Childrens' AGI

VAtaxpayer6 — Thu, 02 Apr 2020 21:42:22 GMT

While completing my State return in Turbotax Deluxe desktop, I skipped a question about the amount of my childrens' AGI. When I went back to input the amounts, I could no longer find the question (I looked thru all forms and attempted going thru the return again). I have 2 dependent college age kids who each had incomes < $10,000. Should I worry about not completing this question? I'm assuming that skipping the question made it appear the amounts were $0.

For your state return, to reset the question the easiest thing to do is actually to delete the return and start it over - it actually only takes a few minutes. I think you are probably talking about the California Head of Household test question but I can't be sure.

However, deleting the state will reset the question for all states and is fairly simple to do. The state will re-populate the bulk of the answers from your federal data and you will just have the state-specific questions to complete. It does not delete your primary data.

Follow these steps to reset your state tax return:

Click on State in the menu on the left.
Click Delete beside your state when it appears in the center of the screen.
Confirm that you wish to delete the state.
Add the state back in, which will reset the program so that you can answer the question.
