I finally got a response after submitting a customer care request on the ARAG website. Representatives at TurboTax didn't even know about this product. The first time I called they were no help and the call eventually disconnected. I talked to someone else today, and they also had never heard of Will Builder. The sound quality was really bad, but he did try to connect me with some other "expert". That's when I saw the email reply from ARAG. They are supposed to initiate an email with access information, but I had to follow up and request them to do this. Maybe it's part my fault for being impatient, but they should have automatically contacted me and provided access when this was purchased.

Hello! I have invested a lot of time in doing my taxes this year (Prior years have been done by a CPA) and when I got up to the 4562 form for depreciation - looking back at the last 4 years…I have not a clue how they determined the numbers. I know H&R Block offers a look back…I want to do my taxes with turbo tax but need someone to look at these forms from prior years to determine how they did the depreciation and how to do it going forward.

MarilynG1, I just read your reply to me. If you look at the screenshot you sent me, you will see that TurboTax did the calculation wrong, and this is the trouble I have been having. The amount in line 29g of your example was $3333. That should be multiplied by 30% to get the amount for line 29h, which should be 999. But the form only shows $667 in line 29h, because it did not include the amount of the Heat Pump Water Heater in line 29C, which was $1111. Looks like the calculation here is not including the Heat Pump Water Heater. Can you explain this?

As the person above states. It WORKS for all other platforms, but NOT for Robinhood. So please investigate this instead of having us do unnecessary troubleshooting on our side.

If I amend 2024 but don't get a response before April 15, 2025 from Massachusetts, should I file a 2025 extension and wait to submit until 2024 amendment is accepted?

The IRS will contact you by mail, but it is best to make the payment first.
You can log into the IRS Payment Options Website to make payments
Each day you wait to pay an amount you owe to the IRS could incur additional penalties and interest costs.

Thanks. This was very helpful. I also clicked on the link you provided for Turbotax tax tip: closing a business. This referenced a Form 8594: Asset Acquisition Statement under Section 1060. This form is not available in Turbotax Home and Business. The same information seems to appear on form 4797, which is included. Is that sufficient to only include the information on form 4797? If Form 8594 is required, I am not sure how I would do that since I file electronically with Turbotax.

Intuit is working to get the Portland ARTS form e-file approved from the City of Portland authorities. At this time there is no date that has been given, but it is expected to be ready soon.

The total value of all traditional IRA amounts is important for determining the taxable amount of distributions or conversions for traditional IRA's that have contributions in them that were non-deductible. Even if you have several IRA accounts and only one of them has non-deductible contributions in it, IRS rules for Form 8606 require that non-deductible contributions need to be spread over all the IRA accounts in order to correctly determine the amount of conversions or distributions that are taxable.
If you have your own IRA and also an inherited IRA, any non-deductible contributions in those accounts are to be kept separate to correctly determine the taxable amount of distributions or conversion for each of those types of accounts.

I installed a Rheem XE65T10H45U1 heat pump water heater in 2025 at a total cost of $4,064.62 (equipment + installation + electrical work). Problem: TurboTax is only giving me a $64 energy credit instead of the $1,219 maximum for heat pump water heaters. What I've verified: - Model XE65T10H45U1 is on Rheem's official qualifying models list - Rheem's QMID is K3A8 (confirmed on Rheem's website and manufacturer certification) - When I enter the full cost ($4,064.62 or even just $3,852), the credit calculates as $0 - When I separate out only the electrical work ($212.50), it correctly calculates 30% = $64 Expected: 30% of $4,064.62 = $1,219 credit Actual: Only $64 credit (just the electrical work) This appears to be a TurboTax bug. Note: When I initially started my return, I was given the full amount. I logged in 2 weeks later after receiving all of my forms and now I see only a $64 credit. Something broke in the last few weeks Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround or is this a known bug that will be fixed in an update?

Yes, you should amend your return to report the correct amount of overtime premium. To amend your tax return, please read this TurboTax article.

I chose amend state only. At the end TT says it doesn't see any change (no change to 1040 only to Mass Form 1 and Schedule X.) I typed in an explanation. TT put the explanation on IRS Form 1040-X. Does Mass get IRS 1040-X if I submit electronically? IRS Form 1040-X is now showing amended. I do not want or need to amend 1040 to the IRS. Is it best to electronically file or paper file with a letter of explanation and a copy of last 8606? BTW - The entire credit is small and will be used in a single tax year.

@zuissjw1 It happens occasionally to folks. I usually tell people to make sure they e-file their own tax return, before e-filing for Family members. The filing count usually steps up by one (unexpectedly) if an e-file is rejected for a SSN mismatch. When corrected and re-e-filed, tha ends up counting as a new e-filing. Might be other instances where the count unexpectedly increases, but I'm not aware of them. Once you hit the 5....erroneous or not....the rest have to be printed and mail-filed at the post office (sign/date...attach any tax forms showing withholding, use a tracking method at the PO service counter...and [[[sorry, I have to say it]]] make sure you send the state forms separately to the state's Dept of Revenue address)
