This appears to be a turbotax software issue but not sure.

That rejection code is related to the entry of your W-2. Double-check your entries and make sure all information is correct. If the information is correct, then delete your W-2 and manually enter it. You will also want to log completely out of the TurboTax website, then clear your browser's cache and delete cookies before attempting to file again.

I followed the instructions and that didn't fix my error. The error listed on the return says:

The return cannot be electronically filed due to a processing error related to the other income items listed on 1040 Schedule 1, line 8.

The issue will be resolved, but there is currently no estimated date for when the update will be available.

It suggests I either wait a few weeks and attempt to resubmit or print and file by mail.

Is this something Turbotax is going to fix?

Sorry, this is an IRS error dealing with processing W2s and labeling them as statutory employees. They have said they are working on a fix but they have not given a solid date. I would try again on the 7th (there are supposed to be a number of fixes from the IRS on the 6th). Once it goes through please come back here and let us know! There are a lot of folks in the same boat as you.
