It depends. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, student loan discharges due to Total and Permanent Disability (TPD)—including those for 100% P&T Veterans—are excluded from federal gross income.    If this is excluded from federal income, it is not included in the federal AGI. as a result, it isn't included in your NC return because North Carolina generally follows the federal definition of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). Even though it isn't specifically stated in the North Carolina return, it is reflected in the AGI amount in line 8 of your D-400 return.   Be sure this is excluded from federal income.

You can only deduct a business vehicle if you are self-employed or operating a licensed business. With limited exceptions, it is not deductible for salaried individuals in 2025.   You need to update/edit your business entries to enter the business vehicle. Look for the screen that says Your (name of business) Business. Under Business Expenses you will see the option for Business Vehicle Expense. Choose that option and you will see where you can set up your vehicle for depreciation and deduct associated expenses. 

This will happen if there's a discrepancy between the name and number on your Social Security card and your tax return.  I suggest you follow these steps: Log into TurboTax Click on Personal Info (you may have to press the arrow on the right) [Review/Edit] On the left sidebar select My Info Press the arrow to the right of your name Click [Revisit] Confirm your name matches the Social Security Card [Continue] Your address will be shown [Continue] Confirm your Social Security Number [Continue] Complete the interview to the end. If your name and Social Security number match your Social Security card, you will have to mail your tax return.  You will likely get an IRS tax notice requesting additional information to confirm your identity.  Just as a note: If you have filed a joint return for a number of years, and you switch your name on the return with the spouses, it may cause this error.  

Interest on the original and any subsequent refinancings of HELOC is only deductible if it was used to make substantial improvements to the residence. The property must secure it. If you refinance for more than the balance at that time, and interest on the previous HELOC was deductible, only interest on the portion refinanced is deductible unless the excess was used to substantially improve the property. In addition, there is a cap on how much debt can count as qualifying residential interest        so i think because of the refinancing rules, that's the question that must be answered. It's up to you to determine if it was used to substantially improve the property and the secured by property issue. if either or both are not true none of the interes is deductible and qualified residence intertest 

I just got the 2025 update and likewise found my completed tax form has disappeared.   I run file history to an external flash drive (PC Win11) regularly so the .tax2025 file was there.  I'll probably rename a copy to .tax2025bs before I open TT again.   Because this is total bs. 

First, you should select to convert the property to personal use on the date of death. This will use the correct depreciation for your mother's final return. When you see the question ' This item was sold……. '  select this checkbox, then do not enter a sale date, instead select that it was converted to personal use. This should complete the rental process on the final return.   If you are the only beneficiary, then your cost basis will be the fair market value (FMV) on the date of death or other stepped up basis provided by a lawyer. If you are going to continue to rent the property, it should begin with the new cost basis and start on August 1st (per your information) as though it was never rented in the past.   You can use the tax assessments from city or county to determine the percentage of land value versus building.   @user17760236673
