Booger Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Is there anybody else having a problem with this simple form? I've been preparing returns on a remote PC, and this credit is calculating just fine. I then save the return to a flash drive, and upload it to another PC. When I open the return on the second PC, this credit will not calculate. I've been manually inputing the Line 9 amount (the credit amount). Any ideas out there?

Terry D EA Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 May not have anything to do with it but, do both PC's have the same version of the software? If they don't then one of them may not calculate the forms properly. Don't know if this helps but just a thought. Terry D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booger Posted February 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks for your response, Terry D. Unfortunately, the other PC is about 42 miles away from the one I use to upload to. Will just continue to override Line 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxbrewster Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Either it is an update issue, or sometimes it helps to delete the form and add it back to the return...it has helped me before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booger Posted February 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks, taxbrewster. Remember when all we had to worry about was preparing the returns correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeke Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Thanks, taxbrewster. Remember when all we had to worry about was preparing the returns correctly? But then we still had to decide whether to type 2 or 3 carbons! z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneInAlabama Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 But then we still had to decide whether to type 2 or 3 carbons! z PLEASE don't say the word "carbon". I don't allow any of that kind of paper in my office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxtrio Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 I just had a similar problem with the 2441. HH 26,000 income plenty of day care. 2441 would show the max of 3,000 and show the .29 percentage.... but then zero for the credit??? Deleted, redo form, still problem. When I click on 9 of 2441 it takes me to the worksheet where it combines this years credit with day care paid prior years. Line one of the worksheet shows the 870 credit but down below on the worksheet line 3 shows zero? So I override line 3 or worksheet to the 870.00 ... then of course it carries to the 2441 and credit works. It efiled.. Anyone else have this problem? Worked fine a few days ago.
