Thanks for the suggestions. I figured out two things. First, TurboTax doesn't show state withholdings in the summary even though they are deductible. I consider this a problem that could easily be rectified. Second, because of the SALT income limits, SALT deductions may be reduced, but in my opinion should still be shown with a corresponding explanation for the reduction. Also, you mentioned reviewing Schedule A. This is a good suggestion except that TurboTax makes it extremely difficult to see actual forms until you print. Previous versions were better and had a view forms option. Thanks again for your help.

13th was never a guaranteed date so why expect it here at 6am after all this date hedging - latest update in other threads has been "We are hoping by this weekend, if not before. We don't have a specific date." (but don't bank on "before" either) for other forms delays this year due to the IRS/OBBB changes usually the s/w push has been on a 1-2 day lag from the date given, and online has been updated more quickly than desktop. Hopefully they wrap this up today and get the s/w update out over the weekend, we'll see. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-depreciation-and-amortization-i-m-not-adding-anything-new-federal-doesn-t-indicate-to-wait/01/3773391#M1402067

That may be the best answer TurboTax can give but that's not an answer as to why other tax preparing software is still compatible with Win 10 and why I was not notified, after so many years, that I wouldn't be able to use the desktop version. I really think a refund of my purchase price should be given so I can buy a product that is intuitive and user friendly for my Win 10 desktop. I'm still really upset!!

Thank you for your response. But, my box 1 (gross amount) and box 2 (taxable amount) have different numbers in them (and have for every year that we got SS). Doesn't that mean I should answer "NO" to the question about paying tax on the total amount? DG

The IRS has already released form 4562 for Schedule E and my friend has already been able to file her taxes so I do not understand why Turbo Tax does not have the form ready for us to file our taxes. As per google, turbotax will not have this form available for Schedule E until after February 13, 2026 - which is a large window. Are there any updates on when this form is going to be available so I can file my taxes?

+1 on the same issue In my case - I took the distribution from 529 to my account and paid the college fees of my daughter. 1099-Q has me as the recipient. What is the solution to this problem ? Both online version and the TT Delux Desktop have the same problem.

Feb 13 is here, and it doesn't work. This is truly shoddy work - it's tax filing season and I am paying for fully functional tax filing software, not some half baked guesswork.

@user17709788658 Yep...return to the initial question, and do as @DoninGA has indicated. A couple of us had asked a Moderator to look into having the sentence changed to include box 2a in that YES statement...just as it did last year, but no action has been taken by the software folks yet. If you did attempt to enter some $$ into either the General or Simplified calc methods, you might have to delete the 1099-R form entirely, and start over.

Hello, Fellow Tax Filing Fanatics! Two topics. (1) From what I have been reading, it looks like today is "E Day" when TT will release its long-awaited update to Schedule E and related rental form(s) - as mentioned in my first post, we sold our rental in 2025, so this overdue update is giving me ulcers. Appreciated the TT note stating that recent IRS changes and a reduced IRS workforce have slowed TT down this year. (2) Second topic - I am experiencing a minor, but annoying, glitch (technical term!) with the step-by-step option - in the Charitable/Charity section, in the 2025 column next to 2024, it says 'available now' versus the total amount. In forms view, everything is correct. In the 30+ years I have used TT, I have never had this series of problems this late in time. I just hope that TT corrects this too. Glitches are not reassuring. Thank you, Mark

Anyway around the hardcoded date to download my 1099-B? Each year TT Desktop hard codes a date that I can import my 1099-B. It's always ready early, but TT will not let me import until the future date.

I submitted both Federal and State tax electronically, which later on got rejected for some reason. I wanted to fix the issue and resubmit but came to know that the file is not there. I made sure to hit save button before closing. At this point I do not know how to retrieve and fix the errors. I paid $25 to submit state efile and not sure what would happen to it, if I chose to resubmit returns via mail this time.

Go back and edit your Form 1099-R. After completing the entry of the 1099-R there are a series of screens.
On the screen Annuity information you are asked For the years you received these distributions, was the total amount shown in the form the amount you paid tax on?
If you answered NO, the following screen asks about the General Rule or the Simplified method.
Answer YES to question so you will not be required to select either the General Rule or the Simplified method.
