How can I get a copy of the file that I actually sent via e-file? Does that 2024 PDF you downloaded have any of these pages:  the Electronic Filing Instructions, the Electronic Postmark, and Summary Page with your refund deposit information?   In that section where you downloaded your 2024 return ("Your Tax Returns & Documents"), what is showing for the status of the 2024 return--does it say accepted, rejected, printed, started, or something else?   Sometimes people have started a return in more than 1 account.  If it becomes necessary, we can tell you how to look for other accounts.   But first we have to see if that account is the one used to efile your return to the IRS.  How you respond to the above questions will be a clue.   Also, after efiling last year did you go back into your return interview and make any changes in it or start an amended return?   

"Updated after February 13th, 2026" ?? What does that mean? I talked with a TurboTax representative last week and was told "BY February 13th or earlier". I've let them string me along this long because its the path of least resistance for me. Unfortunately, this year I really need to get my taxes done now! I sold my rental in 2025 so once I get the taxes done it will be the last time I use TurboTax.

I eliminated the "Canadian" question.   The first thing I did was to delete ALL imported forms ... Dividend, Interest, Stocks & Bonds, etc.    After deleting all the imported forms, I returned to the "Summary" pages ... the page where see and can delete, review, or edit the various sections/forms (not sure what it's called ... I only do this once a year so I don't remember all the names used by TT).   I selected for "Review" the import forms, and went through the process of again importing the forms from my Bank/Brokerage.   During the "Selection" of forms to import, all the forms were "checked" by default ... including a OID 1099. The description of the form described the form as a "Foreign" accounts or interest ... something to that affect.   I unchecked the form and the annoying "Canadian" question did not show up again as I completed (for the 3rd or 4th time) the 2025 Return.

Hello: Turbotax token: Your token number is: 70343665-07773709   There is a bug with Form 1116 AMT   Part IV, Line 33 is incorrect.  This should be the smaller of Line 20 ($5,888) or Line 32 ($5,903). So the smaller value is $5,888.   Instead, Line 33 is only picking Line 27, the value for Passive Income, $3,090.   Because of this error, Turbotax is incorrectly calculating my AMT to be very high.  Please fix this bug ASAP as I cannot efile the tax return with an error.   Thank you.    

Hi @AmyC ,   Thanks for your response to this question. I'm in the exact same situation as the original poster. In past years, TT never put values in this part of the worksheet. This year (tax year 2025), TT is complaining about missing values for: line 4b(1)c: Adj Basis of Tot Inv Ast line 4b(1)b: Adj Basis Fgn Inv Assets Your reply didn't clarify for me whether: I've done something wrong in the Foreign Tax Credit questionnaire; or TurboTax genuinely needs some kind of information from me related to these investments. Can you please demystify for me what I need to provide TT to make it happy with this worksheet, and where I should be able to find that information?   It's frustrating to pay money for a product predicated on explaining and simplifying taxes, only for it to hit you with an impenetrable blocker like this.

Seeing the comments on here i had the same issue thought I filed last year with turbo tax I was charged but not for my taxes ? I didn’t file and i don’t know what to do now. For last year ? I was trying to do them for this year but if they didn’t even help me with them last year ? What do I do ? 

Can someone claim you as a dependent like your parent?  Someone already filed a return with your ssn on it.  It could be a mistake on their return.   If you are a dependent go back though My Info and look for the checkbox that you can be claimed.  Otherwise you will have to print and mail your return and let the IRS figure it out.  

It is automatic based on your age. It is not part of your Standard Deduction. The new Senior Deduction is separate and in addition to the Standard Deduction or your Itemized Deductions on 1040 line 12e. The 6,000/12,000 senior deduction will be calculated on 1040 Schedule 1-A page 2 Part V Enhanced Deduction for Seniors which goes to 1040 line 13b with any other sch 1-A amounts. Turbo Tax automatically includes it if you qualify. If you are married you have to file a Joint return.
