Is Past midnight so April 16 this is not cool at all.   The Program is up to date, I tried 2 different computers, are the servers overwealmed or what is the problem I transmitted 4 Returns  for family members  Yesterday with no issue I'm mainly a Windows person--Mac, not so much.  Something in your Internet chain could also create a same problem on 2 computers.   If you're using a VPN, try without.   If you're using wireless, try a wired connection.  Try rebooting all devices in your Internet system--modem, router, computer.   If it doesn't transmit in several minutes, it's not likely to do so.  There's no need to wait 4 hours.   Are you using any unusual router/firewall device?

Really appreciate your help.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Tax years 2020 and 2021 are no longer supported by TurboTax.   You can check to see if any TurboTax competitors can still prepare them.  Or you can download forms for 2020 and 2021 from the IRS and state websites and prepare manually.  Or you can hire a tax professional to prepare them.   I don't know the context for your question about "1099."   Does that mean you need to prepare a 1099 form to give someone else,  or do you have a 1099 that you need to report as your income?   There are several types of 1099 forms, and again, it depends on the tax year.

Same happened to me filing in 2026. Attempted to file jointly with my wife under her username. When we got to the end the process got messed up (computer glitch). We weren't sure if it went through so I decided to attempt it under my username. When we got to end and purchase it for $275, TurboTax said there was a duplicate tax return with my SSN on it. Luckily that meant the other form went through. When we asked for a refund because it double billed us I was told that there was nothing they could do and would not refund me. TurboTax has truly let us down. We will not be using this service next year as they completely failed customer service. We filed once, was billed twice, and told it's our fault. 

If you need extra time, filing an extension by April 15, 2026, moves your submission deadline to October 15. But remember any taxes owed are still due in full by the original April 15 date.   There's no rush to file an Amendment.  It takes up to 16 weeks to process and doesn't 'catch up' and correct your original filing.  @melanie-abigail01 

You can e-file your extension through our Easy Extension website.   An extension does not give you extra time to pay your taxes, which are due on April 15, 2026.  Even if you can't pay your taxes by the deadline, file an extension anyway so you can avoid the late-filing penalty.       How do I file an IRS tax extension?   See all options for filing an extension here.   State Extensions
