Apparently from others who had the same complaint/problem as i did, your program defaults to 'yes' and your review doesn't catch it because if the default. It should have been fixed. I will not use Turbo Tax in the future. You should issue refunds. What a disappointment and grave error.

So we are not talking about excess deferrals, we are talking about an excess distribution. Does that make sense

Yes, if you have previous carryover losses, these will offset the gains from this year and the remaining losses will carry over.

My test (Missouri resident but working in Arkansas) shows the correct Arkansas tax on the AR1000NR, as well as the correct credit on the MO-CR, line 11.
As I was doing the Missouri interview, I noticed a number of questions that could affect the Missouri credit.
There should be a screen tilted "Out of State Tax Credit Summary". It should show a row with AR under state. You should click Edit for AR and follow through the sub-interview.
You will be asked about income from Arkansas - presumably TurboTax has already filled in the amount from your Arkansas return, and several other questions. In these screens, you have the opportunity to accidently set your Arkansas tax paid to zero (killing your MO-CR tax credit.
Anyway, go back to the Missouri interview, and pay attention to the questions about Arkansas.

You can answer "no" since you had no digital asset transactions in 2025.

Thank you, this is very helpful. On #2 - I called both HSA custodians (UMB for my wife's account and Fidelity for mine). Neither will calculate the earnings because it's been more than a year since the excess contribution. I've called multiple times and gotten different answers each time. I escalated to a UMB supervisor who is supposed to call back in 2-3 days, but I'm not confident they'll help. Two follow-up questions: 1. Is there a way to calculate the NIA myself? I believe the IRS formula is: NIA = Excess Contribution x (Adjusted Closing Balance - Adjusted Opening Balance) / Adjusted Opening Balance. If so, what time period do I use for the opening and closing balances given that the April 15 deadline has passed? 2. Given that the deadline has passed and I'll be paying the 6% excise tax on Form 5329 anyway, do I still need to withdraw the earnings along with the $375 excess? Or does the 6% penalty replace the earnings withdrawal requirement for late removals? I've seen conflicting guidance on this point.

Try these to see if these will work.
1. Check the "Carryover" Worksheets
Deleting Form 5329 directly rarely works because the software is pulling the data from a hidden worksheet.
Go to Forms Mode (top right on Desktop versions).
Look for a document titled IRA Contribution Worksheet or Retirement Plan Carryover Worksheet.
Search for a line item labeled "Excess contributions from prior years" or "2024 excess contribution."
If there is a value there, manually change it to 0 on that worksheet rather than trying to delete the 5329 form itself.
2. Use the "Step-by-Step" Interview (The "Clean Sweep" Method)
Sometimes the software needs a manual "No" to overwrite the imported data. Follow this path:
Navigate to Federal > Deductions & Credits.
Find Retirement and Investments > Traditional and Roth IRA Contributions.
Even if you didn't contribute in 2025, click Start/Revisit
Select the type of IRA you had the issue with (usually Roth).
Proceed through the screens until you reach a question that asks: "Did you have any excess contributions before 2025?"
Even if it shows a number, toggle it to Yes, then on the following screen, ensure the "Total Excess Contributions for 2024" is set to $0.
3. The "Delete and Rebuild" (Last Resort)
If the form keeps regenerating, it’s likely because there is a 1099-R or a specific "Information Worksheet" flagging it.
Go to the forms mode. Delete Form 5329 and any associated IRA Contribution Worksheets.
Immediately Save and Exit: Close the program entirely and reopen it.
Re-enter IRA Info: Go back through the "Deductions & Credits" section for IRAs. By starting the section fresh without the old worksheet attached, the software should stop assuming there’s a carryover.

My 2025 W2 shows State wages to NJ in box 16 at approx 75% of total wages but no State Income Tax WH. Also shows 100% of my wages on another copy of W2 as in box 16 as NY State with Taxes WH to NY. I think I should only file NY State tax return as a statutory resident for 2025 as I rented an apartment in NYC. Since my ER did NOT withhold any NJ State taxes and I really didn't live at my NJ Parent's home in 2025, do I have to file anything in NJ?

Hi Thank you! But what if there are a lot of items, then the list will be super long! Two donations, every time with a lot of items. Any advice? Thank you very much!

I have stock gains across various accounts around 18k for 2025.I have carryover losses from previous years in the amount of 3k.However,instaed of showing gains from stocks,TT is calculating losses for 2025 in the amount of 21k instead of gain of 15k I have losses from previous years > 30k.Does the losses from previous years offset with the gains from this year and the remaining lossses carry over? I am really confused why TT is showing loss this year instead of gains unless previous year looses offset with the gains

Generally, if you receive a Form 1099 for amounts that actually belong to another person or entity, you are considered a nominee recipient. You must file a Form 1099 with the IRS (the same type of Form 1099 you received). You must also furnish a Form 1099 to each of the other owners.
See this link to find the 1099 you need to file: IRS Forms & Publications.
File the new Form 1099 with Form 1096 (this is a transmittal for the 1099) by mailing to the Internal Revenue Service Center for your area (provided on the Form 1096).
On each new Form 1099, list yourself as the payer and the other owner, as the recipient. On Form 1096, list yourself as the nominee filer, not the original payer. The nominee is responsible for filing the subsequent Forms 1099 to show the amount allocable to each owner.
The forms filed with the IRS should be the red copy so if you don't have a color printer, go to the IRS website and order the forms.
The nominee process will allow you to enter only your portion of the gross proceeds on your TurboTax return.

This issue often occurs due to discrepancy between the state and zip code or a failure to import state data.
To fix it, try the following steps:
Sign in to your account, go to the Federal section, then click on Wages and Income, find the specific institution's form in the error, and click edit to verify the recipient state is correctly entered.
Make sure the 2-letter state abbreviation matches the zip code.
If editing fails, delete the form and manually enter the data again instead of importing it.
To delete the form, follow the next steps:
Sign in and open your return.
Select Tax Tools in the left menu, then click Tools.
Select Delete a form.
Click Delete next to the form, schedule, or worksheet.
Follow the instructions to confirm deletion.

I am a little confused about using the word "Rollover" here because two directions are involved. 1. in Early Sept. they distributed my RMD amount from my 403b into my short term checking account 2. They then made a a second distribution of the same amount as the first, 4 days later (an error) 3. After months of begging them to reverse the second transaction, they did that, but in January 2026. They took that whole amount out of my short term checking account and redeposited it into my 403b. The net effect was to boost my 2025 income by over $30,500 in Sept. 2025, and then decimate my checking account in January with a direct transfer from it into the 403b account. So my 1099R for 2025 includes the extra amount although it has since been reversed transferred into the 403b. So I think I kind of get the idea of not including the whole 1099R but only the RMD and designating as W2 but not quite understanding. Can you give me more specifics? (by the way it will have to be an amended return at this point.) Thanks so much for your help, both of you, Dave Owen
