If your LLC is a single member LLC or you share the LLC with your spouse, you don't file a separate extension because you report your LLC profits or losses on your Schedule C.   If your LLC is  is: a Partnerships (including LLCs), C Corps (Form 1120), and S Corps (Form 1120S), the extension time has passed.  All you can do is file your business return late.     March 17, 2025 - Tax returns are due for some business types (partnerships and S corporations). Businesses taxed as partnerships (including multi-member LLCs) and S corporations need to file Form 1065 or Form 1120-S, respectively, by March 17, 2025, if they are a calendar year business.

The PSO deduction is a way for allow Public Safety Officers to exclude up to $3,000 for health insurance premiums from their pension.

After starting the return under "Federal Taxes" go to "Other Tax Situations". File an Extension will be one of the options. Remember, extension is for time to file, not pay.

Yes, you can claim a deduction for expenses you incurred to attend a convention of a charitable organization as a delegate or officer. It's considered performing services for the organization. For details see "Out-of-Pocket Expenses in Giving Services" on page 5 of IRS Publication 526. You enter the expenses in TurboTax as a contribution to the charity. Contributions to charity are an itemized deduction. It will not make any difference in your tax unless your total itemized deductions are more than your standard deduction.  

In the items you noted, it's not important whether it's Box 12a, 12b, etc.  They are all Box 12 and you want to look for the capital letter code in order to report these items in your W-2.  If you had HSA contributions they'll be in Box 12 with a code W.  That's how you'll enter it in the W-2 section to get the HSA section to show the amount.  

You can file an extension. The extension gives you until October 15, 2025 to file your taxes without getting a failure to file penalty.  You don't get extra time to pay your taxes so you must pay any taxes that you may have that are due by April 15, 2025 so you won't be assessed the failure to pay penalty.   Refer to the TurboTax Help article How do I file an IRS tax extension?.  If you need to file a state extension, review the article How do I file an extension for my personal state taxes?

Remember that an extension does not give you more time to pay.   You need to pay your tax due by April 15.   The extension only gives you more time to prepare and file your tax return forms.   https://turbotax.intuit.com/irs-tax-extensions/   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-extension/need-file-extension-personal-state-taxes/L32Mt8ZNv_US_en_US?uid=m9a3q808
