  You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.    https://myturbotax.intuit.com/   Start a 2025 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/01/27010     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/save-2021-turbotax-online-return-pdf/L8dHfRkpT_US_en_US?uid=m5y4ch1y   Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx Account Recovery   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US?uid=ll5g6zcx   Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.     https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/find-last-year-tax-data-file-tax-file-computer/L0XJvPaJr_US_en_US   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/data-systems/find-tax-data-file-mac/L4VNGm33S_US_en_US?uid=m6guhab0   You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

If the IRS posted a Transaction Code 460 to your account, it means an Extension of Time for Filing has been recorded. It could be showing a later date based on when the transaction code was input. If a TC 460 was entered in error, they would post TC 462 to correct the error.   See this link for more information about IRS transaction codes.   @rainbowturtle 

This conversation is appearing in the US user Community. If you are a user of the Canadian version of TurboTax, you may wish to access the Canadian Community and participate in those discussions.    If you are filing a US return, you can claim charitable deductions to US-based charities.    A Canadian citizen residing in the U.S. typically files Form 1040 (U.S. Individual Income Tax Return) as a tax resident to report worldwide income, or 1040-NR if a non-resident alien. They must also report foreign financial assets (FBAR) and may need to file a final Canadian departure return, potentially followed by non-resident tax returns if they still have Canadian income sources.   For U.S. Residents Reporting Canadian RRSPs:   Use the "Foreign Tax Credit" section to report RRSP income and claim credits for Canadian taxes paid. Report RRSP withdrawals, dividends, and earnings under the "Retirement Plans" section. It is crucial to use the appropriate exchange rates for the date of distribution.   The Canada-U.S. Tax Treaty (Article XVIII) treats RRSPs as tax-deferred accounts, meaning reinvested dividends are not taxed annually as they would be in a Canadian TFSA. You must properly declare the tax-deferred status of your RRSP on your U.S. tax return to maintain this advantage. While reinvested dividends are deferred, actual withdrawals from your RRSP are fully taxable as ordinary income in the U.S.    Some U.S. states (notably California) do not recognize the Canada-U.S. tax treaty and may tax the reinvested dividends annually, even if the federal government does not.   See this discussion on a related topic.   @user17766499932 

If you don’t respond to the IRS letter you would receive a check but about 8 weeks later. This is from the TurboTax site.  IRS Phasing Out Checks:The IRS is phasing out paper checks, encouraging electronic payments to reduce delays. If You Don't Provide Bank Info: If you file without entering bank information, you may receive IRS Notice CP53E, which lets you either provide info for direct deposit or ignore it to receive a check, often leading to a 6-week delay. 

If you only want to remove the e-file fee, to avoid the $25-$30+ state e-file fee in TurboTax desktop or online, switch from e-filing to mailing your return. In the "File" section, choose to change your filing method to "File by mail" for the state. This allows you to print the forms (often requiring Adobe Reader). Back up from the step where it is prompting you to pay, or choose File again to restart the File section.   If you have no filing requirement for the state, you can delete the state return in TurboTax Online as long as you haven't paid:   Open or continue your return. Select State Taxes from Tax Home. On the Status of your state returns screen, select the trash can icon next to your state, then select Delete.   If you’ve already paid your state fees, you can’t delete your return, but you can start over by selecting Start Over next to your state return on the Status of your state returns screen.    

Again, thank you for the reply and information. However, I am told that they never reached the  "Nondependent student information summary" screen to be able to edit and finish your instructions. Is there another way they can get to this screen and be able to access the expenses screen? They said they went through the questions multiple times to ensure that they were answering correctly but still did not get to the nondependent student information summary.

Is it possible that your form is showing zero due because you have already accounted for payment of the additional amount due on the Illinois Form 1040-X?   In order for us to troubleshoot this issue, you could send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions for TurboTax Desktop users:   From the black bar at the top of your screen, select Online Click Send Tax File to Agent Click Send on the message that pops up TurboTax will create a "sanitized" copy of your return information with no personal info Post the full token number here in this thread   Otherwise, for further assistance with this issue, see this help article for instructions on how to contact TurboTax customer support .   @Club1820 

My Federal marginal tax rate is 22%. My State marginal tax rate is 4.5% If I opt for Federal Standard Deduction, I will pay $484 less in Federal, but $688.50 more in state taxes. So it creates an incentive to itemize even though I'm itemizing less than the Federal standard deduction.   Assuming I increase my state withholdings, my Federal itemized deductions would increase to above the standard deduction. Now I'm leaving nothing on the table. However, let's assume I receive it all back from the state in the form of a state tax refund.   I will receive a 1099G which could become taxable income at the federal level since I itemized. When I file in 2028, TurboTax will need to complete the "State and Local Income Tax Refund Worksheet" (apologies called it the 1099G worksheet). This worksheet appears to give you the benefit of the standard deduction (line 7C & 7D in 2025) in case your state tax return brings you below that level.    I assume there are a lot of people who accidently itemize including their state income taxes on the federal, get a refund, and in effect take the standard deduction after they complete the "State and Local Income Tax Refund Worksheet"?     

It depends. Older, native Intel-based apps may not launch or function properly on the new Tahoe architecture.  Some Users running macOS Tahoe 26.2+ have reported that older versions of TurboTax (such as 2022) will not open, sometimes resulting in a "don't localize" error.   Please also see this TurboTax help article for troubleshooting steps for the Mac version. For tax years 2023 and later, you could use the TurboTax Online version in a browser instead; however, 2022 is not supported in TurboTax Online after April 15, 2026, since it is past the statute expiration date to file an amended return for a refund for most timely filed 2022 returns.   If you have already tried all of the troubleshooting steps, I recommend that you contact TurboTax customer support for further assistance. Thank you @baldietax for weighing in.   See here for a discussion of a similar issue.    @LickyMC
