  Reply to message The easy step interview will not ask about anything other than Books and supplies under the 1098-T part. And the 1099 Q easy step does not ask about any other expenses like room and board. When I attempt to override by entering the expenses manually on the student info work sheet, the entry is in blue and it is not saved. because after closing the program and restarting it, the entry on the form vanishes. There seems to be no way to get around this bug.  But we can leave 1099 Q out because that is not sent to IRS anyway I believe.   It says on the form it is sent to IRS   It says right on the 1099 Q it is sent to the IRS

If you are sure that you have satisfied all RMD requirements, then in TurboTax, on each form 1099-R for RMD withdrawals, answer that The entire distribution was an RMD then on the following page, to the question What is the RMD for your account? enter the amount of the distribution from that IRA account.   By doing this, you are telling TurboTax that all RMDs are satisfied and TurboTax will not calculate any penalty. The information you entered in TurboTax is to enable TurboTax to calculate any penalty where applicable, and is not reported to the IRS.

My MAGI is $250,000, so the phaseout amount is $100,000, therefore my refund should be $6000. (.06x100,000). TurboTax is calculating $4982
With online you can only prepare one return per account.   Each additional return incurs a separate charge.

I have multiple IRA accounts.  To address my RMD obligation I calculated the RMD amounts for each account to get my total RMD due.  I fulfilled my total RMD requirement by withdrawing more out of one account than two of the others.     Even though I have withdrawn the total RMD obligation I have for 2025, TurboTax is indicating that I owe a penalty approaching $10,000.  This is woefully incorrect.   Is there a way to correct this problem in Turbo Tax?
Can't use Turbo Tax 2025.  Want to cancel and get refund.

I filed as early as I could and was originally told that I was supposed to get my refund on 2/11 (tomorrow). I got the notification today (the day before I was expecting to get them) that I'll have to wait an extra 3 weeks. I am furious.

Married Filing Single. I was at Review of State info when I had a question about mortgage interest. She picked up something about our turning an RV garage into a handicap accessible residence. It's 100 feet away from our primary residence. No one is living in it yet. The TT Expert suggested I check into deductions for spray foam insulation, doors, windows and appliances! I was almost finished then she brought up this help! My question -  It is not our Primary Residence. What all can I use for deductions/credits or whatever? Where do I go to learn how I can find what information is needed before I can enter anything into TT?   A BIG thanks to any help!

There are several questions on the screen in TurboTax that says Let's dig into your situation to see if we can understand it better. This is in the section where you enter a Form 1099-G reporting unemployment benefits. If that is the section you are concerned about, can you clarify which question on that screen you answered "yes" to?
If you save the pdf it should have the complete form including all of the numbers.  Just save it or print as pdf and view it then.
