I am married, filing jointly. We have been living in our primary residence for close to 4 years. I will be tearing down the old home, build a larger home and plan to sell it after building. Construction takes 10-12months. On the sale proceeds, can i still claim the $500K tax deduction primary residence since we have stayed in the older home for 4 years? Thank you for your suggestions!

There is a workaround if your computer has the capacity and you know the steps, which you can find on the web. You can create a VM to run W11 on what is a Windows 10 computer. OR   if you have the capacity to install or have a second hard drive with other steps you can find on the web, you can even install W11 without creating a VM. Of course, anything on that drive will be wiped, and if you want your W10 apps to run on this drive, they will need to be reinstalled. I can almost guarantee some will not work.

Thank you for the message. The guidance says: once your return is accepted, you can amend (make changes) right away. It does not say that you must wait until the tax refund is received or (or your balance due payment has been processed).  I submitted my Amend and e-file after both my Federal and State returns showed as accepted. Would there be any consequences for doing this? Thank you

I'm having the same issue where my rental information isn't transferring over. I see that the discussion above says that this was fixed for TurboTax Desktop on 2/11/2026, but was this also fixed for TurboTax Online? I already tried restarting my return and choosing to import from the previous year, but my rental info still isn't showing up

I was confused when started filing the amended 2025 return via desktop Turbo Tax. The first instruction message was told that I can e-file only California amended return, but Federal must be printed and mail by regular mail. When I processed with e-filing, it was completed very quickly. Then, I printed federal amended return and prepared for mailing. On the next day I got conformation of accepting state return and then another conformation of accepting federal amended return. The TurboTax software has also confirmation of accepting both returns. Do I still need to mail federal? Why was the first instruction so confusing? Thank you for clarification.  
Were you ever able to find a solution to this? I am currently in the same situation. Thanks!

You should answer all of the questions. If TurboTax accepts the answers and allows you the full amount of the interest on your 1098 (assuming that your portion of the property's loan is less than $750,000 if not filing a Separate return), then your answers should be fine.   For the 2025 tax year, you can deduct mortgage interest on up to $750,000 of mortgage debt ($375,000 for married filing separately) if your loan was taken out after Dec. 15, 2017. If your loan was taken out on or before this date, you can deduct interest on up to $1 million in debt ($500,000 if married filing separately)   See this TurboTax tips article for more information.   @Happyduck25

Mine will import all standard stock transactions but leaves behind all options trades. I have enough trades that it will be painful to enter all by hand but not even close to the published limits for importing. If anyone has any tips I am all ears.

Hello: Is there a way to pull Form 1116 automatically from the previous year to reflect the carryover amounts?  I am not claiming any credits this year; however would like to enter the carryover amounts for future returns.    I forgot how I entered the Foreign Tax Credits from the past 10 years and having trouble figuring out how to enter the details again within Turbo Tax.  I was able to get to "Country Summary" page, however not able to figure out how to get to the page to enter the carryover amounts for the past 10 years.

You need to clear the RMD information you have already entered in TurboTax.  To do so, you will have to delete your Forms 1099-R.  After you delete the forms re-enter them.  When you are asked "How much of the [distribution amount] was an RMD?"  Mark the button to indicate that "The entire distribution was an RMD".   On the screen with "Let's get more information about your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD)."  the program asks "Could you tell us what the required minimum distribution for your account was in 2025?" Enter the same amount that was in box 1 of your 1099-R.  Do this for each of your Form 1099-R.      After you have entered all your Forms 1099-R, on the screen with ""Let's check if you met the minimum distribution requirement" the program will ask "Did you take the required minimum distribution (RMD) for 2025 for ALL of your retirement accounts that have this requirement?".  Answer Yes, assuming that you have met your combined RMD requirements.      The RMD information that shows may be more than your actual combined RMD amount for the year.  That's OK.  The information is not included with your tax return and is not reported to the IRS.

Bonjour, J'ai absolument le même problème lors de la trasnmission au Provincial. Même problème ici.  Impossible de transmettre la déclaration provinciale Québec. Importation des données de l'an passé donc tout ok . Transmission au fédéral sans problème. Aucun changement depuis l'an passé dans les renseignements personnels depuis l'an passé, pas de lettres avec accents, pas de signes étranges (tirets, accents, etc). Et aucune personne à charge. Je n'ai pas d'Annexe 3, alors rien dedans. J'ai l'Annexe L et je pense que je ne dois pas l'effacer et fermer, car j'ai TP-80 P2 (seulement le P2), est-ce correct ? Je n'ai pas de gain en capital imposable pour la 2025, dans le formulaire TP-726.7 pour l'année 2024 il y a un certain chiffre pour perte nette pour la 2024 dans la colonne C et dans la colonne E - Exedent du montant, mais je ne demande rien pour l'année 2025 !   Dans les révisions avant d'essayer de faire le transfert au Provincial, j'ai un Avertissement : "Veuillez vérifier vos dépenses d'entreprise car nous avons détecté le même montant pour plus d'un élément de dépense ou vous avez des dépenses mais aucun revenu." J'ai vérifié - aucun dédoublement de dépenses. En réalité - jÉai des dépenses, mais pas de revenu pour l'exercice, mais ceci ne devrait pas causer le problème, il me semble.     Aucune chance de transmettre Au Provincial ! C'est une "premiere" avec ce logicial depui plus de 25 ans ! Orline POPOV

I did not live for more than few days in CA in 2025. But I purchased a single-family home in Merced, CA mid- December 2025 and placed it in service as a rental property later that month. Should I still file CA taxes as non-resident?  Also, will there be other benefits such as helping preserve CA loss carry forward?   Timeline: • Property purchased: early December 2025 • Property listed for rent: December 14, 2025 (listing went live through a property manager and syndicated to rental sites) • Tenant moved in: February 2026

Please clarify which numbers don't match.    Form 2439 reports undistributed capital gains and tax paid by a regulated investment company (RIC) or real estate investment trust (REIT) on your behalf, which are entered into Schedule D and as a tax credit.    The RIC or REIT can truncate a shareholder’s identifying number on the Form 2439 the RIC or REIT sends to the shareholder. Truncation is not allowed on the Form 2439 the RIC or REIT files with the IRS. Also, the RIC or REIT cannot truncate its own identification number on any form.   If you are missing some numbers because the RIC or REIT truncated a number on the information sent to you, contact them if necessary to get the complete number.
