Hello, I don’t recall the codes, I did receive emails as my returns were rejected twice.  Both times it was due to me claiming my children not know their mothers had already claimed them when they weren’t supposed to for this year.  I have since correct my federal removing both my kids and it has been accepted.  However I cannot fix the state, turbo tax is not letting me even after I started over with state.   It’s also Washington State by the way.   thank you  Kole 

@MinhT1 Thank you for the response. Lastly, when labeling it under 1099-B, would it be a short term sale (short term-basis reported to IRS) every time I record it in my taxes? I'm aware that I have to post every one. Thank you again for taking the time to answer my question. Thank you. 

Remove it through the Business/Self‑Employment section Go to the left menu → Income & Expenses Scroll to Self‑employment income and expenses Click Edit next to your business Scroll down to Expenses Find Health Insurance Premiums Click Trash/Delete, or set the amount to $0

A capital loss usually comes from an investment sale entry in TurboTax. It could also come from a capital loss carryover from a previous year. Can you clarify better where you are seeing the loss so we can advise you better?

Did you buy the Desktop program from Amazon Or a code for the Online version?   This year several places are selling both.   Sounds like you bought the Desktop program but ended up using the Online version.    Did you download and install the Desktop program?  If you hadn’t paid the Online fees I could tell you how to switch to the Desktop program before paying.   But since you paid you will have to contact support.   Maybe they can refund you the Desktop program you didn’t use.   How to contact Turbo Tax https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/how-do-i-contact-turbotax/00/26991

It sounds like you received a notice from TurboTax that your Oregon return was accepted.    If you have not already done so (I am not sure what "we haven't received a return" refers to exactly), please look at Oregon Department of Revenue to check your refund status (again).    There is Contact Us info at the bottom of that page.   Note that we in the Community nor at TurboTax have any information about your return once we have received confirmation that the return was filed (this information should be in the email you received).

The cost basis is likely close to the value of the proceeds from the stock sales so your gain should be minimal.   When you enter your Form 1099-B reporting the stock sales, you will see an option that says the cost basis is incorrect or missing on my Form 1099-B. It is on the screen where you enter the proceeds and cost basis. If you check that box, TurboTax will allow you to either enter the correct cost basis or will offer to help you determine what it is and then enter it for you.   Since you are dealing with restricted stock units (RSU's), your W-2 form should list the value of them awarded to you as wage income. If you divide that income by the number of shares awarded, you will know the cost per share that you can multiply by the number of shares sold to determine their cost basis for entry on the Form 1099-B entry screen.  

We had this issue when entering multiple K-1 forms in TTD Windows. The summary worksheet would not accept the zipcode for personal info. We confirmed it was 5 digits there and on Personal Info. Going to the K-1 there is a checkbox that will allow the address to be removed. In error check you can enter it by hand. It accepted the fix and the error cleared. 

I had a similar situation. TT could not find my file in the C: drive, but did find it on my backup thumb drive. The only difference is that the thumb drive file system is FAT32 instead of NTFS file system on the C drive. You might try and copy the 2024 file to a FAT32 thumb drive and see if TT can find it there.

Check the characters: Max 35 characters No comma, period, apostrophe, slash The first 4 letters must match the EIN assignment - look at the top of the EIN confirmation letter. For example: The Smith Trust might be Smit at the top of the form. Use Smith Trust instead. If the EIN is recent, it may not be in the system yet, so you get a reject. @andymoler58
