I asked "I sold timber, but didn't get a 1099-S..." Eventually, Help offered to upgrade to TT live, but that's broken. Any ideas how to enter this, or report a bug?

Timber sales are reported in the Investment Section of TurboTax. If you're using TurboTax Online, you'll need Premier or Self-employed. 

To enter your Timber sales without a 1099-S or 1099-MISC form:

1. Open (continue) your return in TurboTax.
2. Select Pick up where I left off.
3. In the search box, search for investment sales then select the Jump to investment sales.
4. Answer Yes to the question Did you have investment income in 2022? (or Okay! to Time to kick off your investments!).
   • If you land on the Investment sales summary or Your investments and savings screen, select Add More Sales or + Add investments.
5. On the Let's import our tax info screen, select Enter a different way.
6. On the OK, let's start with one investment type screen, select Other (It doesn't matter that you don't have a 1099-S Form) then Continue.
7. Enter the requested information and Continue. 
8. Ignore The info entered should match the 1099-B from your financial institution. In the 1st drop down menu, select Land (other investment purpose).
9. Continue with the onscreen interview until complete.

For your cost basis, most people will enter a 0, but you could enter what you originally paid for the seedlings or saplings.

TurboTax doesn't support IRS Form T (Timber), but you probably don't need this form. According to the IRS, it's only needed ...when a sale or deemed sale under sections 631(a), 631(b), or other exchange has occurred during the tax year.

Thank you for letting me know about, "upgrade to TT live, but that's broken".
