I do not want to use Form 8862 (EIC) so I deleted it from my return however the figures are still present and I cannot delete them - how to I now remove the figures from my return OR how do I solve this problem?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
TurboTax must compute the Earned Income Credit if applicable.
You cannot remove it from a return the software has processed.
When I look at the forms on my return, the 8862 is not there (I have not filed yet) but all the information for the credit is on the return. If I file it like this, I know it will be rejected because the actual 8862 is not there.
I have a strange feeling that I would have to start the return all over again from the beginning in order to have that form appear - I deleted it and I understand that there is no way to get it back - so, what now?
Please try the Form 8862 entry procedure on the How do I enter Form 8862? page.
You’ll proceed through a few screens until you get to the Do any of these uncommon situations apply? page.
Then you’ll check the box next to the statement I/we got a letter/notice from the IRS telling me/us to fill out an 8862 form to claim the Earned Income Credit.
John: I tried and I cannot get to #6 - it simply says I qualify and proceeds with the return. When I check the forms list for my return, it shows EIC worksheet and Earned Income WKS but no 8862.
I called Turbo Tax and spoke with an expert who helped me retrieve this form - !
