Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery       Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

If you have NOT e-filed yet, you can go back to MY INFO and click your name.   Then go through the screens to the question that asked if you can be claimed as someone else's dependent---say YES.   If you already e-filed and your return was accepted---you have a different situation.   Post back if that is your issue.

Yes, if you are using online and  if you upgrade to Live Assist you can get a review of your return.   LIVE ASSISTED https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/live/how-it-works.htm   If you used desktop download: Live expert help with desktop software   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/experts-advice/turbotax-desktop-live-tax-advice/L2nvxpA4W_US_en_US?uid=m5leh972  

I am very sorry for your loss.   Your instinct to make sure the order is the same as in the past is a good one. I have seen problems with that before with state returns, and I wouldn't want to count on the IRS systems not having some odd hiccup.   In the TT desktop software, the order of the Personal Worksheets shown in forms mode is not helpful. It appears to be alphabetical by first name. There are two Personal Worksheets. One is for the "taxpayer" and the other is for the "spouse" ... take a look and see if that is what is happening. If so you could just try swaping them.  That might be ok unless you have carryovers that are different for each of you (because of separate businesses, for example). You could check the Carryforward worksheet for some of that. K-1's also have a Taxpayer/Spouse checkbox.

Somewhere in MY INFO you answered incorrectly when it asked if your Social Security card says "invalid for employment" so you need to go back to MY INFO, click your name and go back through the screens slowly and carefully---read every screen top to bottom--- to answer correctly about your Social Security card.

TurboTax gives you an estimated date for receiving your refund based on a 21 day average from your date of acceptance, but it can take longer.  “21 days”  is not a promise from TurboTax or the IRS.      First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:  https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/   Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.     You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:    https://www.irs.gov/refunds   To track your state refund:     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/track-state-refund/L3jgO8PGs_US_en_US?uid=lt447ebr   If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/refunds-take-longer-others/L14YlqFrH_US_en_US?uid=lexdr7zh . https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/irs-refund-taking-longer-21-days/L2vRAJbdU_US_en_US?uid=lexe7lst         If you are getting earned income credit on line 27 or additional child tax credit on line 28 You are subject to the delay required by the PATH act.  Do not expect your refund before early March   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/internal-revenue-service/federal-refunds-delayed-due-path-act/L5jnQJsBi_US_en_US   Note:  “Accepted” is not the same as “approved”.  TurboTax tells you the e-file was accepted if the IRS deems that there is enough information on the return for them to take it in for processing.   Only the IRS can approve of the refund, which is a later stage of processing.  If the IRS approves your refund they will provide a date for the refund to be issued.   FROM THE IRS WHERE’S MY REFUND SITE: https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund How it works Where's My Refund shows your refund status: Return Received – We received your return and are processing it. Refund Approved – We approved your refund and are preparing to issue it by the date shown. Refund Sent – We sent the refund to your bank or to you in the mail. It may take 5 days for it to show in your bank account or several weeks for your check to arrive in the mail.      

I have all the information entered into the Asset wks and under DISPOSITION the Asset Sales Price (Sales price of building excluding the land) and the Land sales price.  It still does not put the Land gain in Part 1 of the 4797. Please re-read my original question where is said what lines were filled in.  I believe I had done exactly what you wrote. Thanks

No one can call you from the user forum.    It sounds like you got a letter from the IRS  or state and you need to follow the instructions in the letter.   Round up the documents they want and make copies and send them to the address the letter tells you to send them to.   TurboTax does not have copies of any of those documents.   TurboTax only has the information you entered.   So it is up to you to get copies from the employer(s), the casino (or whoever issued the W-2G if you do not have it any more) , your 1099R from the financial institution that issued it (r their web site) and your 1098T from your school (or the school's web site).   As for renter's information--you have not told us what state you are in.   In some states the landlord or property owner issues a rent certificate which you will need to provide to the state to get a state rent credit.

What?  Do you need to access  your past returns?  Only you or they can get them.  How to Access prior year online returns https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/27010 If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2025 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2025. I had to go though about 12 screens. If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups. Or request a transcript from the IRS https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript Or get a copy of your return using form 4506 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

In that case, check your email's spam/junk folder to see if it might have ended up there.   You can also verify your email or change the email address if desired (using the steps below.)   You can go to your settings in your Intuit account and change or verify your email address there if it's not verified. In the left menu column scroll way down to Intuit Account. Then once in the account choose tab Sign In & Security. See if your email address has a tiny link beside it that says "not verified".  If so, click that to verify. Perhaps once you verify it there in the account settings, it won't ask you to verify it again when you are efiling. Or you can change it to a different notifications email address, if needed.  If you do, then try to verify it within the account settings. If after all that, you still can't resolve your issue, here's how to reach TurboTax Support 5AM-9PM Pacific, 7 days/week..   FAQ: What is the TurboTax phone number? https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/what-is-the-turbotax-phone-number/00/25632   If you use Free Edition and don't have phone support, another way to reach them if you have social media is to direct message a Support agent: https://x.com/TeamTurboTax or https://www.facebook.com/turbotax

What taxes did you pay that you need to carry over?  A prior year federal tax due is not entered.  You can enter a state tax due.    Enter it under Federal Taxes (or Personal for H&B) Deductions and Credits Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button Next page scroll down to Other Income Taxes Paid in 2025 Balance due on your 2024 State taxes paid in 2025 or Payments for 2024 or a prior year state or local paid in 2025

There are several kinds of 1099G's and they are entered in different parts of the software.   What did you receive a 1099G for?  Unemployment?   A state or local tax refund?   Taxable grant?  Agriculture program payment?   Something else?
