Does turbotax online show me how much I owe or how much I might expect to be refunded as I enter data? All of previous years did this.

All of the last 5 years had a control in the top left that showed amount owed/refunded as I entered data such as W2, 1099, etc. Is that feature removed for 2026? How can I turn that on?

That function has been removed from TurboTax.  It was great for people who understood it, but caused a lot of confusion with people who saw an amount and then were upset when they input more data and that amount went down.   I personally miss that feature, but it is no longer part of TurboTax preparation.

Thank you.

On the off-chance that an Intuit product manager sees this:

Removing this feature has lost you a 6-year returning customer.
If you bring this mandatory feature back, let me know and I may return.
