Does that mean you have not received a state tax refund that you are expecting?   Some states are fairly quick with refunds, while other states can take a long time processing returns--even several weeks--as they crack down on detecting fraudulent returns.     Here are some things you should check:   First, you need to be sure your state return was successfully filed.   If you efiled, be sure your efiled state return was accepted.  If you used Online TurboTax, you can check by looking at the Tax Home in your Online account.   Or did you choose to file by mail instead?  TurboTax does not mail it for you.  If you chose that method, you have to print, sign, date, and mail it.   The FAQ below tells how to check on a state refund and has a link for your state.  Then you'll see information for your state (which may include info on how long it takes in your state) and a link to go to your state's "Where's My Refund" tool.   Your state may also have a FAQ section at it's "Where's My Refund" site that tells how long to expect in your state.   Choose your state from the table in this FAQ: FAQ:  How do I track my state refund? https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_...

Yes, in most countries, you should include cryptocurrencies earned through Coinbase Earn in your tax return. Here's a simple explanation:   Why? Coinbase Earn rewards you with small amounts of crypto for learning about different projects. Even though it feels like a free reward, tax authorities (like the IRS in the U.S., HMRC in the U.K., and others globally) generally consider it taxable income.   What You Need to Report: The fair market value (in your local currency) of the crypto at the time you received it. This is treated as ordinary income.   Later, if you sell or trade that crypto, you'll also need to report any capital gains or losses from that transaction.

@ JBearMD2  wrote: Thank you for responding. I e-filed.  TT says my return is complete and accepted by the IRS.  The IRS site says my return was never received. They even sent a notice of non-file.  Maybe the IRS is just in the process of updating, but it still makes me nervous.   I assume you are talking about a 2024 return.   How long has it been since you efiled?   Was it relatively recently or a number of days ago?   "They even sent a notice of non-file."       How was that sent?   Are you referring to an actual physical notice, such as a CP59 notice sent to you by postal mail?    If so, that seems awfully early for a 2024 return so soon after filing deadline; a CP59 notice is often for a prior year.  In any case, it should show the tax year in question.       Or are you referring to a downloadable PDF letter called "Verification of non-filing" in the transcript section of your IRS account?  If so, that's commonly in people's accounts until the IRS begins processing a 2024 return, then it's replaced by the 2024 return transcript in progress.   Are you due a Federal refund?   If so, you haven't yet mentioned (at least not explicitly) the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool.   What do you see there?   Does it, too, say no information is found? https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund   Be sure you enter the correct tax year, SSN, and filing status. Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount.   Do not include any state refund or any total refund or net refund (Fed and State) that TurboTax may have provided on a screen.   Look at your actual Federal return to get the Federal refund amount, i.e., your Form 1040, Line 35a.   I'm a fellow user and don't work for TurboTax.   You may get other comments in this forum during the day.  You can discuss this with the folks at TurboTax Support and let them further guide you.   They can verify if their records show the efile was successful or not and advise you on how to proceed.   Also, when you have them on the phone, ask them for your unique efile identifier, which you may need if you end up talking to the IRS.  I think it's called an MeF Submission ID.   FAQ: What is the TurboTax phone number? https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/what-is-the-turbotax-phone-number/00/25632   We can also tell you how to phone the IRS to speak to a live IRS agent, but I'd start with TurboTax Support.
Thank you - I got confirmation today that my 4 were ok! 9 sounds like a whole a lotta work! 😉
@DianeW777 Can you help me with Oregon specifically? If I had just losses this year, do I need to file so that I can carryforward the losses? Or can I not file and just keep track of the losses myself?

I am in FL, a disaster area per the IRS for Milton.  My understanding is that there was an automatic extension to May 1, 2025 for federal returns.  I thought I would be able to gather all info by then but I need additional time, I am now past the 15th of April, but would like to file an extension.  Can I still do so? Using Form 4868, I tried with Turbotax but could not. Can I paper file or use freefilefillableforms  Thank you

When did you file 2023?  Did you mail it?  If you used the Online version this year to do your 2023 return that was wrong.   Online is only good for 2024.   If you filed 2023 late or mailed it then use 0 for the AGI to efile 2024.   The IRS won’t have it in the right database to verify you for  2024.

If you are required to use an IP PIN to file your taxes, they won't get accepted.  Contact the IRS to find out why.   An IP PIN (Identity Protection PIN) which is a 6-digit number that the IRS provides to taxpayers to validate their identity, you will need to contact the IRS.    Refer to the following TurboTax Help articles What's an IP PIN? Do I need one? and How do I get my 6-digit IP PIN?
The answer you seek is in the original post. I correctly classified the 1099R for my conversion.   Form 1040-X and 8606 were mailed in a week ago.   Done playing with you. Have a nice evening.
If there are zeroes in any of the field, leave the spaces blank.   Refer to the TurboTax Help article Where do I enter my 1095-A? for navigation instructions.  
You will have to contact the company that issued you the form to find out their EIN number.
I solved the issue. I had to go into the Tax Tools (?)  menu on the left and manually delete the form in question. Turns out that when you enter info and remove it later, it leaves the forms in place.
