Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Alright here is what I did:
1-Go online to TurboTax and choose premier TurboTax .
2-fill in all your info.
3-Add your forms"W-2's etc".
4-On income section add your stocks or Crypto info "if you can't see your exchange you can add your CSV file"
5-After you finish everything DO NOT E-FILE ONLINE.
Instead head to the TaxTools on the left side of the page. click Tools then
"Save your 2021 return to your computer".
6-After you saved your .Tax file from the web head to Tubotax desktop and click on the File=Open Tax Return.
7-Locate your .Tax file you downloaded from TurboTax online.
8-just double check all the info you entered online.
9-E-file your taxes through the Desktop program.
That's it. you are done.
Few notes:
A-My only issue was some CSV files are not supported due to the way it was written I guess.
B-On the desktop turbotax you can choose your 2019 income if it's higher than your 2021 income for higher return. I could NOT locate that on the online turbotax .
SO..
If you want to do this on the desktop follow all steps above BUT before you E-file click on the Federal Taxes then Wages&Income and Revisit all steps there till you enter 2019 income then the program will let you choose between 2021 and 2019 income whichever is greater to claim.
The form to claim 2019 income is Form1040 lines 25-33.I hope this helps someone because it was so confusing for me.
