Thank you for the response, @DianeW777  This is very helpful.  I have the desktop version and looking at the forms, the gain does appear to flow to all of the appropriate locations.  It is shown on Form 4797 (Line 7), Schedule D Tax Worksheet (line 22), and Unrecap 1250 Gain Worksheet (line 18).  My AGI is increased by the amount of the gain and the tax is calculated considering the gain as ordinary income (as it should be since it is recapture of depreciation taken over the years).   The problem comes in when I check the "Final K-1" box.  I then get error messages that require me to enter a lot of sales information.  I do not have these specifics since my portion of the gain is reported directly on my individual K-1.  I entered my best estimation of this information just to see what would happen and it duplicates (and double taxes) the gain.  Is this a glitch in the TurboTax error system?  The only way I can get it to let me file is to uncheck the "Final K-1" box, which is not technically accurate, although I do believe the tax is calculated correctly.

@Mesachi  I did see that already, thank you. I would just really like things to be as they should be. Their quality assurance is failing. I am also someone who doesn't expect to owe any taxes, but I will still like the peace of mind of filing an extension. I never have such a tight deadline, but an employer from last year failed to send me my W2 until late last month. I just want to be able to work and then finish filing my taxes when I am not trying to meet deadlines for my clients.

I as someone who did it can assure you it'll only file an extension, but also that you can workaround by making a second account and doing the return tool so there's no risk of accidentally submitting your "nonexistent on that account" returns

I was able to confirm that it won't file your taxes by taking the risk, but I also found that if you're worried you can make a second intuit account then do the extension tool from that acct to be absolutely safe

Easy Extension is not a "separate website". It is simply a URL on the TurboTax website and you are logged right back into the software when you click the button to file an extension. It is literally the same website.   I don't want to  feel uncertain when I'm submitting the extension, and I don't want to have to go elsewhere. TurboTax is supposed to make painstaking tasks a little bit easier, but this scenario is a pain, doesn't instill confidence, and the repetitious incorrect support responses are abysmally disappointing.  I have avoided stopping use of TurboTax for so long because all of my information transfers over each year, but it's starting to feel like a ball and chain more than an easy, innovative software as a service. PLEASE do better!
