Still not sure where to enter the 1031 exchange information though. Assuming that the recaptured depreciation would be rolled into that as well, so not sure about how to close out the new dishwasher for renters or new roof (since wants to know how much I 'sold' roof for in closing out that depreciation.

I'm having the same issue. I purchased the 2025 Home & Business desktop version, which I've used successfully for years. When I download it to my Mac (running Sequoia 15.2), I get a file named "unconfirmed...crdownload" that tries to open in Adobe Acrobat Reader but generates an error message saying it is "not a supported file type." I have tried repeatedly. Is this just a defective product that I need to return to Costco?

If I understand correctly: You've filed your tax return. Your brother is on it. You've changed your mind and want to change it. If the return is rejected, you can go back into the return and make the change. If the IRS accepts the return, you will have to amend it.   TurboTax will be available to process amended returns for 2025 in late February of 2026. TurboTax provides a list of Tax form availability ‌for individual Federal and State returns forms that are‌ being revised. On the website Select Select return type [1040 Individual] Select agency [US - Federal] Third Box [1040X] Once available, you can make a change to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted.  You should follow these guidelines.  You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.  You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.  Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.   The refund calculator will start ‌at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due  Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.  You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment  Select your product below and follow the instructions.  Amend TurboTax Online  Amend TurboTax CD/Download     

Thanks, there were multiple issues going on and had to call into support to figure it out.  Biggest issue is the messaging isn't clear at all how to fix the issue. Turns out there was incorrect information somehow cached onto the return, which I couldn't remove, in addition to one incorrect number on a SSN that should have been part of the return.  So it looked like the cached dependent that I thought had been removed was continually the issue, when in fact it wasn't.   

Depending on the TurboTax version you are using try using the steps below to clear any background debris. This is not a common experience.   Try clearing the cookies and cache.   It handles many issues that seem nonsensical on a regular basis with online activity. Watch to be sure you are selecting 'all time' as example.  Do not use selections like 'last hour' for those browsers that give  you options. How to clear your cache  --Once this is complete open your return and try again. If you are using TurboTax Desktop, save your return, then at the top select Online, then Check for updates.   Please update here if you have more questions or your experience doesn't change.   @larryblivenjr 

I am using 2025 desktop TurboTax premier and Chrome browser.  I have the same exact issue with Merrill download.  I get a message "Success! We got your tax data. You can now return to TurboTax" but no data is downloaded.  I have no popup blocker either.

You can check the box under the Title in section VI where is says Part VI, that states check this box if taxpayer is electing a payment or transferring under section 48. When you do that the total will populate in line 4, section B.

Thank you I will follow up on your suggestions. Question regarding 'boot'.  I purchased a new rental property which was more than half the price of the duplex sale, so more than the rental sale portion. However, I did not take a mortgage out on that, but still followed the 45 day 1031 requirements and have that confirmation form from the escrow. Are you saying because no mortgage it it taxable gain? That confused me.   And yes, TT has been doing the depreciation over the years, but I will have to look for the receipts for the expenditures, half of which were depreciated, so that I can go against basis of other half of duplex.   Question: The home is one depreciable item under the business property, so is 'new garage doors' 'window treatments', etc. Assuming I close them out as well as 'taken out of service' due to sale?    It asks, 'was this asset included in sale of your main home?' It was in the rental unit so that would be a 'no' ?  And if so, then it wants a price for it which I can't do because fully depreciated and not separated out in sale of duplex. Confusing a bit.   Thanks, Adam
