IDENTITY PIN   https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/retrieve-your-ip-pin   If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file.  Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.    

thanks, to clarify it is just a standard four year undergraduate degree just happens to be in another country.  Child is on parent's tax return as dependent and this is their return to report summer jobs.  I appreciate your help.  Let me know if you need more clarification.

Can the company also send you a statement for December 2021 to December 2022? Then you could calculate the amount for calendar year 2022. Check to be sure they are not tracking from December 31 one year to the next.   If you can't get a correct statement, then reconstruct your 2022 winnings from your records.    You must report all gambling winnings on Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR (use Schedule 1 (Form 1040) PDF), including winnings that aren't reported on a Form W-2G    See this IRS webpage for more information.  

Was the return accepted? Did you e-file?   Did you go through all three steps of the FILE section and click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”     When you e-file your return you will get two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say your return has been transmitted; the second one will tell you the IRS has accepted  or rejected your federal e-file.  If you filed a state return, there will be a third email (usually a day or two later) that tells you if the state e-file was accepted or rejected.   Check your e-file status:   https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/    What does it say in your account?  Does it show that the return was accepted?   Or does it say something else---like "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?”   If you discover or realize that your e-file was rejected, or just never filed, you will need to print it, sign and date it in ink, and file it by mail now, since e-filing is closed for returns for tax year 2024.       If the return was accepted, then what does it say on the IRS refund site: You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2024 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:    https://www.irs.gov/refunds  

The effective tax rate is more of a 'blended tax rate', as some of your income is taxed at different rates, so it's an 'average.'   Here's more detailed info on Effective Tax Rate.   @Billy213 

The same thing happened to me too this year. My daughter hasn't been able to amend them yet as I can't find the 2025 1040-x and TurboTax doesn't have the form to to do the amendment online yet. After you re-filed your taxes, did everything go OK from there?
