No.  Online and Desktop are different.  Desktop can do unlimited returns and efile 5 federal for free.  The rest you can print and mail.   Online is only good for 1 return and 1 account. So you need to setup separate accounts for each person. The offer to switch to Online is only good for 1 return and account.

Closing the business doesn't make the loss nonrecoverable. When a single-member LLC (Schedule C business) is closed, any remaining unamortized startup costs are fully deductible in the final year. The total Schedule C loss of $14,630 will flow through your Form 1040 and offset other income,  subject only to normal limitations such as the at-risk rules or the excess business loss rules. If those don't apply to you, the full loss is deductible in 2025   Since you filed Schedule C in the past, closing a business couldn't be easier.  TurboTax will ask you if you disposed of your business during the year. Once answered - there's nothing else to do for your income tax return.  No additional forms are needed.

If you had a non-education withdrawal reported on a 1099-Q, the earnings will be taxable, so that amount is needed.  If you have that amount, subtract it from the distribution amount for a Cost Basis amount in Box 3.   Box 2 and 3 should add up to the Box 1 amount.  You may not have run into this when your earlier distributions were used for education expenses.  However, since you mention you have a 1098-T, it sounds like you did have qualified education education expenses.  If your 1099-Q distribution was for qualified expenses, you don't need to enter it in your return.  Keep records of what was paid with the 529 funds.   Here's more detailed info on Form 1099-Q.   @j0mike1993 

The question "Did you pay for more than 50%...." did not pop up for me. This is an account that I used before and, it tried to autofill my answers. But it NEVER asked if I paid more than 50% of expenses, i went back through the questions 3 times and never saw an option for that. I didn't even get the extra questions that you did. It just asked if I have an dependent and then moved on 

Your sale in late 2024 was a wash loss, and the loss was disallowed. That loss is added to the cost basis of the stock you subsequently bought. It is not carried over to your 2025 tax return, but will only be "realized" when you sell the stock last bought.   Please read this IRS document.

No, if your tax return was rejected, TurboTax doesn't charge to make the correction and resubmit.  However, if when you went back to your return you had to add additional forms or upgraded to a different version there might be a price increase.     If you are getting charged to resubmit, you can contact our customer service: What's the TurboTax phone number? Can I get the e-filing fee refunded if my state return got rejected?

Vous pouvez seulement réclamer les frais médicaux que vous payez de votre poche soit la partie que la compagnie d'assurance ne vous rembourse pas.  Si vous payez vos propres primes d'assurance - et non votre employeur qui les paient - vous pouvez déduire vos primes comme frais médicaux.    Voici la liste des frais médicaux admissibles au fédéral :  Frais médicaux admissibles que vous pouvez demander dans votre déclaration de revenus et au provincial: Les frais médicaux   Merci de choisir TurboImpôt

Hey BillM223, this was the best advice in attempt at resolving this issue.  I did call the 1-800 help line and I shared my screen, and the guy was nice, but couldn't figure it out, and he told me to pay MAX to get expert help.  This is not a tax issue, it's a software issue.  I think your solution may work.  I will give it a try and see what happens.  I'm not going to delete everything, just W2 and HSA sections and walk through those pieces again to see if it allows me to enter my personal HSA contributions.  Let's see!  I'll get back to you.  Thank you sooo much!

This is most unwelcome. I've been using It's Deductible for many years. I've become dependent on it. This is a slap in the face to me, personally. I've been using it TurboTax since 1995. I'm going to reevaluate my process based on this betrayal. Good Bye, TurboTax? I would like someone to call me about this to discuss this colossally stupid event. Did I mention I feel betrayed?

If you have filed your tax return the tax refund advance option is no longer available. Otherwise - See this - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-refund/refund-advance/L52Mg0G5u_US_en_US

You would have to look at your Form 1040 to see where the refund is coming from. It would be listed on line 34 and 35(a) on your Form 1040. It would be line 24 (tax) minus lines 25, 26 and 32. Those lines will list your tax paid in and tax credits you are eligible for. The first page of Form 1040 and up to line 15 on the second page would list your income and certain deductions. You can compare that to the same form last year to see what may have changed and then investigate further.   To view your Form 1040:   Choose Tax Tools from your left menu bar in TurboTax Online while working in your program Choose Tools Choose View Tax Summary See the Preview my 1040 option in the left menu bar and click on it Choose the Back option in the left menu bar when you are done    

You can navigate back to the section where you made the entries about the theft loss and delete them, whether you entered the loss in Schedule C or itemized deductions or elsewhere. You can then delete any unneeded forms that were created in TurboTax from your entries.    See this help article for instructions to delete a form in TurboTax Online. In TurboTax Desktop, go to Forms Mode by selecting Forms at the top of the screen and then searching the list of forms on the left side. You can delete a form once you select it by clicking Delete Form at the bottom of the display.   Casualty deductions apply to losses from unexpected events like natural disasters, theft, or accidents that damage your property. However, beginning with tax year 2018, a deduction is generally not available for net personal casualty losses (personal casualty losses in excess of personal casualty gains) unless the loss is caused by a federally declared disaster. If you have a business, you can account for the loss of business property on Schedule C or other business return.   Please see this help article and this IRS webpage for more information.  

Yes, Alaska does follow the Secure Act 2.0 and allow rollovers from 529 plans to a Roth IRA.  Make sure if the Roth IRA is for the beneficiary, that the contribution is not entered in the recipient's tax return as a rollover contribution.    According to IRS Publication 970, qualified rollovers are not reported on your tax return. If you choose not to enter it in tax software, keep it in your records to show the IRS if needed.    Here's more detailed info on the Alaska 529 and IRS Pub. 970.   @BogeyGolfer13     

So, I was able to link Fidelity accounts and the forms that were available by 2/2/2026 were auto-import just fine. However, as new forms have become available those are not automatically auto-import. In fact, my both linked fidelity accounts are marked as "auto-import not available" I'm afraid that I need to delete the imported forms, unlink the Fidelity accounts, and do it again when all forms are available. This is tremendously unproductive. Does anyone have a solution to Fidelity forms are auto-import as new forms come available?
