i have already made myself single but it continues to carry over teh information i input about my partner. we will be common law this year, 2026, and i mistakenly put it as last year as its when we moved in. but now i cannot remove the information from my profile and file online. i need to delete the form 30300 but i do not see an option to delete! 

Please ignore my previous post. I was under the false impression that with my wife and I both having an HDHP (one of them being family coverage) and both of us owning our own HSA, and finally both of us being at least 55 years old, that as a whole we could contribute $1,000 above the family contribution limit of $8550 for 2025. I've just learned we each can contribute an additional $1000 to our own account, as long as we don't exceed individual limit of $4,300+$1,000 and collectively we don't exceed $10,550. I thought our family contribution limit was $9,550. We therefore did not overfund out HSA accounts. No wonder the HSA Summary in Turbo Tax online reports that my taxable earnings on excess contributions is $0. Phew. 

The letter has to mirror the requirements in detail and give specifics.     I am retired now. No longer licensed. NY is a difficult state to deal with. They give you deadlines to respond yet fail to respond timely to your responses, normally exactly close to last day they must respond by.  i know partners at largest firms who failed their audit who worked from home for a NY employer as part of a retirement package but, as those partners spoke with NY clients and came into NY for the holiday party, even admitted driving through, they failed.  the Firm letter was short and documented exact office requirements and job location and that we did not go to NY office, had no desk at the NY office, and were not working on NY clients and specified offices we did go to, and did not have the option to work at the NY office.  Our letter:  We basically copied the requirements you meet, ensure you have your documentation.  For us, we worked on out of NY clients, never went into NY and did not have any office in NY. We also had an office in the home for meeting clients. We were not officers of the Firm.  letter started with the exact NY Rule: must meet Primary or 4 Secondary and 3 others.  then I listed each one. And responded to it. ones under each category we met with specific details.   We met more than required but, listed all even if NA, gave very detailed responses.  first round was 1 sentence to each, we failed. It took a few times and excessive detail, photos of business card, photos of dedicated office space, even a letter from a client stating they visited the home office.  

I did as you suggested and entered 6 months. Now Turbo Tax will not allow me to file as Head of Household and also will not allow me to enter child care expenses.  Please let me know where to enter those expenses as it is my year to claim my daughter.

Having the same issue and it's following the imported user.  Import account>don't validate anything>select forms view and delete everything possible. Select "Deductions and Credits">skipping everything> "I'll choose what I want to work on">"Done with Deductions">Continue and I get the error... Basically deleted everything possible and it still has the same issue.
