Para saber si hiciste tus impuestos del año 2024 en TurboTax Online, revisa la sección Mis declaraciones o Historial en tu cuenta. Ahí podrás ver si tu declaración del 2024 está marcada como presentada o en progreso. Si la declaración está completa y presentada, generalmente aparecerá como "Enviada" o "Completada". Si no ves nada para el 2024, puede que aún no hayas empezado o completado esa declaración.

When this happens, it could be due to a combination of your income attributable to the home office and your other business expenses wiping out any profit that could be reduced by the home office expense.     Go back through the early questions of the home office section and double check your answers.  Remember that if you perform all of your work in the home office, then you would put 100% of your time was spent there for the period of time you had a home office.     Or, if you are using either TurboTax desktop Premier or Deluxe, you will not see the question asking for the percentage of time spent working in your home office.  You will need to enter this information using Forms by following the steps below.    Click Forms in the upper right corner. Look for Form 8829 on the left side of the screen under Schedule C and highlight this form.   Scroll down the page to the section titled Line 8 Calculation Smart Worksheet.  It will have a box around it. Type 100 in the box on line B.  If you did not use your home office 100% of the time for your business, but you also performed work in other locations, then enter the appropriate percentage of time for your situation. This will then calculate the home office deduction.

not sure about the bug but if you have multiple 1099-INTs for the same payer you can just input one 1099-INT for the total amount, or put an account ref after the name if you want, I do that frequently where I need to break up a brokerage 1099 for various reasons.  IRS even allows multiple payers per entry on Schedule B so they're not checking each payer name, just totals.

See this if you have a nonresident alien spouse - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-and-deductions/help/how-should-i-file-my-taxes-if-my-spouse-is-a-nonresident-alien/01/1707071?search-action-id=615271561594&search-result-uid=1707071

The suggested solution, to uncheck final return, is not acceptable.  If the business closed in 2025, then 2025 is the final return. The program should know that the $800 is still owed for 2025. In my situation, I'm using the desktop home and business. The LLC in question was dissolved in December of 2025. Filing a tax return for 2026 when a business didn't even exist on January 1st of that year, makes no sense. Will the experts here agree that it's a bug in the program that it doesn't know the $800 for the final year return is still owed?     UPDATE: The desktop version allows me to override and type in 800. Since I have two LLC's I have to mail it in anyway, so I guess that's my solution.

Yes, you can combine the W2-G inputs together in order to make fewer entries into TurboTax as long as they are issued by the same casino.  Just be sure the total of all of your entries matches the total from your actual Form W2-Gs.

If you are referring to tax year 2024 and used TurboTax for the 2024 tax return, then you can file an amended tax return for 2024.   See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a prior year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-already-filed/L4VjJ9BA2_US_en_US?uid=ld1n99kr

There is a section for vehicle expenses under the Schedule E inputs where you enter your rental property information.  That is where the information for the use of your personal vehicle in connection with your rental property will be entered.     You will need the total miles driven for rental property purposes, as well as the total miles driven for the year.  The expectation is that you have kept a log of the miles driven so you have documentation for the deduction.  Just like driving your personal vehicle for business purposes, if you own the vehicle, you can claim either the standard mileage deduction or actual expenses.

@wethreekeens you should have received a form 1099-R from the administrator of the IRA.   Did you receive that form? whose social security number is on that form and what code is in Box 7?    Can you comment more on what this means: " my name does not appear"?
