Is there a way to see IRS instructions for a particular form or schedule inside of TurboTax desktop or are the instructions only available outside of TurboTax? If available inside of TT, how do I access? TIA.
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
Sometimes, TTX provides some links to some brief instructions.....but the tax software is intended to be done using an interview, and then the software provides the proper calculations.
The main difference between Online & Desktop software is that in Desktop, you can switch to the forms to see what's in them ....but entering $$ directly on the forms can lead to MAJOR software errors, so following the interview is critical.

IRS instructions for various 2022 Federal forms can be found on the IRS's web page:
Forms & Instructions | Internal Revenue Service (irs.gov)
If brief instructions are available inside TT, how are those instructions accessed?? Link will appear?
There may be extracts of instructions in TurboTax.
The full instructions on each form are available on the IRS website.
Within TurboTax software, there is a blue colored link alongside many menu items that you can click on
Either a "?" or a "Learn More"
