For 2023 I contributed to a retirement 401k account through work.. with that in mind I would like to also deposit about 5,000 dollars into an IRA to lower my taxable income… am I allowed to do that since I’m contributing to a 401k at work or would I need to have my wife do that so I can deduct it?

In my K-1, I have a loss from box 2(Net rental real estate income(loss)) and a gain from box 10(Net section 1231 gain). When TurboTax generated Form 8582, it automatically put my net section 1231 gain into box 1a(Activities with net income). My understanding of section 1231 gain is that it's a capital gain of an investment which in my case is selling of a property. Please help me to understand why TurboTax put a captial gain in Passive Activity Loss Limitations(Form 8582). Thanks, Long

Understand Federal deductions have changed, but what about NJ.Especially commercial parking costs that are not $ supported by employer.Most information is for self-employed or chair renters.

On the finish and file page you confirm pay with federal return.  Then it confirms elligibility to pay with Federal Return.  Then confirm payment and it goes right back to review.   I tried different browser.  I cleared cookies and catch.  Also tried from my phone.  All do the same thing.

can I file through turbotax my 2022 return now

I am reviewing old tax records. I assumed entering the information from the W2 for 401k contributions would be part of its process. I cannot find how 2020 accounts for catch-up contributions. It keeps telling me I contributed excess.

Can someone please educate me on how to file form 8829? To my knowledge, it would be filed with my personal tax return. I have a DBA and EIN and would like to use the home office deduction to set up an office in a new apartment to establish my business. The amount of rent paid in the previous year equals $17,307.  Will this expense be written off in total and credited to me? How much money will this deduction save me? How will this deduction help me save on my monthly rental payments for the upcoming year? 

I did a few federal and state e-filing for 10 of my employees, just found out the state abbreviation I put in box 6 was incorrect for the majority of them. Since one employee lives in CA and the rest lives in KS. I switched to CA for that one employee, and I forgot to switch back to KS for the everyone else that came after. Do I have to refile for everyone with the wrong state abbreviation? there's NO state tax withheld

Does Mint support a Bi-Monthly (Bi-Weekly) Budget? For example, we get paid twice a month, on the 1st and the 15th. We have 1st-15th bills and we have 16th-31st bills. It’s not a simple Monthly Budget for us and we need to know how much we have spent and have remaining for the 1st half of the month, and the same for the last part of the month. Essentially, we need to track certain budgets against the 1st-15th, and the other budgets against the 16th-31st. Does Mint support this? I do this with my own spreadsheet now, but would appreciate using an online tool to manage this if it's out there.

What is the maximal amount a self employed 1099 contractor can contribute to retirement accounts?What times of retirement accounts can 1099 self employed contractor contribute to beyond Rollover IRA or Roth IRA?

Are property taxes and mortgage payments deductible for 2023 fiscal year for primary residence?

Does Mint allow setting up a monthly budget/spending plan and then tracking how close that is to reality throughout the month? I tried Simplifi and amazingly after I set up my monthly spending plan, it was showing the amounts spent on water, sewer, trash, gas as zero because they're inside the rent payment, which I have split out into the proper categories. That makes that tool unusable. Does Mint have this problem too?

Apr 13, 2016 / By Zina Kumok    We all want to be more responsible with our money. While that sounds great in theory, it can get confusing once you start to break things down. Emergency funds, savings funds and debt all need to be addressed regularly, but trying to figure out a consistent method leaves some paralyzed with indecision.   One of the problems that tends to trip people up is prioritization. Allocating your finances to the right place is crucial, but how do you decide how much to put towards any one purpose? How can you cut through the confusion and get your finances on the right track? Read on for our tips.   1.   Save a Mini-Emergency Fund   You need to save at least a partial emergency fund first. If you don’t have one and have to face a crisis, you’ll probably need to borrow the money. That means you’ll end up in more debt – whether you owe a family member or a credit card company.   A basic emergency fund should be arou

I received an e-mail today stating my "debt in collections" went up to $238, when I had no idea I had any debt beyond my student loans. When I followed the link in the e-mail from Turbo, it lists the debt as "Other" with no explanation or link as to where I actually owe the money. Is there any way I can figure out to whom I owe this, or if it's a fraudulent charge? First image is from the e-mail, the second is from the Turbo website
