I finally gave up.... I am so frustrated with TurobTax this year!!!! First it was that form 5695 did not work at all. Then finally it would let you fill it out via step by step. Then the Chase investments import got delayed from 2/17 to 2/22 to 2/24 then 2/26, just a horrible experience. Once it finally let you import it, it did not pick up that the investments were not digital (bitcoin type), but actual stocks. I had to step through 75 transactions identified as errors in the TurboTax review. Then finally, finally, finally I get to file my taxes because TurboTax review says all ready to file.   I file and both my federal and state taxes get rejected. I could not take it any more, I deleted form 5695 completely. Refiled my taxes and they were both accepted. Once my federal taxes get processed and refund issued I will file an amended tax return to get the energy credit refunded. Hopefully over the next couple of weeks TurboTax can get some competent programmers and get all their bugs fixed!!!   I have used TurboTax for over 30 years. I may switch to another tax prep program and never use it again!!! AND. and.... I believe TurboTax should issue a rebate to all its loyal users that have had to endure a nightmare of issues this year!   Forge on fellow tax filers     ! Best of luck !
It should be available now.  
when can I amend my 2025 tax return using TurboTax?

Federal and state refunds come from completely separate entities,  There is no rule as to which one will come first or how much time there will be between their arrivals.  Some states process returns quickly and some are very slow.   STATE RETURN Make sure your state return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/   To track your state refund:       ttps://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0

If Form 8582 (Passive Activity Loss Limitations) is blank and your Schedule E loss is showing as fully deductible, that means that the software is treating your rental property as non-passive activity. Here are possible reasons:   If you accidentally claimed "Real Estate Professional" status and that you materially participated in the rental, the losses become non-passive and fully deductible. Therefore, check to see if you indicated "Real Estate Professional" If the average period of customer use for your property is 7 days or less (short-term rentals), the IRS no longer categorizes it as a rental activity under the passive loss rules If you sold the property or completely disposed of it, the passive loss limitations are lifted, so check to ensure you did not accidentally check that you sold the property If you have offsetting passive income from another source, the software will use your Schedule E rental loss to offset that passive income, making it appear fully deductible   To correct the above, review the questions in each section, paying close attention to questions asking about being a "Real Estate Professional", materially participated, tenant occupancy durations and whether you sold the property.

The new login procedures for 2025 Turbo Tax are terrible and a huge time waster. I am frequently forced to log in with a username and a password. and then wait for an emailed verification code, which is much different from all previous years. This S U X. It's unbelievable that the testers at Intuit didn't flag this horrible interface.    Dennis

A form 1099-NEC, itself, indicates self employment. However if this is more like a prize you can enter it by using the steps below and do not enter the 1099-NEC itself. Keep it in your tax file, along with the reasons you received the income,  which will allow you to explain it should need to later.   Other Miscellaneous Income: Sign into your TurboTax Online account Go to  Wages and Income  section > Scroll to  Less Common Income > Select  Prizes Awards and Gambling Winnings Start or Update > answer Yes > No we didn't receive a W-2G > Continue > Did you __ win any other prizes or awards that didn't come from gambling?

Should we hire an accountant to file or is it safe to use turbotax assist?

I have an add on question to this topic @Mike9241    I was separated from my job at age 55 and took advantage of the NUA option and moved 100% of the company stock to a brokerage account last year(2025).  I believe I was able to do this and would avoid the 10% penalty.  I did get a 1099-R based on this activity and the numbers, taxable amt, box 6 NUA, etc all look good.   In the 1099-R, box 7 the distribution code is 1 which seems incorrect.  I believe maybe this should be 2?  Based on my activity and method I understood that I would avoid the 10% penalty and only pay tax on the Box 2a amount, but it appears Turbo Tax isn't work correctly or my 1099-R is incorrect.   Is there a different form or do I need to do something differently with the tax forms? Thanks for any help.

On a Joint return there is only 1 AGI for both of you.  Enter the same AGI  for each person.  If that doesn't work, try entering 0 for the AGI. The IRS might have processed your return later so the AGI didn't get entered in time.  Especially if you mailed it.  That works for most people. See, https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/rejections/help/what-if-i-entered-the-correct-agi-and-i-m-still-getting-an-e-file-reject/00/27031 How to correct the AGI in the Online version https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/where-do-i-correct-my-agi-in-turbotax-online/00/26311 If you can’t get it to efile you will have to print and mail it. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online/00/26258 Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.
