@msengel   There was a big bug in the program transferring ALL the estimated payments made in 2024 into Schedule A.   But that was fixed a while ago.   Be sure to update your program, go up to Online- Check for Updates.    It should be only a 4th quarter payment made in January 2025.

If you need assistance preparing and filing a return for a deceased person, see the link below: TurboTax deceased parent  Since you don’t have access to their phone numbers or e-mail accounts, you will need to create a new account.

If all of your hours are paid straight time, the "No Tax on Overtime" deduction does not apply to you.   However, as an hourly worker, if you get straight time pay and work excess hours over 40 per week, you should have a discussion with your employer.  An exception to this is salaried employees.

I filed an initial 1041 (and Schedule K-1's) for 2024 calendar year.  For 2025, final distributions were done from the estate and the adjusted total income was only $68.  Since it is under $600, a 1041 does not need to be filed; but is a 1041 and Schedule K-1's still needed to record a "final" 1041; or is it not required and I can request deactivation of the EIN.

If Line 22 on the Tax Payment Worksheet shows an amount, check your Federal Carryover Worksheet to see if that amount also shows under State Estimates.   If it is incorrect, you can delete the amount on the Federal Carryover Worksheet (or the entire form, if there are no other entries).     Fourth quarter estimated payments for 2024 are often made in January 2025, so this could be the amount you see, if this applies to you.   @msengel

... Furthermore, the instructions then alternatively suggest adding the foreign interest as "Other Income" but the link to that seems to default to putting it on a 1099-MISC in our royalties section which seems incorrect (?) to me. Is this really a software issue in the 1099-INT Federal Review section that's already being addressed, particularly considering TurboTax's clear instructions that, so far, have not resolved this problem?
I restarted computer a third time and now have full 1099-R edit/delete functionality from interview screen.
It depends. If the issuer is not NY and  does not operate in NY, use the federal EIN. If the issuer operates in NY or is NY based, contact your employer for the state id.

I have an inherited IRA under the10 year rule and have been taking distributions as such   When I enter my 1099R for the year, TT asks for what is the "RMD due by Dec. 31, 2025"   Do I just enter 0, since it there is no RMD other than the basic rule where I must distribute everything before the 10 years?   thanks for the help !
