You have not told us if you are using online TurboTax or desktop download--which affects some of the replies you need. What software are you using?

If your daughter makes under 50K and all she has is a W2 she shouldn't have any problem filing federal and state returns for free. The online program starts with the free version and only increases to a higher cost version if additional forms need to be added. Be aware - sometimes there are things deducted on a W2 that add forms to the return and can cause her to lose the free version. The program will announce if it needs to upgrade.

The minimum amount to file in 2024 is $14,600.

Your program comes with the ability to file five returns. But they all need to be on your account.

You enter the sale of a home at the bottom of the wages and income section of your federal return under "Less Common Income". Because this is a vacation home and not your primary residence you're going to pay taxes on any profit.

Moving expenses are no longer deductible on the federal return. They may be for your state.

Employee expenses are no longer deductible on the federal return. They may be for your state.
