I am having the same problem.  The program enters all my trades as imported directly from my brokerage (Stifel) and calculates the capital gains total correctly.  It then also imports the amount from box 2a on my form 1099 from the brokerage and puts it on line 13 of schedule D, but then this gets added to the capital gains already entered in line 8a-10.  It's the same information entered twice and they get added together, doubling the total.

If it was not available to rent in 2025, you don't have anything to enter in the rental section yet.   What deductions can homeowners take?   If you just bought a house, you may be able to deduct:   Mortgage interest (including points) Property (real estate) tax Mortgage insurance (PMI or MIP) Unless it's a rental, you won't be able to deduct homeowner's insurance, repairs, mortgage insurance (2025),or home improvements. Also, moving expenses are no longer deductible for most taxpayers.   Be sure to hold onto your closing statement, as it lists expenses that could be deductible, like points and prepaid interest.

How to find your 1095-A online Log into your Marketplace account and select your 2025 application — not your 2026 application. Select “Tax Forms" from the menu.

Go to the screens to enter your spouse’s W-2’s, 1099’s, etc. just like you did for your own income.  Then look for your spouse’s name there.  

From the help article: How do I find last year's AGI?

If you owe tax due, you have to pay it yourself by the filing deadline on April 15, 2026.      If you have federal tax due you can pay by mailing your payment with the 1040V voucher, (which has the address printed on it, having the payment taken out of a designated bank account, or you can pay directly on the IRS website.    https://www.irs.gov/payments   https://www.irs.gov/payments/pay-your-taxes-by-debit-or-credit-card   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-payments/help/how-can-i-pay-my-federal-taxes/00/26212     https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-payments/help/how-do-i-pay-my-irs-tax-due-with-a-check-or-money-order/00/26403      To apply for a payment plan with the IRS   Apply Online for a Payment Plan     You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment.  For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0   WHAT IF I CANNOT PAY MY TAX DUE? https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-payments/pay-taxes/L8aQBCpPO_US_en_US?uid=m9iryksw

The 1099 has already been filed with the federal and state but the program needs the correct toggle in that area. It sounds like you are saying you have the same state listed twice on your form. If so, add the numbers or correct the numbers to make one good line. You can only have a state listed once. Check for another state entry that should be there instead - verify your form is actually correct Make sure the program doesn't think there is an extra line - delete blank state line - it will show but maybe some stuck data will clear.   If you need extra time, filing an extension by April 15, 2026, moves your submission deadline to October 15. But remember any taxes owed are still due in full by the original April 15 date.  Pay through either Direct Pay or your individual online account. See if you need to file a state extension.
