Material participation means you were spending time do something to generate the income. It appears you were receiving training, so that would indicate that you did materially participate in the activity. This is in contrast to someone that was a silent investor in a business, for instance, one who maybe put up money but was not involved in the running of the business.   The other issue of whether or not you were self-employed would depend on how you answered three question you will see after you enter the Form 1099-MISC. You will be asked if the activity was associated with you main job, whether you only received the compensation in the current year and whether you had a profit motive to receive the compensation. If you answer yes to any of those questions, then your income will be treated as self-employment income in TurboTax and you will see the question regarding material participation.

@user17729034067  Si vous recevez ce message, c'est que vous avez toujours un ou des formulaires verrouillés dans votre déclaration.

I agree - It is almost impossible to get a turbo tax representative to answer the phone this year.  I keep getting asked for a 13 digit ID number.  I have no idea what it is and is nowhere on the package I received with the license code included with my purchase of the 2025 Deluxe version.   

Here's what I have done which seems to works.  I entered the full real estate taxes for the first form 8829 on line 11.  On the second 8829, I entered the full amount on line 17, excess real estate taxes.  It gives me the same refund number as when I entered both full amounts on line 11 and got the error.  Not sure if it is the right way to do it or not, but it is the only thing working for me.

Roger,   My Federal Schedule A line 5b is $4495 and 5c is $149.  TT is populating Idaho Tax form 40 line 14 as $5356, which presumable is ($10,000-$4495-$149).  Page 8 of Form 40 instructions from Idaho Tax Commission updated 3/2/2026 says "If you use federal schedule A to itemize, follow these instructions: If federal Schedule A, line 5d is: more than $40,000 (mine is $43,658), subtract lines 5b and 5c from line 5e, and enter the amount here.  Enter zero for any result less than zero."   Based on these instructions line 14 should be ($40,000-$4495-$149)=$35,356   Please let me know if this is just something TT has not updated yet due to the late passage of the Idaho Conformity law or if I just don't understand the calculation.   Thank!

Nous sommes conscients de ce problème et il sera résolu d'ici le 17 mars. Pour le moment, vous pouvez saisir n'importe quel courriel valide dans la ligne TP1 10.1 pour contourner cette erreur. Si vous saississez uniquement un courriel sans cocher aucune case (10.2...10.5), aucune de ces informations ne sera transmise à RQ, même pas le courriel. Nous vous remercions de votre patience.

Last year, it took me 13 days to figure out that I needed the IP PIN from the IRS before I could file for 2024. This year, I retrieved the 2025 IP PIN in mid-January. When I filled out my taxes this year, there was no prompt to enter the IP PIN when going through the step-by-step instructions. This should be incorporated into the program. A new IP PIN is needed every year. Extra peace of mind in this age of cyber criminals.

I'm back... and still wrestling w/ CoPilot - - which is saying the defining authority for whether or not Traditional IRA income is applicable for the Pension Exclusion is the worksheet for Line 28a, which is part of GIT 1&2.      Honestly, I've spent a few minutes trying to figure that table out, to no avail - - it's NOT at all clear...
