I had a terrible time trying to follow the suggestions for Switch product, Clear & Start. I never could find the switches suggested for use. I went to the Turbo Tax Directory and simply deleted the current file. It worked perfectly when I rebooted Turbo Tax.

Under Article 17 of the U.S./U.K. tax treaty, pensions are taxable only in the "STATE" where the pensioner is a resident. Here "STATE" means the U.S. This raises the question as to how your U.K. sourced pension payments were subject to withholding. If there is some complication or some other provision in the treaty whereby your payments are taxable in the U.K., was this made known to you by the U.K. taxing authority?

 You are posting an old thread that has had no activity since 2020.   Not sure how you entered your SSA1099----it does not make a difference whether the SSA1099 is for disability or just regular Social Security benefits.  You enter it in the same place in the federal software.   Information flows from your federal return to the state return.  MO does not tax Social Security.   Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.       There are 9 states that tax Social Security—Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont  and West Virginia These states offer varying degrees of income exemptions, but two mirror the federal tax schedule: MN and VT.   @tncfrench

I am using TurboTax online, and reporting rental income for a house that is being put into service again, after it was taken out of service for a year after it was previously rented for a number of years. Depreciation was taken during the previous period of rental (and that was, of course, only depreciating the improvements part of the property).   In the TurboTax screens about the depreciation, they asked for the purchase price of the house, and the depreciation previously taken. It said my cost basis is (purchase price - depreciation previously taken). (So far so good.)   Then it asks about the land and improvement values. In this case, 80% of the value is land and 20% is improvement. Then it told me that the depreciable cost basis is 20% * (purchase price - depreciation previously taken).   This seems wrong to me, because this way only 20% of the previously taken depreciation is taken out of new depreciation cost basis. I think the correct depreciable cost basis should be (20% * purchase price) - depreciation previously taken. How do I get TurboTax to calculate it this way?
Great to hear, thank you so much @DaveF1006 !

I am having the worst experience with Full Service version of Turbo Tax. The chats and scheduled calls are mockery for Turbo Tax Experts. Experts are not joining the scheduled calls several times, and then re-assign. Also, very incompetent services - not able to respond to general queries on tax returns - not reading through the uploaded artifacts and missing details in filing which is causing a lot of loss. I would not recommend Turbo Tax to anyone rather pay little more and find a local tax filing agent. There is no respect of customer's time and experts are very mediocre.

@AmyC "The amount of room and board that is reasonable (according to the college) is deductible from the 529 withdrawal, just not the excess." on whose return can I deduct this amount - mine or my son? In my case the R&B was paid for the on campus dormitory so the money for R&B went straight to the school. The 529 is issued with my son's name.
