You do have an keychain; it is managed by macOS. A while back Intuit started to use it (without explaining to its customers). Turbotax will ask Apple to store something in the keychain on your machine. You need only agree to to give TurboTax access. I don't know whether Intuit has ever explained just what it is using the keychain for.

TurboTax does not have your W-2.  W-2's come from your employer(s).   You enter your W-2 into the tax software yourself by keying it in, importing it from the employer's payroll site, or by snapping a photo of it in the mobile app.       ALL of your 2025 W-2’s must be entered on the SAME 2025 tax return.     Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2. After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.     W-2's come from your employer, and they have until January 31 to issue it.  Some employers allow you to import the W-2 through the software, but for security reasons you still need information from the actual W-2 to import it. Some employers have payroll sites that will have your W-2. You might need to phone, text, drop in, email and/or snail mail an old employer to make sure they know where to send your W-2.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-forms/get-copy-w-2/L8FTim9MO_US_en_US?uid=m68ee4os   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/import-enter-w-2/L55HzdeDr_US_en_US?uid=m68efe36   And….SAVE YOUR OWN W-2!  TURBOTAX DOES NOT SAVE IT FOR YOU.  TurboTax will not have a copy of it in your account and will not have an image even if you snapped a photo or imported it.  It is up to you to save it for your own records as stated on the back of the W-2.     

Sorry..was out. Thank you and will check. No other Trad/Roth IRAs. I was also reading online that I can mail out a standalone 8606 form (as there are no distributions). That's an option as well? If yes, how to report on $21.

Did you actually go all the way to the end and click on the "Transmit returns now" button?   If you actually transmitted the return, and it has a status of "pending," there's nothing you can do but wait to see if it is accepted or rejected by the IRS for processing.  If rejected, then you can either fix it, start over, or abandon it and file it elsewhere, etc.   If accepted by the IRS, however, then the only way to correct anything is to file an amended return.   So if you didn't want to efile it, then you can hope it is ultimately rejected, then you can do what you want.  If accepted, then you can amend it.   The IRS opens up and starts accepting/rejecting returns on January 26, except for a few returns they may pull early.  The majority of early-filed returns will sit on TurboTax servers until pulled by the IRS on/after January 26.
