We ended up calling support and they told us this year they were having a large number of calls about this and other bugs.  We reloaded another software image from the website.   I would recommend you call them,   on this forum it took 6 weeks for someone recently to respond.

Room and Board expense can offset the tax on a 529 Account / 1099-Q distribution, but Room and Board does not offset a scholarship.  Only Tuition, Fees, Books and supplies can offset the tax on scholarships.    Room and board would not change an education credit.     

TurboTax Desktop 2025 for Mac requires the macOS Sonoma 14 or later Operating System, at least 4 GB of RAM, and 1 GB of hard disk space. A 1 Mbps internet connection is required for activation and updates, along with a 1024x768 or higher screen resolution. It will not run on macOS Ventura 13 or earlier.   For more information see the TurboTax Federal Tax Year 2025 Software Minimum System Requirements 

When you sign in, scroll down to Your tax return and documents and click on 2025, then on  Add a State - -that will open your return so you can get to the Print Center and print the worksheets.    How to access your return post filing   The Print Center is in the Tools menu on the left hand side on the screen, once you get back into your return.  

The Retirement section is available for 1099-R entries.  If you're using TurboTax Desktop, make sure your program is updated at the ONLINE link at the top.   If you're using TurboTax Online, close the program, clear your Cache and Cookies and return to the section.   Here's more info on How to Enter Form 1099-R.   @user17702567002 

I reviewed a scenario in TurboTax with the maximum amount of state and local taxes, to see how it would affect Maine's Schedule 2.  Even if you get the whole amount that is allowable for taxes paid in Maine Schedule 2, the form limits your allowable itemized deduction on line 5 to $36,300.  Claiming the maximum amount of state taxes paid on your federal, would not make your return reject.       @DC93     

This error has been patched. All you need to do now is update your TurboTax Desktop software, and you should be able to print. From the help article - "Manually Update TurboTax for Windows Software":   If you're having trouble automatically updating TurboTax 2025 for Windows, you can manually update it by following these steps: Close TurboTax. Select this link to download the update. Open the file w_perrelsuperpatch... and install the manual update. After you print, verify that all the forms included in your state return contain tax year 2025 in the upper left-hand corner. 

If you know the amount of bank interest you received, you can enter it yourself in the 1099-INT section.  All you need is the Bank Name and Amount.  You don't need the actual document.   Here's more info on How to Enter 1099-INT.   @Rosa2389     

That would mean you didn't have any taxable income from the IRA distribution, as the penalty would be assessed on the taxable portion of the distribution. You can look on line 4(b) of your Form 1040 to see if any of your distribution is showing as taxable. Also, when I tried to go back in to trouble shoot, again I couldn't get the penalty abatement screen to populate. I had to start a new return to get it to work for some reason.   To view your form 1040 and schedule 1 to 3:   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 If you had a penalty for early withdrawal of IRA funds, it would show on line 8 on Part II of Schedule 2.    

Yes mine finally got accepted it took a while, but it finally went through. Hopefully, everything else works out. I hope everything works out for you and all that have been waiting. A long time finally gets accepted. I know it’s frustrating because a lot of us depend on that like myself

You can still claim education expenses even if you did not receive a 1098T.  You will enter this information in the same area as the 1098T.  Here's a link that gives instructions on how to get there: Where do I enter Form 1098-T (Tuition Statement)?
