You are not exempt from paying income tax or from having tax withheld for Social Security and Medicare.   Do not say on a W-4 that you are exempt.   If your earnings for 2025 are less than than $15, 750, then you will be able to get a refund of the amount that is in box 2 of your W-2 when you prepare a 2025 tax return in early 2026.   You will not get back anything withheld for Social Security or Medicare.   And....at 16, you can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return, so when you prepare your return for 2025, it will be important for you to say on your own tax return that you can be claimed as someone else's dependent.

In order to run TT on native Mac silicon, mine is M4, you need to install Rosetta. Rosetta is the transition layer that allows software built for Intel hardware to run on Apple silicone.    if you Open System Information. In the left column select Applications. Then sort the results by Kind. If you have any Intel software on your machine, Rosetta has been installed so it can run..   translation software can slow down your machine and cause other nasty things to happen.  Apple provides binaries that    applications can be written to support both processors natively.  It’s time that TurboTax be updated to support both.

I am a 70 year old woman caring for her disabled adult son. I received nontaxable Medicaid waiver payments according to Notice 2014-7 and also SS benefit and some interest from retirement accounts. My question is regarding the Social Security benefit Worksheet:   when you calculate the taxable part of social security benefit, do you have to add in line 3 of the worksheet the nontaxable Medicaid waiver payment? I know the Medicaid waiver payment is not added to the adjusted income, but taxable SS benefit is and it is not clear to me if I should add or not the Medicaid payment to the other sources of income (line 3= lines 1z+2b+3b+4b+5b+7+8), since line 8 is negative income showing the Medicaid nontaxable payments. I know it is not a common situation/interest, but for me it is a lot of time consuming with no result until now. Thank you,
Can I use Turbo Tax to file estimated taxes with the State and Federal govt. I do not need Turbo Tax to do my return.
I’m 16 years old and am working my first job. I live in Alabama and I want to know if I’m exempt from taxes before I get my first check. Should I claim exemption or do I have to pay?
My new iMac (M2 or M3 I believe) runs TT desktop 2023 and 2024 just fine.  Where are you seeing information that it doesn't?
On the left there is a little box called "Flags". I use it to add notes. It even links to the section that I want to associate with that note. Try it!
Does anyone know if Intuit has addressed this issue?  A search of the TurboTax is futile.  I really need to know iif I should be looking for a TT replacement or not.   Thanks

There may be an unfortunate tax penalty to you here. If an individual pays disability premiums personally with after-tax dollars, the disability benefits are not taxable. So there is a chance that the original W-2s were correct, reflecting no taxable benefits.   But if those payments had to be repaid if you received SS Disability benefits, you are returning benefits which were not taxed (appropriately) but replacing them with taxable SS benefits. You can't record a credit or a deduction in the current year if those prior year benefits weren't taxed in the first place.

We had a rental the remained unrented in all of 2024. It had been a rental in the prior 10+ years We did not attempt to rent the property in any of 2024 After significant expenses in both 2024 and 2025 the property sold My understanding is all those expenses should now be used to adjust our basis? By default, the 2024 TurboTax return wants to take depreciation for that year. I think I should not be taking that depreciation? How to I report all of this in my 2024 return? If I convert my property on 2024 to personal use in TurboTax will it still have all my information about depreciation for the 2025 sale?  
I used the second state for another partnership but dont want in this file!   Please help!
No.  Those are not income taxes, they are classified as employment taxes, and the amount of those taxes has nothing to do with your income tax.
