Thank you very much, Patricia! That's good to know. I don't know why TurboTax asks about assets and car expenses when you could just enter the number from Box 1 in its previous question.   I'll also skip the Transportation/Travel/Meals/Entertainment and Gifts/Education/Publication and Miscellaneous sections. I'll honestly just keep putting ALL these type of expenses in my future spreadsheets for our tax guy and then they'll just reflect in the K-1.   Thank you again!
File the amended return.   If you get a 12c later, you can fax the 8962 then.

Ok, is there a way I can upload documents in the New York State Department of Taxation website? The representative said there was a way, but I don't know where to do it.

There’s no credit for the excess Social Security when you've already had the maximum Social Security withheld.    However, there is a work-around using Forms Mode in TurboTax Desktop.   Open your return and click the Forms icon in the TurboTax header.  In the list of Forms in My Return on the left, find 1040/1040SR Wks (usually at the top) . Click the form name to open it in the large window.  Scroll down to Schedule 3 Part II and find the Excess Social Security and Tier I RRTA Tax Withheld Smart Worksheet. Enter the total amount of your credit in the box on Line A. This amount will be carried over to Form 1040 Line 32. When you're finished, click Step-by-Step in the header to return to the main screens. @Servant714  @VolvoGirl

The self-certifying has nothing to do with amending returns.  That is just to certify with the payer for future paycheck.   Yes, you can amend prior years to correct your tax returns.  But most likely tax years 2021 and earlier are past the date you can get refunds.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-already-filed/L4VjJ9BA2_US_en_US

Now another tax expert suggested that I file a 1040X that includes the 1095-A and 8962.  And it appears that this amended return can be done online.  Is that not the case?   I did these steps to amend the return. 1.  Went into the return that was filed and accepted 2.  Deleted the 1095-A and 8962 that I added AFTER the return was accepted 3.  Got out of the return and went to Amend 4.  Followed the steps and added back the 1095-A info 5.  And 8962 and a 1040X were generated 6.  1040X shows the additional amount I owe   Should I file this return or wait for the 12C?  I can't find the web page on the TT site but I seem to remember that if you forgot the 8962 it says DON'T file a 1040X, wait for the 12C.  Is that the case or do I file the 1040X?  It looks like ALL the forms would get sent if I e-file.

TurboTax transfers data from your federal return to your state return. Before you begin troubleshooting your state return, go back through your federal return and make sure everything is correct.   After you review your federal return, select the State Taxes tab and review the state section. Pay close attention to the information, especially if you have made changes to your federal return. There might be new sections that need to be completed.    Troubleshooting common federal to state transfer issues

What a poor answer to the question.   I too am having issues with line 25300.   On the desktop version,  when I double-click on 25300 I am taken to a chart in the Losses Worksheet which is wanting me to apply against the pre-1985 value.  ????   My Assessment says nothing about 1985 Losses - just Unused Losses.   IF there are pre-1985 losses to apply - a $2,000 limit applies.  Not sure why Turbotax is going the 1985 route.  Where is Turbotax getting this information?       I tried getting telephone help after hours - big mistake.  Very painful to navigate.   Very poor service.   Hopefully better luck here.   Thanks Charles

If you are married filing separately you only claim your own expenses or your share of the expenses on an itemized return.  Depending on which state you live in, and if it is a community property state, you may need to share the income.  For the years you file married filing separately, you cannot claim the Premium Tax Credit for the insurance through Healthcare.gov

I appreciate the response, but I am already aware of this.  A simple google search already brought this up.  The issue is that I do not have the option available to me at all.  There is no option to add an additional state return.  Attached is the screen shot so you can see what I am looking at.  This issue is only with my business LLC return.  On the personal side, I can see the add state.   I have told  the help experts this online but everyone keeps acting like I am making this up.   There clearly is a glitch I was hoping this effected other and there was some work around or a solution being worked on.  It appears I am screwed at this point and can't get to my worksheets & depreciation schedule for my LLC.  Thank you

Is there an amount on 1040 line 6b or is it 0? What usually happens is the IRS changed some other income on your return.  Like the taxable amount of a 1099R you got or you missed entering some income.  Like if a  1099R got entered on the wrong line 1040 line 4 or 5, the IRS would miss it and think you didn’t report it.   By increasing your other income it made more of your SS taxable.   Or There is a new question this year asking if you lived in a foreign place.  People have been answering it wrong or skipping it.  Go back through the Social Security entries.     You can go back into your tax return but be very careful not to change anything.  Click on Add a State to let you back into your return.  You should see this screen after you enter your Social Security and hit Continue.  What is checked Yes or No?    
Why do you say it's preventing you from efiling? What error or message are you getting?
I submitted an amended return, but had to pay the taxes from the first, wrongly done, return. Will I get a refund? The amount owed on each return was considerably different.  thank you.

There are a lot of calculations that go into what portion of the social security benefits that you received are taxable.  If any portion of the 1099-R was taxable and was entered as non-taxable it would change that pretty dramatically.     The IRS letter should explain the calculation used to change your return and what else was changed on your tax return.  You can check that against your tax return as filed and see if the changes are correct.   @jeannettebiddle3106 
Yes, printing and mailing your 2020 amendment is the best way to go.
