I am filing a final estate tax return. TurboTax Business says there are no errors but when I try to e-file, it asks me to print, sign, and scan back in Form 8453-FE. But the form has watermarks that say "Do Not File" and "Return Not Final". Do I sign and attach anyway or is there some kind of error? I just updated TurboTax at the beginning of this session.
Anyone??? Your software is useless if it doesn't work and you can't explain how to fix it. Can I get a refund?
I have the same issue. Intuit, when will you be updating TurboTax Business Windows with the finalized 8453-FE form? We cannot file until that form is finalized.
I found the TurboTax Business form availability information here:
https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotaxbusiness_fed.html
It looks like (for TT Business Windows Fiduciary), Form 8453-FE (E), US Estate/Trust Income Tax Decl. & Sig. Fiscal will be available on Feb 7, 2025.
Reference:
I just had the same experience. Will see what happens on Feb. 7
Yes, it looks like they changed the date. It was definitely 2/7 when I checked.
