surprised to know - if you work at a church, you might have to file even if your income was a little over $108. And even if you have a net loss on investment sales, they usually still need to be reported to the IRS. Yes, there are rules and filing requirements that we should all know. Check out the resources below to ensure you stay in the good graces of the IRS.

Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. It was very helpful and kept me from filling. I don't want to start off my business with losses. Thank you so much.

Auto loan interest payments on a personal vehicle, not used in a business, were not deductible in tax year 2024. And no you cannot carry those payments forward to tax year 2025.

HELP! I am a sole proprietor. I have a mobile dog grooming business. My clients are individuals so I do not receive 1099's. Fees are mostly paid via Venmo or Zelle (some pay in cash). I received over $13K in tips in 2025. According to the IRS Publication 69 (list of eligible industries/professions), I would be eligible for the deduction. However, in TT, under the 'Summary of tips', it says none of the tips qualify for the deduction because they were not reported on 1099's. In my research, I did not see anything saying income had to be REPORTED on a 1099 or W-2 to be eligible for the deduction. If this is the case, is would exclude a very large population of workers (independent hair stylists, massage therapists, nail salons, etc). Can this be correct or is there another way to input tip income in TT? Thank you!

Appreciate a target date posted in this string of posts, 1/21/26. Had the same issue with email notification, it triggered follow up for the wrong form 3903, which has nothing to do with pension distribution. perhaps Intuit can fix that at least now, so we receive notification for the correct update request.

An autistic child can qualify for tax benefits (like the Earned Income Tax Credit or dependent status beyond age limits) if a doctor confirms the condition is severe, long-lasting, or terminal, preventing them from substantial work. In that case check that the child is permanently disabled in the dependent section.

I did not claim this deduction for the previous tax year.
