After you enter your W-2 you will come to a screen that says "Let's check for uncommon situations." On the screen, check the box for Overtime. TurboTax will then prompt you to enter the information needed to claim the deduction for overtime. The information does not have to come from the W-2.  

Please clarify what form you have. You don't get Form 1099-R for investments. If you sold stock, mutual funds, or other investments you get Form 1099-B. Form 1099-R is for a distribution from a pension, IRA, or other retirement account.  

Got the same issue and have heard that maybe late friday. talked to their support folks and she really wasn't aware there was an issue soooo, her response was to wait until the end of the month.  Others have chimed in since I posted earlier, that it might be fixed friday but who knows.  Can't believe this is taking so long.

not working here either so the 1-21-2026 date has come and gone. Too late in the day to do anything on it. Really frustrating to be held up in things we need to get done. I needed to estimate my taxes to be sure I paid enough in but that is not possible anymore with this product. Last year for me with them after after about 30 years. I'm done. 

Yes, but keep in mind, there are two different pins used during filing, and not everyone needs both.  The IP (Identity Protection) pin is six (6) digits and issued by the IRS to individuals that have been a victim of identity theft or by if it was requested by an individual.   Most people do not have an IP Pin.   If you don't, you can answer NO on the IP pin question and proceed to filing.      If you do have an IP pin - you can only retrieve it from the IRS.  We can't issue IP PINs and you won't find them on your tax paperwork. You can only get IP PINs from the IRS.   The other pin is the Self-Select pin (5 digits) that you create each year when you file.   You can create any 5 digit number to file and only you know this number.   If you are trying to e-file, you need EITHER last year's AGI or last year's Self-Select pin you created to file.   So you don't need both numbers, only one or the other to e-file this year's return.   IRS - retrieve your IP pin    Self-Select pin vs.  IP pin
