There are lots of possible reasons for an efile rejection. Please provide the rejection error code and message.

TURBO Tax programs are great - but your on line service lacks ability to assist even after the work is competed

The last update my TurboTax received was April 3, 2025. I am quite sure it has been updated since then. I have stopped and restarted TurboTax. No updates seen. I have run check for updates and it says that my version is up to date. There is a way to see all the current versions of your TurboTax under About TurboTax. Is there a website where you can compare your version to the latest TurboTax version to ensure it is updating? There should be a way for someone to verify this easily.

I was unemployed in 2025 and was not aware that I should have paid estimated taxes, which I have learned only after filing my 2025 taxes. The TurboTax community suggested I put "let IRS assess the penalty fee" AND advised I could request First Time Abatement since I was compliant my three prior years. Attached Image 1 from the IRS website showing the IRS penalty amount along with three prior years of compliance. And for all of the last 30+ years as a taxpayer I never got assessed IRS penalty until tax year 2025. The FTA abatement Form 843 requires me to enter the Internal Revenue Code section for non-payment of estimated taxes, which I understand should be included in the IRS notice of penalty but I never received one (see IMAGE 2 below - I signed up for online receipt of notices and the IRS notices section is empty). What would the IRS Code section be in this case? I have filled out my Form 843 and included a screenshot at the bottom) to request for abatement which I will later print out and mail to the IRS. Am kindly requesting expert inputs if my entries in the Form 843 Lines 1- 7 are correct, and would appreciate kind inputs on Line 8 (reason for abatement) for better chance of the IRS approving my request for abatement. Last question - I hope the IRS would not raise the interest on my penalty amount due to my non-payment of penalty while I wait for its response to my Form 483 request? Really appreciate your thoughtful inputs in advance.

I have not seen an update to TurboTax since April 3, 2025. I am sure there has been some updates. I have stopped Turbotax and restarted it. Nothing. I have run check for updates, says there are none. I am rather sure that the program was updated since then. How do I get the latest updates?

The "up to 5 days early" offer means it can come anywhere between 1 and 5 days early. Or it may fail, in which case you won't be charged according to TurboTax. Some banks do not participate in same-day ACH deposits. If your refund doesn't come at least 1 day earlier than it would have come if it had come directly from the IRS, then TurboTax says they will not charge the $35. The clock would start ticking when the IRS has approved and is ready to release your funds as @ xmasbaby0 mentioned above. So watch the IRS refund tracker tool. If yours does not arrive at least 1 day early, then you "should" likely be notified by TurboTax. So if yours does not come at least 1 day early, watch for any emails with info about your $35.

Intuit support, you can not reproduce it in house because you probably has state component preinstalled by default. You can only reproduce it by 1) do transfer option with Federal without the state component, 2) start the state return. You shall see the state data was never transferred because there was no state component to accept the state transfer at stage 1, so in stage 2 we only get transfer from Federal return to state return, no prior state to current state return anymore. It does not to do with any diagnostic data, but the stage of software itself.

"Five days early" did not mean you get your refund in five days. If you expected your refund in five days after e-filing, you misunderstood. "5 days early" means you are supposed to receive your federal refund from one to five days sooner than the refund date shown on the IRS refund site. If it does not meet that "at least one day sooner" date, they are supposed to refund the $35 fee. You have to pay attention to the date on the IRS refund site. You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount (line 35a of your 2025 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund: https://www.irs.gov/refunds

There will be no federal penalties for not prepaying enough taxes during the year if withholding 1) and timely estimated tax payments equal or exceed 90% of your 2026 tax or 2) and timely estimated tax payments equal or exceed 100% of your 2025 tax (110% if your 2025 adjusted gross income was more than $150K) or 3) the balance due after subtracting taxes withheld from 90% of your 2026 tax is less than $1,000 or 4) your total 2026 taxes are less than $1,000 The lower of 1 or 2 is your required prepayments. 1 is difficult to know until the year-end, so option 2 is safer. Under the simplified method, 25% of your estimated tax payments must be paid in each period by 4/15, 6/15, 9/15 and 1/15/26. Unless you choose otherwise. 25% of your annual withholding is assumed to occur in each period, but you can use actual. Failing the safe harbors, you can use the annualized installment income method. This method requires knowing your income and deductions thru 3/31, 5/31, 8/31, and finally, the year-end, which is the same as the tax return. The income is annualized. taxes are computed on the annualized income and then de- annualized. Your cumulative tax payments (estimates and withholding) for each period must equal or exceed these amounts to avoid penalties. if you can increase withholding to meet any exception, then paying the estimates is not required. Some taxpayers choose to pay the penalties because they can make more on the money they keep than the penalties state laws vary

@Jessicajarratt Not sure what you are looking at that makes you think your state refund was used to pay your federal tax due. That is not possible. Did you get confused by the summary at the end that nets out the difference between a tax you owe and a refund you are getting? The only time a state refund is used to pay federal tax due is in a situation in which you owe back taxes to the IRS and the IRS offsets your state refund. Your current state refund is not being used to pay your 2025 federal tax due.

@tags0311 Or...perhaps this? Was it an email, that said your account was "Accessed" ? IF so, TTX sends that email to you if you download any files from your Online tax account...like a PDF of your tax return....usually sometime in the last 12-24 hours. Not a problem unless you didn't download anything from your Online account recently...then they give you a contact procedure to get hold of a TTX rep.
