Are you sure that this is a native app and is not using some other development platform? What is your source for this information? It begs the question, why they haven't had a universal binary for 5 years like Quicken, (thankfully no longer a part of Intuit). I do not have any experience with Xcode, aside from it being installed on my Macs. I really need to write some basic apps to get more familiar with it. But I do know that it should be as simple as checking off the universal binary box for any native application that adheres to Apple's basic, intelligent, development guidelines. 

Did you choose to pay your TurboTax fees by having the fees deducted from your federal refund?  If you made that choice, the problem may lie with the third party bank that handles refund processing.       When you choose "refund processing"   TurboTax gets its fees when the IRS releases your refund.  Your refund goes to the third party bank.  The bank takes out your fees and then that bank sends the rest of the refund to you.     What is Refund Processing Service?   How can I see my TurboTax  fees?    https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/intuit-account-billing/review-fees-turbotax-online/L1XnIzgzg_US_en_US?uid=m682vq7k     Santa Barbara Tax Products Group, LLC  (SBTPG) is the bank that handles the Refund Processing Service when you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund. This option also has an additional charge from the bank that processes the transaction.    You can contact them SBTPG, toll-free, at 1-877-908-7228 or go to their secure website www.sbtpg.com        First you need to check the IRS refund site to see if your refund was issued, and look to see how much they issued.   https://www.irs.gov/refunds            

Rosetta 2 is currently automatically installed whether you like it or not on every Apple Silicon Mac. It will be discontinued with macOS version 28. Therefore macOS 27 will be the last macOS that supports any Intel Binaries.  The process for Rosetta on an Apple Silicon Mac is called "oahd," which manages the translation of Intel-based applications to run on Apple Silicon. This process operates automatically in the background when you launch an app that requires Rosetta. Launch an Intel app such as TurboTax '24 and open "Activity Monitor" enter "oahd" into the search field on the top right, set view to all processes. Voila!     It is simply not possible to be running macOS up through macOS 27 on an M1,M2,M3,M4, M5, etc. Mac while using an Intel app and not have "oahd", the Rosetta 2 daemon, running. Executable path: {/usr/libexec/rosetta/oahd} And when macOS 28 is released in September of 2027, or whenever Apple decides to stop supporting Intel Binaries, it will not be possible to run an Intel App.   

My understanding is most consumers will have the 1-year ESU til October 2026; the 3 year version til 2028 is for enterprise/business tho I may be wrong, but I suppose there's a hack to get that.  Then the LTSC people pop up and say they're good til 2032.  Intuit did provide an extra year of support for the business edition on Win 10.   FWIW, here's more from the Veep. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/articles/community-news-announcements/turbotax-windows-10-desktop-software-end-of-life/05/3708302

@mudtech61 wrote:   The vehicle, which I thought was NOT a business asset since it was titled and the note for it was in my personal name and not the name of the LLC (S-Corp Provision)   can I amend the return to show the vehicle paid off ($37K)    The LLC is taxed as an S-corporation?  When you say it was fully depreciated, do you mean the S-corporation reimbursed you personally via an Accountable Plan?  The S-corporation can't depreciate something it doesn't own, but it can reimburse via an Accountable Plan.   Paying off a loan is not a deduction.

@Newlifestarts120608 Your choices for 2025 will be married filing jointly or married filing separately.   If you got married in 2024, you had those same choices for 2024.     The only way you could have legitimately used "Head of Household" for 2024 would have been if you and your spouse lived apart for at least the last six months of 2024.       Am I Head of Household?   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-filing-status/qualify-head-household-2021/L0NxUtVc2_US_en_US?uid=m5x19jkx What is a "qualifying person" for Head of Household?   If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your marital status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.       https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/taxation/married-person-claim-head-household-filing-status/L078u1RSW_US_en_US?uid=m62dkc4a  

you can transfer the xxxxx.tax2024 file to a thumb drive then transfer it to a new computer. That's all that is needed so 2024 data transfers to 2025. It is not possible to transfer the 2024 desktop app from your old to your new. That requires reinstallation on the new one. 

How to Access prior year online returns https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/27010 If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2024 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2024. I had to go though about 12 screens. If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups. Or request a transcript from the IRS https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript Or get a copy of your return using form 4506 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

Are you asking about filing 2025 tax return next April?  Or your 2024 return?   For 2025 you might qualify as Head of Household.   Since you are married you need to live apart from your spouse for the last 6 months of the year.  How did you file for 2024?   Do you qualify for Head of Household? https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/family/help/do-i-qualify-for-head-of-household/00/25539
