Reject Code /Return/ReturnData/IRS8915F/FEMADisasterDeclarationNum

I've e-filed my return twice, and twice had my return rejected with the following reason code:

Reject Code /Return/ReturnData/IRS8915F/FEMADisasterDeclarationNum

After spending more than an hour on a chat with an "expert", who had me delete my form 8915-F and manually re-enter the data, I was told that this is a known bug in the software and there is NO ETA for a fix.

How do I apply for a refund?    It would be faster for me to manually fill out a return - ENTERING THE CORRECT DATA ON FORM 8519-F myself, than waiting for the coders to fix their error.   I've already been waiting 6 weeks to file because of this single form that is still not ready.....
