Where or how can you print out the info. and forms that you already fill out via Turbo Tax in case paper filing is the only option?

In the File interview, choose file by mail.

Thank you Macuser.  Do I need to pay Turbo Tax for that?

For the paid online versions the cost is the same whether e-filed or mail filled - the cost is for the use of the software.   You cannot print until you pay.

I don't know why you people are going through the trouble of paper filing. I gave TurboTax until last Friday to fix this glitch (how hard can it be?). When they updated this page with the solution being to paper file, I called them up, got a refund, and used a competitor (initials T and A). Efiled without an issue a few hours later. When I called up Intuit to get the refund I didn't even reference this issue. I just said I would not be using their service. Piece of cake.

@mrm312 - The 4/5 update did not fix it.  The current workaround it to print ans mail.

Apologies, I read your comment from 2 days ago and interpreted that to mean you were able to do it - "It appears to be fixed with the desktop update.  Online should be updated today - before midnight."

I could finally get all the way to the Transmit now button that I did not want to press and file a dummy tax return.   It seems that if the Transmit now button is pressed TT makes a final error check and when  it finds that error it aborts the transmission and tells you to fix the error.

I called support again last night and this time they did not indicate that it will be fixed, they are just saying print and mail.  So I got a refund and did the painful printout.  Not doing this again next year.....
