There is an error on the form line 7 of 8615- Qualified dividend and capital gain worksheet.  Line 8 says enter $39,375 if single and turbotax is automatically putting in only $3,700 which is incorrect and therefore overstating the taxes owed.  How can this be changed or fixed?

    I think TurboTax is correct:  in the 2019 Instructions for For 8615, on page 3 it says that when completing the QDCGT Worksheet for line 7 there are additional caps for line 8 and line 15 of the worksheet.  the cap for line 8 is (Form 8615, line 6 + $2,600) and for line 15 it is (Form 8615, line 6 + $12,950).
