can't tell you or even estimate your taxes since we don't know your tax basis and depreciation taken. in addition, there are other things we would need to know. you can search the web for tax calculators for 2025, but I doubt any have incorporated all the tax law changes made.   

if the LLC filed form 8832 it would be taxed as a C corporation which would require filing form 1120. if it filed form 2553, once approved, it would be taxed as an S-corporation and file form 1120-S. it is not necessary, if S-corp status is desired to file form 8832. if neither form was filed it is taxed as a partnership filing form 1065.  

A multi-member LLC is treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. That means that the LLC has to file it's own Form 1065 partnership tax return, separate from your personal Form 1040 tax return. The partnership return will include a Schedule K-1 for each partner. You have to enter the information from your Schedule K-1 in your personal tax return, so the Form 1065 partnership return for the LLC has to be completed before you can file your personal Form 1040 tax return. Your share of the income from the LLC will be included in your personal tax return when you enter your Schedule K-1. Are you the person who is responsible for filing the return for the LLC, or do you just have to file your own personal return? To prepare the Form 1065 partnership return for the LLC you have to use TurboTax Business (which is not the same as TurboTax Home & Business). TurboTax Business is available only as download software that you install on your Windows computer. The filing deadline for partnership returns is March 15, not April 15, and late-filing penalties are high. If the LLC has not yet filed its 2024 tax return, it should be filed as soon as possible to avoid even higher penalties. To prepare your personal Form 1040 tax return you need one of the personal TurboTax editions. You can use TurboTax Online Premium, or any edition of the TurboTax download software. TurboTax Business cannot prepare your personal Form 1040 tax return, and none of the personal editions of TurboTax can prepare a Form 1065 partnership return.

NOTE: Before running the account recovery tool below, log out of all Intuit accounts including this user forum, or you might end up in a loop.  Then clear your browser Internet cache, close your browser, then reopen it, and go to the link below.  You may wish to copy this link so you can paste it into the new browser session. https://myturbotax.intuit.com/account-recovery If still no luck after running that on your phone number you can still access and email address(es) that you can access,  here's another method:          Go back to the tool again, but this time leave the data field blank, scroll down a bit, then choose the small blue link that says "Try something else", and it will look you up by other parameters.   Other options include requesting a copy of the 2019 return from the IRS (costs $30) or getting an IRS return transcript for free.    However, transcripts in the online IRS account only go back 5 years, so an older transcript would have to be ordered to come in the mail (transcripts can be ordered at IRS website at https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript or with Form 4506-T ).  An actual copy of a tax return can be ordered using Form 4506.  https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-4506

What type of organization is your business: a sole proprietorship, qualified joint venture, single-member LLC, multi-member LLC, partnership, S corp, or C corp? If you are married, is your spouse involved in the business in any way? If so, what is your spouse's involvement, and what state do you live in?  

Yep, I'm in the correct account, all the other data I input is there  (I hope/believe, but I really cant trust TT it seems so will need to double check everything ). In fact these nine 1099-B seem to be there too, except that they are blank. I see the nine entries I input but all the data is blank.
