We recommend that you complete your return, and continue to the page which says "Wrap Up Tax Breaks" or the "Final Review" page. Assuming you are taking the standard deduction, and it appears that you are, when you are at the aforementioned sections, the application should update to reflect the full amount of your charitable contribution (which must be in cash) of $600.
I have the same problem as mentioned above. I am not seeing the options you mentioned to "Wrap Up Tax Breaks" or in Final Review - The 1040 is showing $300 and TurboTax accepts that - We are married filing jointly. When I try to correct the form and enter $600 - it pops-up in review as an error.
Your assistance would be appreciated
You must pass the screen Based on what you just told us, the Standard Deduction is best for you so that TurboTax knows you qualify for the standard deduction.
Federal 1040 line 12b Charitable Cash Contributions under CARES Act can be entered at either:
Make sure you pass all the way through both Deductions & Credits and Other Tax Situations.
At Deductions & Credits, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Wrap up tax breaks.
At Other Tax Situations, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Let’s keep going.
Remove the entry at Donations to Charity in 2021 by deleting the entry.
Remove the entry at the screen Charitable Cash Contributions under CARES Act by entering a $0.
Nothing like a stupid workaround to handle a very stupid TT blunder for something that the IRS published many months ago. Quite pitiful.
