To receive a certified version, you cannot simply download it; you must submit a formal request and have it processed by the state. Use the official Request for Copy of Tax Returns (DR 5714) form. On the form, you must explicitly check the box for a "Certified Copy" rather than just a standard copy. For security and identity protection, your signature on Form DR 5714 must be notarized before submission.
The Colorado Department of Revenue does not accept these requests via fax, email, or digital upload due to the requirement for original signatures. Mail the notarized form to: Colorado Department of Revenue Tax Files — Room B112 P.O. Box 17087 Denver, CO 80217-0087

Yes, it is perfectly fine for your entry to appear under the "1099-B" section even though you have a 1099-S. TurboTax uses the same investment interview (Form 8949/Schedule D) to process most property and asset sales.
Since you sold a permanent easement but still own the underlying land, you usually do not have to pay tax on this money immediately. Instead, the IRS considers this a "recovery of cost". You should reduce the original cost (basis) of your property by the amount you received ($9,475).
Because the IRS received a copy of your 1099-S, you must report it to avoid a mismatch notice. To make it non-taxable: Enter $9,475 as the Sales Proceeds. Enter $9,475 as the Cost Basis (this results in $0 gain). Keep a record that your property's actual basis has now decreased by $9,475 for when you eventually sell the entire property in the future.

I just filed my state a local tax returns. (Federal already accepted, State pending.) Now I located a 1099-R that was not entered. It has the impact of reducing what I owe to federal and increasing what I owe to state. How do I used TurboTax to amend the return? I'm most concerned with the underpayment to state.

As long as you have documentation for the expenses, there is no reason to be concerned that your rental property is showing a loss for 2025. This can happen from time to time, especially when repairs or improvements are made between tenants. Keep your receipts and documentation of the work that was done with your other tax paperwork.

GA exemption for over 65 is 65000 and between 62 and 65 years is 35000. Yes I allocated the capital gains, Interest and dividends among the joint filers. I was asked the question to do it again in the GA tax. It should have reduced it by the max but for some reason it did not. Seemed to be it did not include the interest and dividends. When i forced the entry and ignored the error, it totaled 100K for both filers

For the 2025 tax year, most New Hampshire residents are not required to file a state return at all so no state extension is needed. New Hampshire is a unique state for tax filing because it does not have a personal income tax on W-2 wages. Historically, residents only filed a state return (Form DP-10) if they had significant investment income, but as of January 1, 2025, the Interest and Dividends (I&D) Tax has been fully repealed.

Thank you soooo much for the quick response. I do have one other question. My SC return is showing a standard deduction adjustment under the Federal to State Differences addback OBBB Smart Worksheet of $1,500 plus an additional amount for my overtime earnings adjustment as a total add back to income for SC purposes. Is this correct? I can't see to click even in the forms to see where the $1,500 came from.

Agree, and in past years they did include one state e-file. They did not inform regular users of the change this year, which feels very deceptive. It's disappointing.

Today my form1040 owes some money; but I will take the form1116 tax credit on my 2025return next month, after I file & pay my Portugal tax. Therefore, the money that I owe to US will be reduced, so therefore I do not need to pay any estimated amount now, as the final calculation next month will be less than my 2025withholding. Correct? (in principle)
