No one else has offered a solution or explanation and I have not heard from anyone at Intuit which is where the problem lies. Anyone at Intuit have an answer or explanation? I continue to efile returns containing both federal and Colorado returns. All federal returns get accepted and federal refunds have been issued in a few cases. However, ALL Colorado returns are still sitting at Intuit.

In answer to both questions - Yes, each day I select each return and ask for an acknowledgement. Still stays in "Received by Intuit" status. No, none of the returns have any energy credits. Regardless, the federal returns went thru and I am not asking why the refund is not being issued.

All returns e-filed to date have been successfully transmitted to the IRS and are in process. 3 of those returns contain the Colorado state return and the e-File status says "Received by Intuit" with the oldest being transmitted on 1/31/24.

A single-owner employee of S-Corp wants to deduct in-home childcare expenses as a business expense on the K-1. There are no other employees and only the owner/employees child participates. There is not a dedicated portion of the home for daycare as only a nanny will be employed as household employee throughout the home. There are no other company employees and no other children are provided for. These childcare expenses would not be ordinary to the line of business but would be necessary for the employee to work full time in the business. Can the owner deduct the in-home childcare expense as a business expense on the K-1?
