IRS involvement makes no sense - unless you have sourcing on that other than "I'm hearing rumors" - otherwise you wouldn't be able to use TaxAct or HRB on Win 10 either.

Assuming you have logged in to the correct "Online" account that you used in prior years ...AND provided you did NOT use the "Desktop" software in the prior years.. THEN: With the recent startup of the 2025 "Online" tax software... 1) You will be required to go thru a series of personal questions in the 2025 Online software first to get that started up. 2) After you get several pages of questions into it for 2025, the "Tax Home" selection will show up in the left-side menu. 3) Only then will you be able to see (further down the main page) a selection for "Your tax returns & documents". Clicking on that will show your prior years and allow PDF downloads of the most recent 7 prior years you want to see or save/print.

Did it import everything (If you have any of the following), such as any capital loss or passive loss carryovers, rental property information, refunds applied from 2024 to 2025, asset depreciation or other information from a Schedule C business, etc.? Thanks, as others may be interested in this type of practical information.

SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !
EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records. That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.

My understanding from conversation with customer care (who also provided the 100k figure), is the reason for October is because this is when they start to refresh the online platform for the coming tax season (thru October 2026) - between when they close the system after extension filing deadline, and re-opening the platform for 2025 filing in mid Dec. ItsDeductible is a bit different in that it's used by some people year-round not just during filing season. I suppose the issue is they could have communicated it earlier but presumably didn't make the final decisions for what would be supported for the next filing season until sometime late summer.

you mean extracting the historical data? if so, follow the instructions on the page below, to get your data privacy download from your intuit account (which I assume you have to access ItsDeductible, even if you didn't use Turbotax). You will get a link in the email linked to your account to then get your data download and inside that folder will be a folder for ItsDeductible with your history in an excel format. It may take up to 15 days for them to process the request (mine took 6). https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/access-manage-personal-data-intuit-account/L8nCbA0px_US_en_US?uid=mif0fr2e

Do not click on anything that says "amend" for a return that was rejected. Your rejection etc return did not go to the IRS; it has never been received or processed by the IRS. You do not use the "amend" process for a return that was never sent to the IRS to begin with. Look at the rejection message or rejection code you received--it was emailed to you. If the return was rejected for AGI, AGI does not matter any more. You only need AGI in order to e-file. Since e-filing is closed you do not need AGI. The return has to be printed, signed and dated in ink, and must be mailed in.
If there is something else you are trying to change on the return before you print it and mail it, you will need to use the desktop download software on a full PC or Mac in order to make changes, and then you will have to file it by mail.
Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2024 returns is now permanently closed.
Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2024 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.

If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.
They are available from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific time Monday - Friday

If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late. If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe. Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.
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.

I'm done. I upgraded the one PC I have that could be upgraded. But, every time I turn around Microsoft has broken something else in Windows 11, and I will be moving everything to Linux Mint and running Windows 10 in a VirtualBox. As I said I am done fighting this battle, I've bought H&R Block and it imported my previous Turbo Tax information just fine. At 70+ I am just tired of being abandoned by people who do not see the need to support an obsolescent or obsolete old fogey. I write both C# and GUI Python code on computers than cannot run Win 11 quite well and quite rapidly. If Intuit doesn't want my business any more, all I can quote is a great American General, "NUTS!"

You say "my son"----which is confusing for us. If your BF is your son's biological father then yes, he can claim the child as a dependent and get child-related credits like the child tax credit and maybe earned income credit, as well as file as Head of Household. If you lived with him for the entire year (by the end of 2025) he can also claim you for the non-refundable $500 credit for other dependents.
If your BF is not your child's father, then he can only claim him as a "qualified relative" dependent if the child lived with him for the entire year. But if BF is not the bio-father, then he cannot get the child tax credit, earned income credit or HOH filing status by claiming your child. He would only be able to get the $500 credit for other dependents.
IRS interview to help determine who can be claimed:
