I am getting the same error on Turbotax online: North Carolina return rejection[D-400] If the Exception to Underpayment of Estimated Income is not null, Part 1 Line 26e cannot be blank. Zero is allowedReject Code NCD400-2146   However, I did not ask for an exception to underpayment and even when I say "no" to exception, an "E" shows up in that "exception to underpayment" spot (in previous year returns, there is no E in that spot).  Then Line 26e is not blank (which is what the error says).  It is 0, but NC keeps on rejecting it.  Turbotax support said there was a software issue where it was inappropriately inserting an E in the "exception to underpayment".  They said it should be fixed soon, but that was 2 weeks ago and my form still has the "E" and then 0 for line 26e, which is triggering the rejection.  I would really like to efile this and not file by mail.  Is there anything else that I can do to correct it?  I tried deleting the underpayment penalty worksheet and clearing cache like this post said but this did not work for me.  Thanks!

TurboTax does not handle line 20U. You're on your own, but here are the instructions from the 2025 1065 K-1 Section 743(b) adjustments. If the partnership reports a section 743(b) adjustment to partnership items, report these adjustments as separate items on Form 1040 or 1040-SR in accordance with the reporting instructions for the partnership item being adjusted. A section 743(b) adjustment increases or decreases your share of income, deduction, gain, or loss for a partnership item. For example, if the partnership reports a section 743(b) adjustment to depreciation for property used in its trade or business, report the adjustment on Schedule E (Form 1040), line 28, in accordance with the instructions for box 1 of Schedule K-1.   Code AJ. Excess business loss limitation. If the partnership has deductions attributable to a business activity, it’ll provide a statement showing your distributive share of the aggregate gross income or gain, and aggregate deductions, from the business activity of all the partnership’s trades or businesses. You can use this, along with other information, to figure any excess business loss limitation that may apply. See section 461(l) and Form 461 and its instructions for details.   read the 461 instructions of who must file https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i461.pdf 

Thank you for all your help. I just discovered this whole chain of communication regarding New York State nonresident  tax. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/your-employer-has-reported-this-correctly-new-york-has/01/496538#M22447

I'm not impressed that I have to check for umid file and then enter code to try to activate your product. I entered the activation correctly not once, not twice, but several times on turbotax.ca/activate with no success.   Please follow below steps for TurboTax Desktop 2025: Goto C:\ProgramData\Intuit Canada and check for umid file If umid file exists then open a file "C:\ProgramData\Intuit Canada\tt2025\TTConfig.ini" and enter UseCustomUMID=1 at the end of file Close and save TTConfig.ini Restart the TurboTax application TurboTax will launch as previously activated    If you are still not able to resolve this issue, please contact our phone support team for more assistance.      Now I get a message that says; "All available activations for that code have been used: Error code 603." I might be wrong but this leads me to believe the activation code I used for the product I purchased is the same activation code for products other people purchased. Are these codes not unique to each and every product?   I called [phone number removed] and as usual with every company, received an automated message. I chose send me an email. The email with the link I received is absolutely useless.

for the 1099-R do not use the  I need to prepare a substitute 1099-R option. it still wants an ein   you can enter as  misc income on Schedule 1 line 8z   for 1099 what happens if you leave all the payer info blank. in desktop deluxe i don't get an error when all is left blank. Online might be different as a dummy number 36-1234567 but i wouldn't use it unless TurboTax insists.       

so what is your question? You must file Form 8936 and the A. the basic version of online probably does not have this - only deluxe or higher.     from the IRS File Form 8936 with your tax return You must file Form 8936 when you file your tax return for the year in which you take delivery of the vehicle. This is true whether you transferred the credit when the vehicle was place in service or you’re waiting to claim the credit when you file.

When adding Business Expenses, you'll see several categories of expenses.  Click the down-arrow to see more in each category.  However, you can add your own worded expenses in the 'Miscellaneous Expenses' section.   @seven-root-steve     

there are two ways to be able to indicate take it as a credit. 1) by using the 1099 and linking to form 1116 or 2) entering the info through the 1116, for 1) go back to the 1099 and indicate you want to take it as a deduction or 2) delete form 1116   It's rare that the deduction is better than the credit. You must have more in itemized deductions than the standard deduction. It can happen if your marginal tax rate (the effect of taking a deduction) is higher than your average tax rate (the effect of taking it as a credit). As a deduction, you lose whatever would have been a carryover if taking the credit. Then again, most times the carryover or carryback is never useful.    

Assuming you have no earned income (wages), the interest is taxed in three distinct tiers:    Tier 1: Tax-Free Portion ($0 – $1,350) The first $1,350 is covered by the dependent's standard deduction for unearned income. Tax: $0 Tier 2: Child’s Tax Rate ($1,350 – $2,700) The next $1,350 is taxed at the child's individual marginal tax rate, which is typically 10%. Tax: ~$135 Tier 3: Parents’ Tax Rate ($2,700 – $15,000) The remaining $12,300 is taxed at the parents' highest marginal tax rate. For example, if the parents are in the 24% tax bracket, this portion would incur approximately $2,952 in tax In this example, total tax would be $3,087.  If your form 8615 is not computing appropriately, you could Delete it and step through your 1099-INT entry again.  Be sure you indicated you are being claimed as a Dependent in the Personal Info section.  Here's more info on Form 8615.   @parekhalpa07
