Pension deduction worksheet/early w/draw due to Covid-19. Retirement distribution. Federal Amount. When will this be fixed?

[mreschke71]

Why do I keep getting an error for my Michigan return? It states, "Pension Deduction Worksheet: Federal Amount we're still working on updates related to retirement distributions that qualify for disaster or covid relief. You can keep working on your return and we'll remove this message when it's ready." I can not go any further. I already had to wait until 2/25/2021 for the 8915E form and now I am being stopped by this. I don't want to have to mail in my return because it is quicker to e-file. Is there anyway around this error. Very Frustrating.

I'm in the same boat. Waiting on my refund, and would rather just file together so I don't have to do a separate filing with State. Intuit, please let us know when this will be fixed. Earliest I can schedule a "Talk with an Expert" is March 10. that's a bit ridiculous.

I managed to get through to someone on chat. They said ETA is March 4 for this to be updated. I guess will just have to check back next week... sigh. I could really use that money sooner than later.

Today March 4th, I tried to e-file again and the same error.

Same thing happened to me as well in WI.  Turbo Tax updated this morning but the same error message is there stating..."Continue to work on the rest of your return..."  I'm finished but can't e-file until this ONE error is corrected.

Anyone have an update on this error?

You need to delete the 1099-R that was previously entered, and re-enter Form 1099-R.

I didn’t work for me.

Didn't work for me either

I've already filed my federal taxes,  Can I delete the 1099-R on the federal entry screen to fix my state tax?

...also have come to this dead halt in my filing with this issue. 

We'll have to reach out to someone??

Same issue -  Michigan return and covid distributions on 1099-R.  Stuck on Needs Review FIX button keeps cycling and won't allow moving forward to finish return.  Client WANTS refund and has been patiently waiting since February 20. The 8915-E fix happened by Feb 25, but not for the states.

Just tried deleting the 1099-R and re-entering it. Also tried setting taxability for the current year rather than over 3-years. Neither approach works. ANYONE have any clue when this will get beyond the message (see below)?

I'm having the same issue.... TurboTax didn't have a problem pulling the fees out of my bank... and then telling me I couldn't file until it was fixed though..........
