I purchased the ARAG will product when checking out on TurboTax on 1/26. I have been emailing them since 1/30. As of today, they said they are waiting for Turbotax to send them info on my order. I have looked in all of my inboxes and there was no email containing the access code from them. How long does it take for Turbotax to send over the ingo ARAG needs in order for me to access the product I paid in full for?

Please enter the trade-in value the dealer gave you for the old car.    Additionally, if the new car is also used for business, the cost would include the trade-in value of the older car.    Example, you purchased a new vehicle for 25,000 cash (or loan) and a trade-in value of 7,000 for the older car.  The sale price for the older car is 7,000. The cost for the newer vehicle is 32,000.

I'm a W-2 employee and one of my vehicles is used primarily for work. I was happy to see that for my 2025 taxes, it appears that I can input work expenses such as meals, gas, oil, maintenance.  Am I understanding this correctly? I though in past years that w-2 could not deduct work expenses that were out of pocket.   If this is a valid deduction for me as a w-2 employee, how would I identify maintennce, gas, and oil expenses for 2025? All of these would have been out of pocket.   Thanks!

I had same issue, and found this discussion.  OS: Mac The steps I took to overcome the problem. (I don't know if this is a fix or was a coincidental sequence of actions) 1. Quit the Turbotax 2025 app.  I had to "Force Quit". 2. Launched the Turbotax 2024 app to open last year's tax return. The intent was to find if the file was saved with a password.   The App proceeded to update its software. 3. After the Turbotax 2024 Software update, I successfully opened the 2024 Tax file return. There was no prompt for a password.  I then proceeded to close the tax return file without saving and quit the Turbotax 2024 app. 4. I restarted the Turbotax 2025 app and I was successful in 'importing' last year's tax return file.

YES!  They said the rejected state return was due to updates involving not taxing qualified pension and an update was released 2/13/2026.  Well, I made sure TT was updated, reviewed the return and resubmitted,  for free fortunately, but then shortly after received another rejection email.  They need to FIX THIS NOW.

I solved this problem by closing the program and restarting it. Then the screen appeared allowing me to input prior year's returns. The response was not helpful and suggests that my question was not understood. Intuit should be ashamed at the poor technical support system it offers.

If your partner is filing their own return, both of you will indicate when entering the 1095-A in your individual returns that you 'shared the policy with someone not on your return' and each will indicate an allocation %.   This could be whatever you agree on, as long as the two total 100% (50/50 or 100/0, for example).   If you file jointly, or you claim your partner as a dependent, you don't need to indicate a 'shared policy' since you're both on the same return.   Here's more info on How to Enter Form 1095-A.     @reynaarroyo1966

@jh9kt ,  Vanguard International Fund would be considered a RIC  ( Registered/Regulated Investment Company ).  But not knowing the Canadian entity  details, even if  listed at NYSE,  is generally not a RIC ---- depending on the exact nature of the entity's  business it could be  just a foreign entity or a PFIC. I am assuming here that you are US person ( citizen/GreenCard/Resident for Tax Purposes ) and that your tax-home is US. Does this make sense ?  Is there more I can do for you ?

Oh wow, I called them and just sat on hold, finally got somebody who does not speak a lick of english who wouldn't even fathom my issue and absolutely can't resolve it. Said to call QB Support. QB Support said just pay the fee and ask for a refund. Really? I already PAID YOU.   What a joke this company.

I'm having the exact same issue.  The import from Charles Schwab seems to go fine.  The CS site says SUCCESS you can now return to Turbo Tax, but when I do, TTAX says the import was unsuccessful.  How do I make this work?  There are many accounts and transactions.  Doing it manually is not an option.  
Are we sure its exclusively a Turbo Tax issue ,last time I checked it seemed HR block also was having this issues.

I filed my state and federal taxes on 2/10. It’s now 2/13, and they are both still pending. Usually, within hours the federal taxes will either be accepted or rejected. Never once has it taken more than that, even though it supposedly could take up to 48 hours. I called the IRS today, and they said no return has been transmitted for them to accept or reject. What is going on here with turbo tax? Are they not transmitting them properly? I filed my husbands on freetaxusa, they were accepted in less than 1 hour. I would like to know what the problem is.

Hi, I saw the notice that Depreciation and Amortization (Form 4562) would be ready by February, but it’s already February and the feature still isn’t available in my TurboTax account. Could you please let me know the expected release date or if there’s anything I need to upgrade or enable to access Form 4562?
