I cannot print my CT Fiduciary return (1041). It says forms not finalized, but there are no pending forms?

[davidg121]

When I try to print my return it says "Your Connecticut Fiduciary return(s) is currently unavailable to view, print, or download because some of the forms haven't been finalized yet". There is a link provided to inform me when these are done, but it brings me to an error page. This is on the 2025 Business desktop version. I have checked for updates and it says my software is up to date. Is this a bug or how can I tell which form(s) are not yet ready?

The TurboTax Form Availability tool (link below) shows all CT forms are ready with exception of the 'amendment' form.  Though, the tool does not have any data on 1041 forms.

I am having the same issue.  Very frustrating to not be able to complete my returns.

[jwc2000]

I have now contacted TurboTax/ Intuit twice about the issue.  Each time they have opened a case.  Then 15 minutes late I get an email saying my case has been closed... but the problem still isn't fixed.  I have spent more than 2 hours on hold and on the phone with Intuit and it still doesn't work.

This experience was reported to the development team and corrected in the update released February 13, 2026. Please restart TurboTax Business, allow all updates, and print your forms again. You may also try opening the PDFs using the Chrome browser or Adobe Acrobat.

If you are still unable to print your CT fiduciary return, it would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file that is experiencing this issue. You can send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information. If you would like to do this, here are the instructions: 

1. Open your return and go to Online in the top menu, then choose "Send Tax File to Agent."
2. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click okay through this screen and then you will get a Token number.
3. Reply to this thread with a screenshot of your Token number (this avoids Community filters for numbers with a dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you.
4. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important.

We will attempt to determine the cause of your experience and possibly provide you with a resolution.

@PatriciaV 

Thank you for your follow up.  

However, I am a bit confused by your post:

1.  This does not exist in my Menu for Tax Cut Business Desktop "Send Tax File to Agent."  (see below)

2.  My software says it is up to date (see below)

3.  The last update I received was before 2/13.

4.  I did a full uninstall and reinstall and am still having this issue.

Is there someone I can actually talk to about this since clearly something is very off here.

@PatriciaV 

Well, after manually downloading an update, I can now send you a tax file.  See token number below.  However, the update(s) still have a release date of 2/6-2/12.  So if there was a 2/13 update, I don't have it and can't seem to get it.  Thank you!

I continue to have the same problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled and still cannot access the filing. See token and error below:

This experience has been reported to development for further investigation. If they determine the cause of your experience, we'll post any possible resolution to this thread.

Our development team has determined that this experience is not a program defect. They recommend that you manually update TurboTax Business using the instructions here: Manually Update TurboTax Business Software. This will not affect the state module(s) you have already installed.

Please post the version number before and after your manual update. In TurboTax Business, the version number appears in the main menu (black bar at the top) under Help >> About TurboTax Business 20XX >> Version tab.
This information will help us verify that the update was successful.

Unfortunately, this did not help or change anything. Before and after versions are exactly the same. See screenshots below. First screenshot is PRE and second is POST manual update:

@PatriciaV 

Likewise.  Both before and after were 025.000.0191.  Software shows my last update was on 2/20/26.  So I am getting the updates.

Two questions:

1. What should the correct version be?
2. I spoke to a representative on Thursday or Friday (you should be able to check).  She told me that the forms are simply not finalized and you expect to finalize them by 2/26/26?  Is that the case?  

[PatriciaV]

This experience is under investigation, and your input is appreciated. We have not been given an estimated date for a resolution or program update. We'll post to this thread when we have more information.

I am having the same issue with TurboTax for Business - Connecticut

My installation is up to date. I have uninstalled the CT state return and reinstalled it.

The message does not say which form is not available.

"Your Connecticut Fiduciary return(s) is currently unavailable to view, print or download because some of the forms haven't been finalized yet"

I used Step-By-Step; it says CT is ready to file but error persists.

Tried to Print to file, but the error shows up there as well.

I ran the Manual Update program. My version # did not change. 025.000.0195 before and after.

Error remains.

It looks like TT has been working this issue for a while now. What is the ETA?

[PatriciaV · Accepted solution]

Please open TurboTax Business and allow the program to update. The Connecticut Fiduciary module update was released last night. You should now be able to print all or part of your CT Fiduciary return.

Thank you. The new update worked for me and was able to finally print the final CT return for filing.
