2023 Oregon Form OR-A

This form is not populating.  As a result, the return is using the OR standard deduction which is much smaller than the taxpayer's itemized total.  How can I get the deductions to appear on Sch OR-A for 2023?

    Using TurboTax Desktop, you can follow the instructions below to itemize your Oregon deductions:

    1. Open your state return.
    2. Go into Forms mode.
    3. On the left, scroll down to the Oregon Individual forms.
    4. Choose Info Worksheet.
    5. In Part V of the Info Worksheet, mark the box that states Itemize even if itemized deductions are less than the standard deduction.
    6. Form OR-A will be added.

    Thank you.  Some follow-up questions:

     

    1) The taxpayer's itemized deductions are more than the OR standard deduction.  Shouldn't Form OR-A automatically generate, as it did last year when I used the online version?

    2) If I use the Desktop version, will the return data carryover to next year, or will I have to use the Desktop version again next year?

    Thank you for asking this question. The solution did work for me, but TurboTax needs to fix this problem or Oregon residents will not get their maximum deductions.
