Form 8889 is a part of your tax return that is created when you have contributions to or withdrawals from a health savings account (HSA).  Within Turbotax, 8889-T refers to the taxpayer's HSA and 8889-S refers to a spouse's HSA.  If you and your spouse have HSA accounts you need to run the HSA interview twice, once for each of you.   If you are single, there was a very early bug that created a spouse form by mistake.  You need to go to the tax tools menu, choose Delete a Form, delete all copies of form 8889 (T and S) and then run the HSA interview again.

If you e-filed a tax return using TurboTax, you generally can't e-file another return using the same Social Security number for the same tax year because the IRS system will reject it.   If you filed two different returns for two separate tax years, you should keep those filings separate as each tax year requires its own return on the correct form.

You will have to wait for the IRS to either Accept or Reject your filed federal tax return. If the return is rejected you can make the necessary changes and e-file again. If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return. Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

SteamTrain - Thank you for your advice.     Actually, I was using the interview for the entire data entry using the complete interview option.    After getting flagged by the TT error check at the end, the MX error appeared.  That is when I went into the compiled 1099-INT form to investigate, and whoops there it was - MX.  I never entered it!  I entered each state's digraph (eight states) that paid my broker interest in 2025, none of which was MX.  TT manufactured that code and plopped it into the 1099-INT compiled summary form for my broker.    This now poses four options - either file with MX, enter form and change to XX, clear it and leave it blank, or insert the state digraph for the state that paid the highest interest?   A puzzler for sure.
