You can check this using Forms Mode in TurboTax Desktop. It's unlikely the Box 8 loss from Schedule K-1 (1065) would be reported as a Capital Asset Sale unless you disposed of this investment during the year.   Open your return and click the Forms icon in the TurboTax header.  In the list of Forms in My Return on the left, scroll down and look for Form 8949 under Schedule D. Click the form name to open it in the large window.  If the error from Schedule D Line 3 appears on this form, right click the description and click Data Source. Choose the forms listed in the popup as possible sources - Cap Asset Sales is one. Note that Schedule K-1 can be a source if the partnership interest was disposed of during the year. Review the other sources to rule out other transactions. Cap Asset Sales (1) has a Quick Entry table that can be edited (blue font in yellow box). You cannot change any entries in black. Overrides will invalidate your return from e-filing. If you are able to identify the entry and resolve the issue, click Step-by-Step in the header to return to the main screens.

It depends. If you receive annuity payments from a nonqualified retirement plan, you must use the general rule. Generally, if you begin receiving annuity payments from a qualified retirement plan, you use the simplified method to figure the tax-free part of the payments. Most employee benefit plans are qualified plans.

Yes, TurboTax will report your 1231 losses per the IRS code. To trace how TurboTax is handling your 1231 losses, you may wish to print/preview the forms in your return. In TurboTax Online, you can download a PDF by going to the left column and choosing Print Center under Tax Tools.   According to the IRS Instructions for Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) Box 10, if the amount is a loss from a passive activity, the Passive Loss Limitations for Form 4797 would apply. The calculation of the allowed loss is made per the instructions for Form 8582.   See also: Can I print a copy of my TurboTax Online return before I file it?

You should review all imported data, regardless of the source. If Form 1099-B should be marked for digital assets, you can check that box as you review.   TurboTax import is not perfect; it is a starting point for reducing manual entries.

It's possible you missed the question regarding US residency. Go to Federal Review and look for a question under your personal info that states "We lived in the US for at least 6 months in 2025." Be sure the box is checked.   Complete the review to be sure your citizen status has been updated.

To edit information on the Car & Truck Worksheet in TurboTax Online, you need to review your answers under the Vehicle expense topic for your Schedule C or Schedule E business.

Is the 2 years calculated using the calendar year? I last lived in my home in May 2025 (and lived there for more than 2 years before that). Does this mean if I sell by May 2028 I will meet the residency requirement?

Are you claiming a qualified dependent?   Am I Head of Household?   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-filing-status/qualify-head-household-2021/L0NxUtVc2_US_en_US?uid=m5x19jkx https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-filing-status/qualifying-person-head-household/L2TmgztNs_US_en_US   If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your marital status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.  

Si hiciste un pago de impuestos hace dos semanas por transferencia bancaria y parece que no se ha recibido, es muy probable que el pago aún esté en proceso o que haya un retraso en la actualización del estado. Aquí hay algunos pasos que podrías considerar: 1. Revisa tu estado de cuenta bancario para confirmar que la transferencia se completó y que se descontó el monto. 2. Verifica nuevamente el estado del pago en tu cuenta de TurboTax o en la sección de pagos de impuestos para ver si ha habido alguna actualización. 3. Espera unos días más si la transferencia es reciente, ya que los tiempos de procesamiento pueden variar. Si después de un tiempo el pago aún no aparece como recibido, podrías verificar los detalles de la transferencia o el método de pago para asegurarte de que se haya enviado correctamente.

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities.  There is no rule as to which one will come in first or how long it will be between their arrival in your account.   TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.  “21 days”  is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS.      First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/   Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.     You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:    https://www.irs.gov/refunds   To track your state refund:     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr   If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/refunds-take-longer-others/L14YlqFrH_US_en_US?uid=lexdr7zh . https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/irs-refund-taking-longer-21-days/L2vRAJbdU_US_en_US?uid=lexe7lst         If you are getting earned income credit on line 27 or additional child tax credit on line 28 You are subject to the delay required by the PATH act.  Do not expect your refund before early March   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/internal-revenue-service/federal-refunds-delayed-due-path-act/L5jnQJsBi_US_en_US   Note:  “Accepted” is not the same as “approved”.  TurboTax tells you the e-file was accepted if the IRS deems that there is enough information on the return for them to take it in for processing.   Only the IRS can approve of the refund, which is a later stage of processing.  If the IRS approves your refund they will provide a date for the refund to be issued.   FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE: https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund How it works Where's My Refund shows your refund status: Return Received – We received your return and are processing it. Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown. Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.    

I'm going to ask @Rick19744 to get involved here because he's essentially an expert in partnership taxation but you would use the stepped-up basis to report the sale on your 8949 (and Schedule D).   You also need to report your share of the income (ordinary and otherwise) from the K-1 during the period following the death of the decedent through the date of the sale. Further, the decedent's share (prior to passing) as reflected on the K-1 needs to be reported on the final return, although you might be able to get away with reporting all of it on your return since K-1s are generally considered to be based on the end of the tax year stated on that Schedule.    It should be noted that, for the most part, any suspended losses (passive losses) do not carry over to you and are simply lost pretty much forever in these scenarios.   I am sorry for your loss.
