    So it’s finally up and ready to complete. Sucks that even if you have a exemption number they charge you the penalty upfront. I’m hoping the state reviews the number and puts my money back. But atleast I was finally able to file

    The New Jersey tax return in TurboTax is not yet ready for filing. The healthcare coverage section of the New Jersey program is not complete yet. The full error message in the New Jersey review is "Your return requires the Worksheet L, Shared Responsibility Payment Calculation which has not been finalized. Do not file this return until this calculation is finalized in the upcoming release of TurboTax New Jersey." The healthcare section, including Worksheet L, will be finalized in a future update.

        You will have to wait for TurboTax to finalize the NJ tax return.

                  Frustrating but Turbo Tax can not release any forms until they are approved by Federal and state governments. Governments can take months to approve forms.  Please follow this NJ state link for the most recent information that we have. Once NJ publishes a form, Turbo Tax works fast and hard to get it into our system quickly.

                   

                  In addition, the IRS is not yet accepting returns and is still finalizing many of their forms. The IRS does not begin accepting returns until January 28.

                      I got the same message. It is very annoying. If everything wasnt ready then turbo shouldnt have given the impression it was ok to file.
