My wife took advantage of the once-in-a-lifetime transfer from a traditional IRA to her HSA in January of 2025. She transferred the maximum allowable amount $9550 ($8550 family plan max +$1000 due to age).  She made no other contributions and was not employed.  Due to my age, I was able to contribute $1000 separately to my HSA.  Her transfer was done trustee to trustee.  She and I were both covered by a family HDHP the entire year.  Using the step-by-step process, Turbotax 2025, correctly calculated and populated forms (8889 & 1040) characterizing the transfer as non-taxable.   However, Turbotax also generated form 5329 and calculated that the entire $9550 transfer to her HSA was "excess" and subject to a 6% additional tax.  She made no other contributions to her HSA, and my only contribution to my HSA was $1000 due to age.  As best I can tell, there is no "excess".  I can't find any IRS rules (income limits, etc.) that would subject this transfer to the additional 6% tax.   Is this a Turbotax bug, or what am I missing?

Hi everyone,     I'm hoping someone can help. I purchased TurboTax 2025 (desktop) but can't get it to run on my Mac.     My setup:   - Apple M5 chip   - Latest macOS version     The problem:   When I try to open TurboTax, I get an error related to Rosetta 2. After running Apple's diagnostic in Terminal, I got the message: "Rosetta 2   update is not available" — meaning Rosetta 2 has been removed from my OS and the app can't launch at all.     Has anyone else run into this on a newer Mac? I     Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I purchased and installed the deluxe version of turbotax. I need to use the Premier version. I purchased the Premier version tried to delete the deluxe version and install the premium version but it always downloads the deluxe version.  How do I install the Premier version?

 I am using Windows Desktop Version of Home and Business.  I have been using Turbo Tax since 2004.   I did click on Amend a Filed Return (Refile a Return That Has Been Accepted by the IRS). The process was simple.  The printed product makes it confusing because the cover sheet in the second block says,  " Your amended tax return - Form 1040-X. Remember to sign and date the return. Be sure to attach all forms or schedules that changed to your amended return."  BUT The first viewable page is a1040-SR, not a 1040X.   Above that page there are 2 blank pages. Could it be that is where the 1040X is supposed to be and the program has a bug or has not been updated? That is the only sense I can make out of this.  Need a Turbo Tax tech employee to look at this and provide an answer, PLEASE. Thanks

Original mortgage was paid in full. Since 2018 I have had a HELOC on my residence. Outstanding mortgage principal was $6,000 as of 1/1/2025. In 2025, I withdrew HELOC funds throughout the year which totaled $140,000. These funds were used for home equity debt and for home improvement ($3,800). Ending balance for 2025 was $112,000 since some of the home equity principal was repaid during the year.  Total interest paid for 2025 was $4500. Which set of calculations below should be used to determine deductible home interest? Option 1. TURBO TAX CALCULATION: From the Home Interest Worksheet for Schedule A Home Acquisition Interest =total interest paid x (acquisition debt/ending principal balance) $4500 x ($3800/$112,000) =$152   Option 2. USING PUBLICATION 936, TABLE 1 Line 11: Qualified Loan Limit which is the same as home acquisition debt= $3800 Line 12: Calculated the sum of average monthly balances for home equity debt and home acquisition debt =$69,000 Line 13: total interest paid=$4500 Line 14: Line 11 divided by Line 12. $3800/$69000=0.055 Line 15: Deductible Home Interest: Line 13 multiplied by Line14. $4500 x .055=$247  While Option 2 (Pub 936) results in the highest deductible home interest, it requires override of values calculated in Turbo Tax.   Option 3. MY CALCULATIONS BASED ON TIMING OF HOME IMPROVEMENT The home improvement costs were incurred in Sep 2025. Ave monthly interest rate =0.693 Time=4 months A=$3800 (1+0.0693/12) e(12x4/12) A=$3,889 Deductible Home Interest =$3889-$3800=$89   I recognize that the amounts are small, but I want to understand the correct calculation method.
