I am using the desktop version of TT Home & Business software. TurboTax software version 022 000 0599 on Windows 10.

When I try to see if I am eligible for the Minnesota working family credit, the TT interview tells me that I am not eligible and the form is not even generated.

When I print the form manually from minnesota's treasury department and follow the manual instructions, copying values from my turbo tax 1040 per minnesota instructions, I am indeed eligible.

How do I find out if there are known bugs and any workarounds?

Help! It's a $1200 difference to me.

I just spent several minutes on the phone with Minnesota's tax department. They also agree that I should receive the working family credit... so TURBO TAX you need to update your state software. It's worthless to me at this point, and will make next year's taxes unable to transfer accurately.

Ugh.

There are no known defects with this Credit. However, you aren't eligible if any of these apply:

You were a full-year nonresident
You file with an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
You do not meet the state income requirements based on your filing status or number of qualifying children (see Schedule M1WFC instructions for details)
You are another person's dependent
The IRS restricted you from claiming the federal EITC

See: Working Family Credit for more info. Also, review your dependent entries in the personal information section to help ensure the credit is properly calculated.

@HollyP Is there a way to send you the token number directly or is it OK to post it here? THANK YOU. I've sent it, just need to find a way to get you the token.
