error "Wages Paid Schedule C"

[Kristin19]

I keep receiving the same message, "Wages paid Schedule C - We're updating employee credits for small businesses and farms. We should have this ready by  (xx/xx/xx). Please check back with us then." And it keeps pushing back the date. How do I resolve this issue? I need to file.

According to the Forms Availability Table, Form 8881, Employee Credits for Small Businesses and Farms is due on February 21, 2024, even if this doesn't seem to apply to your situation. Update your software the next day, run Review again, then try e-filing again. The forms hold should be released.

The IRS made several changes to forms related to businesses this year. TurboTax programmers are diligently working to implement these changes and ensure accuracy on all forms for your tax return.

I have the same issue and it is extremely frustrating - the date keeps getting pushed back further and further. I've been waiting for 2 weeks already and there seems to be no definite fix in sight for the online edition of TurboTax, while the desktop software has a patch already.

the desktop version does not have a patch. I updated today (2/6) and run into the same issue

I am running into the same problem with online turbo tax. It keeps saying Turbo tax is updating employee credit on Wage Paid Schedule C, but the date keeps getting pushed back. Now it's 2/29/24. I can't file until this is resolved. Please help. 

Thanks.

I got the same issue.  This is bad.  You need to resolve this immediately

I have now waited until the forms availability table shows that forms are updated, I updated turbo tax, and tried to file again and the date has been pushed back again (to 02/28/2024). How can I fix this issue?

I am filing from Michigan. The only form showing needing updates is Form MI-5792. Table shows it should have been updated and available 02/21/2024. But I am still having the same issue when I try to file.

Well today is the 22nd i did the update and now it says i have to wait till the 29th. So can you explain to me whats goin on? If i dont file taxes to get the return that i need im loosing my business and my house.

Have been trying to call technical support and they had no clues what to do.  Customer service is a joke.  Won't use turbo tax ever again.  Bad company

[MT44]

This is bull**bleep**.  You guys keep pushing the date back.  Today we try and it says 02/29/2023.  This needs to get resolved

[aypeekay47]

never using turbotax again, this should have bee brought to our attention BEFORE we all spent the time to complete the schedule C, not when we're about to file. Hours of my time wasted 

[MT44]

The issue has been around for more than a month and they never fix it.  Bad company

[gabchan]

Now it says 3/2/2024... I wonder if they are capable of fixing this.

[MT44]

No they have no clues what to do.  They probably hired a whole of AI BOTs that have no brain
