@albertinestarshine    FIRST...make sure you are using the right number   ...depending on the license type...check the following pictures provided by NY: Sample Photo Documents | NY DMV _________________ AND, it is not the DMV ID number ______________________________ Beyond that....ONLY the first three characters...no more than that, not the whole ID number.

@eacalos    Not really...but what address did you mail them to. Maybe it is an address that no longer exists...and ended up in a dead-letter bin. _______________________ You could pay future Federal estimated payments Online, using the IRS's DirectPay, and avoid that problem.

@bernie-kustra    This year, the text in TurboTax seems to be calling every 1099-R an "Annuity"  (other than IRAs...I think)   Just ignore the term. _______________________ so...what do you want to know about the box 7 code?? There is usually a second page on a 1099-r that explains whatever code(s) are on yours.

@charlotte  For the "Online" software, the "Tax Home" selection shows up on the left-side menu. BUT It doesn't show up there until you get somewhere into your 2025 tax Q&A, so make sure you've started into your 2025 taxes first..then look for it on the left side.
