Hello, I received 1099 NEC for 2023 but didn't file because I thought I was exempt since my total income was below 14,000. I am a dependent and still live with my parents and didn't realize I had to file that. How do I file it now? 
You can use any percentage that you would like- as long as you agree amongst yourselves. If you cannot agree, the default is based on a proportionate percent based on the number of people on the plan... See more...
You can use any percentage that you would like- as long as you agree amongst yourselves. If you cannot agree, the default is based on a proportionate percent based on the number of people on the plan.  Since there is two of you on the plan, if you cannot agree, then it will be 50/50.   This article may be helpful: I'm on my parents' 1095-A form.

I've paid Intuit to file my taxes and they've sent me 3 or 4 emails stating the problem is on their side and they "haven't forgotten about me" but here it is Tax Day and the issue was never resolved. So I submitted a request for a call back and the person called me, made me screen share and said "Bear with me...just a moment" and about 1 minute later the call dropped. The system is asking for an EIN while filing a 1099-NEC and the Payer only provided an SSN since I'm not employed by the payer. The form even shows "EIN_______ or SSN________" which was filled out correctly. So now what do I tell the IRS when I'm late filing?
it added the car credit maybe i accidentally clicked something. i don't want to send it in 7000 $ off

So my water heater - which heats the water, and also heats the home is only one credit even though it is my "Furnace" and my Water Heater ? Seems illogical because the Tax Credit is an incentive , I could have purchased a Heat-pump for the Furnace - to use more electricity, and a Heat-pump Water heater to use more electricity .. and got the credit for both even though I would use more electricity. Hmmm.

I'm using Home & Business and it's giving me a home office expense carryover. It's only allowing  a small portion of my calculated home office deduction. As far as I can tell, it should only be limited if the deduction causes a loss, but the business profit is orders of magnitude greater than the deduction. Any ideas?
