Federal Review screen

On the federal review page the amounts shown for Total Income and Deductions do not match the return.

The taxable income does match the return.

I cannot find the amounts for these discrepancies.

If you are looking at a summary screen or review screen those show the full amount (like from 1099R and SS) as income and lump a lot of stuff together. You need to check the actual 1040 form and make sure it's right. Before filing you can preview the 1040 or print the whole return

That seems like a good explanation! I haven’t taken the time yet to go back and add the figures again, but I will do that. I’m guessing it’s because not all of SS benefits are used.

thanks!

SS? Social Security is on line 6a and any taxable amount on 6b.

Up to 85% of Social Security becomes taxable when all your other income plus 1/2 your social security, reaches:

Married Filing Jointly: $32,000

Single or head of household: $25,000

Married Filing Separately: 0

Check line 1040 Line 25d to make sure yourt W2 number match up. The same thing happened to me.

Look for the discrepancies on your Turbo Tax worksheets.
