Tuition amount transfer to parent

Hello,

I am having the same problem.  Says that $0 is eligible for transfer.  Clearly this is a software issues.  Seem like calling in for support is no help.  Will there be a software update to fixed this issues?

Sorry as it appears you are not working on this problem with the multiple inquiries made here it is time to move to another product. I have used this for years but your responses here are not acceptable. It has been weeks since people posted this and no response or admittance there is an error- unacceptable

i finally got this to work after many attempts.

 

Under claim dependent credits i selected "transfer my child's tuition and education amounts".

 

On the "tuition transfer amount" screen i entered the amount able to transfer from her taxes for federal and/or provincial (if you have the student's return it's on the Schedule 11, if not on the turbo tax it will show as the "leftover" amount on their return).  

 

Click Tuition Transfer button at the bottom of this screen.

 

The next screen WILL BE ZEROS unless the dependent chose to transfer less than the max allowable amount.

 

To double check that the tuition credit was applied i look under review, detailed tax summary and make sure the correct amount is showing in line 32400.  if you are filing with a partner the higher income earner will see the credit.

 

This was hands-down the trickiest part of doing the return this year and was def more complicated than past years.

I did all of this and the tuition transfer is not appearing.  I have read all of the posts over the past 4 weeks and I cannot believe Turbo Tax is not taking this issue seriously.  There is a glitch in their program.  Schedule 11 from 2022 differs from 2023 - they have obviously not linked the correct cells.  Extremely frustrating.
