Maybe.    If he lived with you the whole year in 2024 and had less than $5050 of income  -- not counting any Social Security -- then he could be a "qualified relative" dependent for whom you could get the $500 credit for other dependents. Qualifying relative They don't have to be related to you (despite the name). They aren't claimed as a dependent by someone else. They're a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident. They aren’t filing a joint return with their spouse. They lived with you the entire year (exceptions apply). They made less than $5050 in 2024 (not counting Social Security) You provided more than half of their financial support. When you add someone as a dependent, we'll ask a series of questions to make sure you can claim them. There may be other tax benefits you can get when you claim a dependent.

we're saying the same thing for that question - you report your balance as of 12/31, do not adjust for any contribution made for 2024 after 12/31.   This 12/31/24 balance is used to calculate the tax on any Roth conversion you did in calendar year 2024; if you have a balance (across all your IRAs if your multiple accounts) in excess of the basis from the "after tax" non-deductible contributions (due to earnings in the IRA or a 401k rollover etc), then the Roth conversion will consist of a pro-rata amount of pre-tax and after-tax funds, and taxed accordingly.  The general premise of the backdoor Roth being entirely non-taxable is you do not have any balance in your Trad IRA, you contribute, convert and it goes back to zero.   Separately, you would report that you made a contribution in 2025 for 2024, which will update your basis in the IRA for the 2024 tax year which will carry forward to the tax calculation in 2025.  This will be reflected in lines 1, 4 and 14 of Form 8606 for 2024, and carries forward to line 2 of Form 8606 for 2025.   If you are using desktop use forms mode to see how Form 8606 is being filled in; with TT online I think you can see it when you export the PDF of your return.

Both answers are the same, see where @baldietax  wrote "take the instructions very literally when it asks for your balance as of 12/31/24 it means as of that date."   Where are you in the instructions and why are you asking?   For purposes of preparing form 8606 for non-deductible contributions or conversions involving non-deductible contributions,  the form wants your balance at the close of business on 12/31/24, regardless of later, backdated contributions.  Later backdated contributions are handled on a different place on that form.   If you are somewhere else in the program asking about a different form, let us know what you are working on and we can double-check and confirm the answer if you like.

Yes, you can. While we don't have our 2025 software out yet, you can put your 2025 information into a 2024 TurboTax Online return to get an estimate.    You can also do that with TurboTax Desktop too, or you can use the built in Planner mode. To use planner mode, open or create a return, go into Forms mode, and then select Tools>Planner Mode for 2025 from the top grey  menu.   For a quicker estimate, you can also use our Tax Calculator, which you can find here: 2024-25 Canada Income Tax Calculator

TurboTax will automatically use the itemized deduction amount IF the amount is greater than the standard deduction for your filing status. Note that some itemized deductions are limited - Only your total medical expenses that are greater than 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) can be deducted. For the 2024 tax year, the state and local tax (SALT) deduction is limited to $10,000 for most filers and $5,000 for married taxpayers filing separately, This limit, often called the "SALT cap," applies to the combined total of state and local income (or sales) and property taxes. Donations to public charities are generally limited to 60% of your AGI.   Standard deductions for 2024 Single - $14,600 add $1,950 if age 65 or older Married Filing Separately - $14,600 add $1,550 if age 65 or older Married Filing Jointly - $29,200 add $1,550 for each spouse age 65 or older Head of Household - $21,900 add $1,950 if age 65 or older
