Yeah, I was suppose to receive an email from her. Nothing. Can't access the two messages she left for me because - fix the problem of the chat immediately disappearing as soon as you file.  Also, keep getting an email that she sent me a message and even have a pop up when I log in. Nothing. This negates the whole experience I have had with Turbo Tax. Please tell me I'm not the only one with this problem. 

Using TurboTax, follow these steps:   Locate "Federal Taxes" or "Income": Look for the section titled Wages & Income.  Find "Interest and Dividends": Select the option for Dividends on 1099-DIV. Enter your 1099-DIV data: When you manually enter the form, look specifically for the field labeled Box 9 (Cash Liquidation Distributions).

Obviously turbo Tax has deleted nearly all of my past returns off of my computer. Some are saying this is due to updates that turbo Tax has done this year and in the past.  Everything had been fine until I went to transfer 2024 tax returns to 2025. Turbo Tax is where the blame lies for this I believe. I have been using turbo Tax for over 20 years. Those returns are not on my computer anymore. Very frustrating.

If you used TurboTax Canada TurboTax Do It Yourself (Online), you must open another return if the return that you want to delete is the last one that you worked on. If you have no other returns, then you'll need to start a blank return before you can delete it.   To start a new return, select “Start a New Return” from under “My Returns” in the bottom left corner. Once you have started your new return, you can select “View All Returns” from under “My Returns”. Then delete the unwanted return by clicking the small Trash Can next to it or “Delete” under the return’s name.  

Q. Do they mean claimed the 2025 payments in 2024 (prepaid college?). A.  No. They just want to know if this is your 1st year claiming a tuition credit, for that student.    Check that box. You will later be asked how many times it was claimed.  This is to prevent you from claiming the AOTC more than the allowed 4 times.    You are correct, it's poorly worded. It's more common than uncommon.
