The capital gains inclusion rate from 1/2 to 2/3 from June 25th 2024 is still programmed into this software, yet that situation has been changed. The inclusion rate is now 50% for all of 2024.
When will Turbo Tax be changed to reflect this new situation?
The Loss Worksheet is also in bad shape. When will it be corrected?
The issue related to Schedule 3 was reported to our teams. Unfortunately, this is not a situation under our control. At this time, some CRA forms are still being reviewed by them for the 2024 tax season, which could explain why some calculations are not done correctly or do not appear, and this has an effect on other calculation linked to this schedule.
We invite you to contact our product support team by phone, if you think this is not related.
They have access to tools we don't have here in Community, like screenshare, and see the issues to escalate into an investigation if needed.
Thank you for your patience and choosing TurboTax.

So for those of us who have capital gains to file in excess of $250K, should wait for software to update?
I sold a property, but Turbotax still calculating as 2/3 for anything above 250K Capital gains
@milly101 Yes, you should wait. NETFILE for 2024 will not be available until February 24, 2025, so you can't file now. Our development team is working on fixing Schedule 3 and related forms ASAP. In the meantime, if you are trying to estimate your taxes payable, use the old 50% capital gains rate.
Thank you for your patience.
After so many years of using Turbo Tax I am super disappointed this year in all the problems.
People like to start early and use Turbo Tax for planning, but that's not really possible this year, so telling users that it doesn't matter because they can't NETFILE until Feb 24 is a rather poor response.
The capital gains inclusion rate is back to 50%, as it's been for 23 years, so how difficult is it for programmers to do an update? Just use the software from last year - it worked great.
At the very least I would like to see a software update that included a popup telling users that Schedule 3 and Loss Worksheet and T1A, etc., etc., is not working.
@elykFFF We do understand your frustration, but unfortunately, we have to wait for the CRA to provide us with the forms before we can add/adjust what's in our software. The CRA was late providing us with the original 2024 forms, and then we had to wait as the CRA redid the forms without the new cap gains rate before we could redo our forms. We can't just use the 2023 version of the form, we need to use what the CRA is using, even if the capital gains rate is the same. We also need to test any changes made to the software before we can release them to the public.
As for a warning - one of the reasons why don't allow you to print or save your return to PDF is because forms are often not finalized until NETFILE opens. You get a message telling you this when you try to do either of those things.
Netfile was open on Feb 24, and when I tried netfile last night Mar 2, I still can't. When will turboxtax get updated so we can file?
Same here.
Please share with the community when Netfile will start working
@Turb0taxer Please verify that none of the forms you are using are locked: TurboTax FAQ: Why does TurboTax say my forms are locked or haven't been finalized?
We do not have any ETA on this yet but as soon a these forms gets finalize we will be updating them in TurboTax.
We appreciate your patience.
If you are not using any locked forms, we suggest you to contact our Product support team. They have access to tools we don't have here in Community, like screenshare to investigate this issue for you.
I am reaching out to inquire about the update timeline for Schedule 3 in TurboTax. As you know, CRA’s NetFile service opened on February 24th, yet as of March 3rd, users are still unable to file their returns due to the missing update.
Can you provide a clear timeline on when this issue will be resolved? Many users are ready to submit their tax returns, and the delay is causing unnecessary frustration. A prompt update on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
@Mike M6 Schedule 3 is still locked by CRA and not finalized by yet. Please refer to this link Why does TurboTax say my forms are locked or haven't been finalized?
We do not have any ETA on this yet but as soon a these forms gets finalize we will be updating them in TurboTax for an accurate calculations.
We appreciate your patience.
According to the CRA, the software company is responsible for the capital gain software updates.
You seem to suggest we are all waiting for CRA? Please clarify.
Thanks

Not supported for the 2024 tax year:
I am waiting to be able to file taxes due to schedule 3 error. Why should this happen when I answer no to capital gains profile question. I would like a refund of this program and use something else. I should not have to wait because an answer of no sits on a schedule.
If you are not using Schedule 3.Please try to close any open and unused forms. Select Edit>Forms>Clear Current Form, and then Edit>Forms>Close Unused Forms.
Doesn't do anything, I tried that and still errors out because schedule 3 is still in draft from.
What I don't get it is why other tax software have already updated this but not turbo tax. All these headaches because i need to declare $250 of capital gains ... argh!!!
It is not possible to netfile with schedule 3 with any software.
@milly101 Schedule 3 is still locked by CRA & RQ and not finalized by yet. Please refer to this link Why does TurboTax say my forms are locked or haven't been finalized?

Totally agree. I have been waiting 2 weeks to complete my taxes. If I had known TurboTax wasn't ready for me to file, I would have used other software. Still might. Kind of disappointing.
It is the CRA. It has nothing to do with Turbotax. If you are using a locked form, you can't file at all.
Schedule 3 - Capital Gain has been updated on the CRA website, and it does correspond to schedule 3 that you have on your software. If you look carefully, both schedule (CRA and TurboTax) still refers to 2 periods (2024/01/01 to 2024/06/24 and 2024/06/25 to 2024/12/31). However, in Part 4 of schedule 3, it adds period 1 and 2 and multiply it by 50% which is the inclusion rate. So, the change has been made to schedule 3 and when I called CRA, they mentioned that there won't be any more updates of schedule 3 considering that they did fix the inclusion rate back to 50%.
In the numerous returns I do for my family, I was able to submit some of them but not the other ones despite the fact that they did not have any capital gains. I believe that you are out of explanations and reasons for not being able to correct this problem in your software.
I have tried 2 other softwares (UFile and Taxtrom) and with both, I was able to submit the same returns that was refused by TurboTax and they used the same schedule 3 that CRA has amended with the 50% inclusion.
This is the last time that I will be using TurboTax despite my usage since 1999.
You need to be honest and admit to your clients that you just can't fix the problem at this point and it has nothing to do with CRA's schedule.
@JEEP3 If you don't have Capital gains, Please try clearing the unneeded form and then closing unused forms. You can find those options under Edit>Forms in the top menu.

We appreciate your patience and appreciate your feedback.
The CRA’s official page for Schedule 3 indicates that the form was last updated on February 10, 2025, confirming its completion and availability for the 2024 tax year.
Additionally, the CRA has provided guidance on completing Schedule 3, detailing the process for reporting capital transactions and calculating taxable capital gains or net capital losses.
see the following link
Again I ask when will TurboTax fix the software to allows us to file returns which should have been available on February 24, 2025
WHEN WILL TURBO TAX UPDATE THE PROGRAM SO WE CAN NETFILE OR PRINT OUR 2024
RETURNS
THANK YOU
RICHARD

Dear Admin, I have been using TurboTax for the last 25 years and be assured that I did close all the unused forms including Schedule 3 for capital gains despite that the taxpayer did not have any capital gain for 2024 and never had capital gains before.
As I mentioned before, the other two softwares that I have tried for 2024 allowed me to send this taxpayer its T1 for 2024 without any issued.
Thank you for your effort but, obviously, TurboTax is not up-to speed this year.
