Software problem, not a tax misunderstanding.
I am working through my NY State Return and on form IT-204, pages 6-9, line 117c asks if our partnership is part of another partnership. I select "No" for 117c, because the answer is no. Despite selecting no, Turbotax Business (desktop version, Windows), autofills my Business name and Ein in the following line, which should only be filled out if "Yes" is selected for 117c, for the names/EINs of whatever other partnership might be involved.
Upon filing, this obviously gets flagged and disallows me from continuing to file the return.
I have tried several times to delete the form, override it, and re-create in multiple ways, including deleting the entire IT-204, but I always get the same exact problem.
Turbotax is taking my Business Name & EIN from the Federal Return, populating it into my State Return Worksheet, and it's trickling down to this obscure field and not letting me override. I don't want to perform an override because I want to e-file. That's kind of the point!
I would like to send a diagnostic copy and have someone look at this before I spend another few hours trying to troubleshoot it myself.
