Business & farm
I tried everything you had suggested. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. In fact, initially, I was elated to see no Federal review error from the software, but as soon as I selected to e-File the Federal return, the exact errors came back. This is very strange and indeed a bug from the software. I hope they can fix this in a timely manner.
After much trial-and-errors, I did find the workaround or what-not-to-do. Basically, I can confirm that the software got into confusion, if and when the revocable TRUST is designated as PR. Since a revocable TRUST has the SSN (individual), not a TIN (business), I suspect this is the reason the software can't tell the difference. Therefore, at the interview screen, for the revocable TRUST, DON'T check the box saying "the member who has been designated as the partnership representative for the business". After I did that, this is the workaround that found worked.
