How can I see my refund/tax owed before I am done?

In previous years, using Turbo Tax software on my computer, I was given the on-going taxes owed (or refund due) as I entered different items. I don't see this using the web version.

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
