This has NOT been fixed for tax year 2024. I had the same problem. I do not estimate my taxes each year. Instead, I adjust the federal and tax deductions on my 1099 income accounts (when necessary, usually not) to make sure I have had enough tax taken off so that none will be due. This year I had a very small amount due to SC due to some unexpected income and TurboTax would not allow me to either print or save as a pdf my return before e-filing. The fix is to go into your SC state return and edit the section dealing with 2025 estimated taxes. If TurboTax sees that an amount will be due for tax year 2025 based on your SC state tax prepayments made for 2024, it won't let you do any printing or saving to a pdf until it receives the final South Carolina form SC1040ES1 (1st quarter estimated SC tax) on March 6, 2025. However, if you either lower your income estimate for 2025, or raise your prepaid tax estimate for 2025, so that there will be no additional SC tax due for tax year 2025, then you can print or save your forms before transmitting, as it should be. However, the printing or saving as a pdf only worked when being in the Forms menu and selecting Print or Save As PDF from the dropdown menu there. The button to Print Your Forms within the final steps before online transmitting your taxes would still "hang up" even after making this change. My Federal and SC state forms did submit correctly and the forms which I saved as a pdf after making this change were correct. TurboTax really needs to fix this for the future. I called TurboTax tech support 4 times on this over a 2-week period and they were unable to tell me a workaround or solution.
