No one in the user forum can resolve a billing issue.  If you have a question about your TurboTax fees or billing, make sure you use the word “billing” in your request for help.  Do not use the word “refund.”   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/contact-turbotax/L2y9ZKpQB_US_en_US?uid=m5s9l2vh       You say that you are on Social Security.  If Social Security was your only income you are not required to file a tax return unless you have a 1095A for marketplace health insurance.      Who has to file? http://www.irs.gov/uac/Do-I-Need-to-File-a-Tax-Return%3F

Are you able to log into your TurboTax account using a browser on your phone?  If so, once you log in, a screen should appear titled "Hi [name], let's keep working on your taxes!".  The main menu will be right below that with the first section being Personal Info.   It your signal (cellular or Wi-Fi) is weak, this may cause some pages to load slowly - having a strong signal will be helpful.   If you are still having issues, you may want to consider contacting us by phone at 800-446-8848.  That phone number is staffed from 5 AM to 9 PM PT every day during tax season.

The reason you don't see the new $6,000 Senior Deduction added to your "Standard Deduction" total is that the IRS has structured it as a separate line item this year. It does not reside on the same line as your Standard Deduction (Line 12), which is why your $15,750 + $2,000 calculation looks "original."   Instead, it is listed on  Form 1040, Line 13b as a separate line item. You can verify this by;   How to Preview Your 1040 Online   Sign in to your TurboTax account and open your return.  On the left-side menu, select Tax Tools (you may need to scroll down to see it).  Click on Tools in the dropdown menu. In the "Tools Center" pop-up window, select View Tax Summary. Once the summary page loads, look at the left-side menu again and click Preview my 1040. Look on line 13B to see if it is listed. If using the software, go to the forms mode, select Form 1040, and verify if $6000 is appearing on line 13b.

What is happening when you try to import?   If you received a "Success" message but your data hasn't appeared in TurboTax, it is likely due to recent browser security updates regarding Local Network Access.   To fix this you need to allow TurboTax to securely retrieve your data through your browser settings: Locate the View Site Information icon (the "tune" or "lock" icon) on the far left of your address bar, just before the URL. Find Local Network Access in the dropdown menu. Toggle the switch to ON. Refresh the page and attempt your import again. What do I do when my data isn't imported into TurboTax Desktop even though it says successful import in my browser? If permissions aren't the issue, one of the following factors may be at play: Brokerage Delays: While most forms arrive by January 31, many brokerages delay Consolidated 1099s (like the 1099-B) until mid-February due to complex reporting requirements. Availability: Your brokerage must specifically "release" the import file to TurboTax. If it isn’t ready, we recommend checking back. Connection Blocks: Active VPNs or aggressive Anti-Virus software can occasionally block the import feature between your bank and TurboTax. Try disabling them temporarily or switching to a different browser. Helpful TurboTax Articles: What if I can't import my 1099? How can I fix my 1099 import issue? How do I import my 1099s?
