It depends. If your residence is in one county but you spend a significant amount of time in another county, then just file a return for the county/state of your residence, unless you also earn income in the second location. If that's the case, then you may need to file a nonresident return for the other location.   If, instead, you lived in one location for about half the year and then moved your primary residence to the other location, then file a return for the first location as a part-year resident and then file a return for the second location as a resident.   For more information on this topic, see Multiple States—Figuring What's Owed When You Live and Work in More Than One State.  

Some users report that TurboTax does not allow electronic filing of Oregon state returns even when the federal return transmits successfully. This is most likely to occur if you have a specialized or local tax form that isn't supported for e-filing. See this TurboTax online tool for the list of Oregon state forms and which are supported for e-filing.   If you have a form that isn't supported for e-filing, you will need to print and mail your Oregon return. Change the entry in the File section that indicates how you want to file the state return to show "mail". TurboTax will provide mailing instructions.  

Some TurboTax customers are experiencing issues when entering the captcha to e-file their taxes. Follow these steps to fix this issue:   Disconnect from any virtual private network (VPN) connections you may be using. This alone may fix the issue. Sign out of TurboTax. Clear your cache to remove any problematic temporary files. Close your browser. Reopen your browser and allow cookies. Sign in to TurboTax and try to e-file again. See this help article for more information.    

Try the steps in this help article:   You may receive a message like:   ZIP code is invalid for Electronic Filing. You must enter a valid ZIP code for your state. Enter a correct ZIP code in this format 'nnnnn' or 'nnnnn-nnnn'   TurboTax follows the IRS guidelines for acceptable ZIP codes. If the two-letter state abbreviation doesn't match the ZIP code, you'll receive this error when attempting to e-file.   If you receive this error:   Double-check you entered the correct two-letter state code Make sure you've entered the ZIP code in either 5-digit or 9-digit format (for example 12345 or 12345-6789) Look up the correct ZIP code for the street address in question  

It's possible to still have withholding with very little earnings - it depends on what you entered on your Form W-4. Contact your employer/ their payroll office with questions about the information on your pay stub.   As @LindaS5247 advised earlier, you can also enter an additional amount on your new W-4 in Step 4(c) to increase your withholding by a specific amount every pay period. If you have an idea how much additional withholding you need to cover your tax liability for the year 2026, divide that amount by the number of pay periods remaining in the year to get the amount to enter in Step 4(c) for one of your W-4 forms.   In TurboTax, select Other Tax Situations, then Form W-4 and Estimated Taxes to prepare a W-4 in the program that you can give to your employer.    In addition, TurboTax's TaxCaster is available without opening your return and will estimate your total taxes. It is currently set to calculate 2025 taxes but you could use your 2026 estimated income and deductions to get a good estimate for 2026.   You can also use the IRS Withholding Estimator to calculate amounts to be withheld from wages. @lauramsnow   

If you are still having this issue, you would need to contact Customer Support to update your account internally. We don't have that access in the Community.   After April 15, 2026, TurboTax experts are available Monday through Friday, from 5 AM to 5 PM PT. Near the September and October extension deadlines, TurboTax will resume extended hours, including evenings and weekends.    

Thank you! But if I am married, filing jointly and my spouse and I have multiple jobs, do we just need to enter an additional amount to withhold per check? On a recent paycheck, I noticed there was zero withheld for federal taxes. Do you know if there is a certain amount where federal tax is not taken out? I did not mark exempt.  Thanks in advance for your help!

Or are you also asking if your return was Accepted?  When you efile you get back 2 emails. The first email only confirms the transmission. The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile. Check back though your emails and spam/junk folder.   For the Desktop program you have to check the filing status inside the program. Open your return and go up to menu item File > Electronic Filing > Check Electronic Filing Status  

Did you already file and applied part of y our refund to next  year?     If you haven't filed yet,    To change the entry you made to apply your Federal refund to next year Federal Taxes Tab or Personal (H&B version) Other Tax Situations Additional Tax Payments Apply Refund to Next Year - Click the Start or Update button and answer NO or delete the amount. For State, See if this works. Go to State Taxes tab and keep continuing and stepping though the interview about a dozen or more screens and it will finally ask how much of your refund you want to apply. You can change it to zero. It is probably one of the last questions in the state section.

Hi @WendyN2 I am reviewing this thread because I was just approved for SSDI and received backpay for almost 2 years. My insurance agent actually mentioned the concern for ACA premium tax credits and suggested I look into amending my tax returns. Since your answer is from 2021, I am wondering if this is still accurate or if something has changed since? LB

I'm currently going through the same process.  I was told by 2 different individuals that my money would be refunded but recently received an email stating my refund was denied.  I will not stop until I get my money back  This sounds systemic.
