i hope you haven't given up on me.   i'm probably asking too much from a community forum, but i'm REALLY hoping you @DianeW777  or someone else can go thru each of my points/numbers/questions above, that was in response to @DianeW777 's gracious initial reply. 🤞

You can enter your Canadian private pension NR4 pension in TurboTax by creating a substitute 1099-R (Form 4852).   You would enter the pension amount in Box 1 and Box 2a.  section. Enter the foreign pension amount in Box 1 and Box 2a, in Box 7 use Code 7 for normal distribution, use 99-0999999 for the EIN.    Open your return Go to Wages & Income Select IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R) Choose to add a 1099-R Select "I'll type it in myself" Check the box "I need to prepare a substitute 1099-R" Enter your information as instructed above    

To enter the sale of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) in TurboTax Online:   1. Go to Federal>Income>Investments and savings    2. Add Investments, then Enter a different way, Type it in myself   3. Choose Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds   4. After you enter the brokerage information, you will see the question Do these sales include any employee stock? Answer Yes, then enter RSU sales one by one.   When you enter each sale, RSU will be a option in the drop down box for the type of investment you sold.   Here is a TurboTax article on reporting RSUs on your tax return for more information.    

Sorry, I have not had a chance verify.  I'm pretty sure the only entry was the flow form the 1099-R issued by my brokerage, but will quadruple-check.  Otherwise, I think it's a link error in TT from form 8889, line 12 to form 5329, line 47.  Thanks again for the suggestion and I'll reply back after I've had to chance to check.

It depends. An amendment requires Form 1040-X and you can review the instruction in the link below. You may need to remove the correction, so TurboTax knows the original numbers and the corrected numbers.   Follow the instructions in the link below to obtain the necessary TurboTax Desktop products (2024 and 2023) if necessary.   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?

@user17738587680    Other: 1)  Reboot your computer.  Partially installed OS updates are known to interfere with some TTX operations. 2)  If on a windows PC, download and install the manual update.  Take longer than expected to install, so you have to have some patience. Manually Update TurboTax for Windows Software ______________ 3)  maybe the MS Visual C++ needs repair?  (Windows only)  

No. Plasma donation is unearned income. It could only be earned income if you are in the business of plasma donation, on a regular and continuous business basis. This is not income earned by you performing a service or sales of a product  you created for resale. The IRS would not consider a plasma donation as an ongoing business concern.   Key elements: A business allows you to deduct the costs necessary to obtain the income.  The law explains that 'you must be engaged in the activity to produce a profit'.  The test under IRS tax law is that you must show a profit three out of every five consecutive years to be considered a business.

To go back and fix your children's Trump account:   Go to the File section Go through all the filing questions for filing After this the program will ask you to sign up for a Trump Account How do I set up a Trump Account in TurboTax?

If you haven't filed yet, sign in to your account and select Tax Home. Go to My Info section, click to your mailing address, and select Edit to fix it. If you have already filed your return, you must wait until the IRS rejects it or accepts it.   If rejected, you can sign to your account and make the pertinent corrections in My Info section. If accepted, and you use Direct Deposit for your refund, your money will be sent back to your bank account. But if you choose that the IRS send you a paper check, then you must contact to the IRS as soon as you can to inform the issue, because the IRS might send it to the wrong address.
