THERE IS A BUG IN YOUR SOFTWARE. HOW DO I REPORT IT?

TurboTax Deluxe Federal and State

Colorado Form 104 Line 5 Business Meals Add Back

According to the instructions for Colorado Form 104-line 5, "Enter on line 5 the full amount of any federal deduction claimed for business meals on line 24b of Schedule C of Form 1040. Also include on line 5 any business meals addition from line 10 in Column A on any Colorado K-1 (DR 0106K) issued to you by a partnership or S corporation."

 

I entered 0 on line 5 of my Colorado Form 104, as I have no federal business meals deduction on line 24b of Schedule C of Form 1040 and I did not receive and Colorado K-1s from any partnerships or S corporation.

 

When running the review of my Colorado tax return, TurboTax flags the Form 104-line 5 entry of 0 and provides the following message:

Check This Entry

Form 104: Business meals deducted needs to be a positive number greater than 0.

 

If there is no business meals deduction on Form 1040 Schedule C or any from Colorado K-1s, then why must the value entered on Form 104 line 5 be a positive number greater than 0 if the actual deduction add back is 0.

It should be a blank instead of a zero.

THERE IS A BUG IN YOUR SOFTWARE. HOW DO I REPORT IT?

IN:  TurboTaxBusiness 2024 (1041 trust)

General Info / Beneficiaries.

Finds 2023 forms. Loads Beneficiaries Incorrectly.

1.  Can Not Correct,  Reverts to old form..

2.  Can not add new beneficiary without error.

Tried deleting all and recreating as new beneficiary.

New beneficiary does not appear.  Is replaced (seemingly randomly)

by beneficiary from 2023.  Program is unusable as is.

You should clear the cache and cookies on your computer and re-boot it, then start over, as that sounds like a computer issue.

Clearing Cache and cookies does nothing.  It is a program bug.  I found a work around.  Go into the forms rather than step-by-step and eliminate all k1's and references to beneficiaries.  Then g back into step-by-step.  This time the beneficiaries will be created correctly.  In general in trusts the beneficiaries do not change from year to year, but occasionally they do, and this creates a massive headache in the current version of TurboTax, but the workaround above fixes the problem.  Please let me know when the code has been corrected as well and I will download the upgrade.

TurboTax 2025.47.18.22 - Version WinPerRelease 025.000.0235 [restored]

 

I believe there may be an issue with how TurboTax handles the 2025 Roth 401(k) contribution limits for taxpayers age 60–63.


TurboTax flagged my 2025 Roth 401(k) contributions as exceeding the limit, even though I was 63 years old on 01/01/2025 (DOB: 01/01/1962). For 2025, the correct IRS limit for someone age 60–63 is $34,750, which includes the SECURE 2.0 “super catch‑up.”


My W‑2 Box 12 Code AA shows $34,750 contributed, and my plan provider (Voya) confirmed this is the correct maximum for 2025. There is no excess contribution.


It appears TurboTax may not be applying the age‑60–63 enhanced catch‑up limit correctly. I wanted to report this in case it helps improve the software.


Thank you.

I did a test case in TurboTax for someone with a birthdate of January 1, 1962 and confirmed what you saw, which is that the software applied $31,000 as the upper limit for the 401(k) contribution.

 

I tried another test case in TurboTax for someone with a birthdate of January 2, 1962 and it correctly applied the $34,750 limit for the enhanced catch-up contribution.

 

IRS regulations will commonly consider January 1 to be the end of the prior year - one such provision is someone turning 65 on January 1, 2026 may file a 1040-SR return for 2025 and also be eligible for the additional standard deduction at that age.  Because of that, it's entirely possible that someone born on January 1, 1962 may be considered to be 64 years old in the eyes of the IRS.  If this is true, then the limit stated in the TurboTax software for contributions would be correct.
