If you are a single member LLC, you should not be using TurboTax BUSINESS>  You should be using TurboTax Home and Business or TurboTax Premium online.  If you are a single member LLC and did not elect to be treated as a S- Corp, you would be filing a Schedule C instead of a 1065.  A 1065 if a partnership return.  If you are using TurboTax Business, you will need to switch to Home and Business or Premium.  If you chose to be treated as an S-Corp then you would file form 1120S using TurboTax BUSINESS.

Thank you for your prompt reply. Unfortunately, downgrading to regular Premium was not an option, and after spending hours doing my taxes, I wasn't about to opt to erase and start over. After paying for the product and filing my taxes, I requested a $70 refund, since I did not intend to sign up for Premium Live and did not use the Live feature. This request was denied. I am frustrated because I feel that I was somehow routed into the Live product without my knowledge or through a marketing trick. I have discovered that other customers have experienced the same thing. I am a long-time customer and feel that I have been swindled. I am considering reporting Intuit to the Better Business Bureau and taking other actions if my refund request is not honored.

Please help me understand.  I have mutual fund investments that have eligible income from US government securities.  Are those exempt from federal tax?  or just State?  I don't file state income tax.  But if applicable, do I calculate the percentage using box 1a  or 1b totals from the 1099 DIV?    
If you agree, nothing with the state. I suggest help to ensure they are right. For Accuracy guarantee submission and TurboTax Audit Support Center.

I have owned the house in San Diego since 2002.
have a prolem becacause the homevalue is too high to qualify. HOW do I remove that worksheet from my KS taxes???
That is correct. If you received a fee as a fiduciary (trustee), you would report that fee as Other miscellaneous income.
The address to mail your IRS payments depends on the state that you live in. Refer to the IRS website Pay by check or money order for instructions to mail your payment.

Hi all — I’m looking for some clarity on how the IRS treats suspended rental losses in a specific situation. Here’s my scenario: I sold my primary residence in California in 2024. I lived in it for 4 years, then rented it out for 1 year, and then sold it. I qualified for the Section 121 capital gains exclusion, so no gain was taxed except for $7K depreciation recapture (which I’m accounting for). During the 1 year I rented it, I reported a $10,000 rental loss on my tax return (Schedule E), mostly from depreciation and expenses. My AGI is over $150K, so the $10K passive loss is currently suspended due to the passive activity loss (PAL) rules. My question is: 👉 Can I deduct the entire $10K rental loss in the year of sale, since I’ve disposed of the property in a fully taxable transaction? Or does the IRS not consider this a "disposition of a passive activity" since it was only rented for one year and mostly a primary residence? Would love to hear from anyone who’s had a similar case or has insight into how this is treated. I’ve read the regs and looked at Form 8582, but it seems like this case sits in a bit of a gray area. Thanks in advance!
