SCorp - Error Filing TX Franchise Tax Report

[mandie1008]

I am trying to finish submitted 2021 taxes with Turbotax Business for an SCorp.  I've completed the federal filing but have been waiting for the Texas documents to be ready for efile according to this article.  The last Texas franchise forms became available today (2/18/22).  The only unsupported form remaining is Form TX 05-170, Texas Fran Tax Payment Form - which I don't have.  I updated my software and restarted my computer but when I open Turbotax Business & try to submit my TX franchise tax report, I still get the same error message:

"Tax Year 2021 transmissions are not available. - TurboTax Business is not ready to process Tax Year 2021 for this return".  

What is still causing this error?

The documents should be ready to file now. Please try to resubmit the return. 

Please let us know if you encounter any issues.

Hi Carissa-

I've tried to re-submit and still get the same error.  I've checked again for software updates (there were none) and also restarted my computer.  I also called the support call line and was told that it should go through.  There must be a bug in the update.

Please try to update the software once more in a day or two. I know you have updated before, but I wanted to include the instructions just in case here. 

If this does not work after updating again, the only other option would be to m ail in the Texas State return.
