Yes, if you saved your tax file to a cloud type drive, then download it to work with it, it can become corrupted.   Check your computer; you should have a backup file in the TurboTax > Documents folder. You can't Amend a return you don't have; if you can't locate a back-up copy, you'll have to start over to prepare a 2023 return, or you can get an IRS Transcript if you filed a 2023 return.    MAX benefits are for help with Audits or identity Protection.  Here's more info on MAX Benefits.   @Palhalwa1

Simply put, that is not a deduction in New Jersey. 
It depends on the type of form your survivor benefits are reported on.  Is it a 1099-MISC?  Please clarify so we can help.   Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss.

Intuit Turbo Tax is very confusing about e-filing state tax.   I completed the Return and elected to mail it in. Later, I decided to e-file. I went through the filing process until I got to the point where I purchased the State e-file option. Once I received the confirmation of my purchase, I assumed my previous selection to e-file would "grab" the State Return and file it.  No such luck. After several days of not receiving notice that my return was accepted/rejected, I logged back into my file and saw the State Return had not been filed. You can do beter.   Gary Jones

@DanaB27    Thank you so much! Information is really helpful.

1. Your mock federal should match your filing status, either MFJ or MFS. 2. Your mortgage interest on the federal being separate is not a problem with the state, either separate or combined. Your mock federal, if itemizing, will go along with this. @lkf1

On a joint return, is it OK for both spouses to have the same PIN, or should they be different?  Turbotax pre-filled in identical numbers for both my wife and me.

This is the second year in a row that we request a call (paying service) and wait for 30 minutes with phone in hand, and they call you, ring one time and they hang up. Like so the call counts for them and then you loose your queue and then need to enter again and wait another 30 to 40 minutes.  This just happened. Last year was the exact same thing.  They should make the support leave you a message or count the time that the call starts. They are doing this on purpose.

I don't see an issue as far as fair rent is concerned, since the tenant was only renting one room, so the rent for that room was probably fair. As far as deducting depreciation and expenses for the whole year, you should just consider the house rented for the number of months it was fully occupied. So you will only deduct depreciation and expenses for a portion of the year.

My mom also had Box E, noncovered securities with no cost basis submitted to the IRS, but the cost basis was on the 1099B I received.  I was afraid I would spend another hour or so trying to pull out the 8 little wash sales and recalculating each group of sales, only to find out I had to send the 1099B because of the 6 sales marked with Box E.  I got the impression I needed to send the 1099B tax statement because I was not able to import from Chase/JP Morgan, I grouped the 400+ sales into 3 entries and the box E issue.  If it was just the wash sales I would have spent the time putting the trades in.  I filed her taxes before I read your reply, and I am headed to the post office tomorrow to mail off her requested forms.  You would have thought the IRS had all the information from Chase.  I am not sure why Chase classified those 6 sales as Box E, they provided me with a cost basis, they managed my moms money.....poorly I might add..... so why didn't they report that cost basis.  Her financial advisor refuses to answer my calls or emails because I withdrew all my inheritance from Chase so I will never know.  Thank you so much for your reply.

IRS accepted my submission back on Sunday, the 6th at 1:30ish.   I am not surprised I have not heard back yet.  I got a used EV in '24 and had to report the $4000 credit the dealer took and I installed a charging station so applied for that credit as well.   BTW, form 8911 is a PITA.  The IRS has to know, by census tract where eligibility is.  But no, there are these notices you have to decipher.  Fortunately a CPA in the community looked up my census tract and worked out that I am eligible.  Now to await IRS agreeing!   So, at this point no news is good news wrt the PIN.  I passed that barrier.   Also, for 8911, as it is by census tract and there are TWO web sites to take your address and report back census tract, one would think this is a direct lookup function.  TT should have been able to fill out all of 8911 for me after I supplied the installation costs and such.

Please clarify your question by providing some additional information so we may better help you. Such as: Are you filing a Tax return for 2024? Did you already file it? Has it already fully processed? Why are you amending your return? Did you live in Tennessee the entire year of 2024? Did you earn money in any other state other than Tennessee in 2024? Did you already file your state tax return? Are you trying to amend your state or federal tax return?
