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?

    Same issue, I reached out to them by phone. And after 20 minutes the Lady told me that is the E-File option was not there then she guesses I will have to file by Mail. Glad to see I'm not the only one having the issue.  Here is the phone number I called. Maybe if some of you call and report the issue they will fix it.

    Speaking with them now and will share what I'm told once the specialist reviews my case.

    Same problem here. States that I don't have a SSN or EIC for dependent care providers but I did not claim any dependent care expenses.

    Same issue as well, lots of us are experiencing this.   Probably they will not fix it in time for  most of us.

    Same issue here. Says I cannot e-file due to missing SSN for dependent care provider, which is $0 on federal return.

    Does TurboTax monitor these chatrooms for errors they have created?

    Hope the state has a lot of auditors on hand if every Kentucky TurboTax user has to mail their returns in.

    Same issue.  I talked with a support specialist.  They did not have an answer and transferred me to a live tax advisor, but an automated line picked up and required me to pay an additional $99 (plus state fees) for the consult.  Wasn't willing to do that because I think this is TurboTax's error, so I'm hoping they will log the issue and fix it.

    I am receiving the same message. I have deleted and filled out my whole return twice now,  Hoping TurboTax resolves this issue or I will use a different service.

    Same here. I sent email , and got a generic response about upgrading for live chat.

    I talked to a live specialist last night and they stated its a glitch on their end and it  hopefully should be fixed today.

    I am having the same issue.  I found a post from an 'expert' who stated they are aware and working on a resolution.  I just signed up for updates as they occur.  I will delay my e-filing until they resolve.

    Same issue.. has anyone gone on to file federal and wait on state or do you think that would cause more issues?

    Turbotax is working to resolve the issue so I am waiting so I can file both together.
