If it is taxing the entire amount and saying you are ineligible for the exclusion, it is likely due to the way you have answered one of the questions. You can go back through the questions and double check your answers.  If you do an all of your answers are correct, you can go to forms mode and look at the home sale worksheet.  Double check to be sure all the answers are correct here.  Then look at line 28 to see if there is a number on that line?  If you are filing separately it should be $250,000.

Once your tax return is accepted, the IRS takes over processing.     For status updates, you can use the IRS tool Where's my Refund?. You can also use the tools TurboTax site tracking tool.   You can contact the IRS for individual returns at 800-829-1040 since it’s been more than 21 days since you e-filed.   Refer to the TurboTax article What if my federal refund is taking longer than 21 days? For more information.

You are confusing two issues, as are the people you are talking to.  I mentioned publication 969, here is a direct quote   You can make contributions to your HSA for 2025 through April 15, 2026. If you fail to be an eligible individual during 2025, you can still make contributions through April 15, 2026, for the months you were an eligible individual.   A person's contribution limit is based on how many months of the year they are enrolled in a qualifying HDHP with no other medical coverage.  Because Medicare is retroactive, this can affect someone's eligibility limit, especially if they enroll in the Spring, meaning their previous year's eligibility is affected.   However, once you have determined what a person's limit is, that money can be contributed any time of the year, and even up to April 15 of the next year.  If a person's goes on Medicare on July 1, so their limit is $4775, it would be allowable to contribute nothing during 2025 and make a lump sum contribution on April 14, 2026.  Just like IRAs and other tax items where there is an annual limit, it does not matter when the contribution is made within the extended tax deadline.  

You need to do each year separately.  Sorry, Online is only for 2025 now. Online for 2024 and prior is closed now so you can not start a new 2024 or prior return or finish one. You have to do each year separately How to prepare a prior year return https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/how-do-i-prepare-a-prior-year-tax-return/00/25984 To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here, https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products You will need Windows 10 or Mac Ventura 13 to install it on.

Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.   Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.   If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds If accepted by the state use this TurboTax support FAQ to check the state tax refund status - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_...   After the tax return has been Accepted by the IRS (meaning only that they received the return) it will be in the Processing mode until the tax refund has been Approved and then an Issue Date will be available on the IRS website.

The qualified business income (QBI) deduction is associated with business income reported on your return. It typically comes from a K-1 Schedule entry, self-employment income or rental income. You must have entered business income on your return so you need to find where it was entered and update that entry to remove the QBI income if is doesn't apply to you.   In the case of self-employment and rental income, after you enter your business or rental income and expenses, TurboTax will ask you if the business qualifies for QBI treatment. If it does not, you would have to change your entry in that section of the program. In the case of a partnership K-1 schedule, you will see the QBI questions in the box 20, code Z entry and then section 199A.    For an S corporation, you will see the questions on that K-1 schedule in box 17, code V, sect 199A. In the case of the K-1 schedules, it would be unwise to change the QBI status reported there, as that would have been made at the entity level.

@ PatriciaV Thank you for passing that info on to tech support. The problem with the PDF version is entries are on the wrong lines.  Seems I both OWE and OVERPAID!  As I will e-file this I'm assuming the formatting of the forms view (which looks correct) will go though.  If not, again I assume, I will get a reject message.  I'll wait a few weeks to see if this gets fixed, if not, a screen shot of the forms view for my records will, sadly, have to suffice. Thanks for your help

In the pop-up window, select Delete a form. Look for Form 8863 (Education Credits) and Form 1098-T. Click Delete next to them.

No, that is not the case. I itemized on Federal and it has automatically has me as standard deductions for state with no way to change to itemized. Based on the MD law, I’m still able to itemize. This is a bug in Turbo Tax Online and from my research was also an issue last year. 

If you used TurboTax Desktop in 2024, your state return is on your computer. Look for a file name ending .tax2024.  The default location is Documents > TurboTax.   If you used TurboTax Online, Sign In to your account and go to My Tax Returns & Documents on the home page.  Your 2024 returns will show, and you can download your state return.   @Mjrmjr
