Overview

- Dependent age 65 or over.
My clients husband is 91 and disabled. There is know where in Lacerte to mark the client as disabled. There suggestion was in screen 2 there is a disabled check box to check and they say that is why the box is there but by doing that that it wants you to create a dependent and changes the calculations that are not correct. I also called the MA DOR and they agreed the taxpayer is eligible. Am I missing something? Anyone have any suggestions?
