The TurboTax desktop editions for tax year 2025 are available now for purchase and download from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/

@grahamseib do note that as of now many provisions of the recent tax law changes and even older sections are not ready or have not been incorporated into TT2025. many state returns aren't available yet.  just an alert so you realize that the actual results for 2025 could differ significantly from what you get using the current version.

I paid for 2025 Premier edition to get a jump on some calculations. However, it says "this version is NOT compatible with the Mac, version , Xyz. However, now after digging - it looks like the 2025 version has not been released. 
No big deal - but would have preferred to not place an order.

@lkuenste   What Mac OS do you have?   For 2025 You will need Mac OS Sonoma 14 or later

What did you find that 2025 has not been released?  The Desktop program was released in early November.

Also, with the increased personal deduction for seniors, how much of my IRA I can rollover before the end of the year.

@paradisepro if you're comfortable with forms mode and what you need to enter, then the sections that are currently not available are probably available at forms level tho I've not tried entering Schedule D or 1099-R that way.

If you are trying to estimate tax on an IRA conversion to Roth (is that you mean by "rollover"), you would also need the tax calculation on Form 8606 if you have any basis in the IRA.  You can also calculate by hand how much of the conversion would be taxable and possibly just put that in as a 1099-INT to get it into ordinary income.

It may be simpler to work with a different online tool for estimation, folks have recommended this

Is there any current update on Sale of Home for 2025 release?  I really need to do some planning before 12/31 and this function is still outstanding.

[Matthew_JS]

December 28 and still not functional.

I bought h and r block premier and it is fully functional. I will say however that it’s not as user friendly as TurboTax but it works!

[fish1745]

it seems like almost anything i click on in the 2025 desktop version says "not available yet".

how can they sell a product that says it has various features but most of those features don't exist.

would people still buy it if they understood that most tax return items are "not available yet"??

[fish1745]

it's still a waste of time as of today 12/29/25

Yes, because most people understand that their income tax returns are not due until mid-April (mid-October with an extension) and the IRS is NOT accepting returns until late January (and a TON of folks don't get their tax reporting forms, such as a 1099-B, until several weeks after that).

Further, the IRS has not even finalized many forms as of today's date.

[JoMurphy53]

Are you trying to increase your contributions to the IRA or withdraw tax free?  I'm using that $6000 (actually $12k since we're married) to withdraw additional funds from the IRA up to the amount when I'd be taxed.  It's very hard to plan the amount since any increase in IRA withdrawn increases taxes on Social Security. That's why having a FULLY functional turbo tax before 12/31 (or as much as can be estimated) is helpful.

I have created a spreadsheet that does the SS taxable amount for me and I track every cent of income from interest and dividends and pensions.

[JoMurphy53]

thank you - I did use forms and override of the amounts I needed to enter.  Keeping fingers crossed nothing changes.

so rollover is to keep an IRA (roth instead of traditional?)

I’ll see your 12/29/2025 worthlessness and raise it to 12/30/2025.

I will not advance purchase in the future since it is not released in sufficient time to do tax planning.  TurboTax cost me more than the acquisition cost this year because of the delay.
