2025 GA Partnership Return not ready to efile

cpilk — Sun, 22 Feb 2026 13:35:46 GMT

As of today, 2/22/26, I'm still unable to efile my GA partnership returns. The message says "Tax Year 2025 transmissions are not available. TurboTax Business is not ready to process Tax Year 2025 for this return." The website for forms availability says GA partnership forms were due to be ready on 2/20/26.

Anyone have any idea when these forms can be efiled?

That didn't work :(

I installed it and got the same message.

I have the same issue. This webpage shows the forms being available on 20 Feb 26 but I still can't file the GA forms. https://form-status.app.intuit.com/tax-forms-availability/formsavailability?albRedirect=true&product=Turbotax_online&bu=cg

I recall a similar issue last year with at least one form for e-filing which was resolved only days before the March 16th deadline.

TurboTax - Please provide an accurate date for us

Same issue. Attempted to e-file Federal and GA State partnership returns. Received the same error message as the original poster.

TURBOTAX - when will we be able to e-file?

FYI - The Federal Partnership return will e-file if you deselect the GA e-file in TT. It's GA that is the problem.

Same issue. Still unable to efile 2025 Georgia Partnership returns. Tried various tricks like selecting "file by mail", then going back to select efile. Worked for Federal filing but not Georgia. Turbotax is fully updated.

I'm receiving the same message when trying to file. Has this been fixed yet? I did the update and still the same error. Would like to E-file, vs having to print all the forms out and post them.

If I do this and e-file federal now, can I e-file the GA returns by themselves when GA stuff is ready? Just want to confirm that before I send the federal return.

Any other ideas Melinda? The phone rep says that TurboTax doesn’t know what the issue is and doesn’t know if/when it will be resolved. Do you know anything different? Thanks.

Hi - Yes, you can file your Federal 1065 now by deselecting the state return and go back into TT later to file GA.

Turbotax - You initially replied to the original posters question the same day suggesting the manual update which didn't work. No reply since to the original poster or to the rest of us that have confirmed the same problem . Your tax form availability checker still shows the GA forms being available for e-file on 20 Feb 26 which is obviously not the case. Please provide a date when GA e-file will be ready.

The lack of response to customers who paid for the Federal Business software and then an additional fee for the State forms is quickly becoming unacceptable. The software isn't cheap and the return deadline is only about 3 weeks away. There are other tax return products on the market so please consider supporting your loyal customers to retain our business. A simple acknowledgment of the problem would go a long way. It would be a nice gesture to refund the price of the GA state software or provide a future credit for our trouble.

I'm having the same issue - the lack of guidance or explanation from TurboTax is very annoying.

Having the same issue with GA State return. Spent an hour yesterday on the phone with support, an hour before calling them, and an hour today. Still stuck...

Anyone find a root cause or a solution?

"Tax Year 2025 transmissions are not available"

Yep I also have the same problem. I also posted a question regarding the same issue. Here is my post:

I was able to transmit the federal return F1065 without issue after the Georgia state returns were available in TurboTax Business. However I continue to get the following message when trying to transmit the Georgia return.

Tax year 2025 transmissions are not available. TurboTax Business is not ready to process tax year 2025 for this file.

Here is the link to check the availability of the various State returns for TurboTax

https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotaxbusiness_states_windows_sel...

The site shows for Georgia partnerships the form 700 (equivalent to F 1065 federal ) would be ready 2/20/2026 . Has this date been delayed ? or is there another problem.

As a long time user I know of the various tricks such as updating the software as if it doesn't already do that when you start the program or clear the cookies. I've also checked the entries to insure there is a value in boxes. TurboTax likes to use a blank box when the value entered is zero and sometimes when you haven't entered a value it causes problems.

I agree with a comment from other uses that acknowledging the problem would help. I want to believe TurboTax knows who we are and our email addresses. With March 15 (17) coming up quick I don't want to have to file an extension. My other concern is that its a problem not picked up by the error checking. That I have a extra space with a number or left a blank and I will keep trying for the next six months trying to efile when its a problem with my file. My federal F1065 was transmitted and accepted without any problems.

It appears several of us are having problems transmitting Georgia Partnership returns. The product availability date for Georgia continues to show 2/20/26. Today is 2/25/26. I've checked for updates and TurboTax tells me I'm up to date. Current installed updates show program up date as of 2/18/26 and Georgia Partnership as of 2/12/26.
So tell me if the last Georgia update was 2/12/26 and the forms were available on 2/20/26, should the last Georgia partnership update be after 2/20/26?

I just successfully e-filed my GA 700/1065 forms. I tried earlier this morning and received the same error as before. I had also checked that my program was up to date this morning, which it was. I simply went back into the TT program after 1800 ET (6pm) , which was still open on my PC, and hit transmit. Bingo it worked.

My bet is the problem was on TT's back-end/gateway that handles the e-filing as nothing changed on my PC between for the past couple of days. I didn't even have to close and reopen TT.

I just checked here: https://form-status.app.intuit.com/tax-forms-availability/formsavailability?albRedirect=true&product=Turbotax_online&bu=cg and the page now shows the forms are ready.

Good luck. Please report back if you can e-file to give others an idea whether this was a random event for me or if TT has resolved the problem without informing us.

Mine just went through too. Woo hoooo! I didn't do anything either... no update, had TT open from this morning. I had it open on the "transmit now" screen already. I hit the transmit button and it went through.

2PM update 2/25/26 I did not close the TurboTax file before lunch. Came back after a short nap and the transmit button screen was still up. Rather than close I tried again ( I just love rejection and error messages). This time it transmitted.
I don't know if it was lunch, the nap, all the posts about the problem, or they finally fixed the problem, but it worked. 🤣

akg0101 — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 03:49:01 GMT

Success, at last! My TT was still open on the Transmit screen for GA return. I clicked on the Transmit Returns Now button and it went through. So the fix was indeed done on the back end by TT.

For everyone here, I file GA partnership taxes directly with the GA Tax Center. As of this morning, 2/26/26 the GTC STILL is not allowing me to file thru their site. The form is not available, no way to even start. So most likely, its been a GA issue, not TT. If they've just fixed it, delays will probably exist as the backlog of TT users trying to file will cause some slowdowns.
