If you have no income entered on the tax return, no taxes owed on the tax return and no tax refund on the tax return, it cannot be e-filed. There is no reason for you to file a tax return under these circumstances.

  You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.    https://myturbotax.intuit.com/   Start a 2025 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/01/27010     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/save-2021-turbotax-online-return-pdf/L8dHfRkpT_US_en_US?uid=m5y4ch1y   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     Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/find-last-year-tax-data-file-tax-file-computer/L0XJvPaJr_US_en_US   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/data-systems/find-tax-data-file-mac/L4VNGm33S_US_en_US?uid=m6guhab0   You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf       SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

Some customers are experiencing issues when trying to file and receive a saying the 2025 transmissions are not available yet.  We are currently investigating this issue. We will notify you once the program is updated.

The number you enter in box 14 will not typically have a direct impact on your tax return, so you can use the "other" option as mentioned by @DoninGA . Also, you may want to ask your employer what the entry is for, as you may find a reference to it elsewhere in the program. So, it may be helpful to know what is being reported there.

I'm glad to hear that will be a replacement coming.  Unfortunately, this is too late for me.  I've purchased H&R Block tax software and Deductible Duck as the ItsDeductible alternative.  I'm just really disappointed that TurboTax killed ItsDeductible and then basically ignored all its customers for so long

Thanks for the idea, but that did not fix it. I did have popups blocked, so I undid that, and the problem persists. More info about my situation from another thread on here about importing: TurboTax 2025 Deluxe, Windows 11, Edge, all fully updated In Edge, 3rd party cookies enabled, popups not blocked. I've been using TurboTax for about 40 years. This year's taxes are about the same as last year's. Never had problems importing before.   Trying to import 1099-DIV from Vanguard (Brokerage) Vanguard does a Consolidated 1099 form, so this usually gets all 1099s, not just DIV. That opens a tab in my default browser, with 3rd party cookies accepted, no ad blocking, no virus software. I entered the Vanguard account number and document ID from the Vanguard PDF I downloaded from Vanguard. It confirms I am human and then the web page says, "Connection complete! Success! We got your tax data. You can now return to TurboTax."   So, then I go back to TurboTax, and nothing has changed. I can close, restart, etc. and the data did not come.   But a clear question for you, which might help ... when you had the popups blocked, did TTax tell you it failed, tell you nothing, or did it tell you it succeeded, even when it did not?

There appears to have been an issue with the Online product recently where in some cases, taxpayers were not seeing the "Let's enter [your name] HSA contributions" screen, which is a required screen since finding out your HSA contributions is a major reason for the HSA interview. You can enter your personal contributions made directly to your HSA administrator on the second line of this screen.   I recommend that you do an HSA Reset to remove all your HSA data, so that you can start over afresh, and avoid the mysterious situation that has you unable to see this screen.   Just remove all HSA data as shown below.    HSA RESET ***Reset***   1. make a copy of your W-2(s) (if you don't have the paper copies) 2. delete your W-2(s) (use the garbage can icon next to the W-2(s) on the Income screen)   *** Desktop/Windows***   3. go to View (at the top), choose Forms, and select the desired form (1099-SA (if one), 8889-T, and 8889-S (if one)). Note the Delete Form button at the bottom of the screen.   *** Online ***   3. go to Tax Tools (on the left), and navigate to Tools->Delete a form  4. delete form(s) 1099-SA (if one), 8889-T, and 8889-S (if one)   5. go back and re-add your W-2(s), preferably adding them manually 6. go back and redo the entire HSA interview....  

Dependent information is entered in MY INFO.   If your dependent is a full-time college student under the age of 24 the income does not change your ability to claim her.     WHO CAN I CLAIM AS A DEPENDENT?   You can claim a child, relative, friend, or fiancé (etc.) as a dependent on your 2025 taxes as long as they meet the following requirements: Qualifying child They're related to you. They aren't claimed as a dependent by someone else. They're a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident. They aren’t filing a joint return with their spouse. They're under the age of 19 (or 24 for full-time students). No age limit for permanently and totally disabled children. They lived with you for more than half the year (exceptions apply). They didn't provide more than half of their own support for the year. Qualifying relative They don't have to be related to you (despite the name). They aren't claimed as a dependent by someone else. They're a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident. They aren’t filing a joint return with their spouse. They lived with you the entire year (exceptions apply). They made less than $5200 in 2025 (not counting Social Security) You provided more than half of their financial support.  

Thank you! Quick turnaround and this addressed the issue. I called customer support and the specialist had no clue, she said this screen has been removed from 2025 and it needs to come from W2 box 14, I said thank you and hung up coz I knew it's wrong information.

Some customers are experiencing issues when trying to file but are looped back instead of being able to proceed and file.  We are currently investigating this issue.    We will notify you once the program is updated.
