How did you pay in April?  Was it a payment with an extension that is on 1040 schedule 3 line 10 and goes to 1040 line 31?  Or where did it show up on your return?   Did you send it with a 1040ES slip?  That would be for a quarterly estimated payment for NEXT year 2025.    It may be applied to the wrong year.  You probably should look up your IRS account to see if they got it and where they applied it.     Is the letter for the same amount you already paid?  Or they could have changed your return so you owe more.    

If you have a 1099R the TIN  or Payer ID is typically very close to the payer's name on the tax document.  Are you sure you have a 1099R?   If you have a SSA1099 for Social Security there will not be a TIN.    Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security  (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.  

No one in the user forum has access to your information.   You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.    https://myturbotax.intuit.com/   Start a 2024 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/01/27010     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/save-2021-turbotax-online-return-pdf/L8dHfRkpT_US_en_US?uid=m5y4ch1y   Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery     Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/find-last-year-tax-data-file-tax-file-computer/L0XJvPaJr_US_en_US?uid=m6gufxei     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/data-systems/find-tax-data-file-mac/L4VNGm33S_US_en_US?uid=m6guhab0 You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf       SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

No one in the user forum can see your screen or your tax return.   We do not know why you cannot e-file.   Are you trying to e-file a current year 2024 return?   Or are you trying to e-file a past year return?   Only a 2024 return can be e-filed; past year returns must be filed by mail.

@VolvoGirl Two separate issues. TT 2023 was the one that did not import return from 2022. So i restarted that 2023 just so I could import 2022 data. Mostly wanted to get capgains loss carryforward correct. But it also helped to confirm other minor details. Thanks for your help!

There's a glitch in TurboTax (TT). They're aware of it.  In the meantime, you probably don't really need it.  If your employer put TN in box 15 of your W-2, it's irrelevant as TN doesn't not have an income tax. Just leave boxes 15-20 blank at the W-2 screen in TT.

Only the IRS would know what all is going on with your return, but there are some things you need to investigate before phoning them.   First, you need to be sure the return was successfully filed. It depends on how you chose to file the return.   If you filed a paper return by mail, TurboTax does not mail it for you.  If you chose that method, you would have had to print it, sign it, date it, and mail it yourself.  It takes at least 4 weeks for a mailed return to show up in the IRS WMR tool.     If you efiled, double-check to be sure the return was efiled successfully and accepted.  If you used Online TurboTax, you can sign into your Online Account and check the efile status at the Tax Home.   Which of these words is used there for the status:  accepted, rejected, printed, started, ready to mail, or something else? If that showed it was accepted, (or if you mailed a paper return), you can use the "Where's My Refund" tool at the IRS website below to monitor the status of your Federal refund.   Is there any message there? https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund   Here are some tips when using that IRS tool:   Be sure you enter the correct tax year, SSN, and filing status. Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount.   Do not include any state refund or any total refund or net refund (Fed and State) that TurboTax may have provided on a summary screen.   Look at your actual Federal return to get the Federal refund amount to use in the tool, i.e., your Form 1040, Line 35a.

In public traded partnerships -k1 entities, does pass losses or carry over losses be offset income ONLY from same entity?   ET is one pubic traded partnership but has other partnership within its umbrella. All other partnerships within ET k1 are separate entities?   I  sold my ET (all of them). Question I am trying to understand, does all passive loss across all ET entities has to combined or only passive loss be offset by income from same entity (same FEIN)?
