Same exact thing happened to me.  Using Turbotax Premier 2025 locally on PC.  Updated today.  Last time I worked on our tax return was about a week and a half ago.  Now there is absolutely nothing!- Gone!, Zero, Zilch!!!  I spent multiple days working on this already!  It was saved locally to my computer.  The Turboxtax folder where it should be saved shows nothing.  A search of my whole computer and all hard drives shows nothing for any tax file.  This means it has deleted my 2024 return as well!  I just opened Turbotax 2024 and sure enough, there is no return to open for it either.  This is absolutely ridiculous for such a large company to mismanage and delete tax returns that include so much important fiduciary and personal information.  Intuit should be held accountable for this!!!  Every year the software has gotten worse but has still been just barely manageable.  Now, it is the final straw!  When you go and delete our previous returns, this creates a giant problem moving forward!!!

This is not the case - The question is asked early in the process when I add theproperty....and then from there I add depreciable assets and all the items I did to the home to sell it, from there. the line item is visible with the naming "Sold Rental Property" when I click edit it just takes me to the depreciable assets. from there - back to the Assets page with the"Sold Rental Property".  I don't even want to get into the discussion where TT told me to delete the rental property because I had no income in 2025! (Major flaw in TT)  

Yes, you can amend using TurboTax if you didn't originally file using TurboTax.  You will have to recreate the return, exactly as it appears on your original tax return.  You will then have to tell the program that you are filing by mail and then amend the return to add your LLC.  By telling the program you are filing by mail you are essentially "tricking" the program into thinking you file the return you created.   The process is easier with TurboTax Desktop software (in my opinion) but you can do it Desktop or Online.  

Have you reviewed your New York Home Mortgage Interest Worksheet?  You should see on Part 2, line 2 that the program has calculated your interest deduction using a $500,000 limitation instead of the $375,000 federal.  Line 1 shows the federal deduction which is calculated using a $375,000 limitation.  Line 2 should be more than line 1.  Where are you seeing that TurboTax is using $375,000 instead of $500,000?     If you are using TurboTax Online and won't to review your return, including worksheets, prior to filing:   While logged in and working on your return, click on Tax Tools From the drop down menu click on Print Center  Click on Print, save or preview this year's return On the next screen click on "Pay Now"  You may be prompted to "Go to My Info" if you need to add additional information Submit your payment information and you will be able to print your tax returns   Note, you must pay by credit card in order print or preview your preliminary return.  You will not be able to pay using your federal tax return.

It could be that your brokerage has not 'partnered' with TurboTax this year for importing, or your broker is under another name.     Remember that the IRS already has copies of all your 1099's and entering Category Summary Totals is acceptable in a tax return.   @rbw223 

There have been numerous Windows security updates recently that have made importing difficult this year.  Some 'fixes' are just too technical for the average user to want to try.    In the days before 'imports' became available, what we entered in our tax returns was Category Summary Totals.  Remember the IRS already has copies of all your 1099's and all they really want you to report is Gain/Loss, ST/LT.   Depending on what categories of transactions you have, that's all you need to do.  If you had a certain category (like Wash Sales), your Filing Instructions will tell you if you need to mail anything additional after Efiling.   Here's more info on Mailing Form 8949 for Summary Totals.   @crazyhorse1844       

Thank you for your reply.   I have followed the recommended steps and the error persists (line 4b on the Pen Ann IRA Wks is incorrect). After my first pass through your recommended steps didn't work, I deleted the 1099R and started over with a new one but got the same result.  I have confirmed that in Part I of the form, the date is now listed and the gross and federal amounts are there; the NY taxable amount is blank (box 16 on the 1099R is empty). In Part II, line 3 shows the correct amount but line 4b still shows the same incorrect amount.   In the process, I noticed some other (potential) anomalies:  There is only one worksheet and in Part I, the Payer's name and EIN match the payer for my spouse's pension.  The payer for my IRA is not indicated anywhere on the form.  Although I had indicated in the step-by-step that the IRA/SEP/SIMPLE was checked, it was not checked on the form itself; checking it manually had no effect. I appreciate any additional guidance.
