Successfully Printed South Carolina 2023 Income Tax Return

I finally was able to print, save as a PDF and file our 2023 South Carolina income tax return. Someone who previously worked for the SCDOR contacted their IT department and learned that SC's ES1040ES estimated 2024 tax form is not yet finalized. TurboTax is designed not to permit printing or saving as a PDF until all forms are available & loaded onto their program. (Frankly, I don't understand TT's "logic.") However, if the filer goes into TT's program & "defeats" their calculation of estimated taxes for 2024 (by zeroing out the calculation), the filer can finally print and save the return as a PDF. Electronic filing can also be completed.

 

I hope that this post saves others lots of heartache!!!
