Thank you for the explanation! That was the issue as the value you indicated had replaced the standard deduction. I now realize that my son no longer fits the criteria as a dependent, so the fix is an easy one!

I am in Wisconsin also, and I interpreted this to mean that the discount (accrued market discount) is indeed taxable. In fact, it says it has NO EFFECT on the tax-exempt income. If one did exclude it from Wisconsin taxes, then presumably the amount of tax exempt income would go up.

Yes, if you are referring to the terms "Qual OT" or "Qualified Overtime Compensation" it is referring to overtime for the new tax deduction available in TurboTax for the 2025–2028 tax years.    It is part of the "No Tax on Overtime" provision, which allows eligible workers to deduct up to $12,500 of premium overtime pay ($25,000 for married joint filers) from their federal taxable income.      Click here for No Tax on Overtime Explained: Qualified Overtime Deduction Rules for 2025 Click here for Questions and answers about the new deduction for qualified overtime compensation   Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.  

Yes, it could be.  Your home damage from the Eaton Fire (January 2025) is considered a "qualified disaster loss" and can therefore create a Net Operating Loss (NOL). This happens if the total amount of your uninsured fire loss is larger than your total income for the year, creating taxable income below zero.    Because the Eaton Fire was part of a major federal disaster declaration, you can either claim this loss on your current 2025 return to carry the "extra" loss forward to future years or file an amended 2024 return to get a refund on taxes you paid last year.    When you enter the disaster loss details into TurboTax, a Form 4684 will be generated to calculate this and will automatically track any leftover loss as an NOL.

@user17705936669    well....Deluxe Online won't do any stock transactions or Cap gains for Mutual fund distributions, nor Self-Employment/Gig income......and a bunch of other stuff.   Deluxe desktop will do everything.   Those are just some guesses...without knowing details of your income types...there's no way for us to tell.   _______________   Scroll down this page and there's two tables showing what, and what cannot be done with Online Deluxe, something might show up...most likely in the second table: Free Tax Filing - $0 Fed. $0 State. $0 to File. | TurboTax 2025-2026

It could be related to Form CT-W4 Employee’s Withholding Certificate.  This form has codes that are used to determine the amount of state withholding to withhold from wages.  It uses withholding codes with letters A-F.  

Form IT-201 is the New York State Resident Income Tax Return. Form IT-201 (New York State Resident Income Tax Return) is generated automatically in TurboTax when you complete the federal return information and you have indicated that you are a New York resident.    You can get there by clicking on the "State Taxes" tab if you are using TurboTax Desktop, or selecting the State tab in the left menu after finishing your federal return. On the Let's get your state taxes done right screen, select Continue and follow the on-screen TurboTax instructions to enter your state-specific information.    If you have already filed your federal tax return, use the "Add a state" option to start.    Click here for How do I e-file my state after I have already filed my federal?

In TurboTax Online, you may be able to Clear and Start Over.    Switch Products or Clear and Start Over may be found in the lower left hand corner of the screen if it is available to you.    See also this TurboTax Help.    As long as you:   have not submitted payment,  deducted the TurboTax fee from your refund, or  registered your product,  you may erase your return and start from scratch in TurboTax Online. If you have done any of these things, you will need to manually edit your return.  

You may not need to enter your 529 Plan Distributions.  A 1099-Q (reporting 529 plan or Coverdell ESA distributions) isn't always requird to be entered on your tax return.  If the total distribution is used for qualified education expenses, then it is generally tax-free and nothing needs to be reported. However, you must enter it if the distribution exceeds expenses or if you are claiming education credits. 

Some customers may experience a new way to navigate TurboTax this tax season.   You will use Tax Home as your single location to find the next step in filling out your tax return and view items you’ve completed.   To add more info to your tax return like forms or credits, select Need to add something else?.    You can then search for the section you need.  If you want to go to a different section, first select Tax Home in the left menu. From there, you can choose what to do next.   Are you able to view these items under 2025 TAXES down the left side of the screen?   My Info Federal State Taxes Review File Tax Tools If so, you may click on the first item to enter names and addresses.   Click Federal to open up Wages & Income and Deductions @ Credits to report your income and deduction items.  

ALL I could suggest is to go back to the Personal Info section, Edit yourself and check the birthday showing there....should be around 1950.   And..if using the desktop software...make sure it's the 2025 set.

Thanks for the reply. We received two separate 1095A forms one with just me and a policy number and another again my name as the subscriber but his name as the insured person. Now when I do as you said and share it with someone else it still asks for his income and then is asking for a recoupment I assume based off my income plus his. If I allocate the shared percentages as 0% myself and 100% him that would change the asked recoupment if he had very little income (full time college student working part time for a little spending cash)?

Are you referring to line 21 of Kentucky form 740 that states Multiply line 19 by the Family Size Tax Credit decimal amount from Schedule ITC?  Or are you referring to something else?  Please clarify.   Nonrefundable Family Size Tax Credit The family size tax credit is based on modified gross income and the size of the family. If total modified gross income is $42,760 or less for 2025​​, you may qualify for the Kentucky family size tax credit.
