HOW CAN I DOWNGRADE TO A LOWER VERSION https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/change-service-level/downgrade-lower-priced-version-turbotax-online/L2IDaMvkt_US_en_US?uid=m6ilzady     WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY?  I WANT THE FREE EDITION   The information that you can enter in Free Edition is pretty limited now.  Thanks to the tax laws that began for 2018 returns, there are no more simple Form 1040EZ or 1040A's.  Everything goes on a Form 1040 that has three extra "schedules" with it, and if you need any of those schedules, you are not able to use the Free Edition.  Using the standard deduction instead of itemizing does NOT mean you will not need any of those schedules.   If you started in the Free Edition and entered any data that required any extra forms or schedules, you have to upgrade to a paid version and if you are watching the screens carefully you are alerted to the upgrade.       TurboTax Online: Important Details about Filing Simple Form 1040 Returns If you have a simple Form 1040 return only (no forms or schedules except as needed to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit, Child Tax Credit or student loan interest), you can file for free yourself with TurboTax Free Edition, or you can file with TurboTax Live Assisted Basic at the listed price. Roughly 37% of taxpayers are eligible. Examples of situations included in a simple Form 1040 return (assuming no added tax complexity): W-2 income Interest, dividends or original issue discounts (1099-INT/1099-DIV/1099-OID) that don’t require filing a Schedule B IRS standard deduction Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) Child Tax Credit (CTC) Student loan interest deduction Taxable qualified retirement plan distributions   Examples of situations not included in a simple Form 1040 return: Itemized deductions claimed on Schedule A, like charitable contributions, medical expenses, mortgage interest and state and local tax deductions Unemployment income reported on a 1099-G Business or 1099-NEC income (often reported by those who are self-employed, gig workers or freelancers) Stock sales (including crypto investments) Income from rental property or property sales Credits, deductions and income reported on other forms or schedules        How can I see my TurboTax  fees?  https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/intuit-account-billing/review-fees-turbotax-online/L1XnIzgzg_US_en_US?uid=m682vq7k   If your TurboTax fees are higher than expected, you can reduce them by removing add-ons     (BEFORE you e-file) :   Remove Premium Services Remove MAX Defend & Restore Remove a state Remove PLUS Help & Support Remove Pay With Your Refund     Or—-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site   https://apps.irs.gov/app/freeFile/

Apparently, this has been a known issue for weeks. I've used Turbotax for many years and never seen anything like this.   I'm trying out FreeTaxUSA. So far it is pretty nice. If it gets past this issue with room and board payed via 529, I think I'll just move to that from now on.     

Not sure what you mean by "not calculating" your AGI.    If you are trying to e-file 2025 you need to look at your 2024 Form1040 (your tax return) and find your 2024 AGI on line 11 of the form.   That is what you need in order to e-file 2025.   Do you need to find your 2024 tax return Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery    

Texas doesn't have a state income tax.   If you are referring to a dropdown menu, that's why it may not show TX or other states with no state income tax.    What exactly are you trying to enter?  What form or topic?

I spent an hour on phone day before yesterday with a nice gal at TurboTax. She attempted to help me but was at a loss. Wasn't until I found the suggestion on here yesterday about allowing TurboTax to access my data by changing my browser setting that I fixed the problem. I also made Chrome my default browser while doing my taxes. Don't know if that helped?

What section are you in?   When you start TurboTax, you will enter your resident state and then TurboTax will ask you if you lived or worked in any other states.     Can you provide more details (what state, what section, or form, etc.) as to where you see this box

Deductions and credits section of the program is the right area.. You may need to select see more or click an arrow to see more rather than just scroll. Somewhere on the deductions page you have the ability to see more than what is listed. You want the category Estimates and Other Taxes Paid. Locate Estimates. @willietom3804
