I am a volunteer firefighter in NYS and know that the state still has a tax credit of $200 per vol FF in the household. It requires a certain form (NY IT 245) and subsequently NY IT-201-ATT. Currently that is not supported by Turbo Tax 2023 (MAC) that I can find.
Can anyone help me out here?
New York Form IT-201-ATT Other Taxes and Tax Credits and Form IT-245 Claim for Vol Firefighters/Ambulance Workers Credit are both supported in the TurboTax state program for New York.
Go to this TurboTax website for federal and state forms availability -
That’s great news because it was in previous years. However I can’t find it in my program and none of the questions from it were asked this year.
As you work your way through the New York state tax return, look for a page titled, 'Take a look at New York credits and taxes'.
Under the You and Your Family category, click Start beside the line Active Volunteer Firefighter or Ambulance Worker to enter your details to claim the credit.
