Deleted my wife's middle initial in personal info section; her legal name does not have a middle initial; when trying to E-file, Massachusetts approval form says "middle initial does not match" and will not let me proceed.  Not sure what the program is trying to match or where to change.  Legal name is desired since she started a business and we are filing a schedule C.
