Honestly it seems to have different new bugs every year. This year, it completely ignored income from a 1099-DIV imported from Vanguard. It shows the 1099-DIV as imported, and it shows the correct numbers on it, but just failed to add any of those numbers to the totals for dividends and distributions!

Apparently the work-around is to manually edit the form and enter 0.00 on any line the import left blank. After doing that, the software accounts for everything properly.

I found a forum post of TurboTax users discussing this exact issue with Vanguard 1099-DIVs back in January, and it still isn't fixed yet in April. Seems like this could affect a lot of people who just won't notice, because it isn't obvious unless you manually double-check the tax math.
