I just tried a mock return using information similar to yours and was able to get a Roth IRA contribution to take for both spouses.  I did see a screen saying that my mock couple didn't qualify for an IRA deduction, but this makes total sense because a Roth IRA contribution isn't deductible on a tax return.   I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to make Roth IRA contributions for both of you from the information that you gave.  If you still want assistance, I recommend sending us a diagnostic file which is a copy of your tax return that has all of your personal information removed. You can send one to us by following the directions below:   TurboTax Online:   Sign into your online account. Locate the Tax Tools on the left-hand side of the screen. A drop-down will appear. Select Tools On the pop-up screen, click on “Share my file with agent.” This will generate a message that a diagnostic file gets sanitized and transmitted to us. Please provide the Token Number that was generated in the response.   TurboTax Desktop/Download Versions:   Open your return. Click the Online tab in the black bar across the top of TurboTax and select “Send Tax File to Agent” * This will generate a message that a diagnostic copy will be created.  Click on OK and the tax file will be sanitized and transmitted to us. Please provide the Token Number  (including the dash) that was generated in the response.   *(If using a MAC, go to the menu at the top of the screen, select Help, then, “Send Tax File to Agent”)  

Even though it shows up as income on the first page,if you have capital gains or qualified dividends the tax on line 16 is not taken from the tax table but is calculated separately from schedule D.  The tax will be calculated on the Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet.  It does not get filed with your return.    In the online version you need to save your return as a pdf file and include all worksheets to see it.

@rooksmith    Make a second test-file copy of that file.....using Save-As to create a special name   Then in the second copy...switch to Forms Mode. Then Open and delete the Schedule B. Doing that deletes all your 1099-INT,1099-DIV, 1099-OID forms too. ......then return to the Interview and see if you can enter them now.   That will tell you if that extreme step will work or not. ________________ If not, and on Windows computer, check for any waiting, and not fully installed Windows updates...those are known to block TTX functions if not completed.   Reboot even if no OS updates are pending, just in case that clears the problem.

I don't see dependents listed under your household.  I see a message stating that my child doesn't qualify as my dependent.  I need to go back and claim my child as a dependent.  How do I change the status of my dependent?  It's my year to claim my son but I messed up and thought it wasn't.  So I need to go back and change it.

Thank you for your reply.  I misspoke about the trust.  It is a family limited partnership.  They technically ended the partnership so they could make a fresh start with the new family members who have inherited ownership.  None of the assets were sold/dissolved etc., they are all going to be in the new partnership it will be transparent to us.  How do we handle this on turbo tax?  Do we say the partnership has ended?  It seems like we have to say yes because our K-1 is checked as a final k-1.  But then we get into questions about was it sold.  Maybe we should answer yes, then say disposition was not via a sale?  Our K-1 does not give any information about this.
