Agreed on the search function.  Not out of the assistant, I meant the 'sign in' box.     When you click on search, the sign in to Intuit screen pops up, but if you close the sign in box, you can use that search box to get the Jump-to links - without assistant's ''help'' .     Are you on a Mac?     or are you signed in to the product TurboTax.  If you are, maybe it is bypassing the sign in screen to opt out of the digital assistant.   Try signing out if you are signed in and see if you can get to the regular desktop search, like in my screenshot above.   That is the search box you want back, right?     To see if you are signed in, go to FILE in upper right, and right above the Exit button, it will say Sign in or tell you that you are already signed in.   @user17703386460    In any case, glad you found the SEP IRA entry

Thank you for promptly replying  to my query.  I followed the instructions provided.  The form I deleted was the 1099-R form.  I re-entered the 1099-R information, via the TurboTax 2025 desktop program process.  I entered all the information requested by TurboTax from my 1099-R paper form.  Upon running the review process, I got the same results I received as explained in my initial query.  Do you have any other suggestion(s) that will rectify this situation.  

Hi @Dman , I see this same problem in 2026: TT Business for MA state tax does not recognize that income was distributed to the beneficiary.  As a result the trust has a state tax bill, and the 2K-1 is filled with zeros.  I have to manually edit Schedule IDD (in Forms mode) to make lines 2, 7, 12, and 17 match their respective prior lines.  Also, the "percentage of total income" has to be entered as 100, but later changed to 1.

Yes, you must report the interest you made in 2025. U.S. taxpayers are taxed on worldwide income, even if the interest is compounding and not paid out. If the foreign bank didn't issue a statement or tax form, you are still required to report the interest that accrued from April–December 2025 as foreign interest income.    Depending on the account balance, you may also have FBAR (FinCEN 114) and‌ Form 8938 filing requirements.   Because your 2025 return is already filed, you would file an amendment to add the missed interest.     Amend TurboTax Online  Amend TurboTax CD/Download 

Okay but my January and February are empty because i didn't have anything for those months. So i start off in march. But when i try to put 1.00 in my column c it won't allow me to just do that do u happen to know what to do then?

You can clear your return and start over as long as you haven't:    Submitted payment  Deducted the TurboTax fee from your refund or  Registered your product.   If you've done any of these things, you'll need to manually edit your return.  You can also downgrade your product without erasing all your info.   For more information see How do I clear and start over?

Unfortunately, it is unknown when a fair market value calculator will be available.   In the meantime, I suggest using these resources:   The Salvation Army Donation Value Guide TurboTax Tax Tips Guide & Video: Charitable Contributions.  There is a video within this guide about estimating the value of clothing donations. IRS Publication 561: Determining the Value of Donated Property

The app should update to match the website, but you may need to fix your rejected return on the app so you can still file free if it does not.  If you signed in/out on the app, it should sync with the app, but you could try clearing your cache/cookies in the app,    @Johnrmclin 

According to the TurboTax Help Article How do I clear and start over?    To erase your return and start over:   TurboTax Online Select Tax Tools from the left menu, then Tools. Select Clear & Start Over. Select Yes to confirm. You can also access it from Switch Products in the left menu.   TurboTax Mobile App From the home screen, select More from the bottom menu. Select Clear and Start Over. Select I want to clear my tax data to confirm. Note - You can also downgrade your product without erasing all your info.

The panel was made by Eaton/ Cutler Hammer. I have had direct contact with Eaton and the comment is they are working on it. Note also that if you try for a QMID for other panel manufactures like GE, Siemens, Square D. They all dropped the ball. The real problem with TurboTax, outside of the enabling section was that I had to run through the IRS form and manually input things in a number of places, some of which were a kluge, in order to even get the heat pump (which had a QMID) to provide a credit.
