It depends.  If last years tax return is stored locally on your computer, TurboTax will recognize it.    On your Mac, find last year's tax file and copy it to a removable device like a thumb or flash drive. On your PC, copy the tax file from the device to your desktop or Documents folder. Rename the tax file by right-clicking it, selecting Rename, and adding a .tax2023 filename extension to it. Launch TurboTax 2024 and select Start a New Return (or go to File and select New Tax Return). TurboTax should find your 2023 tax file. If not, select Browse, go to where you saved the file in step 2, select it, and select Open. Wait for TurboTax to finish transferring the info over. If you have a PDF of last year's return stored on your computer, you can do this.   Here's how to transfer your PDF into TurboTax Desktop:   Sign into your TurboTax account to access returns for 2023. Choose New Tax Return from the File menu. Select Begin or Start a New Return under Manage Your Returns. On the Let's Get a Jumpstart on Your 2024 Taxes screen, select Use a tax return that's on my computer. Follow any on-screen instructions.

We'd love to help you complete your tax return, but need more information. Can you please clarify your question? Are you talking about estimated payments?

Catina T,   None of your suggestions work.  There was no SHOW to click on.  There was no ADD a STATE to click on.  I Do not need to print my return,  I already did that.  I just need to data to be there for next years import.  I also never got a confirmation email so had to go the irs.gov and they said they received my return but it has been 21 days and no money deposited so until I get my refund I can't be sure it was received.   Yes, I am very frustrated with Turbo Tax.  
Any updates or work around this?  I just received this message and would like to avoid printing 100s of pages.

Guys after looking at reddit, I learned that the payer who issued the 1099NEC did so in error. Because IRS says: Payments made with a credit card or payment card and certain other types of payments, including third-party network transactions, must be reported on Form 1099-K by the payment settlement entity under section 6050W and are not subject to reporting on Form 1099-MISC or Form 1099-NEC.   Wild that I had to learn this myself and these Turbo Tax experts don't mention anything about this... I don't have time to try to get 1099-NEC payer to try to cancel my 1099-NEC to be 0, so I guess I have to report all the 1099NECs, 1099Ks, and then make a huge miscellaneous expense in schedule C with the description: "1099-NEC received in error, income already reported on 1099-Ks" or maybe "Erroneous 1099-NEC received"
why would you have code 1d in block seven if you are well over 59 1/2
I don't have sales sections at all. Just one sum for a loss. I'm confused as to how to enter the information in the 1099-B section. Any help appreciated?
