usually in the upper left hand corner, it will show you the amount when you type in your W2's, then the number will usually go up if you add dependents. and so on..so my question is, why is it not showing me these numbers as im doing my taxes like it normal does?

    MISSING REFUND MONITOR

     

    Sorry—-the “running” refund monitor that used to change as you entered data is gone.  You have to get all of your income, etc. entered into the software in order to see the results.

    The other place for you to look for your federal refund or federal tax due is on your Form 1040

    Federal refund will be on line 35a

    Federal tax due (that needs to be paid by April 15) will be on line 37

     

     

    PREVIEW 1040

    Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.

    I found mine by expanding at the "Explain" carat (>).
