Q. Can I list the total on that form instead of the total on the 1098-T?  A. Yes.   The 1098-T is only an informational document. The numbers on it are not required to be entered onto your tax return. However receipt of a 1098-T frequently means you are either eligible for a tuition credit or possibly your student has taxable scholarship income.  If you claim the tuition credit, you do need to report that you got one. You claim the tuition credit, or report scholarship income, based on your own financial records, not the 1098-T. In the 1098-T screen, click on the link "What if this is not what I paid the school" underneath box 1. You will then be able to enter the actual amounts paid. You will also reach a screen that allows you to adjust the scholarship amount for "amounts not awarded for 2025 expenses". Or if you find it easier, just change the numbers in boxes 1& 5 to what your records show. The 1098-T that you enter in TT is not sent to the IRS
So, do I complete both parts of the instructions or just the second part?
how can i file without choosing payment plan before filing?

Personal income may not match adjusted gross income (AGI). For instance, non-taxable income would be included in personal Income but not in AGI. Non-taxable income can come from things like state bond interest or non-taxable social security benefits.   Capital gain income may be reduced by capital loss carryovers from previous years. So, the amount appearing on your form 1040, line 7(a) may differ from the amount reported on your Forms 1099-B. Also, you have to deduct investment losses from investment gains to arrive at net capital gains. Furthermore, all investment sales may not appear on Form 1099-B, they can also be reported on Form 1099-DIV and some may not be reported at all.   I'm not sure what you mean by "UI total directly additive." I would help if you could clarify that better, especially the meaning of "UI", as it normally means unearned income, but could also mean untaxed income.   Adjusted gross income is listed on line 11(a) on form 1040. You can see the sources of it from lines 1 to 10 listed on form 1040. You would have to trace backwards from the entries on Form 1040 to the source documents to verify the accuracy of the amounts on Form 1040 that make up AGI.

If you withdrew your 2025 excess contribution to your Roth IRA before the due date of the 2025 tax return (April 15, 2026), make sure that you also withdraw the related earnings.   On your 2025 tax return, you do not report the excess contribution as it has been withdrawn. The earnings have to reported and taxed in 2025,   For this, you would create a 2026 form 1099-R with the total distribution (excess plus earnings) in box 1, the earnings in box 2a and code PJ in box 7. You then enter this 1099-R on your 2025 tax return, and the earnings will be taxed. When entering this form 1099-R, make sure to indicate that the year on the form is 2026, as this is a replica of the form you will receive for year 2026 in 2027.   When you receive the 2026 form 1099-R with code PJ in box 7 (in 2027) for this withdrawal, there is no further action needed.

In general, if you want TurboTax to prepare quarterly estimates and vouchers, go to the Estimated Taxes section in Other Tax Forms under Other Tax Situations. You can still do this after you filed, if your return has already been accepted. If using TurboTax Online, follow these steps:   Reopen Return: Log into TurboTax. If already filed, select "Add a State" to unlock the return, but do not actually add a new state. Locate Section: Go to the Federal tab, then Other Tax Situations. Find Estimates: Look for Other Tax Forms and select Start/Update next to "Form W-4 and Estimated Taxes". Navigate Interview: Say "No" to changing W-4 withholdings to jump directly to the estimated taxes section. Generate Forms: Follow the prompts to enter expected income. When asked, opt to print the vouchers.    At the first screen, Adjust How Much Tax You Pay, choose Estimates rather than W-4 as a basis for the estimate. You can also choose not to let the program use your 2025 wages as a basis to estimate tax for 2026, and enter in the amounts of income you project to receive and deductions you expect to claim. TurboTax will prepare vouchers, but does not automatically print them until you are ready to file.   You can also choose to make payments directly on the IRS website.   See this tax tips article for more information about estimated taxes.   @mattcuervo

In February 2025, I made my full $8,000 2025 contribution to my Roth IRA. Huge capital gain amounts pushed me over the limit of being able to contribute, however. I've had the $8,000 reversed and deposited into my bank account, as well as approximately $1,000 in profits made on the $8,000. My question is how and where do I report these events in TurboTax? Does just changing the answer to what my contribution was from $8,000 to $0 cover it, or is there something else that is have to do. Also, how should the $1,000 in profits be reported?

It said that I had three or more fields on my W2 that were identical values. The fields in question were Federal Wages, State Wages, and Local Wages. All three of those were indeed the same value on the W2. TurboTax told me that makes the state return ineligible for e-filing. Since I had told it I wanted to e-file my state prior to running into this, it added the $59 charge to my fees. Now I can't remove it since I have to mail in my state return. I went ahead and e-filed my federal and printed my state for mailing but it would be nice if I could get that $59 refunded.
