I also did a transfer from LIF to RRSP, but my issue is in 2024 I did the transfer in Feb 2024.  So last year I had to put the RRSP contributions in as a carryforward.  So now I have a carryforward and a T4RIF but turbotax online Premium does not recognize my eligible transfer even though I keyed in the transfer amount.  It is just allowing me to deduct up to my contribution limit, therefore I owe apparently alot of money.  This is not how it is suppose to work.  How do I get turbotax to recognize the eligible transfer?

Re line 37 comment, TT is just reflecting how Form 1040 is worded, the instructions clarify to add in the penalty.   Seen a couple of posts like this and interested why the different outcome as the calculations on Form 2210 are very clear so I don't see why it would be an 'estimate' of the penalty.  If the IRS is independently calculating a different result, they must have a different 2023 tax liability/AGI, 2024 tax liability/withholding or estimated payment dates.  Was there anything unusual about your return, did you check your Form 2210 to see how TT calculated it, did it use 2023 or 2024 tax for the safe harbor, no confusion between you and IRS on ES payment dates?

Q.  I'm uneasy about not reported the 1099-Q? A. It is actually not possible to "report" it to the IRS. You can enter in TurboTax (TT), but it will not get reported to the IRS. When the box 1 amount on form 1099-Q is fully covered by expenses, TT  will enter nothing about the 1099-Q on the actual tax forms. Most people with a 1099-Q, do not report it to the IRS. 

If you sold your primary personal residence and you lived in and owned the home for at least two years in the five year period on the date of sale, you do not have to report the sale if your gains are less then the exclusion amounts of $250,000 if filing Single or $500,000 if filing Married Filing Jointly (and both lived in the home for two years).
