W-2 Shows AE (Armed Forces in Europe) in Box 15, Not in Drop down when going to inputting on W-2 screen. I can put it in on the screen for the employee address. But not as a state for Box 15.

To avoid paying estimated taxes, people with SSDI can get taxes withheld from IRS, with Form W-4V. However, I also have rental income (unearned income) from a small home I inherited from my parents. Can I still use W-4V to avoid paying estimated taxes? I don't work (don't get a W-2), but I have SSDI and rental income.

But the recently published document with a date of 3/14/25 clearly says a deduction is allowed.  The pig butchering scam listed in the document is the exact scam I was a target. The article does not mention anything complex. What am I missing?   Thanks!

Yes, your social security payments can be taxable if your total income, including your Social Security plus any other income, exceeds $25k.   Unless you live in the countries below.

Did you find a resolution? I have the same issue.  This is incredibly frustrating and have spent hours on trying to resolve this from every suggestion made in many different comment chains.  It has to be glitch in their system but I've no way to fix it.  I am overseas so can't mail my taxes, and it won't let me delete and start over as I've already paid.  Hoping you found a way to solve this?

During Review, Turbo Tax Online (Premium) is checking entry on Schedule E, but I'm the only one living in this property in 2024. It's not allowing me to enter days rented = 0. How can I move forward?   I had a tenant in 2022 and reported rental income. But I stopped renting it in 2023 and didn't report any income.

I was automatically assigned the Live Premium product instead of the typical premium DIY I use and didn't catch it in time. I called customer service as I didn't have a downgrade option either. The only option they gave me to change products was to clear and start over...not cool. I asked for a discount code to cover the difference and they offered me 20% which is ridiculous. I have been using TurboTax for 15+ years. It is very disappointing that the bait & switch seems alive & well with this company

  In Box 7 I entered 7-Normal Distribution.  I enter 7-Normal Distribution in Box 7. No, the IRA amount was not included on 5a.  Yes, I did check the box for IRA.  The taxable amount for my IRA DID SHOW on Line 4b.  I'm out of time and I really don't want to send this in wrong.  Can someone please try a test by entering a 1099R for IRAs and see if it comes out correctly on 4a. I have used Turbo Tax for years and this is the first problem I have recognized.  I purchased TurboTax Home & Business from Amazon and am using it on a laptop.    
you don't say how much you converted,  for paperwork convenience, the correct action is to convert $8,011.31 to roth IRA   @magatha99 
It does not allow Zeros if there is a locality named. I don't understand

I assume you're using Online TurboTax.  I also assume that you are still in the preparation phase, since you didn't say otherwise.     You can have preview privileges of the Federal Form 1040 for free while working on your return as described below, or you can pay in advance for full viewing/printing privileges at will of all forms in your return.    Here are the 2 options:   You can preview your Form 1040 at any time for free.  Here's how:   Open your return, and in the left menu column, choose TAX TOOLS, then choose TOOLS. In the Tools window, choose "View Tax Summary." When the Tax Summary opens, look in the left menu column and choose Preview My 1040. That will show you the Form 1040 and schedules 1-3. Or if you wish to do so, you can pay in advance to view/print the Form 1040 and all forms in your return at will.  Here's how:   Open your return, and in the left menu column, choose Tax Tools, then Print Center. Then choose "Print/save/preview this year's return." On the next screen choose to "Pay now". Note:  It may try to upsell you on add-ons like MAX, which you can choose or decline. The next screen should be an Order Summary.  Review that, and if all is OK, click Continue. It should then prompt you for payment by credit or debit card.  The screen only says "credit card", but it will take a debit card.  If it should offer you the option to "pay later" out of the Federal refund, that can't be used for this purpose.  You will need to pay now by credit/debit card in order to download/print prior to filing. Then you should have an option of which PDF to download/print/view.  "Just my tax returns", or "include government worksheets (optional)", or "include government and TurboTax worksheets (optional.)"  NOTE:  Remember all PDF tax documents and tax data files are very sensitive files, since they contain your personal ID info, financial data, and possibly bank account numbers, etc.  Be sure to store them safely and securely to guard against computer theft, hacking, etc.
The state form refers to the federal schedule A but I don't see any entry there and I did not enter any assets.
