Because i have some stocks loaned out already in 2026 that are paying me, i had clicked not only "You got it in 2025" but also  "You intend to get it in 2026. See examples".  Clicking  this box linked it to a schedule C. When i unclicked  this box, it worked without going into the schedule C route. I guess it interpreted that "You intend to get it..." as a business. 

Remove any space in your name, if there’s one, because TurboTax reads spaces like extra characters and that can cause errors. Make sure your name matches exactly with a Social Security Record.    To fix that, go to the "My Info" section to edit names, get rid of any special characters, make sure to use only letters, and verify Social Security numbers match.    If the issue persists, it might be a good idea to update the program by clearing your browser's cookies and cache: How do I delete cookies  How to clear your cache    If the issue continues, you may consider to file by mail.

Those are just the instructions for line 17, you would enter $150,000 if you are not married filing jointly, for married filing joint returns you would enter $300,000.  In your case, since you are single the entry for this line should be $150,000.     You should not need to change any numbers on the Schedule 1-A because TurboTax calculates this line on the schedule based on your filing status.  If you have a different amount, you will need to go back through your My info section and check what your filing status is.      

It depends. According to IRS Publication 502:   You can include in medical expenses the amount you pay for cosmetic surgery if it is necessary to improve a deformity arising from, or directly related to, a congenital abnormality, a personal injury resulting from an accident or trauma, or a disfiguring disease.   Note that only out-of-pocket medical expenses can be included as itemized deductions on Schedule A of Form 1040.

If you are using the Online version of TurboTax you will need to setup a new account using a new User ID.   Sign out of your current TurboTax account to avoid overwriting your previous return. Go to TurboTax.com. If your browser automatically logs you into the old account, Clear your browser's cache, cookies, and history Enter your Email address On the sign in page select New to TurboTax?  Create an account Enter your  User ID (Not the same as your previous account) Password Phone Create an Intuit Account However, if you're using the Desktop software, you can install  it on up to five computers.   Once you've downloaded and installed the software (Same procedure as the first time) Log into turboTax File  New Tax Return to start a separate return. The software allows free e-filing for up to 5 federal returns. Additional state programs or e-files may require extra fees.   

When did you efile or mail it? If you efiled was it Accepted? When you efile you get back 2 emails. The first email only confirms the transmission. The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile. Check back though your emails and spam/junk folder. How to check your efile status https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/electronic-filing/check-e-file-status/L9XhHDPtD_US_en_US?uid=lvriwl8j When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc. What does it say? If your account says Printed or Ready to Mail that means you have to actually print out your tax return and mail it to the IRS yourself. So it has not been filed yet. And it will always say Ready to Mail. Turbo Tax doesn’t know if or when you mailed it and the IRS doesn’t update Turbo Tax when they get your mailed return.

After finishing my U.S. return, I start on Maryland. There I see the following prompt: Next, keeping in mind that I'm a Part-Year MD resident (no place of abode there after June 30, and having established new domicile in Pennsylvania on July 1) as set forth in the part-year residence resident box on the first page of MD Form 502, I get to the following screen: This automatic subtraction is incorrect. Recall that $524 is ALL of my interest on U.S. government obligations. As we know, I will only recognize the portion of the dividends I received from the relevant mutual fund while I was a Maryland resident (see below), and I can only deduct the portion of the interest I received from U.S. government obligations while I was a Maryland resident. There is, however, no obvious way for me to correct it. Eventually, I come to the following prompt: This prompt is a bit of a head-scratcher, but I figure my income received while a resident of a state other than Maryland (PA income, in my case) includes, among other things, all of the dividends paid by the relevant mutual fund while I was a PA resident less the interest on U.S. government obligations paid by the fund while I was a PA resident (doing the math, the latter amount comes to $311.46).    So far, I think I've done everything TurboTax has asked me to do. But when I look at my Maryland Form 502SU, line AB, and Maryland Form 502, line 13, I see that TurboTax has deducted ALL of my interest from U.S. Government obligations for the entire year ($524) from my Maryland income. That amount can't be right. It exceeds the amount of interest I received from U.S. Government obligations while I was a resident of Maryland. In fact, it exceeds the amount of all of the dividends I received from the relevant fund while I was a resident of Maryland. So what to do? (More . . . )  

Did you use TurboTax Desktop or TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online)?    If you used TurboTax Desktop, then your returns are only saved on your computer, not on our servers. Try looking in the TurboTax folder in your Documents folder, or use the built in Windows search to look for .tt24 files.   If you used TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online), did you login directly to 2024 to see if your return was there? You can login to TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online) 2024 here: https://ww1.2024.ca.turbotaxonline.intuit.com/   If it wasn't there, do you have more than one account? If you do, your return might be there.
