This is what I see now. The issue is that I see a submit button yesterday, but I didn't click it. I just tried to review it again. After a couple of times, now it shows this. So in general, when will the number of filing limit get count? How do I know the actual "5" e filed returns? I think they should be cancelled. I have mail the amend manually. But I am sharing with my families and they might hit this message I think.

Did he just get paid in cash?     If you weren’t paid $600 or more, a business isn’t required to send you a 1099-NEC, but you still need to report the income. To enter your self-employment income not reported on a 1099-NEC: Type “Schedule C” in the Search box Select the “Jump to” link. Answer the general questions about your business (or select Edit at the work summary screen). At the Let’s get income for… screen, select Additional Income. When in your account, select the Take Me to My Return button on the main screen. If you did make $600 or more, contact the company or individual you worked for.

Line 3 of the Worksheet for Determining Support says, "Enter the amount on line 1 that was used for other purposes." It is asking for what amount of the funds shown on line 1 were used for purposes other than support.   In order to determine if you have provided more than half of a person's total support by comparing the amount you contributed to that person's support with the entire amount of support that person received from all sources. This includes support the person has provided from their own funds.    To figure if you have provided more than half of a person's support, you have to determine the total support provided for that person. Total support includes amounts spent to provide food, lodging, clothing, education, medical and dental care, recreation, transportation, and similar necessities.    The following items aren't included in total support.  1. Federal, state, and local income taxes paid by persons from their own income.  2. Social security and Medicare taxes paid by persons from their own income.  3. Life insurance premiums.  4. Funeral expenses.  5. Scholarships received by your child if your child is a student.  6. Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance payments used for the support of the child who receives them   Click here for Worksheet for Determining Support   Click here for Dependents, Standard Deduction, and Filing Information

This problem seems to still persist, and I don't see any responses from Turbo Tax in over a year.  I called in and got a product person who had no idea about this issue and didnt seem to be able to or want to dig into it.  As I recall, last year, TT desktop did not let me electronically file as a result of 1095A linked to a business, which was prior to this new circumstance of now having to deal with policy allocations.  Does any one have any insight into this?

if it was a PONZI scheme, you are probably entitled to a casualty loss deduction.  you may want to consult a pro to see if you loss is a loss from a Ponzi scheme. alify.  A pure theft probably doesn't qualify as a Ponzi scheme. Don't think Coinbase reports purchases. only when crypto is sold do they report sales and cost to IRS. 

So how do we identify he as an independent contractor/self-employed or not since he works for her once in a blue moon?  Reason I asked is I found this on IRS website and I am a little confused and want to understand fully...   If payment for services you provided is listed on Form 1099-NEC, Nonemployee Compensation, the payer is treating you as a self-employed worker, also referred to as an independent contractor. You don't necessarily have to have a business for payments for your services to be reported on Form 1099-NEC. You may simply perform services as a nonemployee. The payer has determined that an employer-employee relationship doesn't exist in your case. If you weren't an employee of the payer, where you report the income depends on whether your activity is a trade or business. You're in a self-employed trade or business if your primary purpose is to make a profit and your activity is regular and continuous. If you're in a self-employed trade or business, you must include payments for your services on Schedule C (Form 1040), Profit or Loss From Business (Sole Proprietorship). If you're self-employed, you'll also need to complete Schedule SE (Form 1040), Self-Employment Tax and pay self-employment tax on your net earnings from self-employment of $400 or more. There's no withholding of tax from self-employment income. As a self-employed individual, you may need to make estimated tax payments during the year to cover your tax liabilities. Refer to Form 1040-ES, Estimated Tax for Individuals for more details on who must pay estimated tax. If you're not an employee of the payer, and you're not in a self-employed trade or business, you should report the income on line 8j of Schedule 1 (Form 1040), Additional Income and Adjustments to Income PDF and any allowable expenses on Schedule A (Form 1040), Itemized Deductions. Refer to “Activity not for profit” in Publication 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income for allowable nonbusiness expenses.

You can enter the amounts for the "mock" Pennsylvania return as appropriate- with the joint account, dividing equally is most appropriate.  It does not matter that it does not match the 1099sl mas you reported it correctly on the federal return you filed.
