Found my complete note on it. The state estimates error was fixed in a Jan 6, 2026 update. I didn't update until Jan 8, 2026. The update didn't fix my existing return BUT if you transfer 2024 again into a new return it works right now. I updated my Windows Desktop Home & Business program and started a NEW return and transferred from 2024 again and my 2024 state estimated payments did NOT go to Schedule A. My first 2025 return still shows all my 2024 state estimates (April, June, Sept & Dec) on Sch A.   UPDATE…..Today 1/8/26 I got an email from TurboTax Support saying to update the program and "Please go through your federal review/smart check portion of your software". So I went through the Review and eventually came to a screen that asked…How much of your 2024 estimated state taxes did you pay in 2025? and it had my total 2024 state estimated payment amount listed. I changed it to zero and it updated my return and schedule A. So you don't have to start a new return and transfer from 2024 again.

The last I saw (which as been quite a while, so it may have changed), you enter the information based on calculating the Standard Mileage Rate and it tells you the amount, then it asks if you want to try to enter Actual Expenses to see if it is better.  Is it not asking that?   For the business percentage, go back through the questions and look for the one that ask if you kept track of personal miles.  Say YES to that question.

It depends. Check your Alabama state forms and see if it is listed there.  Follow the steps that AmyC has listed above to see if the ARA worksheet is listed. If not, revisit your Alabama State entries to see if you  accidentally clicked on a state credit for "Growing Alabama" or "Economic Development."    Because it's a state-specific credit, it won't appear in your federal list of forms but will show in your Alabama forms.   @Donnyreid 

Enter the alimony payment information under the Federal Deductions and Credits and Other Deductions and Credits.   Alimony which may not qualify on the Federal income tax return, may be deducted on the California income tax return.   Alimony on the California income tax return is found on California Schedule CA 540, line 19a.

Each year is looked at individually. The Refund Advance isn't always available to everyone, you have to qualify.    Here are a couple things to check: If you are using a TurboTax partner affiliate link to use the software, the Refund Advance will not be available. If you select the 5 Day Early Refund Delivery, you will not see the Refund Advance option, but you can return to the refund selection page and find all the options listed. See this resource for more information:  Offer details and disclosures for the Refund Advance  program   Refund Advance Eligibility Here are some of the eligibility requirements to qualify for a Refund Advance loan: You’re 18 or older Your expected federal refund amount is $500 or more You’re not a resident of North Carolina, Connecticut, or Illinois You’re e-filing your federal tax return with TurboTax Your physical address is listed on your tax return. Your address must be located in one of the eligible states and can’t be a PO box or prison address You’re not filing one of these tax forms: 1310, 4852, 4684, 4868, 1040SS, 1040PR, 1040X, 8888, or 8862 You aren’t filing on behalf of a deceased taxpayer You must report income on a Form W-2, 1099-R, or Sched C You must open or have an existing Credit Karma Money™ checking account

If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return. Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.
