I'm active duty and can claim my wife on my home state under 2018 Military Spouse ResidencyRelief Act. Why does the Important information link not work on TurboTax?

The law is very new.  However, if she has to file a state return for her previous state to claim a refund, it is best to mail in the return with the words "Veterans Benefits and Transitions Act of 2018" and her new SLR that she claims with you.  It is likely that the previous state cannot process the return through e-filing.
