Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) option
I need help locating where to unselect the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) option in TurboTax Home and Business for my 2023 return. I accidentally selected this option in both 2022 and 2023, which led to an audit for 2022. I now want to correct and amend the 2023 return. In both years, I claimed this on Form 1040, Schedule 1.
Thank,
kay

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) option
When you start to enter Job-Related Expenses you will come to a screen that says "Is your {occupation} work a part of one of these professions or situations?" It has five choices. See the screen shot below. You must have selected one of the first four choices, all of which allow employee business expenses to be deducted. You have to select the last option, "I wasn't in any of these professions or situations." That will remove the employee business expenses from your federal tax return.
If your state allows a deduction for employee business expenses, the expenses that you enter in the federal section will flow to your state tax return, even though you exclude them from your federal tax return. If your state does not allow them, you might as well not enter the expenses at all, or delete any that you did enter. I believe there are only 8 states that allow the deduction: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Hawaii, Maryland, Minnesota, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Huh? You don’t select that. That is built into your tax return. What exactly do you need to change? Turbo Tax applies all the tax rules you are entitled to.

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) option
On the 2022 Form 1040 audit, They have the following request from me:
We need information to verify income adjustments claimed on your From 1040, U.S. individual income Tax Return, Schedule 1, Additional Income and Adjustments to income. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) made eligibility changes to From 2106. Employee Business Expenses for tax years 2018 through 2025. You can claim employee business expenses on Form 2106 only if you’re: …. ( which I am not)
I did the same thing for 2023!
