They don't have much choice in the matter of issuing the 1099-G forms. It must be reported in the year the money was paid. In fact, my 1099 this year includes 3 semesters worth of PCTC payments because the OTC has been so inconsistent - last school year they paid the spring semester out in January, but this school year they paid it out in December. (I suspect many people have the same problem.) It really has nothing to do with the year the funds were intended to service or anything, just when they mailed the check.   The key issue is that they have taken what should really be described as a grant or scholarship and made it into an income tax credit. Tax credits are typically paid when you file your taxes every April, but the state did not want to make people wait a year to get their money. So instead they pay this tax credit in advance, in installments conveniently coinciding with school semesters so that families aren't paying out of pocket and getting reimbursed later. Thus we have a 1099-G mess because the money is paid a year early and TurboTax thinks it is so smart as to prevent a tax refund 1099-G from ever being entered for the current year, because they assumed it can never happen.   I blame Oklahoma for coming up with this bizarre system, but it's really TurboTax's problem to fix, because Oklahoma is sending out the forms exactly correctly, and we're all stuck in the middle.

Are you referring to the email address used for the email verification code when efiling?     You can go to your settings in your Intuit Account, and you can change the email address.     Here's how:   In the left menu column scroll way down to Intuit Account. Then once in the account choose tab Sign In & Security. You can change the email address used for notifications.  If you do, also try to go ahead and verify it while you are still in the account settings, then it may not ask you to again verify when you are efiling.
I have tried everything you mentioned. It is still not working for me. Seeing the same error.

I never received my CA state refund for 2024. Upon more closely reviewing the 2025 final prepared documents, I noticed that the banking information on my state return is WRONG. It does not match what I entered the step before. I have no idea where that information came from as it does not match what I inputted in the system and is showing up correctly on my federal document.

Hello, I was using Do It Yourself Deluxe to file my tax return, and it was going very smoothly so I decided to pay (ONLY for the deluxe version). As I was doing one last check through my return, I looked through the expenses, where a screen popped up that said I can only edit this if I have the premium version. I wanted to click the “back” option, but accidentally hit upgrade. I tried to downgrade back to Deluxe using the “switch products” menu, but there are only 2 options, which are “upgrade” and “clear and start over”. I then tried to clear and start over, but it says that since I’ve already paid for TurboTax Deluxe, I can’t start over. Is there any way to downgrade back to the Deluxe version, or will I have to pay the $60 to upgrade to Premium to finish this return? I have not used and do not need to use any features from the Premium version, so if I can downgrade that would be excellent, although I do realize I am at fault for not being cautious when looking through the upgrade options.

I'm in the same situation. Filed and accepted on 2/11.  Received refunds from US, NJ & MD, but still waiting on NY. The https://www8.tax.ny.gov/PRIS/prisGateway website just says "We have received your return and it is being processed. No further information is available at this time. See Understanding your refund status on our website."   I don't know what to do about it either...
I paid accidentally for turbo tax package twice.  Who do I contact to get refund?

If you have a question for the forum, you should explain your situation.   There are at least 4 other users in this thread, so you should explain what you are wanting to ask about your situation?   Did you file your 2025 return with some wrong information (such as from 2024?), and are now asking how to prepare an amended return?   Are you using Online TurboTax or the desktop software?   You said you already efiled your return.  Was your efiled return accepted for processing by the IRS?  If your efiled 2025 return was accepted by the IRS, then the only way to correct it is to prepare and file an amended return.   On the other hand, if you recently efiled, and if it is rejected, then you can correct everything and then resubmit the efile.   When your explain your situation more, then we can tell you more about how to proceed.
Please clarify your specific question regarding the Simplified Home Office Deduction.

So you mean the ADP provided W-2 should have included the WA PFML medical leave benefit?  In last March when filing the 2024 tax, I checked relevant instruction here then filed the PFML medical leave benefit as instructed: --Manually added the benefit I received from WA state just like a 1099-G --Then deducted the portion of what employee paid as non-taxable   But if the W-2 has included these benefit, I should not add it for a second time, all I need to do is just to deduct the portion, correct?   I checked my 2024 and 2025 W-2 (my medical leave lasted from late 2024 through early 2025), both of them has nothing in box 14.  Then how can I confirm if the 2024 and 2025 W-2 has included the medical benefit or not?   Thanks a lot. @AmyC  @RobertB4444
