Get your taxes done using TurboTax
The occupation that you listed at the beginning of the federal return has too many characters for your state's e-file rules.
Try this to fix it:
- Sign in to your account and click Fix my return.
- Once you are in the return, open the left side menu, and select My Info.
- Click Edit to the right of your name.
- You will see Occupation on the fourth line. Shorten what you have there. You can use abbreviations or make it more general. For example, change "Property insurance claims adjuster" to "Claims adjuster" or "Senior customer service representative" to "Sr. customer service rep."
- Once that is corrected, click State on the left side menu.
- Continue and let the program check your state return.
- Continue thru the File section and re-submit your return.
