Is the Tax Due too high?  Better check if you have a penalty on 1040 line 38.   Before filing you can preview the 1040 or print the whole return. You have to pay any fees first before you can see all the forms, etc. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/accessing/help/how-do-i-preview-my-turbotax-online-return-before-filing/00/26160   If you get a penalty on 1040 line 38, you might be able to eliminate it or at least reduce it. You can go to Federal Taxes tab or Personal tab, under Other Tax Situations and select Start by the Underpayment Penalties. You will answer a series of questions that may reduce or eliminate the penalty. Or you can elect to have the IRS figure the penalty for you. It's form 2210.

When you enter a 1099R for a pension, you should say it was ALL an RMD.    Did you import the 1099R?  You can manually fix the entry and change it to Fidelity.

In TurboTax Home & Business, in the sale of our home which had a home office the app says that there is a taxable gain of $xx on the home office depreciation that we took but this value never shows up in the list of income on the 1040; why does it not show up?  The system also insists that the box for Installment Income be checked, which I did not do as this is not an installment sale.  Please explain what I should do for both (1) the taxable gain statement that does not show up in the list of income and (2) the installment box checkmark.   Many thanks,   SamB

Yes. If you received distributions from an IRA you have to report the distributions on your tax return. Fidelity sent you a Form 1099-R showing the total distributions that you received for the year. You have to enter the 1099-R in TurboTax. If you did not receive the 1099-R in the mail you can download it from your online Fidelity account or call them and ask them to send another copy.  
example: 3 funds and 1099-div box 1a says $5000. One fund 's U.S. government obligation is 8% for just that one fund, whose actual portion of the $5K is $2K. How does TT know what to do?

We got married in July. We live in VA under military orders. We want to file Married Joint, but Turbo Tax is telling me under the State section that I have to file Married Filling Separate. This doesn't seem right, and am trying to get further details. She is not a resident of NC under the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act. Assistance and/or steps would be greatly appreciated!
