@Craig27568 wrote: Can I change my bank account for my tax return if my bank account has been closed If you have filed the tax return, the bank information cannot be changed.  If the IRS cannot direct deposit the refund due to the closed account they will mail a refund check to the address on the tax return.   If you have not filed the tax return, in the File section on Step 2 you can enter the bank information for direct deposit.

I spoke with the SSA and "did ask them why".  They said I should talk to Intuit. I then questioned if they are receiving any of my other documents submitted through Quick employer forms. They have the W2/3 for the following year but no record of the year they are missing. I then gave them the confirmation number emailed to me by intuit stating the acceptance of the forms by the SSA. That confirmation number was unrecognizable to them. What good is a confirmation number if it is not recognized by all parties involved? I realize I can resubmit the forms that I have already paid intuit to submit, but I shouldn't have to.

@MZUNIPEG67    Yeah, deleting and re-entering is a PITA....and TTX totally screwed that up.   True, many to most states won't need or want the actual 8283 at all...(OK, that's a guess om my part). One would have to investigate each state's filing rules to see if it was really needed for the state too.....some may want to see the form if the person is filing a paper copy thru the mail, but usually, e-filing will transfer whatever the state needs in some kind of electronic format..

Once your return is filed, TurboTax has no control over the processing or the timing when the IRS releases your refund.    Have you checked the IRS Where's My Refund site. There is also a Where's My Amended Refund you can check.

Sounds like something got stuck. You can try these things:   Log Out Completely: Before doing anything else, click Sign Out in the TurboTax menu. Clear Cache and Cookies: This removes old, "corrupted" data that might be confusing the website. Use an Incognito (Private) Window: This is the most effective "quick fix" because it launches the browser without any saved history or extensions (like AdBlockers) that often interfere with tax forms. Check Pop-up Blockers: TurboTax often opens forms (like the 1099 PDF) or payment windows in a separate pop-up. Look at the right side of your address bar for a small icon with a "red X"—click it and select "Always allow pop-ups from Intuit." Restart the Browser: Close all open windows of your browser entirely and then reopen it.   Most TurboTax errors happen because the browser is trying to use an old "session" from a previous visit. By clearing the cache or using Incognito mode, you force the browser to establish a brand-new, secure connection with the Intuit servers.

Hmmmmm.......  I checked today and it's still not working in the online version.  Why do Turbotax employees continue to give us false hope and erroneous answers?  Can you tell us why H&R has had this available for weeks and Turbotax has not been able to get their act together on it?  Just be honest please.  

I suggest you look at your Form 1040 to see what the investment income listed on your form is. You are primarily looking for interest, dividends, capital gains, and rental income. It may be that some of your income is listed in the wrong place or some amounts are not correct. Only your adjusted gross income over $250,000 (joint filer) or $200,000 (single filer) is subject to the additional tax. You will see your investment income included on lines 2 through 7 on the Form 1040 and also on Schedule 1, Part 1. You can view your Form 1040 and schedules 1 to 3 by following these steps:   Choose Tax Tools from your left menu bar in TurboTax Online while working in your program Choose Tools Choose View Tax Summary See the Preview my 1040 option in the left menu bar and click on it Choose the Back option in the left menu bar when you are done

@user17709788658    SS?   a 1099-R doesn't have anything to do with Social Security. IF you are attempting to enter your SSA-1099 from Social Security...you are using the wrong software form. The SSA-1099 is in a different menu selection, just below the regular 1099-R form menu selection. ________________________________________   BUT...if you are entering an actual 1099-R (pension, 401k/TSP, but not an IRA) with box 2a somewhat lower due to some after-tax contributions your made....then you do answer YES to that follow-up question....then the box 2a value is used in spite of what the text actually implies. _______________________ Like I said, we really want the software folks to change the question to be what they used in prior years so that they stop misleading people to selecting the wrong answer _______________________________________   Last year (for 2024 taxes)  the question was:     _______________________________ This year (for 2025 taxes), they totally messed it up and needs to be changed:    

Surely someone is referring this issue to their programming staff.  We shouldn't have to fiddle with the dropdown to make it work.  The software needs to be updated to allow multiple downloads from the same institution, as it did in prior years.   We are pleading with you to get this fixed before April 15!

I don’t believe my state, California, needed that form. My form was for federal only as far as they know, and I use the online version. Mine updated fine all was accepted, and I’ve already received my refund. I removed all items and re-entered them. 

Seems the token number was redacted. I will try again:   Your token number is: 9 9 4 0 0 1 0 2-9 0 1 4 0 3 7 7   Ignore the space between digits. I am hoping this time it won't be redacted.   @DaveF1006 

The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/19/2026   You will have to wait for the IRS to either Accept or Reject your filed federal tax return. If the return is rejected you can make the necessary changes and e-file again. If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return. Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.
