Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@MarilynG1 with due respect - this has nothing to do with resolving the built-in, deliberate behavior of Turbotax software. I have the latest [= couple of days ago] TT desktop premier update and its nonsensical overwriting of previous data imports is still here. Let us all understand and admit the simple truth: TT engineers have to change this code segment. No external sequence of steps will help. I say this with some understanding of how software [any software] works, having decades of software engineering background.
People have suggested all kind of attempts, to no avail. Some methods being actually humorous, for example: (*) close and restart TT; (*) log in, then log out of the financial institution web site, repeat 3 times; (*) shut down your computer and restart it then try again; (*) make sure you have the latest TT update; (*) after a first import of financial data, DO NOT import again, change your data manually [duh... then what is the point?].
For grins, other ideas are just as humorous and just as ineffective: (*) stare intently at the TT import screen, close your eyes and say your morning prayer; (*) perform a rain dance in your kitchen; (*) meditate in a corner for an hour then try to import again; (*) and my favorite - pound the keyboard forcefully, let my cat sniff and scare the mouse and look at the TT screen while singing the National Anthem. All these can bring you some emotional support and relieve some frustration but the TT built-in behaviour cares not at all.
Smile and have a blessed day.
