If your TurboTax Filing Instructions don't show the payment date, the federal tax is generally withdrawn on April 15, 2026, by default.  Part V of the Federal Information Worksheet in your downloaded return PDF shows the scheduled debit date.   @taxdeduct2017 

 If your parents filed first and your return is being rejected, you should be able to go to MY INFO, click your name and go through the screens to the question that asks if you can be claimed as someone else's dependent.   Change your answer and say YES, then try to re-file.   If you are still unable to e-file, then file it by mail.   Print, sign and date your return in ink, and mail it.  When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.   Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.     @hockey-aiden19

Thank you for confirming that AL does not tax the rollover!  Also, thank you for pointing out the AL 529 deduction!  I have that entered in!    I am still having an issue of TurboTax putting the transfer on Form 40, Part I, line 6f "Taxable distributions from non-Alabama Plan (Form 1099Q)." The amount being put onto that line is the Total transfer minus the basis (i.e., total gain).     I looked for a credit that would cancel it out, but I don't see any credits getting applied.  There is the adjustment to income of $10k due to the AL 529 contribution deduction.  But that's all I see.   Since this should not be taxable, how do I make TurboTax stop putting it on the taxable line?     Thanks!

@jmtmomo3 A state return cannot be e-filed unless the federal return has been successfully e-filed.  If you file federal by mail you will also have to mail the state return.  When you use online TurboTax the fee is the same whether you e-file or file by mail.   

I believe you are confusing the two concepts: There is a deemed gain at the S corporation level when distributing property.  This is an S corporation level gain that is passed out to you the shareholder. This gain increases your basis since it is being passed out as ordinary income. So no double tax

when you enter its tax basis,  it will be the FMV on the date of death + the cost of subsequent improvements. There's no requirement to split these out, so you can enter as a single number.  Is there something that is preventing you from doing this, is so please advise. 

If the interest income has been entered correctly, the subtraction should be reported on the Hawaii state income tax return.   Hawaii does not tax interest on Federal obligations.  See the CCH here.   Hawaii excludes income that the United States Constitution prohibits it from taxing. ( Haw Rev Stat Sec. 235-7(a)(1) ; HAC No. 18-235-7-01 ) Therefore, the state does not tax interest on federal obligations, including United States Savings Bonds. Interest on federal obligations is subtracted from federal adjusted gross income in calculating Hawaii adjusted gross income.   In TurboTax, in the Hawaii state income tax return, check Hawaii form N-11 Subtractions Worksheet line a to see whether the Federal interest has been subtracted.   In addition, on the Hawaii form N-11, see lines 18 and 19 for Subtractions.
