Why can't I see the amount of tax I owe or my refund as I am filling out my form? It used to show that information.

MISSING REFUND MONITOR

 

Sorry—-the “running” refund monitor that used to change as you entered data is gone.  You have to get all of your income, etc. entered into the software in order to see the results.

The other place for you to look for your federal refund or federal tax due is on your Form 1040

Federal refund will be on line 35a

Federal tax due (that needs to be paid by April 15) will be on line 37

  

PREVIEW 1040

It is gone..  debating finding another tax program now if any other ones show this.  I have a complicated situation with my wife and it helps understand who gets what chunk of a refund.  

 

There are hundreds of people complaining about this over several posts and they are ignored.

2025 Turbo Tax Sucks.  So many shortcomings this year I don't know where to begin.
