The question is whether or not to click the box "did the dependent live with you?" for both dependents in the additional dependent information section. When each separated parent is claiming the amount for eligible dependent for only one child each.   If you select yes for both dependents live with you despite only selecting 1 yes to claim amount for eligible dependent, the income tax return increases by about $800 and CCB benefit basically doubles

New York counts you as a full year resident if you live there for at least 184 days in the year.  Which you did.  So for New York purposes you are a full year resident.   On the upside you can take a credit for the taxes paid to New York on any income that is also taxed by your new state.  Just do the New York return first and then when you do your new state you can take a credit for the taxes paid on the income that was also taxed by New York.   @Tax223

If the form was included in your tax file, it was e-filed with your return.   We'll automatically generate and fill out Form 8606 (Nondeductible IRAs) if you reported any of these on your tax return:   Nondeductible contributions made to a traditional IRA Distributions from a traditional, SEP, or SIMPLE IRA that had nondeductible contributions (not including rollovers, conversions, recharacterizations, qualified charitable distributions, one-time distribution to fund an HSA, or return of certain contributions) Conversions from a traditional, SEP, or SIMPLE IRA to a Roth IRA Distributions from a Roth IRA (other than rollovers, recharacterizations, or a return of certain contributions) However, you'll have to download and print Form 8606, manually fill it out (instructions), and print and file your return, if any of these three situations apply to you:   You received a distribution from an inherited traditional IRA that had nondeductible contributions. You transferred an inherited plan account to a Roth IRA. You received a distribution from an inherited Roth IRA that was not a qualified distribution. How do I find Form 8606?

What impact would not having any profit from the sale have? The house is a long-term asset in a community property state, and my husband died a year ago. Because of the 100% step-up in cost basis I should receive for the house due to his death, plus the cost of improvements we made to the house, I shouldn’t owe any capital gains taxes. Would offering owner financing interfere with getting the step-up in basis?

1040 e-filed OK in March, got Acceptance email back from IRS.  When I now attempt to amend via e-file, TTax is telling me that I can't because my original return was not e-filed thru TTax, even though it was, and it says as much when I check the status.  Any ideas?

Bonjour @gb-lp    Quelle version du logiciel utilisez-vous? Vous demandez les formulaires impliqués alors j'assume que vous utilisez la version téléchargée en mode formulaire.   Je ne connais pas les données pertinentes alors j'assume également que la vente est réalisée à un prix plus élevé que le coût. Donc, de façon très très sommaire... Pour le 33% occupé par le locataire Le formulaire T776 (et TP-128 au Québec), pour les revenus et les dépenses de la location. Ensuite, la vente pourrait aussi, dépendement de la valeur fiscale de la portion de l'immeuble (FNACC) loué, provoquer un revenu à titre de récupération d'amortissement (toujours dans le T776). Annexe 3. Il est également possible que la vente produise un gain en capital imposable. Pour le 66% occupé par le propriétaire.  La question est de savoir si cette portion sera désignée comme résidence principale pour l'entièreté ou une partie de la période (de 2021 à 2024) de détention. Si oui. alors il faudra déclarer la vente à l'aide du formulaire T2091 (TP-274 au Québec)  afin d'exonérer le gain, en tout ou en partie (pour la période où le bien n'est pas désigné comme résidence principale).  Il pourrait en résulter un gain en capital imposable. Si non, alors il faut déclarer la vente à l'annexe 3 et y calculer le gain en capital imposable.  Bonne journée.

A final return is required for the year the individual died.  So if someone died in 2024, and had taxable income or reporting requirements, a return would need to be filed for 2024 by April 15th or with an extension.  Death does not change the due date.
