Let me correct myself. My direct deposit date is today the 18th. I misspoke earlier. That is why I am concerned. The irs shows it paying today but SBTPG just shows unfunded on the portal. 
I appreciate the reply.   From what I am understanding then, they do not have any public facing access to their staff unless you pay for it. That does not seem correct to me. What am I missing?

The SE tax includes what you already paid in from your W2s so your schedule SE tax will only be the difference up to the max amount of $10,918.20 for social security. The max income for social security for 2025 is $176,100 between W2 wages and the schedule C Net Profit.  If you also have W2 income, you have to break out the Social Security and Medicare taxes. Only the Social Security part maxes out.   For 2025 the max for Social Security is $10,918.20 on $176,100 of wages (176,100 x 6.2%).

Do you have Form 8283 in your Federal Return?  Does your state also require the form, or just Schedule A from your Federal return?  If you can give more details, we'll try to help.   A common TurboTax issue is a "ghost" entry—a $0 or stray character on the charitable contributions worksheet—which can be cleared in Forms Mode.   @user17709580654 
Yes. Same problem. I spoke with support again! yesterday and they told me that it would be available today 2/18 but still nothing! Very frustrating!

No, include the correct capital loss carryover on your 2025 tax return. The IRS will reconcile everything eventually and you should file the 2025 accurately based on the knowledge you have right now, knowing the corrected figure.   Yes, process the 2024 when you have it ready but do not hold up your 2025 return.   Follow the instructions in the link below to obtain the necessary TurboTax Desktop products (2024 and 2023).   The amendment can be completed using the steps below and if necessary you can use the IRS transcript for your original 2023 or 2024 tax return. How do I amend a tax return for a prior year? @user17711742943 
You can remove this mention by revisiting the My Info section of TurboTax and editing the information entered for that person. Please go slowly and read carefully the questions.

I had the same issue with Turbotax miscalculating the percent of business use to lower than 50%.  I found the problem was that the months (less than full year) for special allocation in the car and truck expenses worksheet would erroniously adjust the percent of business use.  Since section 179 is not based on the amount of time used during the year,  a work- around in the worksheet was to adjust the date placed in service at the start of the year.   
A 1099B is for sales.   Dividends are reported on a 1099-Div.   Did you maybe get a consolidated statement.  That will have sections for 1099-Int and 1099-Div and 1099B and maybe some other 1099s.  Y... See more...
A 1099B is for sales.   Dividends are reported on a 1099-Div.   Did you maybe get a consolidated statement.  That will have sections for 1099-Int and 1099-Div and 1099B and maybe some other 1099s.  You need to enter each section in the right place.  So read it carefully and look for headings.... 1099-INT for interest or 1099-DIV for Dividends or 1099B for sales.  I highlight each heading with a yellow highlighter to find them.   You don’t have to upgrade for dividends.
Excellent. This confirms what I was thinking and appreciate the confirmation. Thank you very much!🙏🏼

I had HDHP in 2024 for the whole year and for 2025 I only had it for January. Then I went on Medicare for February onwards. When I answer the step by step, I indicated this. On form 8889 it shows the year 2025 correctly in Part I, section 2.A. For Part III, Line 18, section B, it checks January as "None" and the rest of 2024 as Self-Only. I fixed this and then when I go back to step-by-step and answer the questions again, it reverts January 2024 to "none". I change that to Self Plan in Step-by-Step. Now when I go to the forms, Line 18, Section B has January as None and the rest as Self-Only. It seems  to be confusing 2024(HDHP all year) with 2025 (HDHP only in January). It seems to not reflect the value selected for January in Step-by-step onto the 8889 form.

I have few deductions and would like to explore whether using standard or itemizing would be best for me and how TurboTax can help me do that ? Would it be beneficial for me tax wise to pay off my  $100,000 mortgage at 3 7/8 interest rate if using the standard deduction?
