When I helped my brother file his last week...there is an initial page you have to accept that lets TTX file for you....but the subsequent several pages acceptances, and one for letting TTX/Intuit use your data for various purposes, and incessant prompts for add-ons (for extra fees) can all be skipped.  We skipped all but the first one.   Filed in the morning.  Fed and state (GA) accepted by evening.

@scherejona    Just as you would for any other Charity. After entering the DAF name, you indicate what you actually contributed to the DOAV   IF it was Money, you select that. If it was shares of stock or Mutual funds, you indicate "Items" then the next page you can indicate it was stock. __________________ For stock/Mutual Fund donations, you probably get a form 8283 from the DAF.  The software will fill one out for you as you answer the various follow-up questions.   Just keep the DAF form 8283 that you received...in your tax folder for 2025 in case any questions crop up from the IRS anytime in the next few years.   Remember that any future donations you advise to be made OUT of the DAF .....you can not claim those as charity donations, since you already claimed the donation to the DAF.  

Tried clearing cookies and cache for the browser; then a fresh login. Since that didn't fix the issue, I tried using a different browser on a different computer that had never accessed Intuit or TurboTax, but still get the watermarks, so the answer given was a good try, but incorrect. I will wait a few days and try again on a 3rd computer and different browser. If the amount is correct even with the watermark still in place, I don't really need the payment coupons as I have the IRS do a direct debit.

There is not a line number on the Illinois state tax return for Illinois adjusted gross income.   Line 4 reports Total Income. Line 9 reports Illinois Base Income. Line 11 reports Illinois Net Income.     For reference, here is a link to the 2024 Illinois Form IL-1040.  

@ejchien wrote: TurboTax, please also attach me to the incident for this form; I am also waiting to resubmit Hey @ejchien , I would not recommend relying on TT reading your request above.  Instead, I'd suggest logging into TT, click Help, get them to call you, and then ask to be notified when fixed.  I'll also be sure to update this post as well once I have any updates myself.

Yes, you can add Schedule E to your Form 1040 to report Rental Income and Expenses, or Royalty Income.     Use the information in the following TurboTax help article to get started:     Where do I enter income and expenses from a rental property?  

Yes you should. The Austin TX address is for paper documents which cannot be e-filed (this one cannot be faxed), while the Ogden UT address is for an additional copy that you are required to send (good news: this one can be faxed). 

If your spouse's Social Security number was entered incorrectly in TurboTax, you can go through the My Info or Personal Info section of your return to make the correction.     Look for the section about the spouse's information and edit that section.

We are having this same issue and cannot seem to get it resolved. We paid for child care from January-December of 2025, but it's asking if we paid for a 2024 child care expense in 2025 and then saying we don't qualify.
