Thanks much. I get nervous when I don't see peeps.

Miss both of them.

In the same place where you turn off those annoying blue triangles that pop up tons of unwanted information every time you mouse over them.

I am talking about adding back the scholarship or pell grant income, which exceeds the tuition amount at least as it is reported on the 1098-T, so that the AOTC can be claimed. Your OP discusses parents taking the AOTC.

I don't have anything to offer, but I wanted to say 'Good Luck'. You've got this!

Are you adding the scholarship income back in to the parents' income so you can claim the AOTC? I'm not sure I'm following your post.

This is fixed for Kansas. Glory be!

I just tried deleting the estimates and then adding the form back. Have 'paper check by mail' marked. Aaargh. Nothing.

I have mine marked 'pay by check', and it still isn't creating. Thoughts? Thanks to all for helping.

Thank you. Is it just a program glitch? I just called tech support, and they act like they've never heard of it. They told me that perhaps my state hadn't released the forms for efile. I have been assigned a 'ticket number' or some such thing. Eeegads. What a hassle, and it will be a hassle next year when we have to re-enter the estimate amounts.

Do you scan all statements from multiple brokerage accounts in to 1 .pdf and attach it to the 8949 (which only allows 1 attachment), or do you scan the statements separately and attach all but 1 under 'other'? Or . . . is there a better way? Thanks much!

I know there was a thread about this, but I can't find it searching. We really cannot create State efiles if there are estimates? Aaargh . . . it's 19 February!

I hate this form with the power of 1000 suns. Please post the customization list. I hope I'm smart enough to duplicate it in my software. Thanks so much!

This is what I did. Can't spend any more time on $66 of FICA. Thanks much!

Okay . . . I loved Judy's idea, but it didn't work. The SSA site is giving me the same error message. My client can't be the first person to whom this has ever happened. I suppose I could tell my client to refund the FICA withheld? Aaargh. I would really rather not do that, for multiple reasons.

I am working on W2s. Client hired a nanny that should have made over $2,000, so withheld FICA. Nanny terminated and did not meet the threshold. ATX won't let me efile the W2, because it is under $2,000, without changing the employee type, which I don't want to do, but I need to pay in the minimal ($66) FICA withheld. Anyone else ever run up against this? I googled but could not find a solution. Thanks!

Ordered. Thanks to all.

I have no idea, but I'm really sorry this happened to you.

Is it to correctly calculate the SS and Medicare? MAMalody is a good resource on this, as is JJStephens, although I'm not sure I've seen him around much this year.

So sorry. You are in my thoughts and prayers. (And your Mama, too, of course.)

I wouldn't expect a 1099-B on a stock sale from a closed corporation. I would report on 8949 with no 1099 received.

Active business owners are exempt from the 3.8% tax when selling property that is part of their business [Sec. 1411(c)(1)(A)(iii)]. Seem to me that this would qualify?

You mean you can't do that?

I'm DEFINITELY not speaking to you right now, but I gave you a 'like'.
