When there is both Interest Income in screen 22.1 and State tax-exempt interest in screen 27.1, the data export does not send the federal interest income from K-1 line 5 to the personal return. It must be manually entered in the individual module. Why won't it populate this field?
as the program does not have a box for meals on the rental real estate screen 17, we have to enter as "other expenses" and create a statement. The 50% that is not deductible then must be entered on the M-2 and may not allocate correctly without special allocations
Lacerte's instructions for how to do this are outdated. It needs to happen on screen 43, either under Other Information Line 14 or Line 13 (backup withholding) -- and NOT screen 7. I called and spoke with an agent who gave me incorrect info. I had to figure this out myself. Unfortunately, the client withheld inside the trust (not my advice) and I need to push it out to the single beneficiary somehow.
Currently, you can export a PDF of a blank organizer or a CSV file of the questions and answers. I feel a PDF of the questions and answers would be more readable and a better source document to save.
Some states do not conform to the TCJA.On a 1040 the 2% itemized deductions flow to the State return because the input forms are created to do that.On a 1041, the 2% deductions do not flow automatically. Instead, a box must be checked. (Form 32) #1. A diagnostic to remind the preparer to check for 2% deductions would be VERY helpful. #2 Suggest setting up a 1041 in a similar fashion to the 1040. A separate input form for 2% deductions#3. Or use AI to assist the preparer in recognizing this situation. My hope is that AI become likes a reviewer with insights such as "I noticed that you are doing a CA 541. Remember that CA does not conform to the TCJA. Here are some areas you should review."(AI is used in the ITA so I hope it to be implemented soon in LC.)
PLEASE BRING BACK THE 1099-B WORKSHEET. THE NEW FORMAT IS TERRIBLE. IT'S INEFFICIENT, KLUTZY, AND IRRITATING. IF YOU ASKED ME RIGHT NOW IF I WOULD RECOMMEND PROSERIES, I WOULD GIVE A RESOUNDING NO!!!!
I like some software enhancement on birth year validation. I was working on my daughter tax returns and wrongly entered her birth year as 1900 (125 years old) instead of 1990 (35 years old). The error validation features of intuit ProSeries Basic did not catch the error. I was able to transmit her return but good that IRS caught it and rejected the returns. Imagine the disappointment! Thanks.
