Form 8828 is not supported in TurboTax.  You can download a copy of Form 8828 at the IRS website https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8828.pdf.  The link below has a list of forms that are not included in TurboTax.

TurboTax does not support Form 8828 Recapture of Federal Mortgage Subsidy.

 

The form cannot be filed separately.  For more information, see here and here.

Enter the amount from Form 8828 on line 17b of Schedule 2, Form 1040 (Recapture of federal mortgage subsidy).

 

You will need TurboTax CD/Download.

 

How do I switch from TurboTax Online to TurboTax CD/Download?

 

  1. Tap Forms in the top right
  2. Select 1040/1040SR Wks in the left column
  3. Find Schedule 2 – Additional Taxes and go to Part II line 17b
  4. Enter the amount from Form 8828
  5. Tap Step-by-Step in the top right to return to the interview mode

Mail your return with your hand prepared Form 8828, Use certified mail with return receipt so you have proof the IRS received your return.

No, it isn’t. TurboTax doesn’t include form 8828 in any of its products. Please see this Help Article for more information. 


You can access the instructions and form 8828 by going to: https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs-search?search=8828

I was referring to the post where the other employee said to enter it on Schedule 2 line 17 and then send it via paper mail. Is the schedule 2 included in the basic cd/download as previously mentioned?
