I am using TurboTax Premier (download) edition to prepare Federal and Quebec returns.
I am preparing tax returns for my mother, who was widowed last spring. Her status in her 2020 tax returns was "married"; when I process her return for 2021 and indicate marital status "widowed", with a change in February 2021, the Quebec TP1 shows her status at Dec 31 2021 as "had a spouse". If I go directly to INFOWS and remove her "previous" marital status to blank, the TP1 correctly shows "did not have a spouse", but I get errors during the review, saying I need to indicate previous year status and date of change . . . . and then the whole cycle begins again (changes to "had a spouse", etc.).
I tried (a) transferring data from 2020 return, and (b) creating a return from scratch, and am not able to get around this issue. Any suggestions?
