If you received an email saying a form was released but you still do not see it in your TurboTax Desktop software, please be aware that while the form has been finalized, the software updates take a bit longer to be deployed. Full access will be available once the updates are fully integrated into the software. Please check again tomorrow morning. The update goes out tonight.

If the Credit Karma Refund Advance does not appear right after you file, it's basically because the IRS hasn't accepted your return yet. The advance is issued after acceptance, not right away after filing. Keep watching your e-mail for a notification about your return.  After the IRS has accepted your return, wait for 48 hours.    If you already set up a Credit Karma account while filing with Turbo Tax, you can check your tax refunds status through both TurboTax and Credit Karma.  For more details go to the links below: TurboTax refund advance Credit Karma Refund Tracker   

I am using the Desktop version for Mac. Following Bill's instructions I selected Forms from the menu bar along the top of the TurboTax window.  That opened a left sidebar listing all the forms in my return but there is no Delete button at the bottom of the screen or anywhere else on the screen that I can see. What else do you suggest?

FYI - I just deleted and reentered information in the step by step for the clean vehicle credit. It asks you if the credit was transferred to the dealer at the time of purchase to which I answered yes and entered $7500.   In the section on vehicle information, it asks for placed into service date before purchase date. As soon as I enter a placed into service date of 10/21/2025, Turbotax immediately increases my federal taxes by $7500 and I confirmed that this is showing up as repayment of the clean vehicle credit on Schedule 2. The fact that the software is determining I don't qualify for the credit before I even enter a purchase date seems like proof that the problem is use of the placed into service date to determine eligibility.   I've used Turbotax to do my taxes for as long as I can remember but I'm getting extremely frustrated that there doesn't seem to be any way to speak with someone about this issue without paying an additional $50 for expert support. I don't need tax advice, I just need the software I already paid for to work properly so I can file my taxes.

@joyfuljoy2000  We would like to take a deeper dive into this issue to assist you.  In order to do this, it would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file that is experiencing this issue. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions: Go to the black panel on the left side of your program and select Tax Tools.   Then select Tools below Tax Tools. A window will pop up which says Tools Center. On this screen, select Share my file with Agent. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is. Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number. Reply to this thread with your Token number. This will allow us to open a copy of your return without seeing any personal information. Here are the instructions if you are using TurboTax CD/Download:   Click on Online in the top left menu of TurboTax CD/Download for Windows Select 'Send Tax File to Agent' Write down or send an image of your token number then place in this issue. We can then review your exact scenario for a solution. Please also tell us any states included in the return. We will then be able to see exactly what you are seeing and we can determine what exactly is going on in your return and provide you with a resolution.

Where are you getting hung up? Some customers are experiencing issues when trying to file and pay with their refund.  We are investigating this issue.  However, if you would prefer to file now, you can do so by switching to pay your TurboTax fees with a credit card instead of using the pay with my refund option by following these steps.
