When will an update be available for the Home Office Deduction not carrying over the info from Schedule C Line 29 to Form 8829 lines 15-36? I am using the Desktop version on iMac.

    We have tested Schedule C Home Office Deduction entry but are unable to reproduce the experience you have seen. It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2024" file to test this issue further.

     

    If you would be willing to send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information, please follow these instructions: 

     

    In TurboTax Desktop, open your return and go to Online in the TurboTax header. (On a Mac computer, choose Share or Help.)

    1. Choose Send Tax File to Agent.
    2. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click Send on this screen and wait for the Token number to appear.
    3. Reply to this thread with your Token number (including the dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you.
    4. You may wish to snap a screenshot to post instead of the actual number.
    5. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important.

    We will then be able to see the same experience you are having. If we are able to determine the cause, we'll reply here and provide you with a resolution.

    Please try posting a screenshot of the token from your return. The Community filters see the number before the dash as private information and blank it out.
