If your income is resported on a Schedule K-1, you can use Home&Business, Premier and possibly others.  If you need to do a return to PRODUCE  a Schedule K-1 for a beneficiary, then you must use Business.

TurboTax is not set up for reporting the sale of an asset (including a vehicle) that has varied in business percentage.   Manually calculating things and manually entering it in the "Sale of Business Property" section can report the correct gain/loss.  However, if the activity qualifies for the QBI deduction, the last I checked reporting it in the Sale of Business Property section will incorrectly not affect QBI if it is supposed to.

This is a 6-page thread of many Mac users.  Many have stated what worked for them.  Read through it, and you'll see several ways users have resolved it.  It would probably be best to look through the comments in reverse order, since the later ones have more info on how to do the workarounds than the early responses.

Thanks @ThomasM125 ! As I was looking for the FMV of the day he passed, I realized it was on a weekend, and the Friday before was a holiday. Would I calculate the average of the high and low of the Thursday before (since that was the last market opening day), the average of the high and low of the Monday after (next market opening day), then take the average of the two?

By increasing your deductions and expenses it will decease your income and you may not be getting as many credits as before like the EIC credit. You can't go by the refund monitor until you have entered everything in. Also after you reduce your income to zero there is no more refund to get back. But even though your taxable income goes down and you owe less income tax on it, you still owe SE Self Employment tax if you have a Net Profit.   Some expenses, such as home office or section 179 depreciation can only be used to reduce your schedule C taxable income to zero, and not to create a loss. Excess deductions for these carry over to the next year. And you have to answer yes to both questions about exclusive and regular use, not just one. The area of your home office must be used regularly and exclusively for business to deduct it.   Or you checked the box on Schedule C line 32b saying Some Investment is Not at Risk. If you have money not at risk you can not take a loss on schedule C. If you don't know what it means then probably All your Investment is at Risk (check Box 32a). It means you are using your own money for the business. People usually check the wrong box.

I agree with you. They've done the same thing to me. They wouldn't even allow me to file my tax return without choosing the premium expert. I know I wasn't getting a lot from federal, but TurboTax is taking most of it, and I am getting back far less than what I was expecting. I do not care about any apologies or excuses for why they are doing this because my mind is made up. I will not be filing with them next tax season. I have been a faithful TurboTax user for years, but I'm completely done with them. If I had to rate them on a scale of 1-10, they'd get a -3. 

As a long time turbo tax customer, I had turbo tax assitance via on the phone, chat, clear cache, deleted my farm, remote in, and did everything they asked to help resolve the error message I received when I tried to edit my income for our ranch and received the "something is wrong error".  I was advised Turbotax is working on resolving the internal error and the customer service was great and tried to resolve the error, but no luck.  Then I did some online research and found that the turbo tax subscription you need to edit your farm/ranch and get the schedule F is the Expert Assist Premium verison. Once I upgraded my turbotax subscription, I was able to edit my farm and open the Schedule F. It only took me over 2 weeks and hours of research to find a possible solution.  Hopefully, I can finish my taxes this week. Figers crossed.

For those dealing with this issue... Today [Feb 23] I called Intuit and spoke to an agent. He acknowledged [screen share] that the Canadian Registered Pension Income line shows on the 2025 Income Summary page with $0. Following his instructions, he concluded that it can not be deleted [at least on my desktop version of TurboTax].   However, we then looked at the FORMS.  Like many of you, I don't have one for the Canadian Pension. But looking at the 1099R Summary form, lines 24 and 32b refer to the Canadian Pension; mine are blank. That proved that the forms in TurboTax are correct even though we see the random line for the Canadian Pension as $0. on our Income Summary page.   The agent checked and reported that a fix is not currently on Intuit's list of expidited issues.    So check your 1099R Summary to be sure the entries are blank, and live with that unnecessary line on your income summary until Intuit gets around to fixing it.

I have reviewed your tax return using the token number.  I was able to generate an HSA contribution personally made.  Please follow these steps.   In TurboTax Online, return to My Info and answer the questions about the taxpayer, spouse and dependent children.  Under the spouse, add an occupation and state of residence.   Make sure that married filing jointly has been selected.   Select Federal then Deductions & Credits.   Scroll down to 1099-SA, HSA, MSA.  Click to the right.   Continue to the screen Select the health-related accounts you had in 2025.  Select the health-related account you had in 2025, both TP and SP should now be listed.  Select Health Savings Account for the second taxpayer.   At the screen Let’s enter XX HSA contributions, contributions personally made are available.   Your HSA Summary will reflect the contributions personally made.   Follow these steps to view your income tax return.    Down the left side of the screen, click on Tax Tools. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040. The entry will be reported on Line 10 Federal 1040 and Line 13 Part II Schedule 1. Contact me if you have questions.

Sorry, Online is only for 2025 now. Online for 2024 and prior is closed now so you can not start a new 2024 or prior return or finish one. You have to do each year separately How to prepare a prior year return https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/how-do-i-prepare-a-prior-year-tax-return/00/25984 To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here, https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products You will need Windows 10 or Mac Ventura 13 to install it on. If you can't install the Desktop program or if you have a simple return and want to file for free, you can fill out the blank IRS forms by hand. Here are some basic forms….. Here is the IRS 2024 Form 1040 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040--2024.pdf OR if you want bigger type use 1040SR for Seniors, https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s--2024.pdf And 2024 Instructions https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/i1040gi--2024.pdf Sch 1 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s1--2024.pdf Sch 2 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s2--2024.pdf Sch 3 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s3--2024.pdf Then when you do file 2025 enter 0 for the 2024 AGI since you are filing 2024 late. You have to print and mail prior year returns. When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS received the return. Don’t forget state.

I have been having exactly the same issue importing data from Edward Jones.  I'm relieved to find that the fault is not with my financial institution, but I do wish that Intuit would send out a patch ASAP.
