It is necessary to go to Form 8889 to say that you are eligible for the HSA account and fill in Line 3 or you will be taxed on the employer contribution.     Another Former All Star

It won't solve the crashing problem, but go to Tools, clicking on Options will show you General highlighted.  About halfway down that page you will see the option to choose how often to save your files automatically.  Normally 5 minutes is good but if I were crashing as often as you are, I would select every 1 or 2 minuters.     Another Former All Star

Crazy, but the customer help in DC says to use the D-40B and request all the withholding back.  If that is rejected, then you file the D-40.  There is no way to do any of the things they tell you to do because the forms do not have the necessary lines..  The worst is completing the Form D-40B and then ProSeries will not let you print anything!! Four hours of trying with client sitting with me and I finally went to the DC website, found the form, filled it in and printed with no issues!  It cannot be efiled.What a nightmare it has been.  Military sources say you have to pay the taxes on the extra income but if T/P has a spouse, it is very easy to excuse them from DC taxes so why not the actual person in the military?  
My client has been stationed in DC for the full year of 2023 in the military.  She is considered by the military to be a resident of Texas even though she was in DC all year.  She did several part ti... See more...
My client has been stationed in DC for the full year of 2023 in the military.  She is considered by the military to be a resident of Texas even though she was in DC all year.  She did several part time jobs during the year for which she was given W-2s with DC withholding.  I cannot decide whether she needs to file a D40 (resident) or a D40B (non-resident).  I talked to the DC Revenmue Service and they said to file the D40B requesting all the withholdings back and then if DC rejects it, to file again on the D40!  A military site said that she needs to pay DC tax on her part time income but spouses do not.  Help!!!

Try rebooting your computer particularly if there are a number of apps or pages open.  It worked for me a few days ago when I received the same message.  If that fails, try waiting for a few minutes.
That is always a possibility!.

In prior years the trustee had issued checks to the client for him to write the QCD checks and then they sent the remaining RMD less IRS withholding to the client.  In 2023 the client sent the QCD checks out but the trustere failed to finish their part of the bargain.  Obviously client has some fault but not all of it!
I was afraid I should have entered some approximate numbers to make this clearer.  His RMD for 2023 was $52,000 and he only removed $23,000 during 2023.  In January 2024 he removed the missing $29,00... See more...
I was afraid I should have entered some approximate numbers to make this clearer.  His RMD for 2023 was $52,000 and he only removed $23,000 during 2023.  In January 2024 he removed the missing $29,000 plus earnings of $450 for a total of $29,450.  The trustee (not exactly a small entity) notified him that his 2024 RMD is $55,000 but since he has already taken $29,450, he only needs to withdraw another $25,550 to satisfy his 2024 RMD. I think that would make him $29,450 short for 2024 and the cycle continues!
My client failed to take all of the 2023 RMD from his IRA in 2023.  This was corrected in January 2024 by taking the remaining 2023 RMD plus earnings from January 1st through the date of withdrawal. ... See more...
My client failed to take all of the 2023 RMD from his IRA in 2023.  This was corrected in January 2024 by taking the remaining 2023 RMD plus earnings from January 1st through the date of withdrawal. Now the trustee (who was the culprit on the missing RMD)  has sent information to the client showing the correct 2024 RMD but subtracting the makeup 2023 distribution and its earnings to reduce the amount he needs to withdraw for the 2024 RMD. I think they are totally wrong in that calculation.  Am I correct?    Another Former All Star

As of 4 minutes ago the State of Texas did not have the forms available for filing the 2023 Franchise Tax retruns.  It is not due until 05/01/2024.

Follow the answers on Line 3 of that worksheet and you'll see that it the LTCG and Qualified Dividends that are in control of the worksheet.
Check the Qualified Dividends and Capital Gains Worksheet and you will probably see that the capital gains and/or qualified dividends are not being taxed. Pleasant surprise for you and your clients! ... See more...

Please make your own post.  Since this is marked as solved, it has not nearly as many chances of being viewed.     Another Former All Star
Look at a reponse on Form 9325.  It will be the first 6 numbers of the code.
Try a cold boot of the computer.  That worked for me the last time that problem occurred.   Another former All Star.  
Thank you, Bill. I hope to avoid the problem in the future!

Jeff, have you ever tried to do a TurboTax return?  Several times I have had clients bring me one  they were trying to do for one of their children.  I gave up after the first time as trying to wade through endless irrelevant questions was more than I was willing or even capable of doing.                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Another Former All Star
