I don't know why you can't see past entry #50.  If you imported your transaction it could be a problem with the imported data.  Are you using TurboTax Online or TurboTax Desktop?     Instead of editing your entries, consider reporting summary totals instead of individual transactions.  To do so, while working in your return:     In the wages & income section, Select "Investments and Savings...."   On the page "Did you have investment income in 2025?"  Answer Yes, or If you've already started the section, click on "Add Investments" at the bottom of the screen On the page "Let's Import your tax info" click on "Enter a different way"  Select "Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds" on the page with "OK let's start with one investment type"  When asked "Which bank or brokerage is on our 1099-B?" enter the name of your or broker or mutual fund company, leave the other fields blank. Click Continue  Answer the next three or four questions  Answer Yes to "Did you buy every investment listed...." (unless you inherited or were gifted the funds)  Select "Sales Section Totals"  Locate your sales section totals on your 1099-B  Enter your Investment Sales Section Totals and repeat till you have entered for each category.  After entering all your sales section totals,  Look for "Now we'll help you upload your 1099-B since the IRS requires a copy" and follow the instructions,  or you can mail a paper copy of your 1099-B to the IRS.  If you want to mail, click on "How do I mail my statement".     Take a moment to double-check that your statements are complete. For each sale listed, there should be:   - A Description   - Date Acquired   - Date Sold   - Sales Price   - Cost Basis   - Gain or loss for each sale   - A based on how the sale was reported to you and the IRS   In some uncommon cases, there will be an adjustment code and adjustment amount.      NOTE: Any sales summaries that include only Box A or Box D sales, and which have no adjustments to gain/loss, do not need to be included on a statement mailed to the IRS.      Here's how to mail your statements:   If you are e-filing your tax return, then mail your statements along with Form 8453 to:     Internal Revenue Service  Attn: Shipping and Receiving, 0254  Receipt and Control Branch  Austin, TX 73344-0254 

@dhasap  What product fees are you being charged for?   You may be able to remove something if you haven't already paid.  You may or may not be in the correct product or could have added something on.   What product edition are you using (you can look in the top left corner to see.)   To check your fees, go to the left menu column and click on TAX TOOLS, then TOOLS. In the TOOLS window, choose the blue button MY FEES.   Or if you have a shopping cart up in the top right corner, does it display a popup with your fees?

Will reporting expenses on Schedule C as trader tax status [with gains on schedule D] reduce the amount I pay self employment taxes for other businesses for which I file schedule C that have a net profit?

Yes, TurboTax recognizes California’s new rule allowing up to $20,000 of military retirement income to be excluded from CA taxable income (2025–2029) for qualifying veterans with income under the AGI limits.   All you need to do is enter your 1099-R.      Where do I enter a 1099-R?   California - Retirement and Disability    

@ ik1710  If you have a VPN, then you might try without the VPN if you can safely do so; i.e., on your own private network and not at a public wi-fi place.   But you shouldn't be filing a tax return with public wi-fi anyway IMO.   EDITED 3/16/2026 at 8:14 PM Pacific to add more info.

When you sign into TurboTax, what is your e-file status?   How do I check my e-file status?   Once you submit your return in TurboTax Online, you'll see its status on the Tax Home screen of your account. We'll also send you emails letting you know when your e-file status changes.   You can visit the IRS Where's My Refund? site to check if your e-filed return has been received.
