Hi! Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the steps you prescribe don't solve the issue.
When I search "other income", the only "jump to" I can do is to the 1099-MISC, which just takes me to a screen asking if I have one, which I don't.
Alternatively, when I click on "Edit/Add" next to the Miscellaneous Income section, I see no entered income and every category just says 'Start".
Any ideas?
If your other income is not listed in the summary screen as stated above, then you can figure out the source by looking through your 1040 forms.
Please follow these instructions:
Once you figure out the source, you can then use the search tool at the top of the page to get to the input screen to review or delete the item.
Hi! Thanks for the reply!
The issue was excess housing allowance. Schedule 1, Line 8 is blank. Thanks for helping me figure it out.
So frustrating!
I was tallying up the total we spent on our house, because that's what the form is for.
I did NOT mean that I was trying to claim that much over, but just to prove that we met the amount we were claiming.
That field didn't make any sense.
In previous years, you added a total, then there was the qualifying amount, and it picked the lower of the two. I'm not sure why the program didn't work like that this year.
Thanks so much for finding that.
