Yes, you may be eligible if your overtime was paid in "comp time". From the TurboTax article, "No Tax on Overtime Explained: Qualified Overtime Deduction Rules for 2025": The overtime deduction may also be available if you receive “comp time” – that is, paid time off from work – instead of more money when you work more than 40 hours in a week. In that case, your overtime premium is based on the amount you were paid while taking time off.   Example: Greyson’s regular rate of pay is $30 per hour. He receives one and one-half hours of paid time off for each hour worked over 40 during the week. For each hour and a half that Greyson gets off as comp time, he is paid $45 dollars ($30 x 1.5 = $45). If Greyson works extra hours, he can deduct $15 of the $45 he receives for each hour of overtime worked ($30 x 0.5 = $15). You'll want to calculate the premium on the amount earned in 2025, not any used from prior years' income, which would not qualify.   More guidance: IRS - Questions and answers about the new deduction for qualified overtime compensation

Just read another threat where the TT morons are now stating it won’t be ready until Thursday February 19th. I have just about had it with these idiots at TT. Almost 20 years and I’m done after this years debacle. 

I've been advised today by management that the work on the depreciation section of TurboTax is continuing and expected to be completed with an update coming the evening of Thursday, February 19th.

Windows Desktop Premiere Same problem. Spent an hour on the phone with TT Support. No resolution. They are mainly knowledgeable with TT Online and not Desktop. Been using TT for 20+ years but first time I have hit this issue. Hoping for a solution soon. My Schwab PDF files are there, but the TT/Schwab link is broken somehow. Tried with both MS Edge and Chrome.

If you can't upload your wife's 1099-R, you can manually enter the data by following these steps.   Navigate to Federal > Wages & Income > IRA, 401(k), Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R). Select Add/Edit to add a new 1099-R. Choose Change how I enter my form. When asked "How would you like to upload your 1099-R?", select Type it in myself. On the next screen, "Who gave you a 1099-R?", click Financial institution or other provider and then Continue. You can now enter the information for your 1099-R provider and proceed through the remaining interview questions.

Yes, that's when to expect the release of the update.
