Turbo Tax overrides 2025 data on 1099-DIV input fields with 2024 1099-DIV values during updates

When checking my income input prior to moving to deductions, I found incorrect data in my 1099-DIV boxes 1, 1a, and 5 for 2025.  If it was just a single error, I would have concluded I fat-fingered it.  I corrected all 3 fields, check the other data input for the 1099-DIV and pressed on.  When I was forced to install updates a couple of days later, I found the same erroneous data in my 2025 1099-DIV fields.  I then noticed that they were the exact same values as those imported from my 2024 return.  I suspect the same error occurred for Box 7 (foreign tax paid) entry, as that value did not change from last year.

 

This is the 1st time I've noticed a bug like this in Turbo Tax. Has anyone else encountered this issue? 

 

If so, did you find a remedy?  I've renamed the Receiver's name to the full formal listing on the 1099-DIV form, in lieu of the abbreviated version I've been using for years.
