No state filing (live in Texas), and its the same forms I have been filing the last 3 years, but the next page says I cannot file electronically, need to print and mail. It doesn't tell me which form is the problem, but these are all the same forms I always file. here is the screen shot:

I don't know the reason, but many folks are reporting in this forum that they cannot efile with their Schedule C. Several have phoned TurboTax Support, and TurboTax is aware of the issue. Normally, TurboTax updates the software overnight on early Thursday mornings. Whether it will be fixed then (or hopefully before), I'm not sure. It could be some underlying form related to Schedule C.
