Thank you for providing a token. When reviewing your tax return the AGI carried to the Connecticut (CT) return is the same as the federal AGI. That figure is used to calculate the tax on the Tax Calculation Schedule (CT1040TCS) and the tax is accurate. There is an increase to the state tax liability from Table C and Table B (see the link below). CT Tax Calculation Schedules and Tables This provides a refund on the CT tax return after applying your CT withholding from your W-2.    From the left rail menu in TurboTax Online, select Tax Tools (You may have to scroll down on the left rail menu.) Select Tax Tools On the drop-down select Tools On the pop-up menu titled “Tools Center”, select View Tax Summary  On the left sidebar, select Preview my 1040 and Preview my CT For TurboTax Desktop, change to 'Forms' and review the forms    You have access to all forms when you choose to print your return in TurboTax Online/Mobile.  However you are required to pay before printing, but do not have to file until you are ready. Can I print a copy of my return in TurboTax Online before filing? If you are using TurboTax Desktop you can switch to Forms and review all forms and worksheets.   @claudinend [Edited: 04/16/2026 | 8:53 AM PST]

Your date of payment stays valid.  It may take the IRS up to 10 days to debit your account during this time of the tax season.   Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 888-353-4537 to inquire about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling.

If you had excess contributions that you did not withdraw in time, then it is likely that the 5329 was automatically generated by TurboTax.   If you have the desktop product, go look for Forms on the upper right, then the list of forms on your return will appear on the left. You can scroll down to the 5329 and view it.   If you are using the Online product, you can't actually see the form, but you can see the list of forms by going to Tax Tools and the left, then under that Tools, then back in the center Delete a Form. You don't want to actually delete a form, but this will let you see the list of forms on your return.

you should get a notice explaining the discrepancy, but it might not come for more than a week. if it's not an offset, then only the taxiing authorities can explain why. TurboTax gets no updates once your return is accepted. 

If you are seeing a Smart Check message asking you to enter QBI At Risk Op Loss, be aware that there are several lines on this section of Schedule C that you need to complete. It may appear that the software is in a loop, but if you keep entering zeros, you will eventually move onto another topic or finish the review process.   Your other option is to go to Schedule C and edit the carryover topic under Uncommon Situations. Check the box that you have At-Risk Carryovers and follow the interview. Again, you may enter zeroes on all lines or you may have information from your prior year return that does need to be entered. When you're finished, run Review again.

Your parents already put your SSN into the system, so that e-filing will not work for you.  Waiting for their amended return to be processed will not help you. You can print, sign and date your own return in ink, and file it by mail, or you can try getting an IP PIN and see if you can e-file.   GET IP pin in order to e-file if your SSN was claimed on another return   https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-takes-steps-to-help-prevent-refund-delays-by-accepting-duplicate-dependent-returns-with-an-ip-pin-for-2025-filing-season-taxpayers-encouraged-to-sign-up-soon-for-ip-pin-online-account     https://www.irs.gov/identity-theft-fraud-scams/get-an-identity-protection-pin      

Things you can try are:   Select Resend verification code to request another code. Make sure you leave the TurboTax window open, as closing it will invalidate the code. Open another tab or window or use a different browser to check your email for the code. If you're using a mobile device, it's okay to open your email app or another tab in your browser. Just keep TurboTax open in the background and return when you've got your code. If you still have issues, you can contact us.   What if I'm having trouble with my filing verification code?

The rejection was from the IRS.  It is possible the IRS does not have your 2024 AGI linked to your Social Security number in their database Try entering a 0 (zero) for the 2024 AGI and e-file the 2025 tax return again.
