The fees are determined by the product edition used.  We can't see your fees in the forum, so we have to guess.  Did you use the Deluxe or the Premium version?   The Deluxe version is $79 for a Federal return, and each state return would be $64. The Premium version is $139 for a Federal  return, and $64 for each state.   You may be able to see your fees this way.   Go to the Tax Home and scroll down to "Your Tax Returns & Documents."   See if there is a link "View order details" somewhere in or near that section.   If you ended up in Premium when you really only needed Deluxe, or if you could have used Free Edition, have you already paid?  If you haven't paid, you may be able to downgrade if there's nothing in your return that requires Deluxe or Premium.    Here are the topics that can and cannot be prepared in Free Edition, and which would require an upgrade to Deluxe or higher:   FAQ:  Why do I have to upgrade from Free Edition? https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/change-service-level/upgrade-free-editio...

If you used Online TurboTax, please confirm the exact wording you are seeing at the Tax Home of your Online TurboTax account.  Does it indeed use the word "pending", or does it say one of these terms:  accepted, rejected, printed, started, or ready to mail?

@rainr8560  asked:  "My taxes are asking for a verification code that’s supposed to be sent in the mail, but I haven’t got one. What do I do?"   Have you already filed your return and got an efile rejection notice, or are you still in preparation and encountering an issue when you try to efile?   It's not clear which code you are talking about.   Here are a couple of possibilities.  Is either one your issue?   Since you said "in the mail", did you mean postal mail?   If so, were you referring to a 6-digit IP PIN (Identity Protection PIN) that the IRS requires for certain victims of ID theft or to those who opt-in voluntarily to the program?  If you are supposed to use an IP PIN, we can tell you how to retrieve it at the IRS website.   Or are you referring to a 6-digit email verification code that some people have to enter when efiling to verify their email address?    If so, that comes in email, not postal mail.   If that's the issue, and if you are not getting it in your email, we can offer some suggestions.   We can tell you more when we fully understand your issue.   

the 8995 doesn't go with your corporate return. It's only filed by individuals, estates and trusts. What the S-Corp provides its shareholders on line 17 of their K-1s is QBI income, W-2 wages, and unadjusted basis (of depreciable property) immediately after acquisition (UBIA). An S-Corp may not have the third item, but it would be unusual for there to be no wages.    what the IRS may do is match the K-1 info to the info the eligible taxpayer enters on their 8995      you have nothing to amend.

I had three tax returns to complete. I was able to do it by having two different login IDs with the same email, then, for the third return, I used one of the previous login IDs with a different email address. I prefer to use the desktop version but my "old" desktop does not support Windows 11 and I didn't want to buy a new desktop just to do my taxes.
