In my opinion, this is REALLY something that you need to sit down with a good tax professional to discuss.   Between vehicle limits (you may not be eligible to take the full deduction), Social Security maximums, goals/projections for the future, and the question if an S-corporation is even a good idea for your other business, you really need somebody that can analyze your ENTIRE situation.

If you have never been depreciating the property (you would have entered it in the exact same place/way that you are depreciating the improvements and furniture), you'll need Form 3115 to start doing that and to 'catch up' on the missed depreciation.   TurboTax does not really support that, and I highly suggest going to a good tax professional that is experienced with Form 3115 for missed depreciation.

I think it is under "Deductions and Credits", then "Home Energy Credits".   However SEER2 is not the only requirement to meet for heat pumps.  They also needs to meet the EER2 ratings and the HSPF2 ratings.  Based on your high SEER2 ratings I suspect they may also meet the EER2 and HSPF2 ratings, but you'll need to check.

Ok thank you so much for the detailed explanation. As it would be a very small business and I don't know how it will go. Is to possible to start registering the new business with a Fictitious Name under the same LLC and then in the future if I see that it's growing create a separate LLC for it or it would be complicated to do it once the business it's already established? Thank you 

Your suggestion is a good one, so let's set that aside for the moment.   Looking just at the technical aspect of the question, I do not believe that correcting entries on the Federal Carryover *Worksheet* is actually an override. Unlike a calculated field on a form with an override, I don't believe inputting a different value than was transferred from last year on a worksheet would prevent efiling. In retrospect, I should not have used the word "override" in my original comment.

After you copy the program from the disk image to the applications folder on your hard drive, you have to drag the image (virtual disk) into the trash to unmount it.  The Mac is seeing 2 copies of the program (one on your hard drive and one on the virtual drive) and is trying to open the wrong copy. 

@Click    1)  There are so many software and form updates needed between now and the end of January, that I "Strongly" suggest you start over with a new file in late January....after which, most of the critical bugs will have been fixed.  If you try to go with you current file, there might be some other errors that crop up that might be unfixable. AND 2)  The software will not allow you to e-file a tax return containing any fields with overrides or marked as being estimated numbers in them.  You would only be able to print and mail-file.   Thus, only use your early prep to get an idea of what the final filing might look like.   Starting over could be a bit of a pain, but it may well be less frustrating at the time you end up filing.

Never mind. I tested this using a new return and found that the bug has not been corrected as if 2025.47.5 (Nov 13, 2025).   And it appears that I'll have to leave the override in place all the way through to filing as there is no way to retrigger a transfer from last year without starting over (as far as I can tell).
