When doing the review to e file an error popped up? It said I had an error of a missing EIN or SSN for the dependent care credit and was not eligible to e file. However, I did not claim this credit and it never offered me an option to correct it. I have been through everything multiple times now and can't find it anywhere. What can I do so I can e file this return?

    I'm having the same issue as well.  I have had two staff members looking in to this as well.  I was able to file in KY electronically last year too.  Please let us know when this is fixed.  The customer service is Awesome.

    I am having the same issue.  I do not have child care but I cannot seem to correct this issue.  I have used Turbo Tax for years and have never had an issue like this one happen.

    Got the KY State Error Message also, should I go ahead and E-file my Federal then now and come back to E-file State later. That option is available but I wonder if I would need to fix my Federal side of things first when Turbo Tax gets this fixed.  If I E-file Federal now, I can't go back in fix anything if needed without doing an Amended Return later.  Is this correct what I am thinking?

    I came here yesterday to ask the same thing. I’m almost afraid to file federal and come back later to state because what if something else is wrong. I am definitely not trying to give myself more of a headache after this ordeal. And They keep directing us to that link that states the issue is resolved. Super aggravated at this point.

    I got this exact same message too. Then I was like okay fine, so I'll mail it in, whatever, but TurboTax still wants to pay for the state fee. Jokes on them. If I can't submit it for e-filing, they shouldn't get a penny for state because this is clearly an issue on their end. I don't even have children, nor did I claim any, they can clearly see that. TurboTax is drunk, go home.

    I caved and paid the extra just to talk to a human. ZERO help. Just to be told it’s something on their end and nothing I did. But no one offered me my money back. All I got was the generic “sign up for email updates” I also noticed that post was 3days ago. So they could have let us know there was a problem. Seems like a shady way to get us to “upgrade” and pay more.
