After clicking the button on the page that lists the Forms 1099-R that you have entered, when you indicate to TurboTax that you made nondeductible traditional IRA contributions, TurboTax will ask you to provide your basis in such contributions.  You would find this amount on the next-to-last line (usually line 14) of Part I of the most recent previous Form 8606 that you filed.   (No Form 8606 could have been filed in the '70s.  Form 8606 came into existence in 1987 when the tax code changed to permit nondeductible traditional IRA contributions.)

If you are using online TurboTax you should be able to access your return from any computer or device that has internet access, as long as you are using exactly the same account and user ID that you used to start the return.     Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery         If you are using desktop download software, you can only access your return from the computer you started it from; the tax return is only stored on your own hard drive.  It is not in the cloud or anywhere online.

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities,  There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.  Some states process returns quickly and some are very slow.   STATE RETURN Make sure your state return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/   To track your state refund:       ttps://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0

Hello, I'm turning to this forum in hopes that someone can help me: I am a Dutch citizen and I was in the US for 18 years on an F1 visa, getting various degrees. I became a tax resident in 2012 and I left the country on July 20, 2025 after I completed a postdoc on OPT. I returned to the Netherlands, where I had no income at all for the remainder of 2025. I completed paperwork with the IRS before departure to show I did not have any tax liability before leaving. In November 2025 I returned for a 2.5 week visit, and in December 2025 I was back for a 6-day conference.   My question is whether I can legally be a tax resident the whole year instead of a dual status individual. Based on my presence in previous years, I calculated that I meet the SPT for 2025. Pub 519 seems to suggest that there is a choice (i.e not declare that I want residency to end earlier). It is obviously fiscally advantageous to remain a tax resident since I could use the standard deduction and I wouldn't have any income in the Netherlands to include. However, I don't want to do the wrong thing here. TIA

What @Mike9241 says also applies to Pennsylvania.  The state requires that you make an estimated payment to cover the taxes due if you are going to owe more than a thousand dollars for the year.  In your case you don't know what you'll owe until December so the estimated payment to Pennsylvania as well as to the IRS is due on January 15th.  Assuming that you will owe more than a thousand dollars to either agency.  If you don't make the estimated payments in a timely manner then they will charge you a penalty for underpaying your estimated taxes.     You can overcome this penalty in the future a couple of different ways.  You can increase the withholding amount from any income that you have - including from the investments that you are talking about here - and have that withholding submitted on your behalf just as though it were coming out of a paycheck.  If your withholding is high enough then you don't need any estimates.   Otherwise, you can send in your estimated payment by January 15th every year and cover it that way.  TurboTax can help you prepare estimates going forward as well as helping you figure out the safe amount to send in for the following year to help avoid penalties.
same thing with me too--Shows on federal review .  The "check this entry Itemliab is marked as estimated."  The second error shown is "Stdref"   This is on the tax summary page.

No.  If you did not earn any money at all while a resident of MO, then you would not need to file a tax return for MO.  All of your income would technically be taxable to TX, but since TX does not have a state tax, you would not need to file a state return for 2025.   Since you do not have any income earned while a resident of MO or MO sourced income, you can just delete the MO state return.
