Question

When filing joint NYS return, TurboTax Desktop disallows spouse's SSN in IT-226 (ECEP Wage Credit), Sched A, Col A (Employee SSN). Is there a fix for this?

I'm using TurboTax Deluxe Desktop for 2025. This was not an issue in previous years' versions of TurboTax.

Have you entered a W2 with your spouse's social security number on it with wages in excess of $40,000? If they don't have a W2 in excess of $40,000 then they don't qualify for the credit. Make certain that any entry that you made into the W2 section wasn't accidentally assigned to you instead of you spouse.
