Assumptions and limitations

  • Enter only taxable amounts and allowable adjustments for your tax year after checking the applicable forms. The labels are a worksheet, not a determination that every payment or deduction qualifies.
  • Signed business and capital gains/loss amounts are entered as determined under applicable tax rules. The source worksheet retains historical labels such as tuition and moving expenses; enter zero unless currently allowed.
  • Enter all monetary amounts in a single currency. Retained currency conversion factors are a captured static snapshot, not live exchange rates.
  • Clear a known field before solving for it. Locks retain chosen inputs; inconsistent locked values need correction. Reset restores the captured defaults.
