It could take a few days, but what is the e-file status of your return, is it still pending?              How do I check my e-file status?    As long as your return is e-filed by 4/15/26 at midnight (your time), it is considered to be timely filed even if the IRS hasn't approved it yet.  The IRS gets bogged down near the tax deadline, so it often takes longer than usual for them to accept/reject returns.   If for some reason your return gets rejected, you have five days to correct the error and resubmit to avoid any penalties: What if I e-filed on time but my return got rejected after the filing deadline?

I'm having the same issue.  I chose the pay in 3 option and am hesitant to select it again since I've already accepted the File Now Pay later loan.  As the person stated earlier, I don't see where I have the option to change the date.

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large button labeled "Transmit my returns now".   After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

Thanks — I think there’s more nuance here. My RRSP deduction limit for 2025 is $0 (I moved to Canada in 2024), but CRA allows up to $2,000 in contributions without penalty. In my case: 2025 contributions: $1,992.34 (within the $2K buffer) Deduction claimed: $0 (all contributions carried forward) So this shouldn’t be treated as an excess contribution. The issue seems to be that TurboTax is forcing a deduction instead of allowing a $0 deduction with carryforward. Can TurboTax support: Deduction limit = $0 Deduction = $0 Contributions carried forward Thanks!

It's not a Turbo Tax issue.   This is reported as a "Known Issue" by IRS: QMIDs with the letters I and/or O are being rejected when submitted. Projected Resolution Date was moved last weekend to June 21, 2026.   I've posted information earlier in this thread about what apparently needs to be done. Taxpayers must wait to receive the LTR 12C as it contains a Control Number that is to be included on the Taxpayer's response. IRS has a published Workaround. Again please see what I've posted earlier. Or visit Known issues and solutions | Internal Revenue Service, select TY2025. A spreadsheet will open, and this may be sorted to show Form 5695 entries. I've included a screenshot of the info.  There is a Workaround described. It's not very user friendly. The Taxpayer must return a copy of the LTR 12C received from IRS. Leave the QMID(s) blank on the Form 5695.  Attach to return a "binary attachment". From what I've been able to understand this means a document. In this case, a document with information as instructed in the Workaround. The document begins with "Substantiate QMID". For each item on Form 5695 with a QMID, include: 1. QMID provided by the manufacturer 2. Cost associated 3. "The line reference and small description for each item of specified property placed into service in 2025."   The return can be sent via the link included in the LTR 12C, faxed or mailed. The Workaround states, "This will allow for the IRS to accept such returns electronically...."   We still do not have our refund. When I followed the Workaround and filed online at the IRS link in the LTR 12C I noticed our Account information had changed, indicating it was now being processed: "We have reviewed your return and any information we may have requested from you and are now processing your return. Any changes to the status of your refund, including any new refund date, will be reflected here when any new update is available."   Hope this helps.      

You have to print out the full return with all the forms and worksheets to see Schedule D etc.   Even though it shows up as income on the first page,if you have capital gains or qualified dividends the tax on line 16 is not taken from the tax table but is calculated separately from schedule D.  The tax will be calculated on the Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet.  It does not get filed with your return.    In the online version you need to save your return as a pdf file and include all worksheets to see it.   See this FAQ https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/forms/help/form-1040-line-11-amount-is-less-than-standard-irs-tax-table/00/25752   In the online version you need to save your return as a pdf file and include all worksheets to see it.   For the Desktop version you can switch to Forms Mode and open the worksheet to see it.  Click Forms in the upper right (upper left for Mac) and look through the list and open the Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet.   IRS Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet—Line 16 on 1040 instructions page 36.  And you will need the IRS Tax Tables starting on page 64 or the Tax Computation Worksheet on page 76. https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040gi.pdf

After manually filled in all the required information in the 1099R, it came up the RMD Q.  We did the RMD first (in March,2025) and then IRA to Roth IRA conversion (Dec, 2025).  Why did TurboTax treat the amount as normal contribution, not the conversion?  There is NO any Qs ask for the purpose of the contribution,  nor the conversion Q.  Can you please help how to trigger the Conversion?  Thanks! 

Check with your bank.   If the IRS shows it was processed, the refund was sent to the account shown on Form 1040.    Sometimes, if names don't match up exactly, deposits are sent to a clearing account which may cause a delay in reaching your account.
