It’s probably too late now but here is how it’s suppose to work for the Online version. In case anyone else finds this thread. Or it may help you figure it out. What did you get charged for? Was it for a state return? How to use the Online License Code. It is for federal only. State is additional. https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/register-activate-services/como-empiezo-...

Per @dmertz, the self-employment health insurance deduction should not affect your IRA contribution, as it does not affect earned income. However, if you want to try it you would follow these instructions: Since you entered a Form 1095-A, TurboTax will ask you if the insurance is associated with self-employment income. If you did not pay the insurance premiums from your self-employment income, you can answer "no" to that question and then your insurance premiums will not be deducted for the self-employed health insurance deduction. However, that may affect your insurance premium tax credit if you have one. You will see a screen that says Self Employed with Marketplace Plan? in the Medical section and then Affordable Care Act (1095-A). The question is are you self-employed and purchased a Marketplace plan. Answer "no" to that question.

We have a carriage house on the same property as our primary (and only residence) that we rent out to a year-round tenant. When appropriate we allocate expenses (25% carriage house, 75% main house), but we are confused about the mortgage interest deduction. From our understanding, we should treat 25% of the interest as an expense for the rental, but when we are asked to enter our interest from our 1098 in deductions it asks us to enter what the form says. Do we just adjust the form down by 25% when we enter our 1098 info? Definitely don't want to unintentionally double dip.

@1095shared , absent a letter from the IRS, the general rule is NOT to amend a return till the processing of the originally filed return has been fully processed. Thus if you "accepted" original return is still being processed and refund no issued, please wait till that step is completed.
Is there more one of us can do for you ?

@DaveF1006 one more questions, to figure out and do some analysis why my tax is high due to which 1099-div or 1099INT etc, is there way to turn off certain forms instead of deleting and re-importing?

I'm also having this problem. In 2024, the housing credit showed up just fine. I recorded a negative AGI of ($10,722) and that pulled through onto the state return as the "federal income" number. For 2025, I'm also recording a negative AGI of ($21,574) based on netting the standard deduction, less income, i.e., the Standard Deduction is higher than the Total Income. The taxpayer qualifies for the CO Housing Credit, but it is not showing on the list of CO credits and taxes. Turbotax should not be masking this option. The link below about the Social Security Income Exclusion is no longer working, so I assume the problem has been fixed and that is not the issue.

I maxed out my $4,300 HSA contribution in early 2025. I got married in early June & my wife has an FSA that I became automatically covered by. So my 2025 contribution limit was actually only $2,150 and thus I have an excess contribution of $2,150 + earnings on that to be removed.
I contacted my HSA custodian Optum Financial. That had me fill out an excess contribution removal form. They explicitly told me to leave the box for earnings on the excess contributions blank. Fast forward and they only returned the $2,150 and told me I was told incorrect information & that they do not calculate the excess earnings. They are now telling me I cannot remove the excess earnings because they cannot send them back alone, they can only do so if they are sent back along with an excess contribution.
So what do I do now? Has anyone had a similar situation and was able to get the earnings removed on their own?
I haven’t done the formula yet but the earnings is probably $300-400. If I can’t get that removed, how do I report this as income, and specifically as excess earnings that have not been removed, which will incur a 6% excise tax? The 1099-SA that I am going to receive is only going to show the $2,150 in excess contributions that was removed with $0 in earnings removed.
The issue is further compounded by the fact I continued contributing in 2026 even though my spouse still has an FSA (we are still on separate health plans; was unaware her FSA automatically covered me & made me ineligible for HSA until a few weeks ago). The $900 of YTD contributions in 2026 will be returned to me via payroll. There is still going to be earnings on that excess contribution in 2026. How can I get my custodian to send back the excess earnings by itself since the contributions are coming back via payroll? Seems crazy an HSA custodian can just refuse to do so.

Pdfs won't. CSV import for crypto was disabled for a time. I don't know if this has been rectified.
Under stocks in Desktop Deluxe, there is no option to import a PDF or CSV, only a TXF file or directly from your brokers if it partners with TurboTax.
for this process open your return . At the top, click on file. Scroll down and click on import.. select from Financial institution. Then enter the name, and if it's listed in the lower box, click on it. From here, the procedures for importing vary. If successful and back in TurboTax, you should see a list of what was imported. Below that is a blue icon that says "import now" click on it to actually complete import.
warning There have been many threads this year about issues with importing, even though you will get a "SUCCESSFUL" message.

My 2025 TurboTax on my computer is not getting data from my 2024 TurboTax file done on my computer NOT online. Upon starting 2025 it asked for the 2024 file, and I used Browse to find it.
