Form 8853p2

[Tampuhaw]

I am about ready to e file my returns but I was asked to input information from Form 8853 p2.  I paid my  long term care insurance premium for the year 2021 and I input that amount on the return. 

I am having a problem with proceeding to e file my return  because I do not know what to do about Form 8853.  Turbo Tax program is asking me to answer  form 8853p2.

I HAVE NOT received any money from my Long Term Care Insurance. I never filed a claim with  Long Term Care Insurance.

What shall I do ?

If TurboTax is generating form 8853 it either thinks that you received money from your LTC plan or that you have an Archer MSA from your employer.  

You need to go back through your entries for your LTC payments.  Make sure you entered them as premium payments and not reimbursements.

It is a good idea to first clear your cache and cookies - which means removing all of the temporary programs that can gum up your web browser.  If that doesn't work, try using a different web browser.

You are probably better off having someone walk through the return with you to look at your entries so I recommend getting live expert help.

However, that requires upgrading your product which may be an expense you don't want.  In that case you can call an expert and ask questions over the phone.
