FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE: https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund How it works Where's My Refund shows your refund status: Return Received – We received your return and are processing it. Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown. Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.   Santa Barbara Tax Products Group, LLC  (SBTPG) is the bank that handles the Refund Processing Service when you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund. This option also has an additional charge from the bank that processes the transaction.    You can contact them SBTPG, toll-free, at 1-877-908-7228 or go to their secure website www.sbtpg.com   

If you mean that instead of showing the Sec. 179 amount from your K-1 Box 12 on the line for "Decoupling from PTE", it appears in the total in Column 1 "Federal as Filed", then it may be the case that your passthrough Sec. 179 expense does not exceed the Maryland limits (see the first orange circle in the below screenshot), and you are allowed to claim it in full as it appears on your federal return, without the need for a state modification. Since the PTE line only has an ending amount in Column 3, if it is allowable, then it would be figured into Line 1 Column 1, and the adjustment in Column 2 could pertain to other decoupled Maryland provisions, such as any new (from the 2025 OBBBA) 100% bonus depreciation taken on your Schedule E Form 4562 fixed assets.     This is speculative, given I don't know enough detail about your depreciable assets and methods used on Sch E for the tax year, or the amount passed through to you on Schedule K-1. As the screenshot indicates, Maryland partially decouples from Sec. 179 to a limited amount, but fully disallows "Special Depreciation Allowance" bonus. Did you take any accelerated depreciation types on your rental assets? Are there any other details you could share?    Learn more: 2025 Maryland Form 500DM Instructions

Yes. I'm having the same problem, and it's extremely frustrating. I've tried everything that is suggested in the Internet No joy there     What's interesting is that the data is being downloaded to TurboTax. After the import when I press on the view details, it shows all of the correct data, but TutboTax is not integrating it into its forms.   So this is not a communications problem; this is something in the TurboTax code. 

Only the IRS is in control.   TurboTax gets no information from the IRS after you file your return.   Watch the IRS refund site for information.   You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:    https://www.irs.gov/refunds  

Just delete the form- see How do I view and delete forms in TurboTax Online?   IRS Form 8615 ("Tax for Certain Children Who Have Unearned Income") calculates the "kiddie tax" for children under 18 (and some older, dependent children) with over $2,700 in unearned income (e.g., interest, dividends, capital gains) for 2025. It applies the parents' higher tax rate to this income.

You will report your 1099-R (including the lump-sum)  on your 2025 return, but you do have two options regarding the tax treatment.   1.) You can be taxed on all the income on your 2025 tax return at your 2025 tax rate OR 2.) You can opt to pay the tax on your 2025 return, BUT AT THE RATE YOU WOULD HAVE PAID ON IT HAD THE INCOME BEEN PROPERLY PAID IN THE PREVIOUS YEAR(S). If you have no tax on your Social Security Payments, it doesn't matter, but if the additional income puts you into a higher tax bracket, you might want to use that second option. Basically you figure the tax you would have been charged on your 2024 return for that income and then pay that dollar amount on your 2025 return. TurboTax can help you determine if this is advantageous for you.   Designate the 2024 amount as a lump-sum payment and proceed through the interview.  TurboTax will ask for certain numbers from your Tax Year 2024 Federal return (1040) such as the amount of  Social Security you received in 2024 (line 6a) , 2024 taxable Social Security (line 6b) your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI, line 11) and if you had any Tax-Exempt Interest (line 2a)     HERE is a link with more information.
