You may be able to delete the worksheet if you don't need it. Follow these steps to delete a worksheet in TurboTax:

 

  1. Click on Tax Tools in the left menu bar

No "Educator..." form exists where you suggest; ergo, it can't be deleted. To be sure we're all on the same page, @ThomasM125, which form are you specifically suggesting be deleted?

there is no option to delete it ! i tried what thomas wrote but there’s no way to delete it , i tried contacted turbo experts but they all tell me it’s required & no way to delete it & when i try to tell them i have no answer for it they end up just ending the chat due to “ inactivity” when i’ve been in the chat the entire time

I am having the exact same issue! Not a teacher and it will not let me file, keeps saying it is an error.

Looks like another way for turbo tax to make money by making people with this error pay for live service. You'd think they'd learn their lessons after last years law suit but here we are again with a company who loves to take your tax return money

Exactly what I was thinking!!! Literally I have the most basic W2, and never been a teacher and put laborer as my occupation. Should be simple!!!!

Many other folks and I over on this thread have reported the same issue - apparently someone received intel from Turbotax that this is a system error and should be fixed by Monday (I'm assuming 2/13). Who knows if they'll stick to that but at the very least y'all aren't alone in this headache!

I'm having the same issue and it's super frustrating. It seems this is a way that turbo tax forces us to pay to chat. I'm just going to file with tax slayer. I refuse to be scammed
