Question

Check Entry - Form 5329-T still a problem

I did as DanaB27 suggested and sent a diagnostic .tax2023 file to TurboTax online from my TurboTax Deluxe program so that my file will be shared with an Agent. I have not heard from anyone yet. This sharing feature seems like a great feature, but there is no easy way to confirm that it has been received and is being analyzed. Can anyone shed light on this feature?

I've used TT for years, but my one complaint is that it's nearly impossible to get through to someone when you have an issue. I would think TT would be very interested in tracking down potential bugs.

    We didn't receive your token.

     

     We would like to take a deeper dive into this message to assist you.  In order to do this, it would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2023" file that is experiencing this issue. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions: Go to the black panel on the left side of your program and select Tax Tools.

     

    1. Then select Tools below Tax Tools.
    2. A window will pop up which says Tools Center.
    3. On this screen, select Share my file with Agent.
    4. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is. Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number.
    5. Reply to this thread with your Token number. This will allow us to open a copy of your return without seeing any personal information.

    Here are the instructions if you are using TurboTax CD/Download:
     

    1. Click on Online in the top left menu of TurboTax CD/Download for Windows
    2. Select 'Send Tax File to Agent'
    3. Write down or send an image of your token number then place in this issue.
    4. We can then review your exact scenario for a solution.
    5. Please also tell us any states included in the return.

    We will then be able to see exactly what you are seeing and we can determine what exactly is going on in your return and provide you with a resolution.

    Ok, I finally realized you are talking about this post. My confusion was because I got the same post as an email and I tried to reply to that.

    My diagnostic file was sent about 20 minutes ago and gave me a Token number = 1204960.

    Please confirm that you received it.
