You would only enter the Form 1095-A on your tax return if your name was in box 4 (recipient) or your spouse's name was in box 7(recipient's spouse's name) and you are filing jointly with your spouse. If your child has a form with their name on it, that would not be entered on your tax return. It would be entered on the child's tax return if they were required to file one.

Yes, you can claim mileage as medical expenses.   To learn more about what travel expenses you can claim as medical expenses, please read this article: Medical Expenses 2025   The process to enter medical expenses in TurboTax Online and TurboTax Desktop is different. You can review this article to follow the steps to enter your medical expenses.   Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

I think I found the issue.  The unearned income is actually over $2700.  From the step-step process, I did not see the "total capital gain distribution", I only see the investment interest (1099-INT) and investment divident (1099-DIV).  With the addition of the"total capital gain distribution", the unearned income is just over $2700.

I need to say sorry to anyone following this thread! The item was reported on 1099-B AND was included in Forms! What threw me was that it showed up in Interest (plus I have extremely bad eyesight)! For the record it was on 1099-B as line 1f accrued market disc (D). TT put it into the Capital Asset Sales Worksheet, into the Brokerage Statement. Code D - Short term sales with cost basis reported to IRS. It was listed in Forms as a Capital Asset sale, not as an interest. It also appears on Form 8949 "Sales and other dispositions of Capital Assets".  So - good old TT saved my bacon again! My thanks to the Community as well.

The program should be treating the figure as a negative so ensure you're inputting the figure(s) correctly.    You can contact Support if you can't resolve this issue; this should be a deduction from your other income assuming you have no other capital gains (also capital gain distributions).

@michaelbarry06  The answer there is no.  (I don't quite understand why that question is asked.)   The 2025 salary deferral is whatever your spouse agreed to with her employer for 2025.  It would never include prior amounts.    

We have tested QBI for Schedule C but are unable to reproduce the experience you have seen. It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file to test this issue further.   If you would be willing to send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information, please follow these instructions:    In TurboTax Desktop, open your return and go to Online in the TurboTax header. (On a Mac computer, choose Share or Help.) Choose Send Tax File to Agent. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click Send on this screen and wait for the Token number to appear. Reply to this thread with a screenshot of your Token number (this avoids Community filters for numbers with a dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important. We will then be able to see the same experience you are having. If we are able to determine the cause, we'll reply here and possibly provide you with a resolution.
