You enter the marketplace insurance using Form 1095-A and the interview questions to generate Form 8962. Then you must link it to Schedule C.  You do not enter this insurance using the SE-Health Insurance link on Schedule C. That will cause a double up 

I do not recall seeing this form to fill out in the program, so it needs to be filled out manually? then mailed in with the 8453? I have to fill out and mail in an 8453 already with a 8949 because I have non-covered share stock sales from prior to 2010 (so many questions about that form also, should I call someone?) and assume I need to attach something to all of these. It feels rather archaic and burdensome for a "premiere product" I paid for.  I'm still trying to figure out 15 years of DRIP cost basis on 5 stocks, and now this. pffffft. 

I don't know how to reply to you.  This is for JamesG1.  My asset listing shows the correct depreciation for each year of depreciation for the asset.  My asset in the step by step depreciation shows the wrong depreciation.  Why is the depreciation different between the asset listing and the actual depreciation claimed on the return?  The asset listing is correct for every year.  This year's depreciation claimed on the return is wrong.  I don't know how to describe it any clearer.  This problem includes four assets that are not correct.

The results are good and here are the steps to follow: Enter the amount of wages in box 1 (as if they had been placed there) > finish the W-2 screen Continue to 'Let's check for other situations' > check the box next to 'Nontaxable Medicaid waiver payments that qualify as difficulty of care payments' Continue > 'Let's check your Medicaid waiver payments' > Check the boxes 'All of it' and 'No' Preview your return to look at the following lines: Schedule 1, Line 8s you will see the negative adjustment carried to Line 9 on the 1040.

When importing a cryptocurrency TXF file into TurboTax Desktop, the software defaults to 1099-B and does not present an option for 1099-DA.   TurboTax has yet to release information about upgrades to IRS form 1099-DA.  Thank you for your patience.   When reviewing the entries, you are able to use the 'bulk edit' function to report the Investment type as Cryptocurrency.   The 'bulk edit' function is found at the screen Review your XXX sales, by clicking the white box to the left of the word Description.

Boxes 5, 6, and 7 of Form 1099-NEC are related and TurboTax will look for entries in the other boxes if there is an entry in once box. Box 5 of the 1099-NEC may be blank even if Boxes 6 and 7 have entries, if no state income tax was withheld. If Box 5 (State tax withheld) is zero or empty, the state information in Boxes 6 and 7 is generally not required. If there is no withholding on your form, and the program is "stuck" at this step, see if removing the entries in Boxes 6 and 7 resolves the issue.   If you have already addressed all of the areas of your return for which Review asked for more information or corrections, you have checked your Internet connection, and the program is not progressing to the next step, try the following steps:    Try exiting TurboTax, restarting your device and starting TurboTax again. Try using a different browser. Chrome usually works well. Try clearing your cache and cookies.    

 While foreign earned income is excluded from Federal taxes , some states do not recognize this exclusion and may tax it, so verify your specific state's rules.  In general, you must report to your resident state, regardless of where it was earned.  You are only able to allocate income on part year and nonresident returns in TurboTax.     If you think the state amount is incorrect, you can try to request a corrected W2 from your employer, but they most likely will not make the correction because that is what they reported to the state and this correction usually has to be made before the W2 is submitted by them to the IRS and SSA.

There is no Payer ID for a SSA1099.  You are trying to enter it in the wrong place.      Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.

There is nothing to "resolve."    You enter the W-2 exactly as it appears.    Teachers in IL pay into Teachers Retirement System instead of paying in to Social Security.   The information about TRS will be in box 12 of her W-2.   You just enter the W-2 exactly as it is.     There are three states which have varying degrees of participation in SS for teachers, depending on school districts—GA, KY, and RI.   Why Does Social Security Leave Out Teachers in These 15 States?   Some state government employees, including teachers, don't pay Social Security payroll taxes and aren't entitled to retirement benefits from Social Security. The history of this practice dates all the way back to Social Security's formation, when the law was intended to cover only private employees. At the time, it wasn't clear whether the federal government could force states to pay payroll taxes. Only in the 1950s did the rules change, allowing states to have the ability to join Social Security. The majority of states elected to enroll their government workers in Social Security. At that point, those workers started paying payroll taxes, and they earned their retirement benefits in the same way as any other worker. However, not every state participated. Now teachers in 12 states -- Alaska, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada, Ohio, and Texas -- don't have coverage arrangements with Social Security. In addition, three other states -- Georgia, Kentucky, and Rhode Island -- have varying degrees of coverage that differ by school district.
