r/TurboTax

Finally got approved and received my taxes 7/31 after 6 months but I got notification that the funds was returned to tt because my bank was closed then got issued a check on Aug 3 then received a image of a intuited check like mail on informed delivery usps Aug 7 it’s the 15th now and I still haven’t received anything I went to my local postal office twice told me to wait and file claim for missing mail then I call tt and they told me that to wait a more weeks in case on delivery delay nobody has a clue what’s going on and has anybody received a check from tt because of a closed bank?

I received a buyout in January from my employer equal to my 2025 salary plus I have a new job and company so my income is doubling in 2026 plus my wife is retiring next month so she will see her income go up by 60% with her leave payout.
I'm thinking of calculating a faux return in the TT25 to get a handle on my last 2 quarterly payments, and a ballpark of my total potential tax liability. I'm not worried about minor changes in tax brackets and such. My return is a std deduction, W-2 income, investment income and multiple K1s.

Will Desktop TT25 allow me to get to the filing review? I would just use the print to file option but never file.
I would use it to test 401k contribution levels and other options.

I took time today to amend my 2024 return. Everything was set and ready until I got to the check out. I had to update since I had a schedule C, which was no problem. I put in my credit card info, for some reason kept getting an error message when processing the payment. It said something like,” oops , we hit a snap while processing!” I read through a few Reddit posts about clearing caches and entering gibberish for the address info. I did both and the same still happened. The page refreshed and logged me out. I signed back in, and now the amendment feature for 2024 is completely gone, so I can no longer access my amended return. At this point, all I can do is call TurboTax when they open on Monday morning. Gonna stay a positive hope they can fix the issue. Has anybody gone through something similar?

Former Intuit Expert and interviewed with JDA after a recruiter reached out. Yes, the hourly rate is slightly higher ($3 in my case) but you lose out on all the Intuit perks including Internet reimbursement, product discounts, and bonus. Has anyone here worked for both? What's your take?

Just wanted to say the 5 day early refund option was very fast this year. My transcripts updated this morning with refund approved and at 9am my money was in the bank.

Now the other hold up was insane slow, filed in January, got my local senator involved around April and it took 7 months + to finally get refunded.

Leason learned, my w4 has been updated and from now on will do my best to be at zero owed and zero refund.

No more loans to the government.

Good luck for those still fighting to get there refunds, it's moving but really slow...

Hi Folks,

I got an offer to work for JDA this season for about 40% higher hourly pay than TurboTax. I’m curious if JDA contractors still get the proconnect/proseries/lacerte discount. I believe last year it was like 100 proconnect returns for $300.

Thank you in advance.

I’m trying to choose between the QuickBooks and TurboTax certification paths on Intuit Academy, as from what I understand you have to pick one/can’t work for QuickBooks Live and TurboTax Live simultaneously. 

So, does anyone know which of these options is more likely to hire someone with no relevant experience (beyond completing their certification program)? And are there any other factors I should consider when making this decision? Any help would be much appreciated

So, long story short- I need to file amended returns for every year (exc 2020) thru 2016. I have most or all of my disks and even many updates... i foolishly expected- having paid $80/yr to these people- would allow me to do what I, as a taxpayer and customer, need.

And that is have my tax filings USEFULLY available through their product. Until i stop needing it.

Of course not. enshittification is rampant. Intuit is far from a shining knight. Acordingly, I won't use their stuff ever again- they are making my tax life HARDER.

You all know they now assert the licenses are only for 3 years- so my carefully archived TT 2019, or 2022 are apparently impossible 1) get missing updates if I forgot to archive and 2) to activate, even though I have.

So, I look to you all for help- either dealing with Intuit, or by pointing me at somewhere where I can use my archived PDFs or even the TT files, instead of doing this all longhand.

Help me tax people, you are my only hope!

Help turbo tax I've processed my return in January approved and even my state completed and returned approved with my state refund all in January*. Still waiting on The Federal income processing. Every time I check online it tells me that The IRS is still processing my return. Only one bar filled. Couple days now Well over 180-thanks though you guys are great 👍 do my taxes with Turbo all the time. Peace I'll keep posted when I get there.

I amended tax return of 2024, had forgotten to include one of the capital gain from investment account. The amendment resulted in the change of capital loss for 2024 (something like I had 5k capital loss carry over i had used in 2025 but after the amendment the carry over amount that i should be using is just 3k).

Now i need to update the capital loss carryover for 2025 and amend 2025 return as well, below are my understanding and questions. any help would be apprepcaited.

1. is there a way to ask turbo tax to automatically import the updated carryover numbers? (all the tax filings and amendment where done in turbotax)

2. i see one manually editing options on carry over section where i need to provide both short term and long term loss amount (before 3,000 allowed loss used in 2024). but i'd prefer auto import if available.

Any other things i need to keep in mind?

Thanks.

On the intuit Academy, do the 13 practice returns have to be done in one sitting?

My account has just been accepted into the Creator Rewards Program, but when I reached the tax information step, my tax setup was suddenly blocked. Is there anyone who can help me resolve this issue?
