Are you in North Carolina?  There is a Bailey Settlement on retirement.   TP means Taxpayer, the primary person listed on your return.  Found this old post explains it https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/retirement/discussion/what-is-bailey-settlement-retirement-benefits-how-do-i-know-my-classification-of-retirement-if-it/00/1924485   

Someone must materially participate.  If there are more than one individual involved in the business and you are a silent partner, then it is not appropriate to file a schedule C using Home & Business.  You have some other kind of business that needs a different kind of return.   If you are the sole owner of the business, but you hand off all activities to a manger and do nothing but collect the profits, you probably need legal and/or tax advice to make sure your business is structured appropriately for that situation.  You are more like a S-corporation where you are the 100% shareholder but someone else literally does all the work and you are completely passive.  But is that really the case?  You don't talk to clients? Hire the workers who do the work?  You don't make calls or do bookkeeping or supervise the manager who directs the business activities?  We would need to know a lot more about the business, and you may need professional guidance. 

You have not asked a clear question.     Here is some information about six-digit IRS IP's.   If you have a 6 digit PIN issued to you by the IRS you need to enter it in order to e-file.  Go to Federal>Other Tax Situations>Other Return Info>Identity Protection PIN and enter the six-digit PIN.       https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/retrieve-your-ip-pin   If that is not enough information, please post a clearly worded complete question---and remember that we cannot see your screen or your tax return.  

What do you mean you don't materially contribute to it?  Do you have other partners?  You might need to file a separate business return for it instead of schedule C.  If you have a Single Member LLC that is not an S corp  it is a disregarded entity and you file it as self employment on schedule.  Putting money into it or withdrawing doesn't matter.  It is all yours in the first place.  

What entity did you pay?  Turbo Tax doesn't send you texts about paying tax due.    I don't think they text  you about paying anything.  Sounds like it was a scam text.  The only thing Turbo Tax would ask you to pay it the online fees.    Or are you on the Advantage Auto renew desktop program?  They might have been having trouble charging your credit card for the 2025 program.  

TurboTax never knows how, when or even if you paid your tax due.    TurboTax only knows if the IRS accepted your e-filed return.   Your online account will always show that you owed tax due if that was the result of the return you prepared using the software.  TurboTax gets no feedback from the IRS after you file.  TT never knows if the IRS received a payment from you.     It sounds like you -- and the CS rep -- both got confused by a marketing email.   Many users have more than one account, and the "old" accounts can trigger reminder emails about filing, paying tax due, etc.   If you know that you filed and paid your tax due, you can ignore those emails.   Check your own bank or credit card statements---that is your proof that you paid the IRS.  And check your online account with the IRS. https://www.irs.gov/payments/your-online-account  

I signed up for DeductibleDuck this morning. Downloaded my ItsDeductible zip files and uploaded all available year’s history in about 10 minutes. Super easy.   Pretty much looks the same. I am glad to support someone making an effort at this - for $30 annually it’s seems like a no brainer. 

@drdively   You just buy the Deluxe program.  2025 has not come out  yet.  Are you on the Advantage Auto renew plan?  It may be too late to change your version.  Or are you asking about downgrading 2024 to Deluxe?  Don't think you can do that.   Using Deluxe is the same as Home & Business.  You just buy and install Deluxe.  You  transfer from 2024 into 2025 the same way that you transferred  2023 into 2024.  You will need to have the tax data file ending in .tax2024 from Home&Business to transfer into 2025.  

@Leogalvan60  He leído tu publicación y la situación es un poco complicada.   Dos problemas aquí --- 1. no está claro cuál formulario 1040 o 1040-X han procesado; parece que es el 1040-X. El problema aquí es que las personas nunca envían ambos juntos.   Generalmente, el IRS al procesar el 1040-X con estado civil MFJ debería indicar que han emitido un ITIN para el cónyuge NRA. Pero aquí no estoy seguro. 2. Dado que envió el pasaporte mexicano junto con el W-7, debería haber recibido una carta confirmando la emisión del ITIN (o rechazando la solicitud) y el pasaporte. Pero no tiene ninguno de los dos. Es posible que todo esté retenido debido al cierre del gobierno federal.    En conclusión, y dado que ha pasado bastante tiempo desde la emisión del reembolso, mi fuerte recomendación sería: (a) visitar su oficina local del IRS y obtener una actualización sobre el estado de la solicitud del ITIN, y (b) si no queda satisfecho con eso, buscar los servicios de un abogado fiscal. Digo esto porque usted quiere recuperar ese pasaporte. Si en el futuro tiene que enviar otro formulario W-7, por favor no envíe el pasaporte original; lleve el pasaporte original y una copia a la oficina local del IRS, haga que certifiquen la copia y envíe la copia, NO el pasaporte original. He usado Google Translate aquí para asegurarme de la gramática. Yo hablo y entiendo español (México). Por favor, disculpa cualquier error. Hay algo más que pueda hacer por Ud?
