I submitted the wrong forms and ended up paying more in taxes. I used turbotax to submit my taxes as a resident for tax purposes (which I’ve done for years), but there were changes to my residency last year and I didn’t realize that my status changed to a non-resident for tax purposes, so I should’ve used something like sprintax. Since I filed taxes as a resident, I reported income I shouldn’t have and ended up paying more taxes. Although in my case, I received a smaller refund than the one I should’ve received. Should I try to amend my taxes?

It depends on when you choose to have it debited. If you want to check the debit date you specified, look on the filing instructions for your return. It will tell you the debit date the IRS or State will deduct the payment. If you did not print them out you can view them using the following steps: TurboTax Online In TurboTax Online, sign into your account. You should be on your Tax Home page. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents. Select 2024, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this just gets you into the right menu). Once you're in your return, you can navigate around as usual. Click Tax Tools (in the black bar on the left of your screen) and then click select Print Center.

I moved abroad in September 2024 and will return to the USA in September 2025. My understanding is that I can file an amendment to my 2024 tax return to account for the fact that I spent 4 months of the calendar year abroad. What is the procedure for filing such an amendment? Will I have to also file an amendment for the 2025 tax year, or can I already declare that I was away for 8 months when I file? Thanks.

Is it a dollar for dollar difference? If I contribute let’s say $100 to my 403 B at work along with the 50% employer match, will I pay $100 less in taxes come April next year?

If someone is a licensed/ordained clergy and works for a ministry non-profit in a clergy-related role (but they do not work for a church), can they receive a housing allowance as long as their employer gives them a letter that they have designated a portion of their salary as a housing allowance? (like the jail chaplain example being discussed)

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities. There is no rule as to which one will come in first or how long it will be between their arrival in your account.
TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer. “21 days” is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:
https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/
Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control. TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.
You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:
https://www.irs.gov/refunds
To track your state refund:
https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr
If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing

Did you e-file? Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”
When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted. The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected. If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:
https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/
If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here? (Allow 24 - 48 hours after acceptance to look)
https://www.irs.gov/refunds
Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?” Or “Rejected?” Or “Printed?”

I have overcontributed to my 401k in 2024 by $3,000 due to having 2 employers. I have earned $10 on the deferral. I have contacted my 401k administrator. They corrected the issue and returned the excess contribution of $3,000 and $10 gain attributable to the excess contribution prior Apr 15, 2025. I have adjusted the information on my W2 this way: 1. I have added $3,000 to my Federal Taxable Wages in Box 1 2. I have taken out $3,000 from Box 12 (elective deferrals to qualified plans) This then showed as income on my 1040 under line 1a and this way I am including the excess deferral in my income. I anticipated that my employer would issue a corrected W2 to reflect the above. However, they did not. Is this OK then to report it in TurboTax this way? If not, do I have to amend my tax return to report it differently? I realize that the gain of $10 will be reported in my miscellaneous income when I file 2025 taxes based on 1099 R I will receive.

No. You cannot just keep track of the losses yourself. You must file so the state/federal have record of your losses.
