We can tell you another way to try to view/print if it has been accepted and is no longer in pending status.

If your mom has already claimed you as a dependent on her return, your return will be rejected if you didn't indicate that you can be claimed as someone else’s dependent.    To correct this, go back into your Personal Info section and mark that you can be claimed on another taxpayer’s return, then resubmit your return.   Once that box is correctly selected, the rejection issue should be resolved.

Just check Schedule D.       @user17717838145 wrote:  the K-1 issued to each beneficiary states the same $2,352 as to be directed to each 6 of us. As for "carrying forward", this is the final filing as she passed away in 2024 & the trust was closed... Did you enter the figures on your K-11 correctly and indicate this is the final K-1?   Also, the carryforward is in reference to your individual income tax return, not the trust.   Finally, the $2,352 capital loss should be able to be used to offset your other income, regardless of type, if you have no capital gains (you're allowed up to $3,000 after offsetting capital gains).

Did it show taxable on your federal return - MA treats IRA distributions similarly to the IRS.  A Roth distribution is non-taxable in MA only if   You are over 59.5 years of age and The account has been open for 5 years If both of those are true, go back and check your 1099-R entry in the federal section and let us know what code(s) is in Box 7.

If your W-2 lacks Box 14, you may still claim the 2025 tax-free overtime deduction in TurboTax Online. Your employer may have reported your qualified overtime on some other document such as a separate statement or the last paystub received in 2025.   After entering your W-2, select Overtime at the screen Let's check for other situations.     You will be prompted to manually enter your overtime premium.     Here is an example of qualified overtime.  If the employee’s regular rate of pay is $20 per hour and the employee worked one hour of overtime, the employee’s overtime pay would be $30 ($20 x 1.5).  The employee’s qualified overtime would be $10 ($30 overtime pay less $20 regular pay).     Then you will see the screen Were you an exempt employee?  You will need to declare whether you earned the overtime pay as an employee:    exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act or  non-exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act.   You must select I was not an exempt employee to qualify for the deduction.    For the qualified overtime deduction:     Maximum annual deduction is $12,500 ($25,000 for joint filers). Deduction phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $150,000 ($300,000 for joint filers). The deduction reduces federal income tax liability, it does not exempt overtime pay from Social Security and Medicare taxes.  Employees will still owe these taxes on their overtime earnings. Taxpayers filing as married filing separately are not eligible for the deduction. The deduction is available for both itemizing and non-itemizing taxpayers. The deduction is reported on line 13b of the IRS form 1040 and line 21 of the IRS Schedule 1-A. See also this TurboTax Help.
