I just got off the phone with TT. The guy told me NOT to re-file until they fix the issue. It looks like a programing issue on their side. So DO NOT re-file until they notify us of the issue been fixed.

I called TT, and they told me it is a "known issue" and I should just go to the fix page, and refile and that it should go through with the second submission. I asked her if anyone who has done that has had their return accepted, and she said yet <insert side-eye> ....we will see if it works!
