In your Ohio interview, go to "Take a look at Ohio credits and taxes".

 

On this screen, look down to the subheading "Personal, home and family credits", then look for "Scholarship donation credit" and click on Start (or whatever the button says). You can enter your credit on the next screen.

Hi Bill,

 

I am using Turbo Tax Premier 2024 and under State Taxes I can't find Personal, Home and Family Credits anywhere.

 

Also under Federal Taxes (Deductions & Credits) I can't find Personal, Home and Family Credits either.

 

Do you think Turbo Tax Premier 2024 forgot to add this option?

 

I really want to give my (SGO) School $750 dollars but I can't where to enter it in Turbo Tax Premier 2024.

 

Thanks for you help,

You won't see that section in the Federal section; itis only in the Ohio state interview.   As you go through the OH return, you will come to the screen Bill references above.

Hi Dawn,

I am using Turbo Tax Premier 2024.

Under STATE TAXES - I only have the following Sub Headings:

RETIREMENT

MEDICAL

EDUCATION

BUSINESS

MISCELLANEOUS

 

 I don't have Following Sub Heading:

PERSONAL, HOME AND FAMILY CREDITS

RETIREMENT CREDITS

BUSINESS & INVESTMENTS CREDITS 

ETC,

 

I wonder if the Turbo Tax people somehow forgot to put this information in Turbo Tax Premier 2024.

 

Thanks for all your help so far into this problem.

Where is the Personal, Home and Family Credits section in Ohio Turbo Tax Premier 2024?

You haven't continued through the state section far enough. 

You are looking at the "Here's the income that Ohio handles differently" screen 

Continue by selecting "Done with income"

Continue to the "Take a look at Ohio credits and taxes" screen

Hi Bill,

 

Yes, I wasn't going far enough through Ohio tax questions.

 

I found the heading Personal, Home and Family Credits then I found Scholarship Donation Credit.

 

Thanks for your help.
