Of course my home address is correct on my return and of course I have no out of country address. That's why I'm asking the question. No, I am not taking the EIC, but that box on the front of my return says nothing about the EIC, so it should be checked regardless. I am using the online version, so apparently I can't go in and check the box manually? Do I have any other option to get that box that should be checked to be checked? I refuse to submit a return with an obvious error on it. Will TurboTax fix this bug so I can submit an accurate return? Or can I get a refund on my TurboTax fees so I can get someone else to prepare my return accurately?

I have 3 1099LTC forms issued by two different companies. Company A issued two 1099LTCs. The first one had the "Per Diem" box checked off and the second one had the "Reimbursed Amount" box checked off. Company B issued the 1099LTC with the "Reimbursed Amount" box checked off. One of the first statements is "Long-Term Care Payments. Payments received for long-term care are usually reported on Form 1099-LTC. Total the amounts received from all forms 1099-LTC for the long-term care of ...". At this stage you don't enter anything and can only press "Continue". The next question is: Gross Per Diem LTC Benefits: Enter the total amounts from box 1 of all Forms 1099-LTC received for (Name of Person) ONLY if the "per diem" box is checked in box 3 of the forms." Then it has you enter "Per Diem Gross Benefits". And this was done. It goes through a number of other screens. Then comes to LTC costs and the total number of days and costs are entered. Then it's done. The next screen allows me to enter a new person, but that doesn't apply. Where do I enter the 1099LTC payments for the "Reimbursed Amounts"? The first statement in TurboTax about totaling all amounts received but then only asking for the total of Per Diem amounts doesn't make any sense, especially if TurboTax doesn't ask about "Reimbursed Amounts". How and where do I enter the other 1099LTCs?

The fee to e-file a return isn't charged until you actually complete the filing process. You may, however, purchase a state return module and install that software before you need it.

I am confused about how you would get a 1099 -- you used your correct SSN but a false name? If you could have connected your bank account and withdrawn the money, or if you could have changed your name and asked for a check or bank deposit, then it is your money even if you never actually collected it and it is taxable.

I lived 5 months in NJ, and 7 months in NC. So I can allocate 5/12 for my NJ PY return. But TurboTax does not allow a 7/12 allocation for NC. (This is an error.)

Today 4Mar26 and I was able to amend my 2025return via 1040X. Using desktop Deluxe. BUT the rendering to a .PDF (from the forms view) is NOT correct. Acrobat notifies you via pop-up that there is a problem and to "contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." The form view is correct. I have not been able to pass this info to Turbo Tax support - Can anyone here pass this along? Thank you

No, it's not a system designed to reduce heat gain or loss, like insulation.

It depends. If you received a 1099-G for unemployment you can use the steps in the link below.

A control number is not needed unless you want to import. If you type your W-2 yourself, it will not be needed and you can proceed.

I have attempted to import my tax forms from Schwab and Vanguard. Turbo Tax crashes and restarts. I have yet to see this work. I did not have this problem last year. The software crashing is not acceptable for this basic functionality.
