Hi, I have TurboTax 2024 and many previous years' versions....my question is this. I would like to do a "quick" entry of my basic data into turbo tax, to see if I should make some charitable deductions or other transactions to lower my tax bill - before the end of the year.
I know my dividends, cap gains, ordinary income. I can make some basic estimates on deductions, charitable deductions, etc. I just want a simple way to enter this data with some "guesstimates", to see what the tax bill looks like, and then I can change numbers to see what I am able to do before Dec 31. I don't want to go through all the Q&A normally needed to enter exact data - I don't have 1099s yet - and I noticed some parts of Turbo Tax 2024 aren't even ready.
I could even do this using Turbo Tax 2023 to get a very rough idea where my taxes stand. I have versions still installed on my computer back to 2016.
I am thinking there might be a table/form with final numbers in one of my older tax files (or create a new one), that I could use to just change or type numbers into, that was not connected to interview questions, downloads, etc.
Is there a simple way to do this with any version of Turbo Tax? Thanks.
