Thanks @MarilynG1 , unfortunately this approach is not working either, I updated Trade or business Name of both properties as LLC Name - Property name, but I am still getting the same message. I did something else to test, I removed the QBI from the property that is triggering the message and the message disappeared, then I added QBI back and left Business Name and ID blank (as there is no LLC related) and again I got the same error, the only difference is that my name appears in Trade or Business name and Trade or Business Id is empty on the screen. I believe this is TurboT defect or something like that

No.   TurboTax does not have your W-2's.   W-2's come from employers.     If your employer is partnered with TurboTax to allow the W-2 data to be imported into the software you can do that---but you need the actual W-2 so that you can enter the EIN and the amount from box 1 to import the other data from the W-2---which just saves you the little bit of keying in of the other information.   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.     Every 2025 W-2 that you received must be reported on your 2025 tax return, even if they are for small amounts.  Remember that each one of those W-2’s has your Social Security number on it, and that income was reported to the IRS by the employer.  You do not want trouble with the IRS for under-reporting your income or have your refund delayed by having missing income.   ALL of your 2025 W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return.     Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2. After you enter the first one, you click Add Another 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  

Go back to the source of the QBI and review your entries looking for QBI questions and answer them. Look for a comma or space that should not be in your answer. You may need to delete the Form 8995 and related forms to QBI to force the program to let you try again. Online: see How do I view and delete forms in TTO? Desktop: Switch to Forms mode and delete

I was able to fix it by using another browser and it was accepted. But that was on March 6. It’s been well past 21 days and when I checked the status of my refund, all it says is status not available. I have never had this happen. Was it likely due to the first return that was not accepted because of this glitch?Anyone else having this issue after filing?

Thanks, I tried making Column B zero for the 7-mipacted months and TurboTax says the amount for each month in this column must be greater than zero. It turns red and will not allow me to proceed, so I still am not able to resolve the issue.

TurboTax receives no information from the state after you file your tax return.   You need to follow up with the state to find out what happened.   To track your state refund:       ttps://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0  

if you're struggling with an imported 1099 just delete it and enter manually.  these payer details are not needed to file just payer name and box amounts.   when inputting 1099-MISC beware to answer the supplementary questions carefully if it's passive income from an investment, brokerage bonus etc then say NO to the question on "intent to earn money" or it will trigger Schedule C.

Who is Hugh?  How is he related to you?  Generally, yes.  If someone was able to be on your return as either a spouse or dependent and they passed away during the year, you can still add them to your return as if they were alive.  You would need to check the box that says they passed away during the year in the personal info section. 

I have the same problem with my 1099R form not having any boxes beyond 15.  So, do I just leave it blank in my turboTax, and let it stay flagged?  Or do I copy the amount from another box?  I am an Ohio resident, in case that makes a difference.

To enter your 1099R:    Select Federal from the left-hand menu. Click on the Wages & Income tab. Scroll down until you see the section labeled Retirement Plans and Social Security. Select Start or Revisit next to IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R)
