It sounds like this RRB Form 1099-R (Green Form) may have been entered in the Standard Form 1099-R section instead of the RRB 1099-R section. TurboTax is looking for information to match the specific type of form being entered, so let's delete this entry and then re-enter it.   How to delete the 1099-R:   Go to the Income section Click Review on IRA, 401(k), and pension plan withdrawals Click on the trash can to the right of your Form 1099-R, which will delete the Form Note: After deleting, go out of the Income section temporarily before inputting the Form again by clicking the Deductions & credits on the left panel. This helps to refresh the system Return to the Income section and re-enter your Form RRB 1099-R (Green Form), ensuring you select the RRB 1099-R box, before carefully following all of the prompts Note: a Blue RRB Form 1099 is not entered in the 1099-R section. That form is entered in the Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099) section

If TurboTax set up a direct debit with your state e-file, you generally can’t change the date in TurboTax after filing. Options: State DOR: Many states let you cancel or change an e-filed debit by calling before the debit date. See How do I contact my state Department of Revenue? Your bank: Ask to stop payment on that specific ACH debit (provide the state agency name, amount, and date). Do this a few business days before the scheduled draft. If you are able to stop the payment (otherwise you'll be paying double), then you can pay directly to your state, using a mailed in voucher, or the state's online portal.

If Box 6 (State Number) on your Form 1099-NEC is blank, you typically don't need to enter anything in TurboTax for that field unless your payer provided a state number.    If you can't continue without this step, try entering the federal tax ID number in box 6 of the 1099-NEC. This option should allow you to continue.

Thanks for your reply about using qualified allowable loss carry over to reduce the capital gains in selling the rental property. I have performed a hand calculation to estimate the taxes that will imposed on the "total gain" Line 24 and "depreciation allowed" Line 22 from Form 4797 Part III for the future sale. I found out that the only place that I used the "Capital Loss carry over" from 2025 income tax to reduce the 2026 capital gain is in "Schedule D Capital Gains and Losses" line 14 to obtain the net long term capital gain; then reported this gain to Form 1040 Line 7a Capital Gain (attached Sch. D) to compute the Adjusted Gross Income. Form 1040 Line 16 Tax ... will come from "Schedule D Tax Worksheet" Line 47 is Tax on all taxable income including capital gain. Question: Is my finding "correct" so far in estimating the 2026 income tax calculation with future sale of rental property? Thanks in advance for your reply.

@lmiceli Line 34900 shows you the Allowable donation for the year, which may not be the full amount of donations that you entered.   As for why it's not reducing your amount owing, are you preparing your return with a spouse/partner? Is it going on their return instead?   

@DaveF1006, thank you for taking the time to provide a thorough and helpful explanation.  Based on my understanding and testing, it seems that there are two scenarios to consider in order to understand the behavior of TurboTax on the screen entitled “Any foreign source qualified dividends or long term capital gains?"…   Scenario 1:  Form 1099-DIV, Box 1a = Box 1b TFI must equal the value of FQD entered on the screen entitled “Any foreign source qualified dividends or long term capital gains?" because, by definition, all dividends are qualified. This TurboTax behavior remains the same, whether FQD are adjusted or not. For reference, the adjustment is described in the IRS publication “Form 1116 Instructions” in the section “Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet (Individuals),” and the adjustment amount appears on the Foreign Tax Credit Computation Worksheet, Line 1k (“Adjustment required for QD/LTCG”).   Scenario 2:  Form 1099-DIV, Box 1a > Box 1b TFI can be greater than the value of FQD entered on the screen entitled “Any foreign source qualified dividends or long term capital gains?", in contrast to Scenario 1. This TurboTax behavior remains the same, whether the FQD are adjusted or not.  For reference, a helpful article illustrating this scenario is:  How to Enter Foreign Tax Credit Form 1116 in TurboTax.   Dave, can you kindly confirm (or correct) my understanding – for the benefit of all who may find this thread at a later date?   P.S.:  Abbreviations used herein… TFI:  “Total foreign income for this category” as displayed on the screen entitled “Any foreign source qualified dividends or long term capital gains?" when completing the Foreign Tax Credit interview.  It is also known as “Foreign dividends received” as entered on the screen “Tell us about your foreign dividends” when inputting the Form 1099-DIV information.  The amount is equal to Form 1099-DIV Box 1a multiplied by a “foreign source income percentage” specified in the supplemental tax reporting information provided by the mutual fund company. FQD:  “Foreign qualified dividends and 1.t. capital gains.” Form 1099-DIV, Box 1a:  Total ordinary dividends. Form 1099-DIV, Box 1b:  Qualified dividends.
