Jury duty pay doesn't flow to Schedule 1

Click — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 10:48:14 GMT

I went through the Jury Duty Pay topic in Step-By-Step. This flowed to Other Income Statement line 1h. The total on Other Income Statement reflects it. However, Schedule 1 line 8h doesn't show it like it should and it is not reflected in the total.

I work around this by entering as a Form 1099-MISC, but this seems like a bug.

Try it again later in the month. There may be an update that will fix it. There are many updates to come. Be patient.

Having used TurboTax for decades, I'm well aware of that. My post was to bring this to someone's attention in case it hasn't been tracked yet, and in particular to any other community member who may see the same issue and wonder if it is something they are doing.

Just tested using my Premier desktop edition for Windows. The Jury Duty Pay shows on Schedule 1 Line 8h. The total from Schedule 1 Part I Line 10 flows to Form 1040 Line 8.

Thanks for trying to repro. Interesting, I am using same edition and get different results. Did you enter this by doing the (one screen) step-by-step for Jury Duty Pay? That's what's not working for me. It puts the amount on Other Income Statement but it doesn't flow to Schedule 1. line 8h.

@Click Yes, I used the interview section under Wages & Income>Less Common Income>Jury Duty

Make sure that your software is updated. Click on Online at the top of the desktop program screen. Click on Check for Updates.

I have automatic updates enabled, but I checked to be sure and yes, up-to-date.

The only thing that I can think of is that at one point I put an override amount on Schedule 1 line 8h when doing estimates in December. But I deleted that entry and processed through the Step-By-Step instead.

Again, it's not keeping me from doing anything. I can just enter a 1099-MISC and get the correct result. But it is weird that it works for you and not for me.

@Click

Yes, an override on the actual Schedule 1 will block it if you used an override. Even if you remove the $$ in that field manually, you need to actually cancel the override. (I tested it)

(But, of course, I can't know if this is actually your issue...)

___________________________________________

Try this:

Go back to Forms Mode, and open the Schedule 1 (NOT the Other income worksheet)

Go down line 8h and rt-click on it and select "Cancel Override"

That worked for me, and the value form the "Other income" sheet came thru immediately.

Thanks for the suggestion. You are correct that even though the override entry is cleared, the override remains as the context menu offers "Cancel override". A side note, whether there is an entry or not Review isn't finding the override, which I thought it would. Neither does Form Errors. So how does one find overrides? Also, the amount in the overridden 8h (when it has a value) doesn't contribute to the other income total on Schedule 1 like it should. Weird.

So here's something else I tried while playing. The Jury Duty Pay is the only item that is on Other Income Statement or Schedule 1 for either taxpayer. So I deleted both forms, then went back to step-by-step and re-entered Jury Duty Pay. I was thinking that would surely clear out any issues on those two forms. However, it didn't. The amount entered in step-by-step appears on Other Income Statement, but not on Schedule 1.

An update: Your suggestion ultimately solved the issue. While I had cleared the override on Other Income Statement and Schedule 1, there remained an empty overridden field on 1040 Worksheet! There was no entry in that field anymore, but as you said, the override was still in effect. I suppose the logic is that "no entry" could very well be something someone wanted to override to.

Once I cancelled the override on 1040 Worksheet, even though empty, everything flowed.

Thanks!

oooooh...Hope you didn't override other fields, and don't remember which.

Might actually be safer to start over with a new tax return if you overrode a bunch of times.

This is my mini version of a tutorial that should be in the downloaded program:

What is Forms Mode?

Forms Mode lets you view and make changes to your tax forms "behind the scenes."

If you're adventurous, you can even prepare your return in Forms Mode, but we don't recommend it. You may miss obscure credits and deductions you qualify for, and you may forget to report things that will come back and haunt you later.

Forms Mode is exclusively available in the TurboTax CD/Download software. It is not available in TurboTax Online.

Related Information:

If you want to play around with different figures and tax scenarios without affecting your original return you can ….

