Diane...I have seen your name before! Always great information. We had to travel from our summer home back to Florida in order to replace the roof on our rental property---a roof totaled by Milton. We would not have traveled to Florida except we wanted to be on site for the replacement, to assure that a good job was done. We used a personal car--not the vehicle designated for business use for this and other rentals that we own (my husband's older SUV). The round trip was 1300 miles. How do I enter this expense? And what is the allowance per mile if it is entered into the travel line? I don't want to enter the personal car, especially since I don't keep mileage records for it! Your guidance is much appreciated!

Ran a dupe of return and checked box as directed. Crazy, but it worked. But stuff like this undermines confidence in program. Thanks for help.///@456ASD

Yes. You can claim the Northern Residents Deduction even if you lived with your parents, as long as you lived in a CRA‑prescribed northern or intermediate zone for at least six consecutive months. Everyone in the household can claim the basic residency amount, but only one person per household can claim the additional residency amount.

Thank you for your response. It sounds like my terminology was confusing. My 1040 is not negative. I have w2 income that has nothing to do with the Scorp. It is a passive loss carryforward from an S corp (1) whose losses accrued after 2017. The passive carry-forward loss from the scorp is applied to the Scorps' profit this year. The carry-forward losses exceed this year's profit. TurboTax is taking all that into account and applying the carry-forward amount to the total 2025 profit but not applying the 80/20 rule. The total amounts appear on K1 (Passive Activity to Adjustment to Income or Loss and Form 8582 Passive Activity Loss Limitations. It is not due to Basis limitations.

It is automatic based on your age. It is not part of your Standard Deduction. The new Senior Deduction is separate and in addition to the Standard Deduction or your Itemized Deductions on 1040 line 12e. The 6,000/12,000 senior deduction will be calculated on 1040 Schedule 1-A page 2 Part V Enhanced Deduction for Seniors which goes to 1040 line 13b with any other sch 1-A amounts. Turbo Tax automatically includes it if you qualify. If you are married you have to file a Joint return.
For Online version You can preview the 1040 or print the whole return https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/accessing/help/how-do-i-preview-my-turbotax-online-return-before-filing/00/26160 If you are looking for the full $46,700 (34,700+12,000) it should be on 1040 line 14. What do you have on 1040 or 1040SR line 13b? See the 1040 ….

I used to be able to do my daughter's taxes also. But now I don't see an option to start another return. Turbo Tax AI assistant is useless!

They screwed up my state taxes with their "alternative filing methods"

Don't waste your money. Plenty of free options that don't lead you on with the promise of a better refund.

I have a to file tax returns in two states. I also have dividends from treasury bonds that are exempt from state taxes. I was attempting to complete the non-resident return details and it asks what amount of the deduction from the t-bill dividends should be applicable. It should be 0 because I didn't live in that state when I earned the dividend. It asks for a positive adjustment as a negative number and a negative adjustment as a positive number (the wording is weird but that is irrelevant). If X is the amount, when I put -X for a positive adjustment, the deduction is still credited to that state. So I try +X, and I end up with a -3*X deduction. I try 0, I end up with a -2*X deduction. Realizing the pattern, I enter -2*X, and this somehow translates into no deduction for this state (and then properly allocates the deduction to the other state). Clearly some issues with the +/- calculation. Hope it can be resolved and help somebody else in this scenario. Happy to provide additional details if necessary.

Complete waste of money. Their "alternative filing methods" are shady. Don't believe the refund they project if you do attempt to use them. Far better free options out there.

I was able to enter a value in column A, which I did not try earlier. That value was transferred to column C as needed. Thank you very much for your expert help.
