Linking of SE income to a QBI Worksheet has not yet been implemented.

Today's update added linking of Schedule C to a QBI Component worksheet, but for those with taxable income under $315,000 filing jointly or $157,500 for other filers the calculation is producing an erroneously inflated QBI deduction amount.  More updates are needed before the QBI deduction amount can be used by these individuals.

I just performed a what if simple scenario on a Schedule C with basic amounts below the threshold of an SSTB business to test TT and it worked correctly. The key is to link QBI worksheet business income component to a worksheet at the bottom of Schedule C additional information. I performed the calculation manually first to ensure I would get the correct result.

Has turbo tax been updated yet with the Qualified Business income deduction functionality?  When will we know if it is updated?

TurboTax for individual tax returns now appears to have all of the necessary functionality for the QBI deduction for all types of pass-through entities.  Be sure to go back and step through all of the entry pages for your particular pass-through entity so that the proper linkages are established.

Some problem here - no QBI despite starting over. What's the deal?

Crap software is the deal. They need to release the update/patch for the issue. My guess is they haven't yet. They get 2 more days before I print the returns, take them to a tax pro and have amex cancel my payment.
