There's an error in 2024 Turbo Tax Deluxe in the medical mileage rate. This has happened in previous years and an answer in the Community says that it's just a typo and it's calculating correctly. But, that's not true for 2024. I have 823 miles. The Medical Worksheet shows that this amounts to $181. 823 x .22 = $181.06. So, indeed it's using 22 cents, which is the wrong rate. The Medical Worksheet should show 823 x .21 = $172.83 ($173 rounded). How do I fix it show that my return has the correct amount? Or is Turbo Tax going to fix this by the time we can file our returns??

The software is pretty useless this time of year and still uses a lot of the 2023 amounts. It was 22 cents in 2023, so I suspect they just haven't updated the amount yet.

Hi @AmeliesUncle,

So, are you saying that Turbo Tax (Intuit) will fix this before January 27, 2025, which is the date that the IRS portal is open for electronic filing?
