2023-1040 changed after e-filing on deduction amount, this happened after ProSeries update 4/4/24 in the afternoon

What deduction amount are you referring to?

[tax456]

Specifically, Schedule A line 12.  When e-filed the number was $4k higher

Line 12 is non-cash contributions, "what" exactly changed?   Are some of your Charity Donation information entry sheets empty now?

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

I just spot checked a couple previously filed returns with multiple non-cash donations, they all seem fine, nothing changed with the update yesterday.

Intuit provides a lot of room for typing information, so don't be afraid of using up a little more room on your computer screen to provide some details.  The more information provided, typically the better the answers provided here.

Sched A:

Before -efiling Line 12 -$111,024...line 14 -$139,260

AFTER-e-filing Line 12-$83,556.....line 14-$111,792

should have been limited by AGI, it was a stock contribution limited to 30% of AGI

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

so which is correct?  what it was before or what it changed it to?

[tax456]

The number BEFORE was what we calculated and e-filed.  The number changed after e-filing.

was it caused by a ProSeries update?

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

probably.  Its not a very common type of donation (Ive never seen it before), its possible it had been doing it wrong and they finally updated it.

[IRonMaN]

Probably a related side effect of the issue related to contributions transferring from K-1 worksheets.

[Just-Lisa-Now-]

@Anonymous  can anyone look into this, is this an unintended side effect of the update yesterday, or is this a necessary update and the program was wrong previously? 

[abctax55]

@tax456  "...was what we calculated"

BUT, what is the 'correct' amount???

[tax456]

@abctax55  The amount that the software calculated and was reviewed and approved was the higher number.  The software created an alert AFTER e-filing to say that the numbers had changed.

Why, if calculated wrong, did it not show the NEW (lesser) number prior to e-filing?  Was it due to an update of the program?

We just need an explanation of WHY it changed after filing.

[IRonMaN]

It was due to an update.  But going back to basics - which number is really the correct one?
