This is a known issue with TurboTax and is under investigation. I'll update you in this thread with any new information I receive. So sorry for the inconvenience.

@redinvisible Today TurboTax has released an article regarding this issue. It is under investigation and developers are working to resolve the problem. See the article I'm linking below to sign up for email notification when the issue has been resolved. So sorry for the inconvenience.

Why is Form 8915A-T preventing me from e-filing? (intuit.com)

There should be a page in the step-by-step section of your return where you can answer the question about disaster distributions with 'No'. If you entered any Form 1099-R in your return you will have already seen that question one time, but there is another one out there for users who did not enter any Form 1099-R information.

Please try the following steps if you are using TurboTax Online to see if the error message will clear:

Go to Federal on the left side of the screen
Go to Wages & Income at the top of the screen
Scroll to the bottom of the section without making any changes and click Wrap Up Income
Continue moving forward until you see a question about whether you took a disaster distribution in 2020 and select 'No'
Run the Federal Review again to see if the error has cleared

Please try the following steps if you are using a CD/downloaded version of TurboTax:

Go to Wages & Income at the top of the screen (or Personal > Personal Income)
Click I'll choose what I work on
Scroll to the bottom of the section without making any changes and click Done with Income
Continue moving forward until you see a question about whether you took a disaster distribution in 2020 and select 'No'
Run the Federal Review again to see if the error has cleared

If you have tried these steps and you did not see a question about the disaster distributions in 2020, then repeat the steps for the Deductions & Credits section of your return until the question is located.
