Figured this out with the desktop version. If you click on the "Forms" button at the top of the window, you have the ability to go to the 1040 and check "yes" or "no" yourself. Hope that helps someone!
I am using online.
We'd love to help you complete your tax return, @jperasso. Can you please clarify your question? This thread has gotten messy.
My problem is that when I initially went through the tax preparation process (online turbo tax) I was asked if I had/sold digital currency in 2024. I answered no. I then learned my wife did have/sell some (very small amount, for $8 gain). I uploaded the .csv file from coinbase. That all went well but I was not asked the question about whether I owned bitcoin again. When I went to review my 1040 on filing, it still showed me answering "no" to the question of if I had bitcoin.
Now I cannot change that answer. I have tried every combination of options and menu's. And I spent 45 minutes on with turbotax support, where I shared my screen, and, even after they got additional help, they could not find a way to do it. We went around and around in circles clicking here and there. They suggest deleting the coinbase entry and say that it will ask again when I add again, but it does not.
It seems from this post that this problem has been ongoing at least since 2024 in both online and other versions. Please help. I have already paid and spent many hours entering everything and dealing with this.
Well i tried the smart phone app. On Android phone. And when I reviewed income section I got the question again and was able to change to yes. (Is not a bitcoin question but crypto currency question. )
I deleted the crypto entry before doing this. In case anyone has the same problem. Then I added it back AFTER finding the question. But it does not ask while entering crypto info.
Still have questions?
