You need to have the actual electronic pdf file not a printed or scanned copy. But a pdf only transfer very basic info like your name and AGI. It would be just as easy to manually enter all your info. So it's probably not worth even trying to transfer it.   Are you on Windows or Mac?

Sounds like something got stuck. You can try these things:   Log Out Completely: Before doing anything else, click Sign Out in the TurboTax menu. Clear Cache and Cookies: This removes old, "corrupted" data that might be confusing the website. Use an Incognito (Private) Window: This is the most effective "quick fix" because it launches the browser without any saved history or extensions (like AdBlockers) that often interfere with tax forms. Check Pop-up Blockers: TurboTax often opens forms (like the 1099 PDF) or payment windows in a separate pop-up. Look at the right side of your address bar for a small icon with a "red X"—click it and select "Always allow pop-ups from Intuit." Restart the Browser: Close all open windows of your browser entirely and then reopen it.   Most TurboTax errors happen because the browser is trying to use an old "session" from a previous visit. By clearing the cache or using Incognito mode, you force the browser to establish a brand-new, secure connection with the Intuit servers.

We recommend clearing your browser's cache and cookies or switching to a different browser. You can also try opening an incognito or private window to see if a browser extension is blocking the page. If that doesn't work, try using the TurboTax app.   If the issue persists, we suggest contacting our product support team.     Thank you for choosing 

You use the 2024 AMT income. You find that on line 4 of Form 6251. If the amount is negative, enter it as a negative number.   Turbo tax is asking for your 2024 AMT loss carryovers if you had any, which is rare. You would only have that if your capital losses for AMT purposes were different than for regular tax purposes. If so, then you would find those on the Schedule D you prepared for AMT purposes as opposed to the one used for regular tax purposes.

We are unable to reproduce this experience in TurboTax Business. It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file that is experiencing this issue for any state other than GEORGIA. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions:    Open your return and go to Online in the top menu, then choose "Send Tax File to Agent." You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number. Reply to this thread with a screenshot of your Token number (this avoids Community filters for numbers with a dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important.   We will attempt to determine the cause of your experience and possibly provide you with a resolution.   @schen_email  @Oliver  @user17730638446 

The following steps should help make this easier to enter and follow, as well as the ability to complete and file your return.   When you reach the screen 'Tell us more about G's statutory employment' be sure to select the most closely aligned employment. Based on whatever I select the next screen will be 'Create a Schedule C to add your income'  Continue until you reach the Income screen, then select Self employment and you will see your business already created.  Edit beside the statutory income to add expenses, etc.   If necessary, delete your W-2 and be sure to select the necessary fields to complete your return (Delete, close return, reopen to enter your W-2 again.   Use the link below for your version of TurboTax to delete a form.

I tried previously filed, got the rejection prior to March 6th, went back in today (3/11/26) to re-enter the energy data and received the error message below. Is this still a TT issue or did I do something incorrectly?   "/Return/ReturnData/IRS5695/EgyEffcntHmImprvCrGrp/ExteriorDoorEgyStarRqrGrp/OthExteriorDoorEgyStarRqrGrp"
