Schedule 1 Other Adjustments

[ctt0928]

On Schedule 1, Part II (Adjustments to Income), there is no input option for an “Other adjustment” on line 24z. When I try to jump to that input, the software routes me to the alimony line instead. Where can I enter an “other adjustment” for line 24z?

The forms instructions say: "Line 24z Leave line 24z blank."

What kind of adjustment are you trying to make?

Backing out income in respect to a decedent. Need to report the full 1099-R amount for matching purposes, then back out the portion that goes on the estate return. A negative 1099-R entry does not flow through correctly to the return.

I'd put on Sch 1, Page 1, Line 8z as a negative "other income" item. Screen 14.1 "Other income (Ctrl+E)"

I'd just report the amount of the 1099-R that belongs on the 1040.

I have never had a matching notice for the year of death.
