I am having the same issue as well... I'm in North Carolina.  Not sure if on the Fed or State side.  However, it was very disappointing not able to say " I finished our taxes honey ".  Never had an issue in 10+ years of using Turbo.  Hopefully, it will be fixed very soon.  Glad to know it is a Known Issue.  I'll keep trying every morning I guess ?

The North Carolina Individual Income Tax Return Form D-400 is not yet available for e-filing.  It is estimated to be available on 02/24/2022

Go to this TurboTax website for North Carolina state forms availability - https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotax_nc_online_individual.html

If you want to e-file your federal tax return now then change how you file the NC state return.  This assumes that all of the forms and schedules included in your federal tax return are available for e-filing.

If using the TurboTax online editions click on File on the left side of the online program screen.  On Step 3 of the File section click on Start or Revisit.  Select the button File by Mail.  Then change the filing status of the state return.

After the federal return is e-filed and accepted by the IRS you can e-file the state return when it is available for e-filing.  Just use the same procedure and change the state return back to e-filing.

I still keep getting the same error message for over a week now that my 2021 tax return transmission is not available. I don’t think it’s fair that I have to pay to file my taxes with Turbo Tax when there is an issue on the end.

Are you also filing a North Carolina return along with the Federal tax return?

Yeah when does this get fixed - so we all can transmit our returns to our respective states ? 

Or least tell what the issue is and expected timeframe to fix.

Transmitted the Federal separately already, just need to send in the one to NC now.

I was able to FINALLY e file but could only file the federal. Will have to go back and file the nc state when it becomes available

Is this North Carolina by any chance? 

Some NC forms (including the main Form D-400) are not yet finalized and available for efiling.   Projected availability date is 2/24/2022, according to the availability tables:

State Forms Availability Table:
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/forms/help/state-forms-availability-table-for-turbotax-individual-...

If you wish, you can efile the Federal return now (if all your Fed forms are available) and efile the NC state return later.  To do that, you would need to temporarily change the filing method for the state return and tell TurboTax that you intend to "mail" the state return.  Then when the state forms are available you can switch the method back to efile.

If you need to check on Federal forms:
