Bob, thank you for looking into this and your quick response. I discovered this when I was doing the last question on the advanced test for VITA volunteer certification, pertaining to the hypothetical Richard Cook and his young daughter.
The word from our State Training Coordinator is the
following.
"Not everything is in TaxSlayer Online for TY2021 yet.
However, the only place I saw that impacts the answers to
the test questions seems to be Questions 35. You should
answer Question 35 based on your knowledge of 2021 tax law,
not based on what you see in TaxSlayer. TaxSlayer is still
waiting for final IRS approval on something before they can
implement new input screens, so it shows some strange
results for this question."
