did the marketplace issue a corrected 1095-A? then you enter nothing and you should be able to e-file. if not and you e-file it will probably be rejected. you'll have to mail your return with a copy of the letter.  make sure you retain a copy of the letter and use a tracking method for the return.  

there is a tax payment worksheet where you can enter this withholding. The issue you face is whether the iRS has a record of this. If not, most likely the IRS will disallow it. You should check the iRS records because even if you did not get anything showing the withholding, whoever withheld the taxes should have filed a form with the iRS- check the wage and income transcript  https://www.irs.gov/individuals/transcript-types-for-individuals-and-ways-to-order-them 

Try entering 0 for the AGI. The IRS might have processed your return later so the AGI didn't get entered in time.  Especially if you mailed it.  That works for most people. See, https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/rejections/help/what-if-i-entered-the-correct-agi-and-i-m-still-getting-an-e-file-reject/00/27031 How to correct the AGI in the Online version https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/agi/help/where-do-i-correct-my-agi-in-turbotax-online/00/26311 If you can’t get it to efile you will have to print and mail it. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/printing/help/how-do-i-print-and-mail-my-return-in-turbotax-online/00/26258 Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

Yes. You can go through the interview and remove the entries you've made. However, that may be tedious, so I recommend manually selecting to use the itemized deduction instead.   If you want to manually switch, here's how, from How do I change from the standard deduction to itemized (or vice-versa)?   "Go to the screen: Based on what you told us, [either Standard Deduction or Itemizing deductions] is right for you, and select Change my deduction. (Instead of using the link, you can also manually navigate to Federal > Deductions & credits > Deductions & credits Summary > Continue > If applicable, continue through any summaries> Now you will arrive at Itemizing/ standard deduction summary screen.) On the Which deduction do you want to take this year? popup, you'll see the dollar value of each deduction type. Select the type of deduction you want and Continue."

The $1,500 and $750 add-backs on your South Carolina returns are not errors. They are mandatory adjustments because South Carolina does not conform to the increased federal standard deduction amounts enacted by the federal One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) in mid-2025.  South Carolina uses your Federal Taxable Income as the starting point for its own tax calculations. Because your federal taxable income was reduced by a higher standard deduction than what South Carolina allows, you must "add back" the difference to reach the correct state taxable income.   See South Carolina Information Letter #26-4.  

Not everyone will see this option.  If none of your contribution can be deducted because your income is too high,  the full amount of your contribution will automatically be nondeductible.   To get to this point in the interview (from: How do I enter a backdoor Roth IRA conversion?), go to Deductions & Credits and scroll to the Traditional and Roth IRA Contributions section. Click Start.  On the screen, Tell us about your IRAs, check the Traditional IRA box and select Continue. After selecting that you contributed to a traditional IRA in 2025, you will be asked Is This a Repayment of a Retirement Distribution?, select No and select Continue. Enter the amount contributed and select Continue.. You will be asked Did you recharacterize any of the traditional IRA contributions for 2025 over to a Roth IRA contribution? Select No and Continue. Continue through the interview and answer the questions on the following screens. You will arrive at a screen labeled [Your name’s] Traditional IRAs, with a box labeled Deductible contributions elected non-deductible. Enter the amount you contributed. Select Continue. Note: If none of your contribution can be deducted, you'll see the message Based on what you've entered you don't qualify for an IRA deduction, and the full amount of your contribution will automatically be nondeductible.

Not sure where you saw a free upgrade to Premium---which is a paid version of online TurboTax.  You will need to sort this out with customer support.   No one in the user forum can resolve a billing issue.  If you have a question about your TurboTax fees or billing, make sure you use the word “billing” in your request for help.  Do not use the word “refund.”   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/contact-turbotax/L2y9ZKpQB_US_en_US?uid=m5s9l2vh
