Get your taxes done using TurboTax
1. The description of error says:"The return type indicated in the return header must match type established with the IRS for the EIN". However, under the Federal Review tab, it shows NO ERRORS.
if it was formed as a corporation, Turbotax has no way to know if you filed form 2553 to elect s-corp tax status was approved. Thus "No Errors" or you formed an LLC the needed to file both an entity election and form 2553 to be recognized as an S-corp for tax puposes. Again, Turbotax would have no way of knowing whether or not these steps were successfully completed. If you did file, and the IRS got the paperwork (tax forms to elect S-Corp) it should have sent you a notification that your S-Corp election was effective for the year beginning xx/xx/20xx
if you filed the 2553 election late and did not use the late election section, then the S-Corp would not be recognized until the following year. Again, Turbotax would have no way to know that an S-Corp return for the current year would be invalid.
