Get your taxes done using TurboTax
When you first open a tax file for your 2022 return by importing the information from your 2021 return, TurboTax will ask you if certain income and deduction items still apply for 2022. Things such as banks reporting interest income, companies providing you with a W-2, etc. will be shown on a list so that you can say 'yes, you will be entering that information again' or 'no, I do not need this entry'. This list of items may keep popping up until you have answered either yes or no. You should not be asked to enter any details about those items until you get to the appropriate section of TurboTax to fill in your 2022 information.
For example, if you were asked about an entry for Form 1099-INT for interest income from Bank of America and you answered 'yes' you do have that again this year, then when you get to the Interest Income section, you will not be starting from scratch. The Form 1099-INT for Bank of America will already be there and all you need to do is enter the amount of interest. If you answer 'no' that you do not have interest from Bank of America, then the program will delete that entry before you get to the Interest Income section.
Items from the 'business' section and items from the 'personal' section will still remain in those sections for you to enter the current year information and details. TurboTax is just trying to present you with a list of as many things as possible to help save you some steps.
If you find that there is an extra form or input there after you've worked through your return, you can always use the Forms mode in the upper right corner of the screen to find and delete it. Click Forms, then highlight the form on the list down the left side of the screen, then click the Delete button at the bottom.
