In my case, Turbotax is showing a contribution by me that is within the limits of my HSA, but I have not made any contributions since I retired. My previous employer has continued to make a $500/yearly contribution which is documented on the W-2 that I have received for the past 2 years. My income from my previous employer is $0 on my W-2 while still having the $500 HSA contribution for the same 2 years. Turbotax completed Form 8889 with a full contribution by me and the $500 from previous employer which does not reflect the data I entered ($0) while proceeding through the questions. I am uncertain how to correct the entry on the Form 8889 or how the inaccurate information affects the Tax Return.  Additionally, I was required to submit a paper copy of my Tas Return.

You don't need to amend for that. The IRS has been adjusting returns for the missing taxable amount of SS on 1040/1040SR line 6b and reducing your refund or sending you a bill. That's been a common error this year. It's due to skipping the next screen about if you lived in a Foreign Country or answering it wrong. That's why it's important and good before you file to check your return line by line with last year and you might have seen that the taxable Social Security on line 6b was missing if it was taxable before. Then you could have questioned it.   And only up to 85% of SS can be taxable on 1040 line 6b.

After you entered your Social Security benefits reported on a SSA-1099 there was a following screen which asked if you lived in any of the foreign countries listed.  If you indicated Yes or skipped over this screen then none of your Social Security benefits were taxed on your federal tax return.  If you did not live in any of those foreign countries then the IRS is correct.

Y'a rien de réglé et je viens de perdre une déclaration car le compteur s'est mis à jour alors que j'avais changé de code de licence.   Je veux ravoir ma déclaration perdue et que le problème soit réglé.  C'est très frustrant, je devrai encore changer de code de licence, je ne peux pas commencer à appeler à chaque fois que j'essaie d'envoyer la déclaration, que ça ne fonctionne pas, et que je perde des licences parce que le compteur se met à jour.

Y'a rien de résolu.   En plus, je viens de perdre une déclaration car j'avais changé de code de licence entre temps, et en essayant d'envoyer la déclaration, ça a ajusté le compteur même si la déclaration avait déjà compté vu que j'avais envoyé le fédéral.   Je veux ravoir ma déclaration perdue pour laquelle j'ai payée, et je veux que ce problème se règle rapidement.  Une personne attend son remboursement et cette situation est ridicule.

This Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) page shows how to calculate the size of your home and work space: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-return/completing-a-tax-return/deductions-credits-expenses/line-22900-other-employment-expenses/work-space-home-expenses/work-space-use.html#h-2-1   It's for employment expenses, but the same calculations work for self-employment expenses.     

Did you figure it out???   same problem, first time this happens in 10 years, every year some new disaster with this software! imported 3 out of 19 slips. wtf? On another return i have its 200 slips, there better be a good explanation.
