It depends. You may be able to deduct Medicare HMO premiums, even while working full-time, provided you itemize deductions on your federal tax return.    These premiums are considered qualified medical expenses.    However, they are only deductible to the extent that your total medical expenses for the year exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income (AGI).    

I was taking it to mean that you did not have any schedule C income in 2025 and just wanted the form gone. Certainly I could have misunderstood and ParticiaV's more elegant answer is the ticket. I would only add to PatriciaV's, that if you had 2025 Schedule C income and have to enter expenses, and you used a vehicle in your business, then you will have (and will be asked about) that you converted the vehicle to personal use and get to calculate depreciation recapture for the vehicle. There is a nice post on that issue at: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/sale-of-personal-vehicle-i-used-for-business/00/3137272

This is per eligible individual, meaning a married couple both over 65 could get $12,000. Important: This bonus deduction is temporary, lasting from 2025 through 2028. Income limitations: It phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $75,000 for single filers and $150,000 for joint filers. The amount is calculated on Schedule 1-A, Part V, with that amount flowing to Form 1040 Line 13b Look at your Form 1040 - You can view your Form 1040 plus Schedules 1, 2 and 3 at any time using the online editions.

You should review your fees in your TurboTax account to find out what type of fee you are being charged.   Sometimes you start with the Free Edition (which is typically a simple form 1040), but as you enter more complex forms or sections you might be required to upgrade depending on your individual situation.    To locate the fees section, view the link below : How do I review my fees in TurboTax Online?    To see why are you being charged or to remove any non-desirable fees, click on the link below: Why am I being charged for TurboTax Free Edition?   For any other question in regard to your issue, go to: TurboTax Phone Number  

You are seeing this because the amount of Medicare taxes withheld in box 6 is Not exactly 1.45% of the Medicare wages in box 5.  Remove any cents for the Medicare wages and see if the upgrade message goes away. OR - Delete the w-2 and re-enter.  Make sure the amount in box 6 is 1.45% or less of the amount in box 5.

For all of you that replied thanks. TT has a new update today that takes care of this problem.  I loaded the update and went in to download my account statement.  It asked to accept local network access.  I clicked yes and it downloaded my brokerage statement.   Again thanks to everyone, Jeff
