My wife has a basis carryover as of 12/31/2024 of $1,108 - FROM NOWHERE!   Filling jointly.  Both over 50.  No employer plans.  2024 IRA contributions before 4/15/2025 = $8000 for myself and $3081 for my wife.  Both completed 2024 RMDs on time. No forms 5329 or 8086 in 2023 return.

A pdf is not the one you needed.  You needed the tax file.   And...if you want to transfer 2023 to 2024 you have to do that at the very beginning, before you enter any 2024 information, so you will need to start over.   How to transfer last year’s return?    https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/transfer-last-year-return-turbotax-online/L279eUvY2_US_en_US?uid=m6ayqk1s

NOWHERE in the desktop version search area does it explain how to find the place to put in the IP PIN. What I should say, is that the instructions provided are WRONG. They say to select Federal then Other Tax Situations then you will see where to input the IP PIN. The problem is that there is no “Federal” menu item or tab on the desktop version. Other instructions I found say to search “IP PIN” using the SEARCH function in the desktop version, then click “Jump to” when the results appear, but no “Jump to” link presents itself after searching on “IP PIN.” So, the instructions from Turbo Tax are all but useless. But, I opened my 2024 return and, after a few hours of searching around, I accidentally came across it. I clicked on the tab that says “PERSONAL” then saw a link which says “Other Tax Situations”. Assuming it was under “Other Tax Situations” as in the wrong instructions, I clicked on it and scrolled down and found it in the section titled “Other Return Info” which says “Identity Protection PIN” and clicked on “Start” to the right of it. When you click on “Start”, you encounter a question that asks “Did anyone in your family get an Identity Protection PIN from the IRS for this year’s taxes?” You then click “Yes” as the answer to that question and it takes you to all of the people listed as the filers and dependents in your return. You click “Add” for each one you want to enter.
