It depends what state you live in.  While there is no renter's credit on the federal level, the money you pay to rent the land beneath your mobile home is generally considered a qualifying expense for state-level renter's credits or rebates. Although you own the home itself, most states that offer these benefits, such as California, Minnesota, and Maryland, treat "lot rent" or "site fees" as the equivalent of traditional apartment rent because it is paid for the use of your primary residence's location.

I am having a similar problem. I have already filed a 1040, and now need to file an amended return. The 1040-X form is visible on-screen but will not print.  The PDF shows two blank pages (where the form should be) followed by two pages of worksheets. I am using Windows desktop, and the software is up-to-date as of a few minutes ago.   Please help?  

Did you have non-deductible contributions to your IRA?  If not, you don't need to enter a value here.  In the IRA contribution interview, there's a question asking if you made non-deductible contributions, and if so,  you're asked for a year-end balance.  This info will go to Line 18 of the IRA Information Worksheet, then to Line 6 on Form 8606. If you haven't yet received Form 5498, use your year-end account balance.    Here's more info on Form 8606 and IRA Year End Balance.   @dsp4

If your daughter is still your dependent, and you marked that she was a dependent on another return, she will not be able to claim the education credit on her return.  If she is your dependent, you will need to claim her education expenses on your return.     To enter your education expenses in TurboTax follow these steps:   Login to your account Go to Tax Home and then Deductions & Credits Scroll down to Education Credits, select Edit Go through all the questions, one wrong answer could have disqualified you from the credit.  For more information on education credits and their requirements see the TurboTax help article:   What education tax credits are available?

I am struggling to find the closing costs for the original property. I believe given what you said, I would not be able to deduct them regardless, so maybe not worth the effort to research and just leave as zero?
