Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yep, it's here for this current tax year.  I'm using HOME & BUSINESS version.

 

I got the FAILED_VALIDATION error when trying to submit the eFiles, saying I needed to update, but Check For Updates shows that it IS up to date.  I went back and submitted ONLY the FEDERAL, and it went through.  I *still* am not able to submit State (Alabama) due to that same FAILED_VALIDATION error again.  I've used TurboTax for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I've seen this.  NOT HAPPY.  Installed the SuperPatch, didn't help.  Went through steps with tech support for 30 minutes on the phone and that didn't help either.  

 

Of course I can print and MAIL the state return if necessary, and request a refund of my $25 state fee from Intuit.  But I shouldn't have to... and I shouldn't have to take the time to do a complete uninstall and reinstall only to find out it doesn't fix it either, since likely it's a server issue on the Intuit side according to what was seen in previous years.  But we're getting close to the wire for filing now...
