I had similar trouble. I've used turbotax for 10 years. Lots of trouble this year. On Review of my Federal Return there was a problem I could not fix. It was late and there was no one to help me. The site would not let me e-file with the problem so I had to print the returns for mailing in. Pretty dissapointed with this result.

I don't think anyone answered the OP question. I am using the 2022 software and at the end its asking for a date that it was done done it wont let me put in 04/15/2025. The latest is 12/21/2023.   I printed them and am going to manually amend the date and initialize it..  Any thoughts?

I am using a different computer this year.  I sent a pdf file of 2023 to myself.  I thought I had imported the info to my new return, but it is not showing up.  I am not using the online version. Is it still possible to import?   You said:  "I sent a pdf file of 2023 to myself"   Does that mean you emailed it?   If so, be aware that it is not secure to email tax files--PDFs or tax data files.  Those files are too sensitive for ordinary email.  They have banking information, SSN, all sorts of things.    You can use a thumb drive or writeable CD to move the tax data file to your new computer.   I presume that by "downloaded 2024 return" you mean you are using the desktop software. You can only transfer prior-year 2023 data at the start of a new return.  You can't transfer-in data into an already-started return.  You'd have to start a new return to transfer-in data.    You need to be transferring in from the *.tax2023 data file.  Using the 2023 PDF is not recommended, and as you experienced, may not work.  Even when a 2023 PDF file works, it's only minimal info that transfers in, such as bio, and a few basic things.
