As @DianeW777 mentioned earlier, you can file your joint state return in TurboTax after e-filing the Federal return. See these articles for details:   How do I e-file my state return after I already filed federal? Can I file my federal taxes now and skip my state for later?   You could also use the state's website to file Wisconsin; however, you would need to use a PDF of your Federal return to get started and would need to take additional steps to complete it.   @soulwinner10

I put in an entry like you explained and I got the partial year depreciation. This is what I did, you can copy my steps and it may work for you:      - Edit your rental property entries    - On the screen that says Review your Rental Summary, choose Assets/Depreciation    - Go to the asset summary and edit the property you sold   - On the screen that says Tell us more about this rental asset -  indicate that the asset was sold, retired, stolen, etc...   - Enter the date sold and indicate the property was used 100% for business and enter the date put into service   - On the next screen confirm the prior depreciation (cost of asset/27.5 years divided by 12 times months rented)   - On the sales information screen I entered the sales proceeds and cost basis   - On the Results screen I got the correct partial year depreciation for the year of sale

You must file a RITA return if:   You lived in a RITA municipality (even if you owe $0) OR you worked in a RITA city and taxes weren’t fully withheld OR you had business/self-employment income in a RITA city   For OHIO >> TurboTax supports all CCA and RITA returns, close to 300 cities and municipalities in all. Visit each agency's website for a complete listing of CCA member communities and the RITA list. RITA returns must be printed and mailed, even if your Ohio return is e-filed.     You can complete the return when you go through the Ohio state return interview.    See this TurboTax FAQ

You can get your SSA-1099 form online by signing into your My Social Security account at ssa.gov. You can view, print, or save your Form SSA-1099. The Social Security Administration mails these forms out every January. If you did not receive it or you can't find it, you can  request a replacement by calling the SSA or visiting a local office.   To get a replacement SSA-1099 form, you can call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday.  It takes about ten days to get it.   Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.

Ohio has a complicated system of local and city taxes, including RITA tax.  If you live or work in a RITA area, you are subject to paying RITA.   If you work in a RITA area, your employer will withhold the necessary amount from your pay, but if you also live in a RITA area--which might be a different RITA area, you will need to file a return for the RITA area in which you live.   You can do that after you complete your state return with TurboTax or you can go to the RITA site and prepare and file from the RITA site I personally find it easier to use the RITA site.   Various RITA areas may have different tax rates.   RITA Web site:  http://www.ritaohio.com/     Of course----if you live and/or  work in OH you need to be certain of what kind of taxing locality you are in---you might be in something other than a RITA area....... http://www.tax.ohio.gov/Individual/LocalTaxInformation.aspx

I am in the same situation as some of the others who have asked this question or replied or asked further questions.   THIS IS A REAL FAILURE OF TURBOTAX. Turbotax has ALL of my taxpayer information to complete this section on foreign tax credit.   I have no qualified dividend income or capital gains.   My total foreign tax paid is only a little over $600 and the foreign dividend income is much larger.   I followed all the Turbotax basic instructions (including supplemental instructions)   on how to complete the Foreign Tax Credit.   I am giving up this year, will claim a deduction rather than a credit, and move my foreign mutual funds into IRAs.  Since I will take the standard deduction for 2025,  the inability to take a credit  will cost me $600+.
Ive made an error and want to review all from the beginning.

Corrective distributions removed by the tax deadline are no longer subject to the 10% early withdrawal penalty. Follow these steps: Enter the 1099-R: Go to Federal > Wages & Income > Retirement Plans and Social Security > IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan (1099-R). You can use your broker's information to enter details like broker name, address, EIN, etc. Box 1 gross distribution  Box 2a taxable amount  Box 7 code P to let the IRS know you took it in 2026 for prior year. Penalty Exception: If TurboTax tries to apply a 10% early withdrawal penalty on the earnings, continue through the screens until you reach "Special Situations" or "Penalty Exceptions." Select the exception for "Corrective distributions made before the due date of the return." This will zero out any penalty on Form 5329. Verify the Math: Check your Form 1040, Line 4b. It should show $3,225 as taxable income. Check Form 5329. Line 2 should now show the $3,225 as an exception, and Line 4 (the actual penalty) should be $0.

Before you amend, make sure that your original return has been fully processed by the IRS, this means that you have received your refund or that you have already paid if you had a balance.  Make sure that you do have to amend a return, calculation issues are usually resolved by the IRS.  Some of the most common situations where you would need to amend are if you missed a credit, need to add/remove a dependent,  change your filing status, or add additional income.    To amend your return:   Log in to your TurboTax account Go to Tax Home On the FAQ's on the right side, select How do I amend my return? The option of Amend Using TurboTax will show, select it. The program will guide you as you make the changes necessary, you do not need to enter anything other than what you are changing.     How to File an Amended Tax Return with the IRS

If you are saying you left a form off from your tax return and you need to add another one, you can not unless your return gets rejected by the IRS. As xmasbaby0 mentions above, you will have to wait until your tax return is fully processed and you have received your refund to amend your tax return to add the form.    Also,  the IRS may correct your tax return to include this form if it is a form that is reported to the IRS like a W-2 or 1099. If the IRS corrects your tax return, you will not have to amend it.  You will receive a Notice from the IRS if they make a correction (likely a Notice CP2000).  You only need to file an amended return if the IRS didn't catch the error and you need to pay additional tax, or if you disagree with the IRS's calculation.   You may be able to see beforehand if they are sending you a notice by accessing your IRS.gov Online account . You can use this link to access/create an online account Online account for individuals.   Once your tax return is fully processed, to amend your return using TurboTax Online(if you used TurboTax Online to prepare your original tax return) you will: Log in to your TurboTax account. At your homepage, look for "Your tax returns & documents" and select the correct tax year. The you will select the "Amend (change) return" dropdown and in the dropdown choose "Amend using TurboTax Online". Follow your prompts, and select your reason for amending. Make your corrections, and make your corrections (add your interest income). Make sure to review your return before filing and then  follow the prompts to e-file or print and mail Form 1040-X to the IRS.     You will be able to track your amended return using this link  Where's My Amended Return? on IRS.gov.

I am baffled by this failure for TurboTax 2025 Premier to  download my stock sale info from Fidelity brokerage  (National Financial Services, LLC) as it did in previous years   Am I missing something?  Do I need to do all this detail transaction detail?   Do I need to provide detail transaction data (each stock transaction) to e-file file my return?   I was able to manually enter all the  SUMMARY  proceeds stock transaction data into TurboTax by copying it in manually from my printed National Financial Services report   My TurboTax program seems happy with this and is ready to let me e-file, but I am not certain that my filing is really complete

The phrase "Nonded contrib - taxpayer" stands for Nondeductible Contributions made by the taxpayer, most commonly referring to contributions made to an IRA (or similar plan) that cannot be deducted from your taxable income.    Since you most likely received a deduction for your contributions to your son's TAP 529 plan in Pennsylvania, you can enter $0 if the review demands an entry.   Here's more info on the PA 529 Plan.   @trainboyd

I can't really argue with your math.  I think the catch is the percentage you're using based on the days that you owned each home - a) I'm not sure it's ok and b) it's certainly not something TurboTax could calculate.     I would just tell you to make sure that you have thoroughly documented everything including this equation and set it aside in case there are questions later.
