I just submitted my return with Turbotax and I think I found an error.
I contributed stock to charity five times in 2023. Right after submitting, I reviewed the PDF of my return again and realized that only four stock contributions are listed on the four lines of form 8283. Last year, Turbotax created additional form 8283s to list all of the contributions but I do not see that this year. I do not see any mention of the fifth contribution anywhere in the PDF.
I am sure I added all five stock contributions in the interview, and the total amount donated on line 12 of schedule A in the PDF is the correct sum of those five contributions (and, of course, more than the sum of the four contributions on the single form 8283 submitted with my return).
This seems like a glaring problem but I'm not sure what to do at this point as I have already submitted. I do believe this appears to be an error by the Turbotax software.
Help!
I used TurboTax online premium 2023.

Look for an overflow statement ... save a PDF with the worksheets in the Print Center:
Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen. Then click on Print Center. Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.
Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets
Thanks for the quick reply!
Now that I have submitted, I don't seem to have access to "Tools" or the print center anymore where I can select options like including worksheets. All I can do is print my return. Form 8283 is the last form in my federal return, and I don't see anything after that. I have also tried searching the document for the stock ticker symbol as well as the name of the charity and I cannot find the fifth donation anywhere.
I guess its possible that an overflow statement was sent to the IRS but not included with the printable PDF that I have access to now, but it's not very reassuring.
Thanks again!