>>>In the TurboTax CD/Download software by creating a test copy:
1. Open your return in TurboTax.
2. From the File menu, choose Save As.
3. Give the copy a new name to distinguish it from the original (for example, by adding "Test" or "Example" to the file name).
4. Click Save. You are now safely working in the test copy and anything you do here will not affect the original.
https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1900642-how-to-make-a-test-copy-of-your-return

>> use the WHAT IF tool:
- Click Forms Icon (upper right of screen) or Ctrl 2 (forms view)
- Click on the Open Form Icon
- In the “Type a form name.” area type What-If (with the dash), click on the name of the worksheet - click on Open Form
- You will see the worksheet on the right side of the screen; enter the information right into the form
- To get back to interview mode - click on the Step-by-Step Icon (upper right of screen) or Ctrl 1

Once you have filed successfully … you can shut off the auto updater function and then save the return & .taxfile.

For Windows, up in the top menu, you can set the "Updater Preferences" to "Always Ask" or more commonly set to "I don't have an internet connection" (even if you do), and then you are not forced to update....and can manually force an update when you choose to do so. And then you can open the file(s) at any time with no forced upgrade.

But that's the Windows software.....not a MAC. For a MAC you cannot turn off the auto updater HOWEVER you can simply disconnect from the internet before opening the tax return.

It's always a good idea to make a backup copy of your tax data file, in case your original gets lost or corrupted. Here's how:

From the File menu in the upper-left corner of TurboTax, choose Save As (Windows) or Save (Mac).
Browse to where you want to save your backup.
- Tip: If you're saving to a portable device, save it to your computer first to prevent data corruption. Then, after completing Step 4, copy or move the backup file to your device.
In the File name field, enter a name that will distinguish it from the original tax file (for example, add "Backup" or "Copy" to the file name)
Click Save and then close TurboTax.
Restart TurboTax and open the backup copy to make sure it's not corrupted. If you get an error, delete the backup and repeat these steps.

If you make changes to your original tax return file, repeat these steps to ensure your original and backup copies are in-synch.

In the forms mode ... double click or right click on a box on a form to data source it ... sadly it doesn't work on all boxes.

What's the meaning of all the different colors in Forms Mode?

When you look at an onscreen tax form using Forms Mode, you might wonder why one figure is blue and the one next to it is red or black.

These colors indicate the source of that data.

Color	Meaning
Blue	You entered this data, either in the interview or Forms Mode.
Black	The program entered this data or calculated this amount.
Red	This data has either been overridden or is invalid (for example, a ZIP code that doesn't exist).
Red italics	You marked this amount as estimated.
Black italics	The program calculated this amount from an amount you marked as estimated.
Purple	This information has supporting details.
Aquamarine	This data was transferred over from last year.
Green	This data was imported from Quicken or QuickBooks.
Yellow fields (Windows)	Yellow fields allow user input. Anything you enter here shows up in blue.

PRIOR YEAR USE OF A SUPPORTING DETAILS WORKSHEET :

If you find you have a $0 in an entry field that cannot be changed … this issue is almost always one in which you used a "Supporting Details" (SD) sheet in that field in the prior year. What happens is that when you transfer in the prior year's data, the SD sheet is transferred too, but empty...and that causes the $0 to show up in many areas of the Step-by-Step mode interview....wherever the SD sheet was used before.

But when switching to Forms Mode, when you try to enter a $$ amount in a field where the SD sheet is attached, the SD sheet will pop up immediately, and you can either enter the $$ amount on that sheet, or delete the SD sheet entirely and avoid future issues (unless you really want the SD sheet)

Sometimes, when you see the $0 in Step-by-Step, you can just

a) double-click on the field and the SD sheet will pop up. But I've seen that doesn't work in all cases.

b) Another way is to click on the field, then go up to the menu..."<<Edit<<<Add Supporting Details"....then the SD sheet pops up and you can use it, or delete the SD sheet entirely and then the regular field will work properly.

c) OR click on the problem field, then switch to Forms Mode to make that entry

No, I (almost, apparently) never use override and maybe meant to mark estimated instead (which I do a lot).

I'm surprised that review didn't find the override, however it is said Final Review will.
