For 2025, taxpayers filing Married Filing Jointly cannot contribute to a Roth IRA if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is over $236,000.   If you over-contributed to your Roth IRA, you have several options for how to handle the excess contribution. You can:   Withdraw the excess contribution plus earnings recharacterize the Roth IRA contribution as a traditional IRA contribution Apply the excess to next year  Or, remove only the excess contribution after your tax deadline See this TurboTax article for information on what do if you made too much to contribute to a Roth IRA.   See this TurboTax article for information on who can contribute to a Roth IRA, including details on income limits.

Once your return is filed, TurboTax has no control over the processing or the timing when the IRS releases your refund.    The IRS Where's My Refund site will not take into account the 5 days early, but if you signed up for the 5 Day Early product, you should receive your refund deposited 5 days prior to the date indicated by the IRS, assuming all conditions are met.   For more information click on the link below 5 Days Early Option   If you don't get your deposit 5 days early, there is a few reasons why that might happen.   Your refund was offset or differed from their estimated refund amount, bringing the refund amount below the minimum threshold or above the maximum. What is a refund offset? Your bank wouldn't accept RTP (Real Time Payments) or Same Day ACH deposits, preventing Intuit from depositing your refund 5 days ahead of when the IRS would have deposited your refund. The IRS didn't give Intuit 5 or more days of notice in advance. This stopped Intuit from meeting the 5 days early expectations. If TurboTax is unable to deliver the refund 5 days early, your order will be canceled and you won't be charged the 5-Day Early fee. You will receive a follow-up email with a refund and timing update, and if any cancellation is applicable.

If you want to make changes or add a document to a tax return that has already been filed and accepted by the taxing agency, you should follow these guidelines.  You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.  You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.  Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return.   The refund calculator will start new at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due  Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.  You have three years from the date you filed your return or two years after you paid the tax due (whichever is later) to file an amendment  Select your product below and follow the instructions.  Amend TurboTax Online  Amend TurboTax CD/Download

I took out $550K for a business venture and found I did not need it all so I returned $200K into my IRA before the 60 day rule.  Now I'm showing traditional excess contributions of $192,000 and it says to avoid a penalty I can withdraw these excess contributions before the due date of the return.  Other option is if I had withdrawn all or some of these contributions to enter that amount.  I don't understand what these excesses are or what to do to avoid a penalty and I don't want to take out more money.

Sounds like something got stuck. You can try these things:   Log Out Completely: Before doing anything else, click Sign Out in the TurboTax menu. Clear Cache and Cookies: This removes old, "corrupted" data that might be confusing the website. Use an Incognito (Private) Window: This is the most effective "quick fix" because it launches the browser without any saved history or extensions (like AdBlockers) that often interfere with tax forms. Check Pop-up Blockers: TurboTax often opens forms (like the 1099 PDF) or payment windows in a separate pop-up. Look at the right side of your address bar for a small icon with a "red X"—click it and select "Always allow pop-ups from Intuit." Restart the Browser: Close all open windows of your browser entirely and then reopen it.   Most TurboTax errors happen because the browser is trying to use an old "session" from a previous visit. By clearing the cache or using Incognito mode, you force the browser to establish a brand-new, secure connection with the Intuit servers.

You can check your TurboTax order details: On the Tax Home page, scroll down to the section for "Your tax returns & documents." Select View Order Details. Look for "Refund Advance" or "Credit Karma Money" listed under your payment and refund methods. If it’s not there, you likely selected a standard direct deposit or a different refund option.

If that's the case, you must have donated an absolute TON of stuff considering the AGI limitations and if you didn't donate any big-ticket items.

Are you sure your broker has released your forms? Brokerage Delays: While most forms arrive by January 31, many brokerages delay Consolidated 1099s (like the 1099-B) until mid-February due to complex reporting requirements. Availability: Your brokerage must specifically "release" the import file to TurboTax. If it isn’t ready, we recommend checking back. Connection Blocks: Active VPNs or aggressive Anti-Virus software can occasionally block the import feature between your bank and TurboTax. Try disabling them temporarily or switching to a different browser.   If you received a "Success" message but your data hasn't appeared in TurboTax, it is likely due to recent browser security updates regarding Local Network Access.   To fix this you need to allow TurboTax to securely retrieve your data through your browser settings: Locate the View Site Information icon (the "tune" or "lock" icon) on the far left of your address bar, just before the URL. Find Local Network Access in the dropdown menu. Toggle the switch to ON. Refresh the page and attempt your import again. If permissions aren't the issue, one of the following factors may be at play: Brokerage Delays: While most forms arrive by January 31, many brokerages delay Consolidated 1099s (like the 1099-B) until mid-February due to complex reporting requirements.

The Oklahoma add back is just for federal bonus depreciation.  Oklahoma does not allow accelerated depreciation, so it takes a regular depreciation deduction and requires that you "pay back" the accelerated deduction.  If you've been depreciating the property since 2011 you should have no add back of depreciation at all for this year.

This is EXTREMELY confusing!! So even though it says I have to print and mail a paper, you are now saying I may not have to mail the paper if there were no other documents attached???  * And how come this have never come up in past years??? Everything was absolutely fine last year and no extra papers were needed to be printed or mailed.  please advise further information.  This is very odd that only this year all of us are having this issue!
