You may.  Michigan Public School Retirement System should not report IRA/SEP/SIMPLE checked.   The TaxBook states:   Qualifying public benefits include distributions from the following sources:   The state of Michigan, Michigan local governmental units (Michigan counties, cities and school districts), Federal civil service. @KenSailor     

C'est un casse-tête à chaque année les frais médicaux admissibles au Qc seulement. Il n'y a pas cette possibilité avec Turboimpôt... j'ai déjà contacté le service à la clientèle par le passée et on me l'a confirmé. Il faut les mettre dans la section frais médicaux comme ceux admissibles au Canada, soumettre la déclaration du Québec et ensuite les enlever pour soumettre au Canada. Ou soumettre le Canada en premier et ensuite les ajouter et soumettre Québec. Comme j'imprime par la suite, je vais modifier mon annexe de frais médicaux au Canada pour le forcer à 0 pour imprimer et avoir des copies exactes comme ce qui a été transmis. 

Do you mean start the amended process and just screenshot the entry change reflecting the greater amount in 12W and then the main screen after you next through everything (it was the only change), showing box 1 was still the same?   Just curious what you meant by that.  Thank you for you answer and any additional information.

You can have your refund deposited in your bank account.  Please see the following article for assistance changing bank info for direct deposit. Keep in mind if you've already filed your tax return, it may be too late to change your bank account for direct deposit. 

Yes, your NYPSL-E (New York Paid Sick Leave) in Box 14 of your Form W-2 should go in the category "Other deductible state or local tax" or "Other (not classified)" for 2025.   Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.

Thank you for the reply, but Turbo doesn't allow me to enter in 0 when asked for ownership percentage. Error message says "Percentage must be greater than 0". Is this just for Turbo to help auto-calculate the allocation for expenses, so i could put 0.01 and then choose to do my own allocation? 

TurboTax generally only populates Form 8962, Part V if the Alternative Calculation for Year of Marriage actually reduces your tax liability. If your joint income is high enough that the alternative method doesn't save you money compared to the standard calculation, it will not complete the Part V.   For the calculation to work, income must be correctly allocated to the spouse who earned it. If all income is listed under one spouse or not properly distributed by month, the "behind-the-scenes" math may fail to trigger a benefit.  If your combined income exceeds 400% of the Federal Poverty Level, you typically have to repay the full Advance Premium Tax Credit (APTC) regardless of the marriage calculation, which might make the alternative calculation irrelevant.

The "Buy American" benefit you saw is a federal tax deduction established under the Working Families Tax Cuts (part of the "One, Big, Beautiful Bill" passed in 2025), which allows you to deduct up to $10,000 per year in interest paid on a loan for the motorcycle.    To qualify for this deduction, which is available for tax years 2025 through 2028, your Harley-Davidson must have a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) starting with 1HD, confirming its domestic assembly (not all models qualify, so double check this.)    This deduction can be claimed even if you take the standard deduction rather than itemizing.   You may find this article helpful: What is the vehicle loan interest deduction?

To contact Cross River Bank, you can call their  Main branch at 1-877-55CRB55 (Mon–Thurs, 9-AM–6 PM. Fri 9 AM–3 PM EST)  Or try 877-552-7255,  Selecting options 2 Then 0 for an operator.   

In the diagnostic copy of your return provided previously, entering the PTET on the federal K-1 Box 12 Code ZZ and choosing North Carolina from the state drop down automatically reported the withholding on NC S K-1 D-401S Part 4 Line 11. This amount flows through to Form D-400 Line 21(d) for the S-Corp. No manual entries were needed on the state return.   If the amount doesn't appear on NC K-1 Line 11, check the federal K1S Additional Info worksheet for Box 12 to confirm the state and amount were recorded properly.
