Here are answers to your questions: Yes, requested to logon a second time to both Intuit and Schwab. All attempts were on separate days so everything had closed from before. Yes, so, did close the browser (Chrome) Was I in a browser? All of this was handled by TurboTax from their desktop system. Did not use incognito mode in the browser (Chrome). I can try that and will let you know. However, I have decided that Turbo Tax simply does not handle repeat downloads from the same financial institution properly. So, I will delete all accounts I already downloaded from Schwab and wait, wait, wait for Schwab to make all of them available at one time.  Also, it would be nice if TurboTax did this by financial institution AND ACCOUNT NUMBER. On my dividend listings in TT, it just shows: Schwab, Schwab, Schwab - and the only way I know which account is to look at the dividend amount and compare with the paper 1099.

In looking at my Georgia Returns for the last 4 years the program automatically printed on the Georgia schedule 1 form the available deductions for the 62 years of age deduction and also for the military income exclusion. What I have determined for all the years was that it did not automatically take that off my income. It would depend on what I had entered on my 1099. Having that show up on the form automatically is alittle confusing when I never entered any military income. Thanks

Reporting the sale of a depreciable asset (like a vehicle, equipment, or rental property) requires you  to "recapture" the depreciation you claimed in previous years.   Instead of going directly to a "Sales" section, you must go through the Assets/Depreciation area of your business or rental profile.   Depending on what the asset was used for, follow one of these paths: Business Asset (Schedule C): Go to Wages & Income > Self-Employment > Expenses > Assets/Depreciation. Rental Asset (Schedule E): Go to Wages & Income > Rental Properties and Royalties > Assets/Depreciation.   Once you are in the Asset Summary list: Click Edit next to the specific asset you sold. Proceed through the screens until you see the question: "Did you stop using this asset in 2025?" Select Yes. Enter the Date of Sale. Enter Sales Information: TurboTax will ask for the Sales Price and Sales Expenses (like commissions or legal fees). Multiple Assets in One Transaction:  If you sold multiple assets in one transaction (like a house, a new HVAC system, and a refrigerator), you should allocate the total sales price among them based on their relative value. Special Handling for Land: If you sold a rental property, you must split the sales price/sales expenses between the Building and the Land. Since land isn't depreciable, TurboTax handles that gain separately from the building's depreciation recapture.   When you sell a depreciable asset, TurboTax generates Form 4797 (Sales of Business Property). Here is how that completed form will look: Depreciation Recapture: If you sell the asset for more than its "Adjusted Basis" (Original Cost - Depreciation), the portion of the gain that comes from the depreciation you took is taxed at ordinary income rates. Capital Gain: Any profit above your original purchase price is typically taxed at the lower Long-Term Capital Gains rate (0%, 15%, or 20%). Ordinary Loss: If you sell the asset for a loss, it is usually treated as an "Ordinary Loss," which can offset your regular income without the $3,000 limit that applies to stocks.
