We can't see your return, but we can suggest troubleshooting techniques.

 

If this was on your current return and your AGI jumped >$26,000.

  • Check the last thing you posted.
  • Be sure you didn't post a decimal place wrong 
  • View the tax summary to see if anything looks strange.
    • On the left sidebar
    • Select Tax Tools
    • Tools
    • From dropdown select View Tax Summary
    • Review the summary

If this is a year-over-year issue

 

To access prior-year TurboTax returns,

  1. Sign in to ‌TurboTax 
  2. You'll have to use the same user ID, 
  3. Go to Tax Home
  4. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents
  5. Choose the desired year
  6. Download or print the PDF. 

 

You can view your 1040 tax return and the supporting three schedules in the online version of TurboTax.

 

  1. On the left menu, scroll down to Tax Tools.
  2. If necessary, click the side arrow and select Tools. 
  3. A box will appear in the middle of the screen.
  4. Select View Tax Summary.
  5. A tax summary will appear.
  6. On the left side menu bar, select Preview My 1040.
  7. This will bring up a copy of your 1040 Tax return.
  8. If you continue to scroll down, Schedules 1,2 & 3 are available if they are required.

Some key numbers on the form are:

  • Taxable income is line 15
  • Total tax is line 24
  • Federal Income Tax withheld is line 25d
  • Tax credits are listed on 27 - 30
  • If there was an underpayment, there may be a penalty

Or did the IRS adjust your filed return?   Compare your return with 2024 line by line.  Maybe you’ll spot a missing or wrong amount or something entered on the wrong line.   Do you get Social Security?  Check 1040 line 6b, it might be missing a taxable amount.  That’s been a common problem.
