Tax is not computed on AGI (line 11) but on taxable income (line 15) . There are multiple methods that can affect the tax calculation because certain items get special treatment. If this person is self-employed, besides regular income taxes, there can be an additioanl 15% tax on net self-employment income.    However, I think in your situation something was entered incorrectly.     

Double check that you are looking at the document number, which has multiple characters- here is where you can see an example NYDMV. Enter the first 3 characters after, not including "IDUSA".  Some other users experienced errors with incorrect issue and expiry dates, so double check they are correct and not swapped as well.    For more information, see Where do I find my document number so that I can e-file my New York return?

There are other possible deductions besides state income tax. The most common are medical expenses and contributions to charity. Look at Schedule A and see what deductions TurboTax is including. Look at the actual tax form, not a summary screen in TurboTax. Also double-check all of your state tax entries on your W-2 and elsewhere. Look for entry errors including repeated or transposed digits, extra digits, misplaced decimal points, etc. We can't see your tax return. The federal tax payment is not deductible. It should not be entered anywhere. Did you mistakenly enter it somewhere that caused it to be counted as a deduction?  

You can enter your current occupation at the time you are signing and filing the return.   The IRS really just uses this field for statistical purposes to track employment trends across the country. It doesn't affect your tax calculations.

Skip the import and choose 1099-R (financial institution or other provider).   DFAS is an ''other provider'' in TurboTax.     Where do I enter a 1099-R?   You can enter the amounts directly in TurboTax.   After you enter the form with the Federal ID number, TurboTax will prompt you to identify the form as military retirement and then transfer amounts to your state return if applicable.   Thank you for your service!      

The same issue happens to me as well, not just that, all of my previous tax return is gone too, and I checked the turbox folder under /users/xxx/, its creation time becomes 2024, this is really frustrating, and 100% sure it is the software bug
