Depende. Si está divorciada, podría calificar para ciertos beneficios fiscales dependiendo de su situación. Puede ser elegible para presentar como Cabeza de Familia si tiene un hijo que califica y paga más de la mitad de los gastos del hogar. Este estado generalmente resulta en una tasa de impuestos más baja y una deducción estándar más alta en comparación con presentar como soltera. También podría calificar para créditos como el Crédito por Ingreso del Trabajo (EITC) si sus ingresos están dentro de los límites, y puede reclamar dependientes si tiene la custodia de los niños. Tenga en cuenta que la pensión alimenticia recibida o pagada bajo acuerdos después de 2018 generalmente no es imponible ni deducible.  

For the "amount to be carried back", this box is only used if you are filing a Section 1256 loss carryback to prior years (allowed for net losses only). Section 1256 contracts have a special rule: If you have a net loss on Section 1256 contracts for the year, the IRS allows you to carry that loss back up to 3 years — but only to years in which you had gains from Section 1256 contracts.   The good news is that most taxpayers never use the “Amount to be carried back” box at all, and TurboTax only shows it because the IRS allows a very specific, optional election. If this is the case, you may ignore this box.   @dhawal55

Oh.... if you had to ID Verify, you may have a significant wait.   A FAQ at the IRS website states that after ID verification, it "may" take up to 9 weeks to finish processing.   However, it doesn't necessarily take that long.  For many, it can be a lot sooner than that.    That's why they say "may" and "up to."   No one can tell you when that will be.  You'll just have to keep watching the WMR tool every few days.   Source:  Scroll down to see the FAQ for "Your Refund" at this page (under Help Topics)  https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/verify-your-return

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.
