Thx for speaking out our mind! I just tried, this issues was NOT resolved at all. I am disappointed that TurboTax is getting worse year after year.    This is a clearly a bug in TurboTax, they do not even have the courage to admit, did not take action to fix it. If this is not a high priority issue fix,  is there any other more severe issues TurboTax working on?   Please TurboTax, do not ignore feedback from 20+ years customer! You need to fix this issue!

No one wrote that., at least I haven't read a post to the effect. What is CLEAR is that there is NO import functionality, which was the primary and MOST USEFUL feature of ItsDeductible when combined with TurboTax.   Thus, what many users want is some method where they can enter donations as they are made throughout the year and then import that data directly into their tax preparation software.

In the Tools window choose the blue button TOPIC SEARCH. On the search line enter 1099-R without quotes. Make the selection in the list and either double-click on it or click the GO button. Next screen:  Did you get a 1099-R in 2025?

First problem I was having was the Fed K-1 form appeared blank in the pdf file using the pdf reader in Windows 11 Edge browser (that's apparently how it reacts to a pdf file with an error).  When I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) and made it the default, then I get the error message but can read and print the page.  Expert PatriciaV on another thread said Turbotax will fix the error in their Feb 13 update.  My partners can't wait that long so I am printing the finicky pages on a real printer, and rescanning to pdf so they and their tax preparers won't have the problem.  Hopefully the IRS will be able to deal with it since I already efiled.

As promised in my earlier posts, I purchased both TurboTax and H&R Block to compare the process. First, some respondents to this thread have mentioned that H&R Block does not have a charity deduction feature. THIS IS FLAT WRONG. I just finished inputting my 2025 charitable deductions into H&R and while this feature exists within the H&R Tax software and not outside (meaning you have to enter items into software at time of doing taxes, not as you donate them as we did in It's Deductible). The process is very similar. I then went to TurboTax, entered all my Income and deductions, etc. On the Charity Deductions, I utilized the PDF file I downloaded from It's Deductible before it went extinct. While this worked by entering each donation as a group of items with a total value, clearly TT wants each individual item entered separately.  To Clarify there is NO IMPORT capability within TT to bring any external file or sync to any external software for Charitable Deductions. In my opinion (unless Intuit provide an import method) the other vendors that are working on It's Deductible clones can only provide the mechanism to enter an item and value it and probably generate a csv or pdf file that would still require you to manually enter donations into TT. While I still prefer the TT software for it ease of use (of course I have had several years of experience with it), the H&R Block offers a suitable user interface, charitable donations feature and came to the same results (Fed & State Taxes owed)

I have the same problem. I am in desktop, but in FORMS mode is not able to choose the itemized deduction for Maryland (although I have selected itemized deduction in my federal return). I cannot delete my state either, it's only allowing me to delete state data but not the whole state return.
