No, form 3903 has to do with moving expenses, it has nothing to do with 1099-Rs. The bug is just in the email alert system; it means you can't sign up to get an alert when 1099-Rs are fully supported in TurboTax 2025. It doesn't imply there will be any problem with 1099-R processing once they are supported. There is an early post which indicated 1099-Rs will be supported in the 1/21 update. We can all check after that to see if that is correct.

It is NOT saving my choices in the "Which months?" screen. I'm not changing my answers every time I complete that screen. It is LOSING my answers on Save. As a result, it is taxing my HSA distribution on Form 8899 which is carried over to Schedule 1, Item 8F, which is carried over to 1040 Line 8. Are you part of the Turbotax programming team?

Rather clumsy approach. Why don't the programmers just fix it since it has worked in all prior years.

It is very difficult to use medical expenses as an itemized deduction, so if you will not have enough to enter, the x-ray fee will have no effect anyway. We cannot tell you how to obtain that fee--you could try calling your primary care physician's office to see what lab they got results from and then seek out the statement. Or check your credit card and bank statements to see if you made a payment to a lab. You can only enter the part that you paid for yourself.
MEDICAL EXPENSES
The medical expense deduction has to meet a rather large threshold before it can affect your return. The amount of medical (including dental, vision, etc.) expenses that will count toward itemization is the amount that is OVER 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. You should only enter the amount that you paid in 2025—do not include any amounts that were covered by insurance or that are still outstanding. Of course, your medical expenses plus your other itemized deductions still have to exceed your standard deduction before you will see a difference in your tax due or refund.
To enter your medical expenses go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Medical>Medical Expenses
2025 STANDARD DEDUCTION AMOUNTS
SINGLE $15,750 (65 or older/legally blind + $2000)
MARRIED FILING SEPARATELY $15,750 (65 or older/legally blind +1600)
MARRIED FILING JOINTLY $31,500 (65 or older/legally blind + $1600)
HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD $23,625 (65 or older/legally blind + $2000)

Thanks for the articles. It appears that link #2 and #3 contents are identical. I'll give it a try later when my W2 and 1099s are available. Will be back to ask questions if I have more to ask.

Is your income listed in Box 1 on your W-2 more than 176,100? If so, the full tip amount you reported to your employer on Form 4070 may not be listed in Box 7 on your W-2 since Box 7 on your W-2 only reports Social Security Tips. To clarify, is this the situation you are experiencing? If so, what is reported on your W-2 Box 1 and on your W-2 Box 8? @Lakeviewotter
