Thank you for the response, but I believe my original question was misunderstood. To clarify: I did not say that I purchased the past years online. I stated that I do not have the CDs, meaning these were physical (boxed) purchases, and the discs are no longer available. I do have the license/installation keys and the saved .tax files. I am not asking about activation support or whether Intuit “supports” prior years. I am specifically asking for the official download area for prior-year TurboTax Desktop installers, similar to what is available on the TurboTax Canada site. Please review this official TurboTax Canada link before responding further: https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/turbotax-support/en-ca/help-article/download-products/download-cd-download-edition-turbotax/L8NgOJdEs_CA_en_CA Canada clearly provides a download page for prior-year Desktop software when the customer has a valid key but no CD. I am trying to determine whether an equivalent download location exists for TurboTax USA, and if so, where it can be accessed. Again, this question is about where to download prior-year installers, not about: Online purchases Product support windows Activation guarantees PDF backups (which I already have) I would appreciate a response from someone familiar with TurboTax Desktop installer availability or a moderator who can confirm whether such a U.S. download repository exists. Thank you.

Line 6 of Form 1099-R should not be zero since the dividend and any attributable gain or loss were present in the traditional IRA on December 31, 2024.  Be sur to enter this amount when TurboTax asks for your year-end balance in traditional IRAs.  The taxable amount of the conversion of about the same amount as the year-end balance and that will add to your AGI.  See my previous post for the calculation.

Thus...Who Knows what's happening for you....unless (maybe) you are using the "Free" edition now, that doesn't have any itemized deductions.   Deluxe is required for Online users to enter deductions, like charity donations.   (though Free might let you enter some, and just prompt you to upgrade once you reach your particular minimum itemized deduction level). ________________ Guess you could always just start entering each charity from scratch again.   Or come back and look again the first week in Feb.....there are some charity situations that don't seem to be fully working right now...like the noncash donations of "items".

@slattek    There are a number of form entry areas that are no yet ready for user input...like 1099-R forms, but a bunch of others too.   Suggest you wait until 1 Feb to continue.  That will avoid most frustrations with the current software, which is not ready for full use yet.

Thank you. I filled out the 2024- 8606 form to check:  Line1: $7000.00 (My initial contribution to Trad IRA) Line2: $0.00 (no previous year contributions, 2024 was the first year) Line3- $7,000: Conversion 'Yes' Line4- $0.00 Line5: $7000.00 Line6 & 7: $0.00 Line 8: $7000.85 (From 1099-R) Line9: $7000.85 Line10: 1.000 Line11: $7000.85 Line12- $0.00 Line13: $7000.85 Line14: -0.85 Line 15 a-c: $0.00 ------- Lines:16 - 17: $7000.85 Line 18: $0.00   Does this look correct and still need 1040-X? Where to report about $21 interest sitting in Traditional IRA. Document to be signed by spouse? Happy to contact 1-1 if you prefer.        

When will the date on the 1096 forms on the desktop version get updated to 2025?  Please don't ask me why I am not e-filing.  Appreciate some acknowledgement that the date on the 1096 form in the upper right still shows 2024 and needs updating.
