Depends on what was wrong.   They won’t be filling the W2 until January so it should get corrected by then.   And you pay taxes on the taxable amount not the gross amount.   The gross amount includes everything even pre-tax items so the gross can be a lot more.

Thank you I will check it out. I still have a question about how to extract my existing data out of It's Deductible as I have tracked all my donations in it up until it was decommissioned. Does anyone know who to contact at Intuit to help me get access to that information?
We have EE bonds that have matured this year, how will this impact the taxes that I have to pay for them? Audrey W.
The YTD gross on my paycheck is incorrect by about $15,000. I have told my HR department about it, but it hasn't been fixed yet. How will this effect taxes if they don't correct it?
It seems not as I paid for and downloaded TT 2025 for Mac and it won't open on my desktop iMac

You can basically treat the income and expenses as all of the owners agree and see fit.   However, I'd urge caution on varying this arrangement from tax year to tax year based solely on taxable income of each owner since such an arrangement would lack economic substance (i.e., it would have no purpose other than tax avoidance).

Hi @elaine91 Thanks for joining the community!  There may be some credit cards that allow paying rent. Try searching  "Which credit card can I pay rent with?" to start your research.  Here's some articles and a discussion on how to start building your credit:  -How to build your credit -How to increase your credit score -How to Raise Your Credit Score Perhaps some others here on the community will have tips for you as well. Best of luck!

I moved to a condo this past September and rent a room from my brother.  I don't have a credit score right now because I haven't used any credit cards or taken out any loans.  I hope to build my credit score, and I looked up that I can do so by reporting my rental payments.  It is my first time renting from anywhere.  I pay my brother my rental payments through Zelle.  I tried using Experian to report my rent, but it wasn't getting me anywhere.  I was using Experian Boost, and it just scanned my bank and did nothing else.  I tried calling customer service, but it also led to no results, as the representatives I spoke to didn't quite understand what I was asking, even after I tried to explain it a couple of times.  I did look up sites I can use to report my rent, even though I use Zelle, and one site that came up was called Boom, which acts as a third party to send my reports to a credit bureau.  What I want to know is if there is anything else I need to do to report my rent and, in turn, build up my credit?
OK, thank you. It sounds like it may not be reliable for running EOY tax planning scenarios just yet.

Hi. He was a fulltime student through May of 2025 (meets the 5 month test), he provided for less than 50% of his support, and he will turn 23 in late December 2025. So yes, he does qualify to be my tax dependant for 2025.  (My crystal ball wasn't very clear in Dec 2024 when I had to make these decisions how the future world would look.)   What i meant by him being 'well short of the qualification income threshold' is that he won't earn enough ($10k in 2025 income) to even qualify for APTC on his own, and if I don't claim him as a tax dependant for 2025 and include his 1095-A info on my return as my dependant, he will have to pay back the entire APTC amount for 2025 - which is very significant.    So it sounds like even though I told Marketplace when I enrolled him last year that he would NOT be my dependant for 2025 tax year, I can simply file my 2025 return listing him as my dependant to reconcile his 1095-A Form numbers using Form 8962  (and he will file his return as a dependant to get refunded his fed/state statutory withholdings), and this will all reconcile out fine; I will have to repay a small, manageable amount of our combined APTC since we will all three (me, wife and son) will all be one happy tax family with a slightly larger total income and be eligile (in total) a slightly larger subsidy amount (maybe?).   Does that all sound correct? Thanks

I am retired with SS and a small pension.  Schwab takes out the tax on my RMD.  My understanding (from the forum) is that if I don't allow Schwab to deduct the tax, TurboTax will use my solar credit to pay it.  If I owe more taxes, I will pay the additional tax when I submit my tax refund.  Do I have that correct?
