I already went through the options in that thread, before I wrote my post. - They are attaching PDF files, so I assume they are using browser. I am using desktop version. I didn't attach anything. -  I tried changing the security settings discussed (as I said in my post), they didn't help. -  I saved, closed, reopened TT, ran update (none found). That didn't help. Q: Is there a way to reduce the size of the file that TT is uploading in the Desktop edition? What do I try next?

My hero (or heroine).   It was not easy to find, but your link did show me how to file an extension and pay estimated taxes.  If not for you link, I would not have found it.  I worked on the fires in California this year, and I'm blessed with making some extra money, so my tax obligation went up.    I owe you a beer.  We are in Asheville now, soon to head up to Queens (both family visits), then back to California with a brief stop at Amtrak in Chicago.   

here's the latest version of that doc I could find https://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/publications/income/2009/pub10w.pdf   It states:   the eligible student does not have to be enrolled in a degree program or attend full-time for the tuition expenses to qualify.

If you only worked in Virginia, try to delete the SCH OSC using these insturctions:   Windows instructions Open or continue your return. Switch to Forms Mode by selecting the Forms icon. From the menu, select the form you want to remove. After the form is generated in the right pane, select the Delete Form button. Follow any onscreen instructions to remove the form or forms. Mac instructions Open or continue your return. Switch to Forms Mode by selecting the Forms icon. From the menu, select the form you want to remove (if you don't see it, select Open Form at the top). From the Forms menu, select Remove [form name]. Follow any onscreen instructions to remove the form or forms.

I just wasted 2 hours on the phone, this is still not fixed. I needed to file so I selected box c, but will now see if it will let me file an amended return with box b filled out correctly. I'll post this solution if it is successful.

Is there a summary page like in the IRS Pub. 584 workbook where I can list each of the items instead of doing a new form for each item?  Because TT asks for a date item is acquired, I don't think we are supposed to "roll up" the items on the IRS Pub. 584 workbook Schedules 1-19 (e.g., Schedule 1 is Entrance Hall). Why doesn't TT have a question like "Is the address the same for each property item?"?

Why does my TT account say I still owe tax due?   TT does not update after your return has been accepted.  Your account will always show the result of the return you prepared using the software.  TurboTax never knows if you received your refund —or how, when or even if you paid tax due.  Your proof that you paid your tax will be your own bank/credit card records.

ditto for 23 and 24 $79 hard earned bucks that you get for free on other sites like o lt and others i will never use it again plus don't forget they're special offers to grab more cash off of you They dont even store your old returns from previous  years! WTH kind of bullcrap is that! This info comes from someone on a fixed income too! 

Sometimes NY paid family leave appears in Box 14 W-2 , which is not Code A-101, but the program seems to categorize it as an IRC 125.  Please see this response from a previous thread by @AbrahamT   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/business-taxes/discussion/other-additions-subtractions-stmt-225-code-a-101-must-be-entered-helppp/00/2920052#:~:text=Typically%2C%20Code%20A%2D101%20which%20is%20an%20IT%20225%20adjustment%20%C2%A0would%20be%20the%20NYC%20flexible%20benefits%20program%20(IRC%20125)%20which%20usually%20appears%20on%20Box%2014%20input%20on%20your%20W2%2C   Also, if you are getting the error message shown on the image below, and it comes as "0", delete both of them. Before clicking "Continue", remove both "0's" as shown below     

Well, I can't get my test to do the same thing, but there are a number of variables, and my test return is surely not the same as yours.   In any case, yes, do enter Self for line 1 on the 8889, and if you have to make month-by-month entries in the Review after that, then, yes, for Line 3, A1 through A12, answer NONE every chance you get.   If you see the request to enter Self/Family/None on Line 18, then come back and tell me because that means something else. Line 18 is for the coverage month-by-month that you had in 2023.
