What happened to the real-time tax estimator that used to show up as you were inputting information?

There used to be the ability to see what your estimated tax refund would be while using turbotax and I don't see it this year. Using Self-employed version if that helps.

TurboTax still shows it When you start the income and deductions and so on you should see it begin to populate.

It works just like last year with the refund or balance due monitor moving up or down as you enter your information for 2022. It will also include the state return(s) as you complete it. See the example below.

Click < or > to get the refund monitor to appear. You might also have to toggle off that “race mode” or click Review.
