It's now September 2024 and the problem has not been fixed yet. We went through the same steps as everyone else on this thread and had the same frustrations. We screamed and cursed at the software for a while before we found this forum. I was a little relieved to learn that I am not the only one who is angry. TurboTax software tells us that we can file the 1040 electronically if the 1310 has already been filed but fails when we try to submit. It is also not always clear who they mean by "you". I accidentally changed my father-in-law's birthdate to my wife's birthdate because it asked for the birthdate of the person actually submitting the return.
Part of the reason we filed for an extension was so we could file electronically after the IRS processed form 1310. Does anyone know if TurboTax ever intends to fix this issue? Are there other places I can complain about this and write bad reviews. People have been complaining about this for years, and for every customer who complains, there are many others who are silently angry at the software.
