If your 2023 return was rejected when you tried to e-file it last year, then you should have fixed it and re-filed or you could have filed it by mail.  It sounds like you did neither of those things.   You can still file your 2023 return, but e-filing is closed for 2023, so the only way to file it now is by mail.  You need to print it, sign it and date it in ink, and mail it to the IRS.    If you did not pay your TurboTax fees, you will need to pay before you can print the returns.     When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.   Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.     Get your 2023 return "under control" and then make another attempt to sort out the issues with your 2024 return.   If the IRS is requiring you to verify your identity to get your 2024 refund, then you will have to take the time and make the efforts needed to do that, or you will never receive that refund.  

State returns amended or original, get accepted only after the federal return gets accepted.  If you got an acceptance response for your amended state return, then you can assume your federal return was also accepted.   See the following TurboTax help article for instructions on how to check the status of your return:   How do I check my e-file status?   @ecsmile8

Please explain what you are really trying to do.  You cannot amend a W-2.   A W-2 is a tax document issued to you by an employer--you cannot change it yourself.   Did you file a tax return and forgot to enter a W-2--and now do you need to amend the tax return to include that W-2?   Or did you enter it incorrectly?   Provide some details.

When a return is rejected, it is not really filed.  If you were not able to electronically file your 2023 return, you should have mailed it in.  If you did not then you never filed a 2023 return.  If this is the case, you should file your 2023 return.     You should also contact the Taxpayer Advocate Service.  They should be able to assist if you have not been able to resolve your issue by contacting the IRS.   You can view, download, and print your tax returns going back up to 7 years if you filed with TurboTax by following the steps below:    If this is the first time you are logging into your account this year:   Sign in to your TurboTax account and select Continue on the screen showing your prior-year summary.

We loaned a business money and the business declared bankruptcy in 2024.  It was an unsecured loan so we received nothing from the liquidation of the business.  The business was supposed to pay interest on the loan but never did.  

Q. If I sell my home that I lived in for 24 months out of the last 5 years but it was rented the rest of the time am I still allowed the home sale capital gains exclusion? A. Yes.    Furthermore, if the entire rental time occurred after you moved out, you do not have to prorate your exclusion amount.  However, you do have to "recapture" (include as income) the depreciation you claimed or should have claimed.    The TurboTax (TT) interview goes smoother if you enter the sale as a home sale and not as the sale of rental property.  You will make a single manual entry for the depreciation amount. 

To complete and file a 2022 and 2023 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the desktop editions for each tax year required from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/   A prior year tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed using TurboTax.  Use a separate envelope for each tax year being mailed.

It normally takes the IRS about 30 days after you apply for the payment plan before they mail you information about your plan.  You should call the IRS and speak to an agent to verify that you have an application approved and find out when and how payments need to be made.   Call the IRS: 1-800-829-1040 hours 7 AM - 7 PM local time Monday-Friday When calling the IRS do NOT choose the first option re: "Refund", or it will send you to an automated phone line.
