Thank you for providing your token number.  I have taken a closer look at your tax file and I do not see any issues with the amount reported on Schedule A line 5a.  The number in that field included 3 of the 4 state estimated payments, as it should.  The fourth estimated payment was made in early 2026, so it should not be included.  But, there was a 2024 estimated payment made in early 2025 that has been included, along with your 2024 state refund that you allocated to your 2025 return.     Since a portion of your total tax payments and withholdings to the state for your 2024 return was actually paid in 2025, a portion of the tax refund you received must be allocated to 2025 as well.  Then, that allocated amount of your refund is used to adjust the payment that was made in 2025.  Without making this adjustment, it would be possible for a taxpayer to artificially inflate their deductions for the current tax year by overpaying their 4th quarter estimated payment in January.     In your case, the amount of your state refund for 2024 divided by your total tax payments and withholdings did come out to be about 9.6%.  Therefore, the estimated payment made in 2025 was reduced by that same percentage before it was included on Schedule A as part of your itemized deductions.     The State and Local Income Tax Worksheet (St Refund Wks) shows the numbers involved in the calculation.     All that being said, your return is using the Standard Deduction, so Schedule A is not included for your 2025 tax return at all.   You are free to electronically file your return whenever you are ready.  There are no errors that need correction before you file. @user17724743702

And yet people last year and again this year are having trouble with it. This is where you get your UX team involved to discuss ways to improve the screen. I can't say I remember the screen being presented that way. And it does seem I would have answered that question correctly. And yet, again, I had this problem (and so did others). Just suggesting this should be investigated.

If you are referring to box 4 of the Form 1099-G that is used when federal income taxes are withheld from the payment you received.  If the box 4 on your 1099-G is empty, then there is nothing that needs to be done.   If you are receiving an error that says you need to enter something in box 4, then delete the Form 1099-G and re-enter.

We'd like to help you complete your amendment, but need more information. Can you please clarify are you trying to add new Schedule C self-employment income, or was Schedule C already included on the original return?

also running Premier on MAC OS 26 and for example I have no issue entering an EV, saving, and coming back to edit it.   Not to say there aren't bugs you are hitting (esp in the reworked charity donation section) but there are probably different issues here that may not be things Intuit can "fix" so you may need to workaround in Forms mode, try re-installing the s/w etc.   If you have screenshots where you are seeing things that you can't edit only add that may be helpful to see, you can attach using the camera button above the message box here (don't attach personal info).

When amending your tax return, separate the 1099-K income between personal items and hobby sales. '   The personal items you sold at a loss aren't deductible. The hobby income must be reported as other income and expenses can only offset income up to the amount earned.    For more information, see   How do I enter a 1099-K for hobby income
