The error could be due to missing information, the name has too many characters, or invalid characters. The name that you enter on the return, should match the information on your Social Security card, but if your name is too long, then try to enter it as close as it is on your Social Security Card. To correct your name on your return, go back to the Personal Info section of your return.

If TurboTax is not letting you continue, you can try the following:

Go out of your program and go back in.
Clear your cache and cookies.
Try a different Web Browser.

If you are using TurboTax Desktop make sure all updates have been run on your program. You can do this by clicking on "Online" in the black bar across the top of your TurboTax screen. And then select "Check for Updates".

If you have any additional questions or information regarding this please return to TurboTax Community and we would be glad to help.
