Uploading a PDF into TTX software?

______________

If so...just don't...enter it manually.

 

Past history with W-2 and other forms as PDF uploads, has ended up with tons of cases of $$ entries getting into the wrong fields...and creating tax refund/payment chaos.  Maybe the AI is getting better this year at interpreting this stuff, but I wouldn't trust it.  manual entry with the form printed out beside you is safer.
