TurboTax uses the word "accepted".   The IRS uses the word "received."   FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE: https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund How it works Where's My Refund shows your refund status: Return Received – We received your return and are processing it. Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown. Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.  

Does it make a difference if I just choose to not claim the mileage for 2025 or going forward? A lot of questions I don't have the answers to and the deduction was insignificant all along. Had I known this hassle, I would have never claimed to begin with....lesson learned going forward.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE IRS/STATE     TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-audit/turbotax-audit-support/L6AcMoNFD_US_en_US?uid=m5z7by9u     https://intuit.taxaudit.com/audit-defense/help/contact     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/internal-revenue-service/got-cp2000-notice-irs/L7Da6em2t_US_en_US?uid=m4of6ngd

No, your  solo 401-K contribution would be entered on Form 1040, schedule 1.This would be your schedule C net income less one half of your self-employment tax and your retirement plan contribution for yourself.    Internet research will indicate that there are alternative methods of treating this, but the authoratative IRS interpretation can be found in the IRS article.   You can learn more in this IRS article.   [Edited 6:36 AM 2/20/26 PST] @hbb8344     

this is a 100 billion dollar company that can’t code in a form that the IRS provided December 15, 2025. I have spoken to others saying H&R has the form also and already received their refund. I think it’s time to forget this website and use someone else. 

It makes sense that children born in 2026 should not be included on the 2025 return, but why does Turbotax not allow users to complete IRS Form 4547 for children born in 2026 when filing? Is an update coming that supports this?
