This form is not populating. As a result, the return is using the OR standard deduction which is much smaller than the taxpayer's itemized total. How can I get the deductions to appear on Sch OR-A for 2023?

Using TurboTax Desktop, you can follow the instructions below to itemize your Oregon deductions:

Open your state return.
Go into Forms mode.
On the left, scroll down to the Oregon Individual forms.
Choose Info Worksheet.
In Part V of the Info Worksheet, mark the box that states Itemize even if itemized deductions are less than the standard deduction.
Form OR-A will be added.

If you are using TurboTax Online, please see information here on switching to TurboTax Desktop. If you already paid fees for TurboTax Online, please click here to get a refund if you will be using the desktop program.

Thank you for this answer. Do you know why this has not been corrected by TurboTax? The default option should not be to take the standard deduction even if less than itemized deductions. It was not like that in previous years and does not make any sense as it does not give the taxpayer the "maximum refund" as Turbo Tax guarantees.

If your returns require amending because the wrong deduction amount was used, rest assured, TurboTax will make it easy AND free to do so. @Kent16 @silversmith5

Turbo Tax should honor refund or some type of compensation for this major bug.

This issue did NOT get fixed until after the tax filing deadline.

it's a major difference in the amount of return .

Thank you for asking this question. The solution did work for me, but TurboTax needs to fix this problem or Oregon residents will not get their maximum deductions.
