Troubleshooting
I found a workaround to the bug it appears TurboTax doesn't want to correct. On the screens to where you are entering in Schedule 11 amounts: Line 8; Box 32010; Box 32020. For LINE 9, my child had zero carried forward from 2022 on her Schedule 11 on her income tax return. Leaving it at zero, when I carried on and clicked on TUITION TRANSFER button, it would only allow me to manually enter in $25.65. Anything more I would get an error and could not carry on.
I should be able to enter the amount from Schedule 11 on line 23 (which is a couple thousand dollars) on my daughter's return (which I should be allowed to transfer that full amount), but TurboTax would NOT allow me to enter in any value higher than $25.65.
So I went back a screen in TurboTax where above you are entering in Line 8; Box 32010; Box 32020. On LINE 9 "Amount of unused tuition/education credits carried forward to 2022", I changed it from ZERO to the value I wanted to claim and should be able to claim. When I click on the TUITION TRANSFER button, which takes you to the next screen with only one entry. In the box labelled "If the dependent chose to transfer less than the maximum allowable for their federal tuition, enter the amount here" I can now enter in my desired amount (which matches the previous screen amount in LINE 9). I'm hoping the calculations are correct, but it did decrease my amount owing, so I'm hoping it is working.
