Did you ever get a 1099-R for the FERS contribution refund? I’m in a similar boat. I got a 1099-R but it only shows my taxable interest in Box 1 as the gross distribution. It makes no mention of the refund of my actual contributions. I find that confusing.

@jcollinsfred    In the Additional property taxes field...the one that won't let you edit it. ...is there already a $0 showing there  (or a $0.00)? or is it blank? _______________________ If it has a $0  (or $0.00) in it...then there is likely a "Supporting Documents" worksheet attached to the field. To access it in that case, try a double-click on the $0 to bring up that worksheet. ..............if double-click doesn't work, click on the field, then go up to the top "Edit " menu item add click on "Add Supporting Details".  from the dropdown list That should bring up the worksheet....then either use the worksheet to add your $$...or click on the big red X to delete the worksheet entirely, and the normal entry in the interview will be restored (and you won't be annoyed with it next year)

Turbotax business has this glitch and I believe they need to fix it.  New assets that are added to rental property are not being transferred to the balance sheet.   When will this be fixed?  We should be able to expect that the product works and it does not.  Tracking this issue down has cost me some serious time.

When experiencing this issue we recommend double-checking that the correct two-letter state code was entered. Zip Code Invalid for Efiling.    If this doesn't resolve the issue can you try deleting an re-entering the information? And as a last resort, uploading the 1098 into the system?   How to delete a form   Let us know if you are still having issues after these steps. 

You have not mentioned which state.  There are states that are not yet accepting e-files.   And....it usually takes a day or two after the IRS accepts your federal return before the state accepts your return, so keep watching your emails. When you e-file your return you will get two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say your return has been transmitted; the second one will tell you the IRS has accepted  or rejected your federal e-file.  If you filed a state return, there will be a third email (usually a day or two later) that tells you if the state e-file was accepted or rejected.   Check your e-file status:   https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/  

TurboTax will generate Form 7203 for an S corporation shareholder that: is deducting an S-Corp loss (including a prior year loss disallowed due to basis limitations) received a non-dividend distribution from an S-Corp disposed of S-Corp stock (regardless of whether a gain was recognized) received a loan repayment from an S-Corp If any of these situations apply to the shareholder, TurboTax will create Form 7203.    Otherwise, you can manually generate Form 7203 in TurboTax Business using Forms Mode:    Open your S-Corp return and click the Forms icon on your top right menu bar. Choose the Open Form icon and enter 7203 to bring up the form. Click on the form name when it appears, then click Open Form.  In the pop-up window, check the box for Create a new copy and click Next.  Choose the K-1 to which this 7203 applies and click Finish.
