It depends on the dates that you lived in IL. You are a resident of Illinois if you were domiciled in Illinois for the entire tax year. If you didn’t live in Illinois for the entire year of 2025, you will file a part-year resident return.    Refer to the Illinois Department of Revenue website Who must file an Illinois tax return? for more information.   Please visit this TurboTax Help articles How do I file a part-year state return? for more information.

One reason may be that the limits are prorated depending on the number of months you were covered by an High-Deductible Health Plan (HDHP).   Another reason may be that you didn’t complete the HDHP interview section in TurboTax to certify your enrollment in a high-deductible health plan. If you don’t go through that section, your contribution will be added back into your taxable income, and it will be treated as an excess contribution.   Refer to the TurboTax Help articles Where do I enter my HSA distribution?, What is a health savings account (HSA)?,  What Is the IRS Form 8889? and Why am I showing an excess HSA contribution? for additional information.

Hello there,   I am using TurboxTax 2025. After I completed all inputs, I got a warning saying I overpaid deferral retirement plan by $1. After some trials, I believe it should be due to precision errors in TurboxTax .   I have two W2 forms this year. Both of them has values in box 12 with code D. The amount in both forms end up with .5, so I guess TurboxTax first rounds up the amount for each W2 and them sum the amount from them. I already tried deducting $0.5 from one W2 and adding $0.5 to another W2 to see if the guess is right, and then I see the warning disappeared, so the precision error is most likely the cause.   Can you help me to fix the issue? I don't think I should update W2 amount to work around the issue, as this will leads to incorrect reporting my W2.   Thanks

TurboTax doesn't allow me to take the LLC. My child is a graduate student. I input Form 1098-T and answered the questions on the screen "People wks(child name)" Part II, #1-5 all YES, #6 NO, and #7 Yes.  But, these answered are not exactly flowing to the screen "Student Info Wk" Part II. And it says on Part III #2 checked NO and says "Did not attend eligible educational institution. Courses not part of postsecondary degree or program to acquire job skills." I tried so many different ways not to override, but the only way to take LLC is to override (which it will prevent me from e-filing). How can I take the LLC without overrides? Thanks!

You can enter multiple 1099-INT forms from the same bank by combining the totals from each box into one entry or you can add them separately. If you add them separately, just click on Add Investments and continue through the screens to select another 1099-INT form after you add the first one.   Refer to the TurboTax article Where do I enter Form 1099-INT? for navigation instructions.  Review Filing Tax Form 1099-INT: Interest Income for more information.

Unfortunately no I've called the number and can't actually speak with a person it's all automated, I did call another number and was able to make an appointment to go in to the office (which is around 1.5 hours away from!) And verify in person. I have an appt on Thursday. I had a call back from turbotax, to speak with someone, I was highly and I mean highly disappointed, #1 he barely understood what I was telling him, #2 he read what seemed like it was straight off a google search, I know because I'd already Googled it myself and almost word for word is what he had read me. And I paid extra for their help while doing my taxes!!! But thanks for the reply.

@MoralesAdan890  asked:  "How can I track a refund for year 2022?" Have you not checked on it in the last 3 years, or is there more to the story?   In any case, if it's a Federal tax refund, you would have to start by phoning the IRS to see if a 2022 refund was approved and sent, and if sent, where it was sent.   If a state tax refund, you would need to phone the relevant state tax agency.   IRS: 800-829-1040 (7AM-7 PM local time) Monday-Friday

I am reporting my Medicare premium as a self-employed person on Schedule 1, Line 10.  The premium also appears on Form 1040 Line 6 (Social Security Benefits Worksheet), on Line B, but I think that's okay because it doesn't really affect the numbers.    My question is, is it okay to still include them on line 6 where it asks for Schedule 1 information which includes Line 15, deductible part of self-employment tax, and Line 17, self-employed health insurance deductions, or is that double-dipping?

Thank you.  As long as you have not filed, you can go back and make any changes.   If your return interview is closed, here's how to open it back up:     At the Tax Home look for a link "Add a State."   That doesn't really add one, but will open the return interview back up.
There is an Asterix (*) sign beside the $ value in line number 13 on form 8606. But Turbo tax is not showing the breakdown for calculations.

Hi All! I'm in the same boat.  I filed my FED and NYS returns on Feb 2nd.  The FED accepted my return same day, NYS accepted the return the next day Feb 3rd.   Received my FED return on Feb 11th.    Looks like NYS was late in processing processing changes into their systems, causing the delays.  At least that's the reason stated in the FOX5NY news story I linked below.  I have a different theory... the longer they delay the refunds the more money they make on the interest float.  Just basic accounting.  Now ask me if I'm shocked...

You cannot report 2021 and 2023 income in a 2025 return.   If you are trying to report income from 2021 and 2023, that would take the desktop software for each of those years. Did you previously file a 2021 return and a 2023 return and didn't add those W-2s, or is that what you are wanting to do now?   Please explain your situation, but don't post any personal info in this public Internet forum.   And what kind of "ID number" are you referring to?   Is it an EIN (the employer's tax number?)

My spouse deposited $7000 in a Traditional IRA in 2024 and got a full deduction. So Form 8606 was not generated for her on the 2024 tax return. She deposited $7000 in traditional IRA in 2025 and did a backdoor ROTH conversion. The form 8606 that got generated should have shown $0 as non taxable amount. But it is showing a value of $3808 as taxable amount which is wrong. How do I correct this in the 2025 tax return in Turbo Tax?
