Same issue here in my post: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/fed-and-state-filing-rejected-due-to-form-5695/00/3805944   Wild that they (TT) allow you to file knowing good and well its going to get rejected with a known TT issue with the 5695 form.

And....you say that you have applied for SSI and Social Security disability benefits---you do not say that you are receiving those benefits.   So there would be nothing to enter on a 2025 tax return about that at all.   When and if you receive SSI or Social Security disability, SSI is not entered on a tax return at all;  Social Security disability benefits will be reported on a SSA1099 every year in January and you can enter that on a tax return.  But if SSI and/or SSA1099 is your only income, you do not have to file a tax return unless you have a 1095A for marketplace health insurance.    If you receive Social Security disability and have other kinds of income in addition, like income from a job, investment income, etc etc. you may have to file and the SS could be taxable.

At last, an answer that worked!  I posted this question a month ago and received the answer that I was just SOL with the online edition, and that only the desktop edition allowed seeing/printing worksheets, which I knew was incorrect.  Thank you...

Applying for disability or receiving or not receiving disability, does not determine whether you are permanently disabled.  However, if you have a Dr's statement saying that you are permanently and totally disabled, then you would be considered permanently and totally disabled by IRS guidelines.       Permanent and Total Disability You are permanently and totally disabled if both 1 and 2 below apply. You can’t engage in any substantial gainful activity because of a physical or mental condition. A qualified physician determines that the condition has lasted or can be expected to last continuously for at least a year or can be expected to result in death. See Physician’s Statement, later.

Yes, you will be able to file both. The form 1040-X is available and the California (CA) amendment is ready also (see link provided by @JohnB5677). It's posted here for your convenience.   TurboTax provides a list of Tax form availability ‌for individual Federal and State returns forms that are‌ being revised. California (CA) Schedule X is available as well.   @roschi73 

For disabled adults:   There is an extra amount added to your standard deduction if you are legally blind.   Your federal return does not provide any other credits or deductions for saying you are disabled, with one possible exception.     There is a credit for the Elderly and Disabled which is so small that very few people benefit from it—-it has not been updated/increased by Congress for decades.   ELDERLY OR DISABLED CREDIT https://www.irs.gov/help/ita/do-i-qualify-for-the-credit-for-the-elderly-or-disabled   There are some states that provide various credits to elderly/disabled folks, so watch for that when you prepare your state return.   The states that I know of that have anything for elderly/disabled are AZ, CT, DE, IA, MO, ND, NJ, NY, VE.   There may be others.

If the software is not allowing the boxes to be blank and is requiring an amount, but the boxes on your original Form 1099-NEC are blank, first, ensure that those boxes are blank and do not have any autofilled zeros.   If you still receive an error message after clearing any autofilled zeros, then try inputting 0 as the amount, or 0.00.   Taking the above steps should clear the error message requiring an entry in Boxes 5, or 6.

Did you choose to pay your TurboTax fees by having the fees deducted from your federal refund instead of paying upfront with your own credit or debit card?   If you made that choice, then your refund goes first to the third party bank.  That bank takes out your fees, pays TT for you, keeps the $40 ($45 in CA) refund processing fee for itself, and sends the rest of the refund to your account.   Santa Barbara Tax Products Group, LLC  (SBTPG) is the bank that handles the Refund Processing Service when you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your refund. This option also has an additional charge from the bank that processes the transaction.  You can contact them SBTPG, toll-free, at 1-877-908-7228 or go to their secure website www.sbtpg.com        How can I see my TurboTax  fees?    https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/intuit-account-billing/review-fees-turbotax-online/L1XnIzgzg_US_en_US?uid=m682vq7k   What is Refund Processing Service?
