To remove the form, mark the property as not qualified in the software, even if it doesn’t feel right. Try these steps to see if this makes a difference.   Go back to the Oklahoma State section in your return. Navigate to the screen titled "Summary of Oklahoma Capital Gains and Losses." Click Edit next to the Edward Jones transaction. On the next screen, check the tiny box that says "This property does not qualify for exclusion." When you check this box, TurboTax knows you’re not claiming this deduction. The software should stop asking for the “Property Type,” and the filing error should go away.

I didn't really get a response to my question. The last clarification I need is if I put the vehicle into service 2 years after purchasing the vehicle (100% personal use for 2 years, then partial time business use in years 3+ and only ever claimed the Standard Mileage Rate, what do I use for Cost Basis, the original purchase price or an estimated FMV at time the car was placed into service? If the answer is I need to use FMV, I have records of what that value would have been at the time.   @DianeW777

In addition to the information provided by @xmasbaby0 and @DoninGA, see below for more resources from the state and federal tax agencies:   According to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, if you filed electronically, "most refunds are issued in less than three weeks. Filing a paper return could delay your refund. Our strong fraud and error safeguards could delay some refunds up to 12 weeks". You can also use their app to track the status of your refund.   You can also check the status of an IRS refund here.   @brandygarica46

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/   Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.     You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:    https://www.irs.gov/refunds   To track your state refund:     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr   If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/refunds-take-longer-others/L14YlqFrH_US_en_US?uid=lexdr7zh . https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/irs-refund-taking-longer-21-days/L2vRAJbdU_US_en_US?uid=lexe7lst         If you are getting earned income credit on line 27 or additional child tax credit on line 28 You are subject to the delay required by the PATH act.  Do not expect your refund before early March   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/internal-revenue-service/federal-refunds-delayed-due-path-act/L5jnQJsBi_US_en_US   Note:  “Accepted” is not the same as “approved”.  TurboTax tells you the e-file was accepted if the IRS deems that there is enough information on the return for them to take it in for processing.   Only the IRS can approve of the refund, which is a later stage of processing.  If the IRS approves your refund they will provide a date for the refund to be issued.   FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE: https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund How it works Where's My Refund shows your refund status: Return Received – We received your return and are processing it. Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown. Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.  
It just keeps going to the same screen without a payment going through

The context: 2023 and 2024 my wife and I filed married filling separately. We both contributed to individual Roth IRA's in those tax years. We lived together for those filling years. We were both over the income threshhold, We know this is considered excess contributions for those tax years. We did not report the contributions in those tax years.      The question: Do we have to do amended returns for those tax years?  Or can we remedy these prior year excess contributions with the 2025 filing and remit the penalty on the 2025 return?

I'm using TurboTax Premier (desktop) for TY 2025 after my CPA announced her retirement. She produced depreciation tables for various DST (fractional real estate) assets thru TY 2024. When I enter the assets and property types, TurboTax returns the correct 2025 values for assets in the 27.5 and 39 year (straight line) classes, and also returns correct values for the 15 year 150 Declining Balance (150DB) class property. But when I enter assets which use the 200DB method, TurboTax returns the same value for 2025 that my CPA used for TY 2024.  It should be less for 2025 because the 200DB method is not linear.  I deleted the asset(s) and re-entered them using correct property type, cost, and placed-in-service date several times to no avail. No Sec 179 or bonus depreciation was claimed.  As a validation check, I entered all the same information into a web-based depreciation calculator and it returned the correct values for 2025.  The TT calculator appears to be a year off.  Can someone at TT double-check the 200DB calculator embedded in the program?

March 3 -- no new updates and the ARTS form is still unable to be e-filed. I spoke directly with nice staff at the City of Portland ARTS offices, and they said, "TurboTax is still working to get the ARTS form integrated into their production environment. No ETA yet." :(   Honestly, reaching TurboTax support is so difficult and frustrating, I'm not sure I'm up to calling in about this again only to be shuffled around from one rep to the next saying they can't find any report and demanding screen sharing to see the error and then ultimately having the line dropped (does this sound like previous experience? :-P). But I really do hope the expert users here, like @AmyC , have the ear of Turbo Tax internal engineering. Having to deal with all of these issues (much worse this year than prior years) this late in the game is simply unacceptable.
entire year interest is 12000, 3 months's portion is 3000. to answer tuobo's questions, use 12000 or 3000?

Intentionally very misleading.  Now that I coughed up the extra $40 - makes me wonder if that used one of my "free" e-files too.  I still have to do my kids and my moms and am going to be cranky if one of them ends up with an e-file fee due to terrible instructions.
Why would regular loss carryover and QBI loss carryover be different? Mine are different.

In looking at your worksheet, you posted, remove all the zero's. There shouldn't be any amounts listed in each of these places. If you find there are still zero's in your overrrides, you may need to right-click your mouse and select cancel override in those boxes.   As far as the question regarding basis or worth, what part of the return are you working in that asks this question?  If you can provide context, we can answer your question.   @hccheung
