Trouble e-filing GA Tax Form 600-S for S Corp

[ss]

I have tried multiple times to e-file 600-S form for my S-Corp and keep getting the message "Tax Year 2023 transmissions are not available.  TurboTax Business is not ready to process Tax Year 2023 for this return."

Initially saw here that e-filing would be available 3/1, now it says 3/8, but still no luck: https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotaxbusiness_ga_windows_scorp.h...

I called GA Dept of Revenue and they say they've been accepting e-filing of this form from others without any issues. 

Advice/fixes appreciated.

I hv the same isasue. I tried deleting the unsupported forms 8453-S and IT-303 but no luck. I guess I am out the 20$ efile fee and will be mailing the GA return. Im sure TT will not give refund.

Very frustrating. I have wasted about 2 hours on the phone with TT support...the last rep I spoke with said he would discuss with his supervisor and call me back. That was two days ago! Completely unacceptable...

Although the Forms Availability Table for TurboTax Business indicates that the Georgia State Income modules for all business entities are ready for filing, recent developments have delayed implementation. Since we have not been given an estimated release date, you may wish to consider requesting an extension of time to file. 

According to the Georgia Department of Revenue, if you have a filed a Federal extension (Form 7004) by the original due date of your return, you will be granted an additional 6 months to file your Georgia return.

Corporate Due Dates

For taxable years beginning on or before January 1, 2016, corporate income tax returns are due on or before the 15th day of the 3rd month following the close of the taxable year with the exception of an extension.

I have already e-filed the Federal return. Now you are suggesting we file for a Federal extension so we can wait and see if TT will possibly get e-file working in Georgia after the 3/15 deadline??

Since you have already e-filed your federal return, you can go directly to the Georgia Department of Revenue site to obtain Form IT-303, Application for Extension of Time for Filing.  You can also generate this form within TurboTax in the state interview section.  You will need to print and mail the form to Georgia.

To access the extension form, proceed through the state interview screens in TurboTax.

When asked "Do you want to prepare a Georgia extension?", select Yes.

You will be prompted to print and mail the state extension form.

"Recent developments have delayed implementation" is ridiculously (and I assume intentionally) vague and unhelpful. Sounds like it's an issue with TT software and there is no timeline for correcting this issue, yet we are being encouraged to file an extension without information or a guarantee as to when this issue will be resolved.
