If your extension request is rejected by the IRS, you can correct the errors and retransmit the extension form.   If you're not able to correct the errors, you'll need to file a paper extension Form 4868 and include an estimated payment of your taxes due.  

Yes, if you both have separate TurboTax accounts.   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?  

I had a situation where a portion a of a JTWROS 1099-DIV was filed with my deceased mother's taxes. I'm using a nominee statement to clarify which part of the 1099-DIV I am responsible for sine I held the account almost 4 months in 2024.

You can follow these steps to delete a form:   Windows instructions Open or continue your return. Switch to Forms Mode by selecting the Forms icon. From the menu, select the form you want to remove. After the form is generated in the right pane, select the Delete Form button. Follow any onscreen instructions to remove the form or forms. Mac instructions Open or continue your return. Switch to Forms Mode by selecting the Forms icon. From the menu, select the form you want to remove (if you don't see it, select Open Form at the top). From the Forms menu, select Remove [form name]. Follow any onscreen instructions to remove the form or forms.

It is happening in 3 different states that you are trying to file? Did you file your fed already?  If not, another suggestion maybe... Go through your federal return again.  Maybe something there is affecting the states.  Sometimes things that are allowed to pass in fed won't fly in states.  After you run through fed, run through one of your states and then try to send that state (instead of trying all of the states just to find out that won't work).

You still don't understand the question.  When you arrive at the TT page for filing it asks a series of questions in order to proceed.  WHICH ONE DO I SELECT?  How can I file the return FIRST without selecting an option.  There is no: file now, pay later option.   Thanks for your help . . . but you are a little late considering today is "tax day".   I already opted to choose create a payment plan and moved forward with that.   Merry Christmas!

If your business is: a Partnerships (including LLCs), C Corps (Form 1120), and S Corps (Form 1120S)   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. If your business uses a fiscal year, you need to file your tax return by the 15th day of the third month following the close of your tax year. For example, if your business uses an April 1 to March 31 tax year, your business tax return would be due June 16, 2025 instead of March 17, 2025. April 15, 2025 - Taxes for C corporations are due. Businesses organized as a C corporation need to file Form 1120 by April 15, 2025, if they are a calendar year business. If your business uses a fiscal year, you need to file your tax return by the 15th day of the fourth month following the close of your tax year. For example, if your business uses an April 1 to March 31 tax year, your business tax return would be due July 15 instead of in April. September 15, 2025 - Deadline for extended partnership and S corporation returns October 15, 2025 - Deadline for extended C corporation returns the extension time has passed.  All you can do is file your business return late.   Refer to the TurboTax article  Every Tax Deadline You Need To Know for more information.

It would depend on what state you are filling for, but if your state allowed you to deduct itemized deductions that weren't deducted on your federal tax return, then there may be a remedy for you. You would have to file the federal return first. Then go back and modify it to move the health insurance deduction over to the itemized deduction schedule A, then prepare the state return and file it separately from the federal return.
