@mmeshell2013    1)  You must have a dependent before you can file HOH.   TTX software would normally have given you HOH if an eligible  dependent was entered in the My Info area. ____________________ Anyhow 2) Yes...you must have accepted for Federal at least......if Fed rejects, then State is not even sent out. 3)........IF Fed rejects, then you do not Amend, you just edit your file to include whatever is needed , and re-submit. 4)  IF Fed Accepts, then State should too....BUT, you must wait for your Original Refund, or Pay your Original Balance due, before you can amend.  An Accepted Original filing cannot be stopped by a later amended tax return. 5) Even if you do end up Amending, you cannot even send in an Amended tax return until AFTER 19 February

If your overtime is listed in Box 14 of your W-2, select "Other" for Box 14 and continue to the "Let's check for uncommon situations" screen. Select Overtime on that screen and continue to enter the overtime amount.    The overtime amount is the overtime premium. In other words, if you earn 20/hr, and your overtime  pays 30/hr, only 10/hour is overtime,

If you chose NO your first time in the interview, here's How to Delete Forms in TurboTax Online.   If you're using TurboTax Desktop, go to FORMS at the upper right to find the form and delete it.   If you first checked YES then went back and changed to NO, clear your Cache and Cookies and step through the interview again.   Be sure that no one on your return is enrolled in a marketplace plan, or that they are on someone else's marketplace plan.   @rosevillegirl   

If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return. Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS. See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a current year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-federal-tax-return-current-year/L7eS6o1qh_US_en_US?uid=lfunevhk   See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a state tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/need-amend-state-return/L3hGFyaPp_US_en_US?uid=lxxu6xbn

Please note that this tax advantage for overtime is a deduction, not a credit.   The deduction appears on form 1-A (1040), which is a new form added to form 1040. Please see a sample form on the IRS website.   The deduction will appear in Part III.   The sum of all the deductions on form 1-A (including the overtime benefit) will flow to line 13b on form 1040.

Please use this link to get updated information on the availability of Forms in TurboTax - TurboTax Form Availability .  A form related to IRA distributions - Form 5329 - is currently showing January 28th as being available.  If using TurboTax Desktop, be sure to run product updates to ensure that your software is running the most current version of TurboTax.

Estimated payments are extra payments that you made above your withholdings. You make estimated tax payments on the IRS website or mail them in. You need to show proof of each payment made to the IRS. Your bank accounts should show the payments made to the IRS (or state department asking for them). If you have a business, you may have made payments under your business name. Mike above is correct, you should have records of whatever extra payments you made to the IRS.

Thanks for the reply. I just did updated my TurboTax desktop software so that my reply would be based on current software. I see no change in my problem. I also went to the due date link you attached, and found that Schedule SB is ready for efile now. So it should have the 2025 SB change I need implemented.    In answer to your question I have no entries on Lines 12 thru 15, and no reason to have those entries. I had already read those rules before submitting my initial question. And I am not trying to print it, will efile. So, two questions please .. 1. Is there anyway  to submit a written question to TurboTax to ask if they've done this new 2025 Wisconsin tax programming? I'm shocked that they don't have any obvious way to submit an apparent "bug" so they can correct it quickly. 2. This is a very large deduction, so I don't want to miss it if TurboTax is no help. Is it permissible/possible to enter the $48,000 directly onto Schedule SB myself, and take responsibility for it?   Thanks again
