Update.
As I was about to go to sleep last night I thought of a solution. I deleted that 1 1099 that was wrong & re-downloaded it. This time it had both of those boxes blank!
I was still trying to correct it. Went ahead w state. But realized the issue is state relevant since it is muni bond fund & there is portion from OR. Still couldn’t figure out a way to correct it.
so then I again deleted the form & downloaded it. Same as the 2nd download. Both of the boxes were blank. But then as I was going around it I noticed an edit button in the guided part & it did allow me to correct the #s. To fill them in. Part of it is the small print where I didn’t notice it.
but TT messed up in not downloaded the 1099 form correctly. 1st time it did it wrong 1 way. Then next 2 times it still did it wrong but w out anything in those boxes.
but it was TT not downloading the form correctly & directions not being clear that caused me to not be able to get at least the Fed done before the deadline. & I’m afraid I will be facing penalties or fines. I’ll have to print them out & enclose an explanation of what happened & hopefully not have to pay penalty. Have both tax due as well as estimated to catch up on.
so NOT HAPPY WITH TT MISTAKES COSTING ME& MISSING OUT ON E-File which was included! Or supposed to be. I would think they could still allow e-file w a date stamp indicating it was after the deadline but allowing it to get in several days sooner than mailing & now I guess I will not only have to print all that but send it certified. & not happy with all the xtra hours it has taken!
