You could open your return for the last year depreciation was calculated, update if needed, and re-save. Try transferring this file to the next year's program to see if depreciation is calculated in the Asset Summary section. You should get a screen stating current year depreciation amount at the end of that section. If no changes were made to the Asset, but you don't get a depreciation deduction, you may need to Edit/Re-enter your asset. You should see amounts for Cost/Prior Depreciation. If you used the trailer for both rental/personal days, it's possible you may not get a depreciation deduction, or if you claimed bonus/179 depreciation the first year. Review the first year's Depreciation and Amortization Report and check your Asset entries for the first year you set up the rental. @siebertclan

Here are the most likely reasons why your New York State tax liability is zero:
1. Your Income is Below the Standard Deduction
New York has its own standard deduction that is separate from the federal one. If your New York Adjusted Gross Income (NYAGI) is lower than this amount, your taxable income becomes $0.
Single (and can be claimed as a dependent): $3,100
Single (and cannot be claimed as a dependent): $8,000
Married Filing Jointly: $16,050
Head of Household: $11,200
2. Tax Credits Wiped Out the Liability
New York offers several non-refundable credits that can reduce your tax bill all the way to zero (though they won't give you a refund for the excess). Common ones include:
Household Credit: A small credit for low-to-moderate-income filers.
Resident Credit: If you worked in another state (like NJ or CT) and paid taxes there, New York gives you a credit for those taxes so you aren't taxed twice. Often, this credit is large enough to completely offset what you would have owed to NY.
Child and Dependent Care Credit: If you have high childcare expenses.
3. Your Income is Non-Taxable in NY
Certain types of income are exempt from New York State tax even if they are taxed federally:
Social Security Benefits: NY does not tax Social Security.
Pension Exclusion: If you are over 59½, you can exclude up to $20,000 of qualified pension and annuity income.
Government Pensions: Most NYS, local, and federal government pensions are 100% exempt.
These are the most common reasons that may or may not fir your particular case.

No one has used a 1040EZ since 2017. Everyone uses federal Form 1040.
W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return. Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond. Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.
If you are preparing a return for a state that lets you deduct job-related expenses, the information will flow from your federal return to the state return, so enter it in Federal>Deductions and Credits>Employment Expenses>Job-Related Expenses

It doesn't in your case. SIMPLE and SEP IRAs are types of retirement plans, but don't apply to your situation. You should answer no and move on.

I graduated college in Fall 2025. I still received a 1098-T form from my school.
As stated before, I have never claimed this or any other credit on my tax return before.
This time was not caused by a gap year or anything, just the amount of time it took me to gather the 120 credits to graduate.
TurboTax states that I am eligible for $1,000 toward my refund for this credit. Is this true?
I want to ensure that my understanding is correct before I continue filing my return.
All help and feedback is greatly appreciated!

Not sure what you are trying to do. A self employment business return goes on schedule C in your personal 1040 tax return. You don't file it separately. Do you mean you need to do a tax return for a different person? Sorry Online is only good for 1 return per account. And you need a different email address for each account. You can start another return in TurboTax Online by: Logging out if you are in your account Choose what TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/compare/online Create your account screen Set up a new login for the second return Start working on the new return Or use the Desktop program. The Desktop program can do unlimited returns and efile 5 for free. And you can use any Desktop version, they all have the same forms. So you could use a lower version than you might need in the Online version.
