I know about the QMID code. Seems like most manufacturers of electrical panels do not have one yet. The problem I encountered was not receiving the credit for the heat pump I had installed even though I had that QMID code until I went to the enabling page and used the same manufacturer code and then things finally showed up.

While many tax documents arrive by January 31, some brokerages delay consolidated 1099 statements (like 1099-B) until mid-February due to account complexity. If your data isn't ready to import yet, check back in a week or two.   If you are using TurboTax Online, try importing using a different browser. Make sure any VPN or Anvi-Virus is turned off.   See the following TurboTax Help articles for potential fixes: What if I can't import my 1099? How can I fix my 1099 import issue? How do I import my 1099s? How do I enter a large number of stock transactions in TurboTax?

You can use the session method and enter your manually calculated session totals into TurboTax.       Instead of entering every W-2G exactly as written, enter your Total Net Winnings from all "winning sessions" as a single entry. In TurboTax, all W-2G income is entered with Other gambling income (not on a W-2G) and then the losses are entered on the very next screen.     Comprehensive Record-Keeping: You must maintain a precise, contemporaneous diary or similar record of all wins and losses. Supporting Documentation: You must be able to provide tickets, receipts, casino statements, or other proof. Limitation: While this "session" approach can help determine your daily net, overall for the year, you can only deduct losses up to the amount of your total reported gambling winnings, and you must itemize deductions on Schedule A (Form 1040).

Box 12 with code "J" would list the amount of your sick pay that was not included in boxes 1, 3 or 5. So, it may be that the W-2 is not listing your disability pay amount in box 12. However, that would not likely affect your tax since the correct taxable income should be listed in box 1. I suggest you enter the amount of the disability pay in box 12 and see if your tax changes. If not, then you can leave the box 12 entry off of your W-2 entry.

Here's How to Enter a Summary in Lieu of Individual Transactions.   The IRS already has a copy of your 1099-B.  In TurboTax Online, you can drag/drop a PDF copy of your 1099-B into your return.   @PowerBall9999   

  If you're refused for pay with your refund, and have sufficient funds.  It may be because you requested a paper check. Your tax return is processed by an independent bank.   Both the bank and TurboTax charge a fee. We can't get the fee if you get a paper check.

Turbo Tax support, are you listening to all of the comments here?  If I wasn't paying attention, I would have lost thousands of dollars.  I am sure there are people losing thousands who did not catch this bug in your software.  Loss of confidence doesn't even begin to the feeling at the moment.  When will this be fixed?

If you have an existing Credit Karma Money account you need to make sure your TurboTax return and your Credit Karma money account information match (for example, primary filer name, date of birth, and Social Security number).   If you need to update any of this information, here's how: Sign in to your Intuit account. To update your user ID, password, email address, or phone number, select Sign in & security. To update your name, date of birth, address, or occupation, select Profile.

Yes. If it shows a start and ending date, then it is likely that you did file as part year.  Unlike some states that have a specific form for residents, one for non residents and another for part year residents, there is only one main form for PA, whether a resident, Part year, or Non-Resident so the box that you were a part year resident would have been checked if you saw a -to- date.
