Deductions & credits
{MODS} Turbotax is messed up.
this is what Desktop Deluxe says when an appraisal is needed
You must have a signed appraisal for the donation you made to charity X on xx/xx/xxxx and a signed donee acknowledgment for it.
you can e-file this return however you must mail the appraisal with form 8453 which you can be found with your forms
******************************
However, Turbotax refuses to e-file when you select final review from the tools tab because it points out 2 errors about this contribution even after completing all the required information
"you have an entry on form 8283 Declaration of Appraiser which requires an appraiser's signature, electronic attachment is not supported. Print this return and file by mail"
the second error is for the lack of donee signature
*******************************************
these errors do not pop up when you go through final review in step mode - no errors are found which is correct since the 8453 is prepared.
