You have to enter it somehow.    Key it in by hand, import it or snap a photo in the mobile app.   ALL of your 2025 W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return.     Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2. After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-forms/get-copy-w-2/L8FTim9MO_US_en_US?uid=m68ee4os   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/import-enter-w-2/L55HzdeDr_US_en_US?uid=m68efe36  

Options: If you inherited money, great, enjoy. It does not go on your tax return. If you inherited the house, it goes on your tax return and the value on date of death is usually used for the basis. If your mom gave you the house in 2009 - was it a life estate? yes - step up basis to date of death value no - it was a gift and she retained interest by living there - you would still get FMV on date of death. usually a gift means the donors basis is used but only if you have control of the property. Since she stayed there, the picture changes.

Thanks for the acknowledgment.  I did mention that in my response above, but let me say what happens otherwise:  Anyone who did not fix and resubmit a rejected tax form should take care of that year's form (2024 in this case) before attempting to submit this year (2025).

Sorry--no.    Windows 10 cannot be used with the desktop download for 2025.    It does not meet the system requirements.  You need Windows 11 or a Mac that meets the system requirements.   If you have Windows 10 and cannot upgrade, you can still use online TurboTax instead.   

When you are finished with your Resident New York state tax return, you can print a copy of all your required forms to be mailed (including assembly instructions and pertinent mailing address of where to send your return).   Assemble your return in the following order: Attach Form IT-201-V (Only if you owe money): This is the payment voucher. If you are getting a refund, skip this. Attach Form IT-201: Resident Income Tax Return (4 pages). Attach Form IT-2: New York requires this form instead of your actual W-2s; you must transcribe the info from your W-2s onto this form.  Do not send a copy(ies) of your W-2s; simply keep them for your own records. Attach any other "IT" schedules: Like IT-225 (modifications) or IT-214 (renter's credit) if the program generated them.   If you are getting a refund (or owe $) mail your return to:   STATE PROCESSING CENTER PO BOX 61000   ALBANY NY 12261-0001   If you owe a balance mail your return to (enclosing a check/money order):   STATE PROCESSING CENTER   PO BOX 15555   ALBANY NY 12212-5555   New York State - 2025 Instructions for Form IT-201 Full-Year Resident Income Tax Return (pg. 2)  

E-filing fee in desktop software Did you purchase desktop software with state software included?  They sell Deluxe both with and without state software--so you have to be careful which one you choose.  And even if it does have the state software download included, that is for preparing the state.  There is an extra $25 fee to e-file the state.  You can avoid the state e-file fee if you print and mail the state instead of e-filing it.

Well, thanks, but this didn't work either.  So, I tried removing all my expenses, all references to SOLD, logging out, clearing cache again but now, even when I tell i I SOLD, it doesn't even come up with a link for depreciated assets, or whether I have carryover for 179.     I'm done.  I give up.  I"m going to TAX ACT or H&R BLOCK.  This is ridiculous.  

You're right. It's not self-employment. Saying it didn't involve work like his main job, and didn't involve an intent to earn money sounds right. That will report it as other income on Schedule 1 line 8z. I think that's the right way to report it.
