On Schedule F during error check it says that I need to fill in the At Risk information Boxes in Line 37. The At Risk boxes are in Line 36. More of an issue is that my farm shows a profit on Line 34. The directions say that you only fill-in the At Risk boxes in Line 36 if there is a loss.
You're right, and those at-risk boxes aren't required when there is a net profit - but that includes any related dispositions. If you have a loss on the disposition of a farm asset(s) that exceeds the line 34 profit then one of the at-risk boxes must be checked.
TurboTax error in my 2018 Deluxe tax file cannot be corrected by User, due to its Software calculation making an erroneous assumption about yearly Mortgage points deducted: Some years ago TurboTax software stopped pulling forward on my Schedule A, Home Mortgage Interest Worksheet, the yearly amount for amortized points, so many years were missed, and now, I want to fill in the proper Line 9c value, NOT the incorrect software calculated value that is way too high because 2018 apparently assumed that all prior years were entered. TurboTax puts $331 in the Line 9c but the ACTUAL amount needs to be only $198 due to the interrupted software stoppage of what should have continued each year. How do I report this to TurboTax? How will I get an answer regarding how it can be fixed?
Most fields will allow you to Override what the program puts there. Place your cursor on the cell with the problem. Select Edit and Override frpm the top left menu. Or you can use Ctrl +D. Hope this helps
I am using the premier version of turbotax. On the New York State tax for 2016 there is a problem with reporting New York Long Term Care Insurance Premiums.
The entry fields as for data on Partners in Partnership, S Corps, Beneficiaries of Estates. Nothing at all about credits for Long Term Care premium. Is a correction forthcoming?
No. Long term care insurance premiums are not entered for the state level detail. TurboTax automatically will carry those to the state when you enter it in the federal interview, even if you will not be itemizing your deductions.
If you have followed the steps in this article about Where do I enter my long term care premiums? and are still getting unexpected results, I think it would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2019" file that is experiencing this issue. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions:

I'll be able to open TurboTax with your numbers but not your personal information. That may help diagnose the issue.
I entered 630 as a fourth quarter estimated tax with a date 12/5/2019. It was not entered on Maryland tax return. Possible the software figured it was entered on 1/15/2020. Maryland comptroller gave the correct return since they knew I had paid it in 2019.
Estimated payments for both federal and state are entered on the federal return. You don't have to enter anything on the state return as the amounts entered on the federal return relating to state flows to the state return.
4 state estimated tax values were entered on the federal with the last 630 with a date 12/05/2019. only 3 were transferred to the Maryland state return. I figure that the December return was not transferred. There is a blank local entry spot with a date 1/15/2020. I don't have any local values. My worry is that next years software will include the missing 630 on my 2020 return. Thankfully Maryland corrected your error and gave the correct return.
Turbotax transferred health premium amount from Federal 1040 to my Ohio Healthcare worksheet correctly. But the Ohio worksheet listed in twice...in line 3 and then again line 4. This caused the healthcare premium on the Ohio Sch A to double which resulted in an erroneous deduction.
If you are using Desktop TurboTax go to forms mode and delete Health Care Expenses and MSA Wks from your Ohio return.
Then go through the program again and make sure that the correct amount shows on the screen for Premiums Paid Out-of-Pocket. That number should match what is on your federal return.
If you are using online TurboTax, go through the steps below:
Use the Chrome browser
Click the three dots in the upper right corner
Select Settings
Privacy and Security
Clear browser data for all time
Then sign in to TurboTax on the Chrome browser
Go to Tax Tools, Tools, Delete a Form and delete Health Care Expenses and MSA Wks
Go through the program again and make sure that the correct amount shows on the screen for Premiums Paid Out-of-Pocket. That number should match what is on your federal return.
TurboTax 2020 is showing I owe 25% more in Federal taxes than my total Taxable Income for the year. State shows accurate taxes (VA). Bug?
@dgreekva My guess would be a typo in W2 box 1 wages. Please review your entries.
I appreciate the suggestion. I didn’t outline the issue well, sorry, however I'm not a W2, I own my own business. This was an issue of Tax Law changes and a patch update from Intuit corrected the issue. Thank you again for responding, it is truly appreciated and would have started a potential dialog in search of the issue had the patch not cleaned up the change to tax law. Yet another 2020 ‘fun’ tax thing for us all to experience.
Thank you!
I believe there is a bug in TT2021 Premier in the FEDERAL ASSET ENTRY WORKSHEET. It seems that sometimes when I check NO in the Elect OUT of Special Depreciation Allowance it will stay NO but also some times it automatically goes back to YES.
My LLC had a net profit of $6536 Sch C Line 31. Turbo Tax entered $0 in Line 13 (Qualified Business Income Deduction) in 1040-SR and $923 in Line 23 (other taxes).
How can QBID be $0?? Did TurboTax make a mistake??
My Iowa return does not recognize the entering of our quarterly payments, although I've checked back twice and it has been entered correctly on the turbotax data entry. My completed return (print version) shows $0 in the quarterly payment area, and the bottom line for tax due incorrectly adds in our quarterly payments as though they were not paid. This also then includes a penalty amount due. It seems obvious there is a software error for State of Iowa returns. This did not happen in our 2021 TurboTax filings.
It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2022" file for the return that is experiencing this issue. Also, is Iowa the only state return?
