How to complete Rental form T776 - sharing info with spouse co-owner

[gpiwowar]

Surely there is a way you don't have to enter all the same information for each Rental Income form T776 - sharing info with spouse co-owner. (TurboTax 2023 Download Standard Edition)

Supposedly you just "Edit" (ie enter the income and expenses for that property?), then "Save" (is there a way to Save in Easy Step mode, or do you have to switch to Forms mode, then go File Save?), then "Switch to the other Spouse" to verify the information auto-populated (is there a way to switch spouses in Easy Step mode, or do you have to switch to Forms mode, then use the ribbon at the bottom of the screen?)

In any event, it's certainly not working for me in either Easy Step or Forms mode....

Is this a feature you have to upgrade to use? I don't see that stated anywhere.

Thanks in advance if anyone can shed some light on this pet peeve...

Cheers, Glenn

For help with this, please follow our TurboTax FAQ: How do I enter rental property income if my spouse and I are co-owners? You can follow the steps for either Forms View or Easy Steps.

As I indicated in my original post, this is not working for me - neither Easy nor Forms:

The information (income, expenses, etc) that I have entered in my return are NOT TRANSFERRING to my spouse's return.  (Also, it appears there are errors in the documentation you cited, because under the steps for "Download" version it refers to "Online Premier"...)

DO I NEED TO UPGRADE (from Download "Standard" to Download "Premier") in order to have this capability?  or is it available only in the Online Premier version?

Thank you in advance!

Premier is recommended for guidance on investment income and expenses, and rental property income and expenses.

It was not easy, but I did finally speak to a live support person, and she confirmed that THIS AUTO-POPULATE CAPABILITY IS NOT WORKING in the any current version of the software.

Thank you for the update. An update should be coming in the near future.

Thank you for your patience.
