We at Intuit TurboTax want our users to be completely delighted with their experience using our products and services, and successful in their financial lives and businesses.    Once you file your return, as long as the settings to receive communication from Intuit don’t block it, you will see a pop-up message or receive an email with a survey asking you about your experience. We encourage you to leave your notes and comments there. “Voice of the Customer” notes and comments are read and acted upon.   If you are using TurboTax Desktop, you can also leave feedback at the Final Steps tab:   @caliraftdude

It seems you have a retirement plan at work and your income is above the MAGI therefore the deduction of the Traditional IRA contribution is limited for you. But your MAGI isn't above the limit for your spouse to make a deductible Traditional IRA contribution.    Please see IRA deduction if you are covered by a retirement plan at work for your MAGI limit and IRA deduction if you are not covered by a retirement plan at work for your spouse.

Do you mean an extension for a 2023 tax return?     You file it by mail.  E-filing is permanently closed for past year returns, but you can still print, sign and date it in ink, and mail it in.   When you requested your extension you were supposed to pay your estimated tax due.  Did you enter the payment you made into your tax return?  Go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Estimates and Other Taxes Paid>Other Income Taxes       You will be able to access the 2023 return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it.   But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.       Start a 2024  return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.   Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2023 returns is now permanently closed.    Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2023 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac  (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/printers-printing/finish-prior-year-return-started-turbotax-online/L9Oe4M90A_US_en_US?uid=m68tffpe   If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.   They are available from 5 a.m. to 9p.m. Pacific time daily   https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1899263-what-is-the-turbotax-phone-number     If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.     When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.   Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.  

To go back to a lower version or the Free Edition you can try to clear and start over https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/how-do-i-clear-and-start-over-in-turbotax-online/00/26444 If you started your tax return in TurboTax Free Edition (Form 1040 with limited credits; roughly 37% of taxpayers qualify), you won't need to clear and start over. You can select Switch to Free Edition instead.

You can file your extension at our Easy Extension website.   You have to enter name, address, and SSNs and then your estimates.   You can skip past the TurboTax payment screen and choose to pay your tax bill at the IRS website.   TurboTax will e-file your extension.

  It sounds like you're having trouble entering your foreign address in TurboTax. Here are some steps you can try:   You can file federal (IRS) returns if you or your employer has a non-US address.   Select Foreign Country: In TurboTax Online, go to the section where you enter your mailing address. Look for a drop-down menu labeled "Type of mailing address" and select "Foreign country." This should open additional fields for you to enter your province, postal code, and country    However, there are some restrictions regarding foreign-address returns: IRS regulations require a US bank account to receive your tax refund, and you'll need a US bank account (or credit/debit card with a US billing address) if paying additional federal taxes owed. Like many stateside merchants, we require a US billing address to pay for TurboTax if using a credit or debit card. If you're deducting fees from your refund with the optional Pay With My Refund service, you'll need a US or APO/FPO/DPO address. Reach back out if you meant something else.   TurboTax Community Post
