I'm having the same problems with that stupid screen that nevere works ("Oops.  Looks like we hit a snag." I can't even file my Federal return, even though there's nothing to pay for. (The same instructions to "purchase" come up when trying to e-file separately, again, even though there's no charge to e-file Federal & Audit Defense is free.)   I have lost countless hours at the computer & on the phone. (I, too, have been hung up by the so-called customer service reps at the 1-800-4-INTUIT.)   All the suggested fixes DON'T WORK.  I've done them multiple times.   This glitch is the only thing keeping me from being done with my 2025 taxes!

See this webpage to check availability of forms in TurboTax. You can change your view using the drop-down menus at the top of the page to look at Federal return forms or forms for your State.   As of now, the Federal amendment Form 1040-X is not expected to be available until February 25, 2026.

For lab and x-rays, what am I looking at on the EOB for the year?
Got it. That makes sense. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. Cheers!
The proper way to file Form 8606 is attached to Form 1040-X. Form 8606 can be signed and mailed by itself only when you are otherwise not required to file a tax return.   @Socket1021

If it's only this particular section you are experiencing an issue with, can you try deleting the form?   To delete a form, it's best to do it from within your return. 1. Open or continue your return. 2. Search for the form name in the search bar  3. Select the Jump to link in the search results to get to the summary screen. 4. From here, you can select the trash can icon to delete.   Then you can re-enter the information. As a last resort, this should resolve the issue.  How do I view and delete forms in TurboTax Online?

Both online and desktop versions of Turbotax are taking the Iowa low-income exemption when the taxpayer is claimed as a dependent on another person's Iowa state return.     On Iowa tax return Turbotax checks the "Check if using alternate tax (line 5), tax reduction calculation (line 12), or low-income exemption. See instructions." in step 5, even though Step 2 line 1 "Single: Were you claimed on another person’s Iowa return" is checked as YES.   Iowans cannot claim the low-income exemption if they are claimed as a dependent on another person's return.

The link no longer works, so not able to see details. But, bottom line, is the answer still correct?

Form 1098-T is an informational document.  It is used to determine eligibility for education tax credits or taxable scholarships.  The information is not reported on your tax return. If you are not claiming a credit for Education Expenses, and 100% of the distribution from your 529 was used for qualified education expenses, then you don't need to report your Form-1099-Q.  If you don't qualify for education credits and you used 100% of the 529 plan distribution for qualified education expenses in the year of the distribution, then you don't need to enter/report either the 1098-T or the 1099-Q.  
By default, withholding is spaced out over the year for you . Otherwise, you have to space out your Estimated Tax payments in approximately 25% amounts.

I looked at it showed $0 because I was working for myself so I had a 1099 not a W2 so it was going to be automatically declined if I went further. I just want my $53 back from TurboTax.    When efiling, if it was asking for your 2024 AGI, that is what it uses to verify your efiling.  You have to look at your 2024 Form 1040, Line 11 to get the 2024 AGI figure.   Whether or not the income was from W-2 or 1099 is irrelevant.   It only goes by what figure is shown on the 2024 Form 1040, Line 11.      Most people are able to use the 2024 AGI shown on Line 11 of the original 2024 Form 1040.  In a few instances, such as if people filed late in the year last year, then it might not work, but in that case they try using an AGI of 0.   People who did not file a 2024 return at all last year also would use an AGI of 0.   People who are still unable to successfully efile after all maneuvers can print, sign, date, and mail the return if you wish.  But you may still be able to efile, if desired.   This is a community forum--not a direct route to Customer Support--and unfortunately, we can't help you here with a product refund for Online TurboTax.  Only TurboTax  Customer Support can do anything about billing issues, and usually they do not offer a refund for an online product.  They usually say that by paying it indicates acceptance of the terms.   It never hurts to ask, but they are likely to decline.   In Online TurboTax the fee is for the tax preparation--whether efiled or printed and mailed.   Efiling is free.   Contact TurboTax https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/contact/ Hours 5AM-9PM Pacific, 7 days per week
