Our daughter earned only $900 (W-2) in 2025, and we are using TurboTax Desktop to prepare her return.  If my husband and I do not claim her as a dependent, will she be unable to claim or get tax benefit from Education Credits or receive the $1000 refundable portion of the American Opportunity Tax Credit (AOTC), because she has not tax liability?   Given this situation, would it be better for us to claim her as a dependent in obtain  to a greater tax benefit than she would receive by filing her own return?   P.S. Income of my husband and I were high and we are not eligible to claim her education credits.

i was on the phone with turbotax for a while who told me to call quickbooks which i did. They informed me it was a clitch they were working to fix and should be resolved by the Aprill 15th deadline. However, if i didn't want to wait i could pay the fee and it would be reimbursed, but i'm not sure the procedure. They do admit it's their fault and i do think we'll be reimbursed, just don't know h ow long or how much of a hassle it will be .
On the TurboTax W-2 you enter the amount from your W-2 box 12a in box 12.  If your W-2 has an amount in box 12b then on the TurboTax W-2 click on Add another box 12 item

So, I am filing my taxes together with my wife. My taxes netfiled ok with no errors. However, when I try to netfile my wife's, I get an error I cannot get around. There is no specific error number but it is referring to my income and saying we need to indicate whether or not my income is NIL or not. It is not so I selected NO. However, it continues to tell me that we need to indicate if the income is NIL or not, which I of course have done. And around and around it goes. Was on phone with support for over an hour but then they lost connect and hung up on me. They never called back so I am trying here to see if anyone has seen this before and what they did to fix it.

I was able to go into form and update form Soc Sec manually with the SSA-1099 data.   I Don't understand why after many years TURBOTAX Has not fix this problem. It seem they are more interested in upselling services that fixing bugs.
How do you do this for the desktop version? It doesn't seem to let me edit what's pre-filled

@dave43    For some reason this strange behavior has happened to a few other Desktop users.   Their solution was to switch to Forms Mode, then open and delete the "Social Security Benefits Worksheet".   Then returning to the interview, and their SS entry proceeded as expected in the SSA-1099 entry area. __________________ Or...maybe a computer reboot might help if still whacky. (wild guess)      
This issue has been escalated to TurboTax Tier 2 Support, and I am awaiting a reply from them.

How did you update?  I am using Expert Assist for Mac and still cannot get the Form 5695 to function.  When it first happened on march 1 the problem was entering my home address information.  Agent had me delete and download 5695 again which corrected that problem but then I got the rejection notice when it was submitted (Federal only here in Texas).  March 6 came and went and today, March 9 still can't get it done.  On hold with support for nearly an hour.

Hi there @TurboTaxAniqua , Unfortunately, when I opened Schedule 2 in "Form", there's no option/checkbox neither at the top nor the bottom on the form to select "Tick here to not claim transfer/Do not Calculate".  Is there a special "keyboard combination" to use to show this option?   I think I'm not the only one who runs into this issue.  Therefore, if you provides the solution here, it will help others as well.   Thanks,
