I'm trying to get to the community, but when i login with my intuit account  I get shoved off to questionaires about using TT online.  I do not want to get sucked into that, how do I just get to community to complain that the usual easy-to-use desktop version has this year stymied me  at the very beginning by not prompting for the same  1099s as always I  have every year even though it has the list of them but wants me to type in a name or find it in a list.

AI robot Catina answered the wrong question.  I am an indivdual trying to use turbo tax windows for the perhaps 40th year in a row and I can't get 2026 TT to enter the data from paper and pdf copies of 1099s like I always could.  TT now insists on trying to import data from the institutions on my last return and FAILS.  The usual list of past 1099s doesn't show up for me to step through and type the two or three numbers I usually did.

Are you using the Desktop program?   To start, at the bottom of the screen to type in your bank to import there is a little blue button to Skip Import.  Then if you get the list of Interest and Dividends there is a pencil icon on the right by each one to edit it.  And now they list ALL your interest, dividends and investments mixed on 1 list.   

 

For Desktop.....when you click on either Interest, Dividends or Investments from the main first income list you get ALL your 1099 forms listed mixed together.   You need to go to the bottom and click on +Add Investments
