    ProSeries- educator deduction not calculating correctly

    Heads up if you have both spouses in education. Pro is only allowing the total of $250 rather than $500 even though both had expenses.

    I tested mine and all is OK. Ultra Tax. Be sure to put 250 in for taxpayer and separate for spouse. Not 500 in one.

    I know it sounds obvious but it can happen when you know more than the program...Program is KING.

      Seriously Bob? I know how to enter when both are educators.

      I was just giving a head's up for others to be aware of the issue.

        No insult intended, and I'm sorry if I offended you. You above all posters would know how to enter data. But, I thought it was a teaching moment for newbies that try to shortcut their software. Again SORRY!

          No problem. My back is killing me from dealing with ice and snow and I'm quite grumpy today.
