If you are getting this message in TurboTax regarding Form 3520:
"We Won't Be Able to E-file Your Return
It looks like you have a form or tax situation in your federal return that TurboTax doesn't support for e-filing. We do support it for filing by mail.
Here are the details:
Your return contains one of the following unsupported forms: 3520, 3520-A, 5471, 8621, 8865
Don't worry, even though you are unable to e-file your return, we'll still help you file your return by mail."
...then please try this additional step:
Go back to Other Tax Situations and revisit Form 8938. Where TurboTax asks you to indicate whether you need to submit a Form 3520, don't mark the box for Form 3520.
By clearing Part IV, Line 15 (Number of Forms 3520) from 1 to blank, you should eliminate the e-file error message.
