@dasrust    I ran into the same problem as you, but found another "work around". My best guess is that since we started our returns on desktop, it hid that download for desktop link from TurboTax online.   My workaround was to use/create a new TurboTax account (we used my spouse's account) and start filling via TurboTax online. I was able to download the desktop file after importing our crypto transactions. When opening the file in TurboTax desktop, I was able to confirm that the transactions did carry over and were present on the return.   I haven't finished filing (I have to go through everything else again) but I was able to generate a PDF of the return in it's current state and confirmed (again) that the crypto transactions and necessary forms were present as I expected.   Hope this helps

If you haven't filed your return yet, and you are using TurboTax Online, you can preview your tax return and related forms and worksheets so that you can see how your refund or balance due was calculated.    The dollar amount showing in the "refund meter" at the top of the screen may not always keep up with the latest entries you have made, especially if you have a slow internet connection or there is heavy traffic on the website.   Detailed calculation information in TurboTax Online can be found by navigating on the left side menu to Tax Tools > Tools > View Tax Summary > Preview My 1040 to access the Form 1040 Worksheet.    This worksheet provides the in-depth, step-by-step calculations for your tax liability.    If you are using the Online version, you will need to have paid for your product in order to see all of the worksheets.  

If TurboTax wants the date you sold your car that you use for your business and you did not sell it, you have to go back into the vehicle summary and confirm that you did not stop using your vehicle for business. Sometimes a box is mistakenly checked, that indicates that your vehicle was sold or your business stopped using it.   To do this, you can:   Go to your Business Income and Expense section of TurboTax Click on Start or update next to "Profit and Loss From Business". Click on Edit to the right of your business name Scroll down to Business Expenses - Business Vehicle expense and click on Start  Look for the question Are You Still Using Your Car for Business?" and select "Yes".   If you did stop using it, but didn't sell it, select "No" and enter the date you stopped using it for business See also: Business Use of Vehicles   Maximizing Tax Deductions for the Business Use of Your Car Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.

You will need to enter your license code when you are installing your program and before you can use your software.  The license code is a 16-character combination of letters and numbers (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX).     See the following TurboTax help article to help you find your code:   How do I find my license code for TurboTax Desktop?   @mark-a-ryales-naf 

Sometimes you need to clear your cache (that is, remove these temporary files) because a full or corrupted cache can cause problems in TurboTax.  You can try these steps if you are using the online version:   Clearing your Cache and Cookies Using a different browser Opening an Incognito Window If you are using TurboTax Desktop, you will need to correct your return and/or update your program by following the onscreen instructions.   If you continue having issues you can check some of our common solutions.  If your tax return can't be e-filed for some reason, TurboTax will let you know.   Please reach out again if your problem persists.

If you are filing married filing jointly and have a Form 1095-A, the IRS uses your combined Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI). This includes the total gross income of both spouses plus any tax-exempt interest, for the entire tax year to reconcile premium tax credits.   Please see this TurboTax tips article and this IRS webpage for more information about Form 1095-A.   Please see this help article for steps to enter Form 1095-A.  

Bonjour,   J'ai le même message qui m'empêche d'envoyer la déclaration du Québec. En plus ça concerne la déclaration de ma fille qui n'a pas d'enfant ! Et même en vidant la mémoire cache ça ne fonctionne pas. Et j'utilise également TurboImpot de bureau.  

No, you will need the actual QMID code that is specifically for your new windows. This is a new and separate requirement implemented by the  IRS in 2025 that proves that the manufacturer is specifically registered for the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit and that the product qualifies for the credit.   The IRS requires this Qualified Manufacturer Identification Number (QMID) for new windows to claim the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit.   The QMID code is a specific code that can be found on your manufacturer's documentation, itemized invoices, or the IRS Energy Credits Online (ECO) portal. You must enter the correct QMID for TurboTax to accept it.   If you do not have a QMID (Qualified Manufacturer ID) for your product, you can contact the manufacturer directly to request their 4-digit code. The QMID is assigned to the manufacturer, not the installer.    You can also try checking with your installer for it or it may be on your  "Manufacturer Certification Statement," which should list the necessary information for Form 5695, including your QMID.    Click here for Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit qualified manufacturer requirements Click here for What Is the IRS Form 5695?   Click here for Instructions for Form 5695 Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.
