Massachusetts Schedule INC

[zagatstein]

What is this and why is it blocking me from filing my MA taxes? I only have a W2 for this job (my only job) and won't be getting any other forms from my employer (and have no self-employment income, and thus no 1099 to file). Anyone know why this error is occurring and how to fix it?

[zagatstein]

I've added a screenshot of the specific error/problem. Help?

[kimmerz781]

Yes it's saying the same for me

[zagatstein]

So is this some kind of universal error? Because I can't find a reference to this form anywhere online, whether on this site or elsewhere.

[kimmerz781]

I have no idea I've never had this problem before n this is my 4th year doing my taxes in this site

[zagatstein]

This is the third year for me, and literally nothing has changed; I have the same job, the same insurance information, the same salary. Very frustrating.

[kimmerz781]

Same here hopefully they can fix it I keep checking everyday cause I dunno how 2 file by mail n my federal was accepted

[seanridesbikes8]

also having this problem.. 3rd year, nothings changed

Since you have a W-2, the form is part of your return.

[zagatstein]

So why is it saying I can't efile it? It it just an issue with it being too early to file for MA?

[Karca]

Sorry, the messaging on the screen is not clear.  It just means that's a non-e-filable form.  You do not need it for e-filing.  It is not blocking you from e-filing.  If you were to paper file, yes that would block you since it's not ready right now but will be ready in a few days.

Okay, that helps a bit; thanks! Do you know if this is a new requirement for this tax year? I haven't encountered this form/message in prior years, and as I stated in the thread above, nothing has changed with my employer/salary/filing status.

[Karca]

Not a new requirement. Always has happened behind the scenes.  Just displaying it to our customers so it's more transparent.

[zagatstein]

Great. Thanks for your help!
