What code is present?  A rollover to a Roth IRA from a traditional IRA (a Roth conversion) would normally have code 2 or 7 but could also have code 1.   If the code is N or R, the transaction performed was a recharacterization of your traditional IRA contribution to make it a Roth IRA contribution instead, not a rollover.

don't know about the AGI situation, but there are 2 PINs which can get confusing:   the 5 digit pin entered during the e-file process which is something that's up to you and will probably default to the one you used last year.   the 6 digit "ID Protection Pin" is what the IRS cares about so if it's rejecting at IRS due to Pin error it's referring to this 6 digit one.  You set this under Other Tax Situations / Other Return Info / Identity Protection PIN   But the 6 digit Pin changes every calendar year, if you didn't opt out from this feature you will have a new one generated and can find it by logging into your IRS account and looking under your profile at https://www.irs.gov/your-account

Mistakes are part of life. How many Space Shuttles have exploded? My career was a Naval Aviator. A mistake while landing on an aircraft carrier at night has no forgiveness; only death. Just a little perspective.  I was an unhappy customer and Turbotax knew it. They fixed the problem and hopefully will not make same mistake for 2025 returns.  

No, you will not be taxed on your benefit unless your total income is over a certain amount. If you have no other income, there is no tax.   If you’re a Single filer, you may need to include up to 50% of your SSDI benefits in your taxable income  if your income falls between $25,000 and $34,000  (or between $32,000 and $44,000 if Married Filing Jointly) and  up to 85% of your benefits if your income exceeds $34,000 (or $44,000 if Married Filing Jointly). Is Social Security Disability Income Taxable?

You need to add back the amount that was claimed as a loss on your Federal return, which would include the depreciation.  Use line 22 unless the loss was not actually claimed on your Federal return.  

The beef is this:     The "print and mail" thing is archaic.    Intuit should support submitting 4868 online (like it does for the main 1040).   In addition to using archaic snail-mail - if a payment is due this requires writing out a physical check, which is also archaic for a lot of people.   

After you enter your dependents, there's a question that asks if you paid more than half the cost of keeping up the home. It's possible that you haven't gotten to that question yet, so based on the information available to the program at the time, the single filing status is best. Once you get to this question and answer it correctly, your filing status will be updated.  

@fredj4 not sure what your question is but if you have this situation and don't have too many sales with adjustments (wash sales, AMD or noncovered categories), you can enter these items as "one by one" in TT with the details, the input screen will have the same boxes 1f etc as the 1099-B.   This will put these items on Form 8949 in your return and there will not be any need to mail the IRS.   The balance of the 1099-B can be entered as a simple sales summary with no adjustment and it will all be consolidated on Schedule D.   If you already filed and it's a question how to mail the IRS you can send the 1099B with Form 8453 and check "Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets (or a statement with the same information)" as the 1099B would constitute the "statement with the same information".

If you haven't filed, you can return to the File section, follow the interview, and make the change.   If you've already filed: You can log into the IRS Payment Options Website Make the bank payment It will override the instalment request If you wish to contact the IRS, you can call toll-free at 800-829-1040
