You can file an extension, which will allow you to file until October 15, 2026.   This is an extension to file your tax return, not an extension to pay your taxes. You must estimate your taxes due and pay them by April 15, 2026 to avoid penalties and interest.   You can use TurboTax to e-file an extension by clicking here.

I deleted form 8962 as stated using turbo tax online version. I went through the questions Health care and 1095-A questions/entries and no questions about HRA came up (retiree non-taxable). It is still calculated a PTC tax credit.  If you are able to this with turbo-tax this year, then your version of turbo-tax must be different than the online version that I am using or something else is going on.   Unfortunately, I am still not able to correct this.

I'm married with two children, all three are with me in the States. To my understanding in my situation, I need to expose my Polish income to IRS and pay tax on my worldwide income, but this income includes retirement plan, which as stated in article 21 (4) of US-Poland Tax Treaty should be treated as tax. Which to me means should be used as tax credit the same way as paid in Poland tax from Polish wages on my US tax return.

@user17737782451 it could take longer than 5 days if you elected to have your fees deducted from your refund, or you received an advance. Then the refund goes to a third-party bank to be split between you and TurboTax. How long this can delay your refund is unknown.  Another possibility is a bad routing and/or account number. Then the refund goes back to the IRS. An EO in 9/2025 restricts the IRS from issuing paper checks, so you may get a letter asking to correct the info provided. 

In 2025 I spent one week of May in the States and in 2024 in total it might have been around a month. I moved to the States on 29th of June. Therefore, my time in the States in 2025 was more than 183 days. 

You enter form 1099-MISC in the Wages and Income section of TurboTax, then Other Common Income, then Income from Form 1099-MISC. When you answer the questions in that section, indicate that you did not have a profit motive for the income, that it is not associated with you main job and you only receive the money in the current year. That way it won't be treated as self-employment income. 

Look at your Filing Instructions or the Federal Information Worksheet within your tax return PDF to see your specific tax return payment date.   Sign in to your TurboTax account. On the Tax Home page, scroll down to "Your tax returns & documents." Select the relevant tax year (e.g., 2025) and click Download/print return (PDF). Once you open the PDF, and Look for a section titled "Balance Due/Refund" or "Electronic Filing Instructions." It will list the amount you owe, the bank account used, and the "Date of Withdrawal" or "Requested Payment Date."  OR... Scroll down to the "Federal Information Worksheet", Part V (it will list your direct deposit or electronic funds withdrawal information);. Note: If you did not choose a specific date, TurboTax defaults to the tax deadline (April 15).   If you haven't "finished" the return process Scroll down to the bottom of the Tax Home page, and Click on "Add a State" (this is a trick to reopen the return... it doesn't really add a State) Click on Tax Tools, and then Click on Print Center (to view/print your forms).   If you paid directly through the IRS website rather than through TurboTax, you would need to check your IRS Online Account or your confirmation email from the IRS.

Thanks Mike. I guess I wasnt clear.  I sold the property last year so that is my question - how to make it happen? I should've explained that I receive a K-1. We are a 3 member LLC (taxed as partnership) and only owned the 1 property that was sold.  I has run losses that have been carried forward.  The 2025 K-1 has 9.a. Net Long Term Capital Gain to reflect the sale, but I don't see how I'm supposed to trigger the online program to release the loss carryforwards that turbotax has been accumulating.  I recall hearing that checking the box "I disposed of my interest this year" would cause that to happen. But I haven't disposed of the interest. We still have the LLC and will reinvest the cash. How do I do it?
