Since the withholding goes into the IRS account for the decedent, how will it be credited on another person's SSN and 1040?
That has never been a federal income tax credit.
Do you have the T, S or J Indicators checked in the Tools Options section?
Same on the PS Sch E worksheet. The suspended losses are on the lower part of the Sch E worksheet.

Sales tax collected by sellers is neither income nor expense to the seller.

I use Pro Series, not ProConnect, but we have to enter two state wages boxes, one for NY(typically the same as federal wages), and the different one for NJ(includes Cafe 125 pre-tax health insurance, for one thing). For the NY sourced wages, you must calculate NJ wages and enter both on the W2. Just be careful that NJ doesn't pick up BOTH amounts as wages, only the correct amount. FYI, PA would pick up both, we just need to check a box to exclude the NY wages from PA.

1) Is it an estate or a trust? It cannot be both. 2) When I receive a 1099-R with an estate or trust as the owner(bad tax planning!) I enter the amount as Other Income on the 1041. Withholdings go on the withholdings line for 1099s. 3) If you can get the income passed through you can save a lot of tax money. BUT YOU MUST FILE TO GET THE WITHHOLDINGS REFUNDED. Withholdings cannot be "passed through" to beneficiaries. (Estimates can be transferred to beneficiaries.)

If there are too many sales to enter, I make entries like "Short term sales," Code A or B, and use the totals from the forms. Also enter the total Wash Sales amount, if necessary. Same for "Long term sales," Code D or E also using Various as purchase date and 12/31/23 as sales date. I haven't attached PDFs for several years. CAGMC.

IDK if this is the exact same situation that I have seen, but you will have to uncheck the e-file boxes for one person, open state return, then save it. E-file the other person's return, then do the reverse for the 2nd person after the other person's returns have been accepted.

Make sure you get a copy of the 5498 showing the contribution of the $20k and the date of the distribution and the rollover and amount. In about 16 months after 2023, the IRS will send the TP a notice requesting this "within 60 days" proof of rollover date with the amount.
All those separate W2s couldn't have more tax withheld. Too little separate income. Even w/o her own dependency, she gets about half her wages as std deduction, so her income tax is only at 10%. ... See more...
