I’ve completed my taxes, paid TurboTax but when I click e-file, I get the following error: Tax Year 2021 transmissions are not available. How do I get past this?

Please see Your transmission didn't go through due to a server problem.

Thanks but the content seems outdated (already).

 

  • It is not the same message I'm getting, the print center has no "Like to print your return now?" screen after clicking the "Print, save or preview this year's return" button

  • There is no "Pay now" button anywhere on those screens (possibly because I've already paid?)

  • The TurboTax UI no longer has the concept of a shopping cart (again, maybe because I already paid?)

It turns out that the problem was with my state being late getting some forms ready and not yet being able to accept e-files. Setting state taxes to "File by mail" and leaving federal set to "E-File" allowed me to e-file federal taxes with no problems.

 

By February 24th, 2021, my state expects to be ready and I should be able to change state back to e-file and submit them then.
