I am amending to include a carryback loss. the fiscal year is 10/1/2016 - 9/30/2017. The problem is re-creating the original return (I didn't prepare) Form 4562 has an entry for Part III - i, nonresidential real property. It is for a roof on a building - the previous preparer has it listed as 39 year property, MM convention, SL method. Now here is the problem, the date placed in service is 3/14/2017 for $18,800 and the current year depreciation is 262. I can't get it to add the current year depreciation (2016), it wants to carry it to 2017 return. I have tried the quick-entry of the item and the direct input, both without showing any depreciation at all. Is there a way to over-ride this? Or am I missing something? Thank you for your suggestions. Pattie

My client is MFS - Lives with Spouse and has dependent care benefits (pre-tax). I want to generate the exclusion so her $4500 is not taxable. I know she can't take the Child Care Credit. I just want to make the exclusion show up on page 2 - how is that done?  Thank you in advance for any help on this issue Pattie

client received rental property in like kind exchange and I am setting up the depreciation. There is a FMV of $759,000 and a Basis of $219,232 with a deferred gain of $539,768 what do I use for the cost? And what do I do about the deferred gain?

Can't separate the incomes between the 2 states cause I can't add a Nevada State Return. Client's IRA, Interest and Dividend income is included in the Federal Adjusted Gross Income on Schedule CA NR. Will I have to subtract all other income as an over-ride to show only the CA Rental income to CA?
