Form 8959

[lianasworld]

I made very little money last year (roughly $17,000) as I was a full-time student. Despite this, TurboTax is trying to force me to buy DIY Deluxe because, according to them, I need to file form 8959. This is obviously nonsense, as the income threshold required for me to file this form is $200,000. I've checked box 5 over and over again on both of my W-2s and all of my numbers are correct. I'm extremely frustrated and confused. Is anyone else dealing with this?

Are you sure you did not leave out a decimal point in one of the box 5 entries?

Could there possibly be another W-2 that somehow was entered into TurboTax? Check the W-2 summary.

Try deleting all the W-2s and entering them again. Enter them manually, not by importing or taking a picture.

Did you enter any unreported tips?

Did you have any self-employment income?

Did you enter any income from a Form 1099-NEC or 1099-MISC, or any income for which you did not receive any form at all?
