For the 2025 tax year, how do I know that the TurboTax software is programmed to allow for the 75% deduction for pensions. I have my taxes done but think the amount owed to MI is too much.

Thank you.

Follow these steps:

Locate your MI Form 4884
Look at line 27 for the 75% deduction

If you don't see the 75% deduction:

Be sure the source of your pension is eligible for the MI deduction, double check your 1099-R entries
The standard MI deduction may be higher than the pension subtraction and therefore, it isn't used.

To view your entire return and all worksheets:

For online:
1. On the left side, select Tax Tools
2. Select Print center
3. Select Print, save or preview this year's return
4. If you have not paid, select pay now.
In the desktop program, switch to forms mode.
