Si programaste el pago de tus impuestos con TurboTax, debiste haber recibido un correo electrónico verificando que el pago fue programado.  Si programaste el pago mediante IRS en su página de Pago directo con cuenta bancaria ellos también mandan un correo electrónico con un número de recibo.  La otra forma de verificar es revisando en tu cuenta bancaria, para ver si los pagos ya salieron.     También puedes crear una cuenta directamente con el IRS.  De esta forma puedes tener acceso a todos los servicios del IRS, que incluye hacer pagos en línea directamente de tu cuenta, ver tus pagos, ver las declaraciones que hayas presentado.  Para hacerla visita el sitio del IRS.

Working on 2025 taxes.  Vet school daughter not a dependent.  We paid her tuition and expenses and were reimbursed from 529 plan.  Adjusted qualified expenses exceed 529 distribution amount on 1099-Q.     Previous posts indicate I do not need to enter any of this into TT as long as I have documentation/worksheets that shows qualified expenses exceed 529 distributions.  Is that correct?   In previous TT versions, the interview asked all the right questions and filled out the ESA/QTP worksheet for me.  This year (2025 version), the interview does not ask the questions to populate the worksheet.  Something is off.  I have used TT for 20 years.  I am good at following directions.  Is there a software flaw?

The common situations page is reached when entering 1099-Q information for 529 withdrawals. However, despite checking the expenses other than tuition box, nothing is offered to enter room and board, computer and software expenses. This has been available and used it last year which has been verified by looking at the Student Information Worksheet created for the 2024 Tax year.

If you are using TurboTax Online and haven't yet filed the return:   Open your return From the left column, choose My Info In the My Info section, you can update information about your dependents, and delete or add dependents. This information is used by the program to calculate the amount of any Child and Other Dependent Tax Credits to which you may be entitled. See this tax tips article for information about the rules for claiming dependents. As @DoninGA stated, if you already filed your 2025 return, you would need to amend it to make a change. You'd need to wait until any refund is issued or additional tax payment processed to amend the return. In addition, the Form 1040-X for amending a Federal return is currently expected to be available on or about February 18, 2026.    @mrmickely

@phiphong178   I just found out that Schedule A line 5 is limited if you have a high income.  If your AGI on 1040 line 11b is over 500,00 (250,000 for married filing separately) you have to fill out the State and Local Tax Deduction Worksheet to figure the amount to enter online 5e.  Do you fall into that income level?
