When you have a loss on a Schedule C, the loss isn't deductible unless you have checked a box on the form to indicate that your investment is at risk.  Go back through the questions for your business and make sure you have checked the box, or answered the question yes, to indicate that All Investment is at Risk.  Once checked, your loss will then flow to your Form 1040 and offset other income.

Please see Error 1603 for additional steps that might help resolve this issue.  There are additional troubleshooting steps included in this link that relate directly to Microsoft and Windows.   @Millannacellrose

Thank you @MarilynG1 .   I have no 1099-SA for this tax year as I didn’t take a distribution from my HSA but I did include medical expenses on NJ only that I plan to take a distribution in a future year.  Hope this was allowed. In the year that I take the HSA distribution for these expenses, I will get a 1099-SA and report as you have described.

It's impossible to tell without seeing your return, but it does take a few moments sometimes for the refund meter to react to something you entered into it. Do you have an underpayment penalty?   You can preview your tax return to make sure everything is accurate. You can do this by following the instructions below.   Try previewing your actual return as it is a more accurate reflection of your refund amount or tax-due amount.    You can get to your tax return in TurboTax desktop as follows: Switch to Forms Mode, and then  (see screenshots below for additional guidance) Scroll through your forms in the left panel and  Click on the form you want to preview (Example Form 1040)   You can get to your Tax Return in TurboTax Online as follows:  Go to "Tax Tools" in your left panel, Select "Tools" and then  Select "View Tax Summary" and  Select "Preview Form 1040"   Click here for "How do I update and print a new W-4?"   Click here for "Why do I owe taxes?"   Click here for "Video: Why Would I Owe Federal Taxes?

If you are referring to the personal income tax return for WI line 13 is for the total of certain federal itemized deductions exceeds your Wisconsin standard deduction, you may be able to claim the itemized deduction credit.  If you did not itemize or if it is lower than the Wisconsin standard deduction the amount would be $0.

If you want to calculate cost of goods sold using inventory, in TurboTax Home & Business, enter your beginning and ending inventory using these steps:   Click the Business tab Click Business Income and Expenses at the top Click I'll choose what I work on The screen "Let's gather your business info" appears. Click Start or Update next to Profit or Loss from Business Click Edit next to the name of your business Click Start or Update next to Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold Click Yes for Do you have inventory to report? Click Yes for Cost method or check the box for another valuation method The next screen is where you enter your inventory. See screenshot below:     If you are not using inventory, you would just enter the cost items as expenses.    

f4562 is Depreciation and Amoritization.  Its located in the menu just under Schedule E. line 11 is the Business Income Limitation. While in 'Forms' and not 'Step-by-Step', if you mouse click on this line, then click the magnifying glass that pops up, then the worksheet that feeds this line opens up. That worksheet is called Depr Options.  Line 3 of that worksheet has the business income, or should have.  My point being that TurboTax incorrectly excludes business rental income on this line.

I'm in the same situation! I don't owe any money in back taxes, child support, etc. and I got $0. It even said in Turbo Tax something to the effect of this doesn't happen often then told me I get $0 back. The odds of me getting the exact amount as what I paid during the year to the penny seems odd. Good thing I didn't hire someone to do my taxes since I'd then be out that amount. Now since I chose to pay gor e-filing with my refund amount do I have to pay for that $25?
