Hello there ReneV4,  Very much appreciate your step by step instructions.  To report back on my attempts to apply them:    1)  Checked both 1099-R forms for my two inherited IRA accounts, and Box 2a is blank on both, and both have the code Q in box 7.   These forms (as well as the other 1099-R that I received from Schwab) were both imported into Turbotax and so the information was  automatically populated.    2)  When I review the 1099-R information for each of those entry (by clicking on the pencil to edit) I have indicated that they are both Roth IRAs, that they were inherited, and then it asked me for the name of the person I inherited it from, and  I entered the name of my mother and the year of her death (2012).   3) However, beyond that, there were no questions asking if the Roth was opened before 2021, nor was there any screen saying "Let's get more information about your RMD" or any place to list the amount of the RMD.  Therefore, I was not able to go beyond step 5 of your instructions.  So did I miss something?   

My daugher does not receive any scholarship.  There is no 1099-T form either. I restarted her filing on TurboTax from scratch, so I treated 1099-Q as non-existent (per previous suggestion from Turbo Tax online explert.  The result is the same, the final review keeps flagging errors.   As I mentioned before, her earned income (part time job), and unearned income (from bank) are very small and those are all incomes she has.  No scholarship, no pell grant, no student loan, etc.... no other income   Please try the desktop version and see the error yourself.  I hope this will be fixed soon,  I want to finish the taxes.  Thanks

Never again will I use TurboTax. The amount of times I’ve called and was given different responses by different agents. I need to remove a dependent so the other person is waiting on me to amend and I am waiting on TurboTax to allow me access to the tools. I’ve been given so many different dates after paying to expedite the refund (which was already deposited and updated on the IRS website and TurboTax since mid February) I still have to wait. February 25th came and went…the access is still nonexistent. The last rep on the phone said TurboTax tells their ppl a certain date to calm them down, but it usually delays and is never accurate. Thanks for the confirmation never to use this service again. 

Carl - Thanks for the heads-up.  I'm 2 years late to the post, but I almost have the same issues with short rentals for a few years (2002-2004), personal use 100% (2005-2016), then resume rental (2017 - 2024) varying ~85.85% rental!  Would you suggest I apply all the depreciation up to 2024, and start 2025 with the new cost basis and 100% rental depreciation since we won't be using any personal days? Actually we've been at 100% rental use every year since 2020, but the new CPA manager continued to use the same 85.85% rental use percentage from 2019 :( Carl - Also, I think you might have mentioned in some other post that we should NOT enter the Prior Depreciation from the TurboTax prompts?  I did try to put the in-service date back to 2002 when we first started part-time rental, then enter the Prior Depreciation per the CPA record, set the Business Use to ~35 percent for the whole period and got the proper annual depreciation!  BUT that's a No-No, right?
