At the finish line for my taxes, but it would not allow me to input my IRA earnings. Said something to the effect they would be updating or something. Whats up with that?

Earnings? You mean you took a distribution or withdrawal? Did you get a 1099R? That section won’t be ready until January 21.

i.e.......ignore the "Finish Line".

Only you know if you have sources of income that you have not entered yet.

If you have retirement income, or any other income type you have not entered yet....then,,..,Do Not file until you've entered it all.

Yes, not all areas of the tax software are ready for entry of $$ yet. Wait until you have ALL your tax forms from the various issuers they come form every year....then in early-to-mid February, make sure all your income $$ are entered. Then run thru the Deductions&Credits area to make sure you've covered everything that might reduce your taxable income. THEN go thru the error checks & State sections before filing.

Do Not file before mid-February (First of March is safer)
