MFJ vs. MFS

[kshaffer]

We're finding that on the MFJ vs. MFS analysis, the stimulus rebate credit not working.  Is anyone else finding this?

That analysis isn't normally a finely tuned racing machine.  It's very possible that it hasn't been properly tuned for the credit yet.

Id be more surprised if it DID work. Planners and worksheets at at the end of the fix-it list, they focus more on required forms and calculations.

Yeah--I don't rely on the numbers as exact, but it's normally close-ish.  I have clients that received the full stimulus amounts and are definitely within the income limits, but the analysis is trying to give them more.  Hard to plan when an extra $900 is added incorrectly.  Guess I'll keep waiting and hope an update will catch it.
