I am being forced to upgrade because of "Schedule 2, Additional Taxes"

dylanders — Mon, 02 Mar 2026 21:02:04 GMT

I checked and in the Tax summary, there was nothing in it. I also attempted to locate a 1040 and there was no 1040 on my tax return stuff. Don't want an upgrade that isn't necessary.

A 1040 is the tax return form you prepare here to send to the IRS. If you start entering data in this software you are preparing a Form 1040. Please look at it so you will know what you are sending to the IRS:

@dylanders This is what Schedule 2 looks like:

When you preview your 1040 and Schedule 2----what do you see on Schedule 2?

Okay, but the additional taxes is empty in the tax summary and it wants me to pay to do the Print Center. Shouldn't need to pay for something if it isn't even listed on there.

@dylanders You do not have to pay to use the Preview 1040 option. Did you click the link provided to you to see how to preview Form 1040 and Schedules 1, 2 or 3?
