After you install it on the first computer ( the one you bought the License Code for) you can download it to the other system.   You can download both Windows and Mac with your purchase.   Since you now have to log into an Intuit Account to install it all your downloads and licenses are listed there (even if you bought it from somewhere else) so if you need to download to install it again or install on another computer, even on the other operating system (Windows, Mac).  And the download will always be up to date with all the updates.   See this, at the bottom Common Questions- How to switch from one operating system to the other How to install TurboTax CD/Download software with license code,

I am trying to e-file and here's the thing. All the information is correct. It keeps telling me I need to type my last name in the last name section, I do that, but then it just takes me back to the how you want to file section. I go to the info section and everything is fine. There's nothing to actually fix. It's just not working. I've restarted the program and cleared the cache but still nothing. When I try to file by mail it just doesn't load to that section or give me any options.

If your 2024 return was rejected, the only way to file it now is by mail.    You need to print it, sign and date it in ink, and mail it in.   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 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.  

I'm getting the same error.  Telling me the error will be corrected on 03-06-2026.  From what I've been able to find out, this is purely a TT problem.  You'd think they'd have their act together before e-filing time.    

At the end of the MO return, when you come to the page titled Miscellaneous Missouri Credits, answer YES.   @jabearden   This list contains examples but the Homestead Disaster Credit is included in the miscellaneous options.    On the next screen, select HDC from the dropdown menu.     Homestead Disaster Tax Credit - This credit may be carried forward for a maximum of twenty-nine years.   

You made a few payments that contained both principal and interest, I assume. Any actual interest paid toward your student loan can be included. Keep proof of the amounts paid and how you determined the interest with your tax file. The IRS knows forms are not sent for amount below $600. @runrainyrun 

DID YOU E-FILE?   Did you e-file?   Did you go through all three steps of the FILE section and click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”     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/    What does it say in your account?  Does it show that the return was accepted?   Or does it say something else---like "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?”

Both of you will have to enter Form 1095-A on your tax returns. TurboTax will ask you questions about if the policy was shared with someone and how to allocate the costs and credit.    The percentages that you should enter for your premium, your SLCSP, and your advance payment should be an amount that you and your spouse agree on. It could be 50/50/50 for your premium/ your SLCSP/your advance  or another amount. Make sure you are in agreement and that the percentages on all tax returns add up to 100% together.   TurboTax will calculate the information that should be on your return based on your answers.   Refer to the TurboTax article Where do I enter my 1095-A? for navigation instructions.

If you are referring to a Backdoor Roth, you need to enter the non-deductible contribution in the Deductions and Credits section, see https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/retirement-benefits/enter-backdoor-roth-ira-conversion/L7gGPjKVY_US_en_US   If you don't have a contribution and just doing Roth conversion but not seeing 8606 then go through this section under Deductions and Credits anyway as it will ask about your IRA/Roth situation and confirm basis etc.   Re Form 5498 - if you mean the question to provide the total market value of your IRAs as of 12/31/25, Turbotax suggests you need Form 5498 for that but those are not normally sent out until May.  Per IRS instructions for 8606 Line 6 (see below) you should use your year-end brokerage statements for this.  Note the market value is for all Traditional IRAs (not Roth) if you have multiple accounts not just the account where the conversion was processed, they are all treated as one for basis/tax calculation purposes.   https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i8606.pdf   If that doesn't help please provide more details on your situation and question.

This scenario is indeed quite plausible. My state tax refund was adjusted and subsequently paid in full. However, my federal refund underwent an offset, which duplicated the deduction for the same balance that had already been settled with the state. Consequently, I now face a waiting period exceeding one month to receive the overpayment from the state.
