Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Let me clarify:

POSSIBLE SOLUTION for some circumstances.

 

My Federal Tax return was rejected earlier this evening with the same error code. "R0000-058-01 - An XML document that represents a binary attachment must have a valid reference to an attached file." After researching questions and answers, I have since "fixed" the error, resubmitted, and just received notice that my Federal Tax return was accepted.

 

Here's what I did:

1. Switch from EasyStep to Forms.

2. Click Open Form.

3. Search for Form 7206.

4. I had 5 listed in the results. I clicked on each one. 3 were nothing and ask you to select an existing Form 7206. 1 was associated with my K-1, and 1 was associated with my Schedule C.  Try deleting any extra 7206 forms that are NOT needed. I had two associated with my return. When I deleted one of them, it was accepted. PLEASE make sure you keep the necessary form for submission. 

5. After searching a second time for Form 7206, I verified that there was only the 1 Form 7206 associated with my K-1 in my return. My guess is that it will be rejected if you have 2 Form 7206's.

6. I saved. Resubmitted Federal. Received acceptance. Then submitted State Return after confirming acceptance.

 

NOTE: There was only 1 Form 7206 listed in the left side of the forms list, so I had no idea there was a second active form until I did the search as listed above. 

 

This is a possible solution for some users. It is worth a try since it worked for me and two others.
