Turbo Tax did not calculate my SSA Taxable portion accurately

I am reporting the same issue. Line 6b was blank on my return,  as I notice after getting a bill from IRS. Adding in the taxable portion of my Social Security pushed me into a higher bracket and owed quite a bit of extra $$

Same thing here with SS not being taxed properly (line 6b). Got the adjustment letter from the IRS with the adjusted amount of my refund.

Checked some previous years filed and they had amounts in line 6b.

This was a Turbotax screw-up as others have noted.

Not real happy Turbotax, may re-think this next year and check reviews before shelling out the cash.

@combridge 

 

It's happened quite a bit this year for some strange reason.

 

How did you enter your SSA-1099?   Did you enter it all manually?

.....or did you upload a snapped picture or PDF or your SSA-1099?

____________

i.e..... I was wondering if uploading picture/PDF somehow skipped the critical question about living in certain foreign countries?

The information posted by the moderators is that this is user error (the user missed the question); but the developers agree the interview was confusing and they will be changing it for 2025.    That's all we really know.

That is what we pay turbo tax to do.  Do you see that many other people had the same issue.  Turbo Tax should at least acknowledge their mistake, maybe even compensate users who had this problem.  I still have a bad taste in my mouth about this tax service and would not recommend them and I have been using turbo tax for a long time.

Information was put in manually.

Many times I just grab the "form", quicker and easier and rely on the "reviews/checks" to pickup and odd box I forgot to tick.

Like I said, been using Turbotax H&B since the late 90's.

Reading the reviews on Amazon were enlightening - didn't realize Turbotax had gone downhill so much.
