TurboTax will only import TRANSFER "personal data" from a PDF file. it will not import TRANSFER any information past the "My Info" screen. You need to be importing TRANSFERRING from the .tax2021 file. Not the PDF file.
If you have access to the prior year return and can get the PDF then you can also get the .taxfile... if you need help in that regard post what program you used for the 2021 return for instructions on how to get the correct file you need for transferring.
This has always been the situation and always will be and no amount of complaining will change this sitation. A PDF is only a picture of the return and not the working tax file. Trying to transfer from a PDF is like showing a picture of your injured pet to a VET and asking them to do surgery on them without actually touching them.
