State tax filing

I had the same thing happened to me today. I started doing my taxes this morning and got frustrated to my wits-end why does it keeps looping back to review 10 stuff after I got done with Federal and State.  It was so frustrating that I cried just by doing a tax return! Ridiculous!

 

I have a feeling that Turbotax have not updated much of their system. I am not sure if it was intentional to make the system dysfunctional as the price for Deluxe seems lower than of the past years?

 

I found out the solution:

 

after trying to file my return the second time this afternoon. I had the same issues. What I notice was It keeps adding blank W2s to our Federal. (Locate where you have entered your W2 info - Edit/Delete - hit Edit) Delete the blank ones (make sure you dont delete the "real" w2s". 

 

Then proceed/continue to work on State (again) and if looping occurs at the "review" part. Go to the Federal - (where w2 section is at) click Edit and delete the blank ones again. 

 

Then on the left part of the screen - Select State - Go to State Review - Run Smart Check. 

 

Everything will be smooth from then on.  I finally was able to submit our taxes today just by doing these steps. 

 

Not to mention, I paid $40 twice.  once, when I filed our return this morning that didn't go through/rejected. second, when I was trying to submit the tax return again this afternoon.  I had to pay $40 again! - This is another thing to tackle - I will try to request for a refund for the first charge.

 

Good luck and hopefully this resolves/help the people with the same issue from TurboTax.
