Cannot access a folder list to save a tax return in another folder

I was able to Import last year's tax file and wanted to save my resulting tax return-in-progress to my usual tax folder. The save dialog box does not provide a method for selecting folders, or seeing the hierarchy of folders in menu form. I am only able to save to pre-defined folders or recent folders, instead of being able to select any folder I want, as every application in existence allows.

Are you trying to save a PDF or .tax file, and are using the CD/Download or online version?

I'm trying to save a .tax file, but in a folder that's not in my sidebar and not one of the most recent folders, which are the only folders being presented to me during a Save operation.

All other applications allow me to bring up a navigable folder structure window, where I can go up, down, sideways, etc to get to the folder I'm interested in saving the file in.

If you are on Windows try doing a Save As. Go up to File - Save As

I'm using Mac, but it's true as well, except for the fact that I cannot get to the File menu, due to another problem with Keychain files. I CAN do a <SHIFT><CMD>S to bring up the Save As menu, but the problem is that the dialog box that comes up does not allow me to select any folder.
