Get your taxes done using TurboTax

On twitter, facebook and even TT support when you call, you are most likely  reaching NON tax professionals so they google search the answers to the questions they think you asked and are not aware of the technical issues that the program currently has.  I know that information in the intuit system often only trickels down from customer support to the tech departments and doesn't often well up so customer support is often in the dark and are grasping at straws to come up with an answer in the time they are alloted.  In the early days of the program there are always glitches and bugs to be worked out and they will eventually fix them all it is just a matter of time.  

 

FYI ... if anyone actually files a return with this incorrect form TT will send out an email alert to those folks alerting them to the situation and instructing them on how to make the correction thru the amendment process.  They usually have a specific help number to call so you can speak with someone familiar with the process and the situation.  Intuit is proactive in this way when they find/fix an error that may have affected any of their customers.  

 

This is why they verify your email address when you file  and why you should pay attention to any emails TT sends you even if you will dismiss them as junk marketing.
