You will not be able to file electronically based upon the information you provided. As mentioned earlier, your best option is to amend your 2023 tax return to remove the amounts applicable to 2024 and utilize those expenses and correctly prepare your 2024 tax returns. As the deadline is closer, you can opt to extend your tax return, amend the 2023 tax returns, and then you will be able to electronically file your 2024 tax return incorporating the childcare expenses attributable to 2024.

Cableguy316, you also do not have anything entered for your Child and Dependent Care expenses. Please see my earlier post in this thread from April 7th for the steps you'll need to take to generate Schedule X correctly. If you have the expenses, then Schedule X will prompt you for more information and and if you meet the criteria, it will allow you to electronically file your Hawaii return.

Helpmedesktopuser, I've tried to download your diagnostic file and am not able to access it. But I suggest looking at my prior suggestions in this thread from April 7th and following the steps as this seems to be the issue on the diagnostic copies I have looked at. If you have a W-2 form with dependent care benefits in box 10, you also need to complete the Child and Dependent Care expenses section. This will then flow into your state return where you will need to answer questions to generate Schedule X.
