Cannot efile due to Schedule IW errors

I am using Home & Business desktop for my 2025 return. I have a single member LLC that is disregarded for tax purposes. I cannot e-file my Cailfornia return because Schedule IW lines 3b and 3c return errors that indicate they must be filled. These amounts should be zero because they do not apply, but -0- and "None" are not allowed as values for these lines. If I continue past these flagged fields e-filing returns back to these errors, so I am stuck. If this is not supported in Home & Business then how do you handle single member disregarded LLCs?

We have tested this experience and confirm the form error you describe. It would be helpful to have a TurboTax ".tax2025" file to test this issue further.

 

If you would be willing to send us a “diagnostic” file that has your “numbers” but not your personal information, please follow these instructions: 

 

In TurboTax Desktop, open your return and go to Online in the TurboTax header. (On a Mac computer, choose Share or Help.)

  1. Choose Send Tax File to Agent.
  2. You will see a message explaining what the diagnostic copy is.  Click Send on this screen and wait for the Token number to appear.
  3. Reply to this thread with a screenshot of your Token number (this avoids Community filters for numbers with a dash) and tag (@) the Expert requesting the token from you.
  4. Please include any States that are part of your return - this is VERY important.

If we are able to determine the cause, we'll reply here and possibly provide you with a resolution.
