Our son is attending college but we still claim him as a dependent. I understand that we can claim the credit and I have his 1098-T. Turbo Tax asks for tuition expenses from box 1 and scholarship amounts from box 5, but what if our son took out a student loan to cover some of the tuition expenses and our (me and spouse) was less than the difference between the tuition and scholarship amounts?

In prior TurboTax Deluxe Desktop versions there was a clear option to enter sales without a 1099‑B. I’m trying to report a worthless SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) investment for 2025, but I can’t find that option in the current version. Since this was a direct investment with the company (no broker or bank, no 1099‑B issued), what is the correct way to enter it in TurboTax Deluxe Desktop 2025? Should I type the company name at the “Which bank or brokerage” screen and mark it as worthless, or is there another workflow for reporting direct investments without a 1099‑B? I’ve already spent a lot of time trying to locate the right step and would really appreciate some guidance.

Hello, I had a total capital loss of -$7,310 this year, as per my 1099-B. When I enter this information into turbotax online, it appears to be calculating correctly, giving me a 3,000 loss and pushing the rest down into the next coming years. HOWEVER, when I begin the federal review step, the CompleteCheck review seemingly recalculates this from a $3,000 loss into a capital gain of $4,529, increasing my anticipated federal/state taxes by about $5,000. I have no other 1099-Bs which could influence this figure, and all of my other income appears to be calculating as expected. Has anyone been experiencing this, or have any idea what is going on?

My tax expert completely missed my appointment. I wasn't sent a message, offered to reschedule or addressed in any way. There is no immediate way to reach out to support. I have been on hold with the contact line for over an hour at 8PM. The lack of support and availability on top of just outright missing a scheduled appointment with no communications is pretty ridiculous. I don't have an option to edit/reschedule the appointment either. What am I supposed to do?

Thanks MaryK So, even though he was working in East Lansing (while he lived there during the school year), the answer still will be that there is no Michigan source income (due to the reciprocity)? Just want to confirm since he truly was earning it while living in East Lansing for school.
