Sorry, I have not had a chance verify. I'm pretty sure the only entry was the flow form the 1099-R issued by my brokerage, but will quadruple-check. Otherwise, I think it's a link error in TT from form 8889, line 12 to form 5329, line 47. Thanks again for the suggestion and I'll reply back after I've had to chance to check.

It depends. An amendment requires Form 1040-X and you can review the instruction in the link below. You may need to remove the correction, so TurboTax knows the original numbers and the corrected numbers.
Follow the instructions in the link below to obtain the necessary TurboTax Desktop products (2024 and 2023) if necessary.
The amendment can be completed using the steps below and if necessary you can use the IRS transcript for your original 2023 or 2024 tax return.

I appreciate the reply but I had already tried that way. Although I couldn't enter those taxes, TurboTax had already calculated the limit on the amount I could deduct. Thank you.

No. Plasma donation is unearned income. It could only be earned income if you are in the business of plasma donation, on a regular and continuous business basis. This is not income earned by you performing a service or sales of a product you created for resale. The IRS would not consider a plasma donation as an ongoing business concern.
Key elements:
A business allows you to deduct the costs necessary to obtain the income. The law explains that 'you must be engaged in the activity to produce a profit'. The test under IRS tax law is that you must show a profit three out of every five consecutive years to be considered a business.

If you haven't filed yet, sign in to your account and select Tax Home. Go to My Info section, click to your mailing address, and select Edit to fix it.
If you have already filed your return, you must wait until the IRS rejects it or accepts it.
If rejected, you can sign to your account and make the pertinent corrections in My Info section.
If accepted, and you use Direct Deposit for your refund, your money will be sent back to your bank account.
But if you choose that the IRS send you a paper check, then you must contact to the IRS as soon as you can to inform the issue, because the IRS might send it to the wrong address.

TurboTax automatically compares your itemized deductions against your standard deduction and selects the higher one. If the software suggests the standard deduction, it means it is providing you with a higher total deduction and, therefore, a larger potential refund than itemizing.
Some potential reasons why TurboTax is suggesting the standard deduction:
The IRS only allows you to deduct the portion of your medical expenses that exceeds 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). Even if your total itemized deductions (medical + others) are higher than the standard deduction, the deductible amount of your medical expenses might be less than your standard deduction for your filing status.
Your filing status. If you are Married Filing Separately (MFS), both spouses must either itemize or take the standard deduction. If your spouse takes the standard deduction, you must also.
You may have accidentally checked a box in the "Deductions & Credits" section electing to take the standard deduction despite having higher expenses.
To verify:
Go to the "Deductions & Credits" section in TurboTax.
Review the "Itemized vs. Standard" summary screen. It will show the exact breakdown of how your medical expenses were reduced by 7.5% of your AGI and compare it to the standard deduction.

The 5 digit code is any 5 digits you select when in the process of e-filing your tax return. It is Not an IRS, TurboTax or Intuit code. You do have to enter the 2024 AGI from the 2024 federal tax return, Form 1040 Line 11 before you can e-fie your tax return.

We exchanged one timeshare property (100% personal use) for another and got a credit for the entire initial purchase, which was reported on a 1099-S. I found where to input on TurboTax premium, but do I enter the closing costs for the original property or the second property? thanks!
