I am having a similar issue with Premier.  In the Contribution Worksheet I entered $23,500 as my 401(k) elective deferrals but I get an error message that says taxpayer elective referrals to an individual 401(k) plan should not be greater than $23,500.   I get the same error message, even if I input a much smaller number.    TurboTax says that my software is fully up-to-date.   Any thoughts?   thanks  

Really? This is the first time I've heard of this executive order. I've found the relevant area in the PDF where the string, "Electronic Filing Instructions" is. And most significantly, it says:   Your tax refund should be mailed to you Refund within three to four weeks after your return is accepted.   (Emphasis is mine) OK, that text was likely generated by TurboTax/Intuit. I don't know when that executive order went into effect, but I would think that TurboTax SHOULD have known about that way in advance!! They should have wanted users, like me, who have for many years always had Federal income tax refunds mailed to me. They should have had a popup something to the effect that only under rare conditions would an exception be allowed, otherwise you must use direct deposit.   The letter I got was IRS Notice CP53E   Well, thank you.

I suspect that the error message is wrong.  I'm receiving it as well.  I double checked my two college kids and verified that they are both dependents, but this tax year my income exceeded the education credit income limits ($180,000), whereas last tax year it didn't, so I was able to claim the credit.  I think that TT Online may be legitimately disallowing it, but with a bad error message.

I had to uninstall Turbo Tax, then reinstall it.  Then it stopped crashing, but it did count each of the crashes against my five allowed e-files.  Thankfully I only need to file two returns so the 3 crashes counting against my 5 didn't end up hindering me. 

Hi, I have the same problem that everyone else is reporting here. I have been in IT for 30 years. Bugs happen, but when they do, it is really bad form to blame it on the users. This is clearly a TurboTax bug. Also, at least in my case, when you say: >> Look at your Form 1040 and see if line 6b was left blank due to that mistake.   My line 6b "Taxable amount" of social security is not blank but calculated and shown as $0 by TurboTax. It should have been taxable. This is the reason my big refund went to a big amount owed. TurboTax should step up and explain that this is/was a bug.
