David is age 40 and was widowed in July, 2022. He has a daughter, Linda, age 8, who lived with him the entire year. • David provided the entire cost of maintaining the household and over half of the support for Linda. In order to work, he pays childcare expenses to Uptown Daycare. • David purchased health insurance for himself and his daughter through the Marketplace. He received a Form 1095-A. • David and Linda are U.S. citizens and lived in the United States all year in 2023. 33. David's retirement savings contributions credit on Form 8880 is what?

To determine David's retirement savings contributions credit (also known as the Saver's Credit) on Form 8880, we would need to know the amount of his contributions to qualifying retirement plans, such as an IRA, 401(k), or another eligible plan, as well as his adjusted gross income (AGI). The Saver's Credit is a nonrefundable tax credit for eligible taxpayers who make contributions to their retirement accounts. The credit rate can be 10%, 20%, or 50% of the first $2,000 ($4,000 if married filing jointly) of contributions, depending on the filer's AGI. Since you haven't provided the amount of David's contributions or his AGI, I can't calculate the exact credit amount. However, here's how David would determine his credit: 1. He would look at the Form 8880 instructions to find the income limits for his filing status, which would be "Qualifying Widow(er)" with a dependent child for the tax year 2023. 2. He would compare his AGI to the income limits in the instructions to determine his credit rate. 3. He would calculate the credit by applying the appropriate rate to the amount of his qualifying retirement contributions, up to the $2,000 limit for individuals. David should complete Form 8880 to calculate his exact credit amount and report it on his tax return. If he needs assistance, he should consult a tax professional or use tax preparation software that
