This error is related to the Form 1095-A section. There was an issue with the question about dependent income. That has been resolved with the most recent update. If you go through the 1095-A section again, you will see a new question.

 

Here is how to review the section:

  1. Sign in to your account and click Fix my return.
  2. Use the search box in the upper right corner to search for 1095A.
  3. Click Jump to 1095-A.
  4. Answer the first question, Yes.
  5. There will be a new question about dependent's income, be sure to answer it. 
  6. Continue through the section, until it returns you to Your tax breaks.
  7. Select Review from the left side menu.
  8. Keep going until you submit your return again.

What if my dependent is 4 years old and isn't filing a separate tax return? Do we still check mark the question yes and enter the dependents income?

Hi There,

Got the same Code after 2 attempts.

    So, after 2 rejections (02/18/20 and 02-20-20) from the irs with the same issue. I finally figured it out, but i waited for at least today (02/21/20) for the TT promised update, only to find out that there were no updates/changes at all. So here's what i did, which TT support can't even figure it out.

1. If you already updated your Turbo Tax before Feb. 20 or later, forget the updating process, it's no use!

2. Open your rejected Tax Return.

3. Switch to Forms

4. Select Form 8962

5. Enter 0 on PartI 2b (dependent modified AGI) in my case it's "0" because my dependent has no income}

6. Save your Returns and complete the re-transmission.

I re-transmitted mine at !:54 today (2-21-20) (Central Time) and in less than 30 mins, it was accepted.

"Hey TT please do your job efficiently, in solving this issue"

How do you do step 3 - Switch to forms?

On your opened Tax return at Turbo tax app. Look for the  icon  "Forms" on the upper right corner

of the screen. Just click Forms and it will switch to forms which will appear on the left side. From there

you can select the form 8962, and edit or enter the necessary figure at Part I  line2b. That is your dependent

AGI. On my case is 0 because my dependent is not working yet. Turbo Tax does not put 0 when there's nothing to put. But IRS obviously want figures there, the reasonwhy  many efiled tax returns were rejected. Good luck!

How do you open your return? I can fix it but it says to do a manual fix you must be on a CD version and manual fixes can not be completed online. Thanks!

This error should be corrected.  You might need to delete your 1095-A and re-enter it.  If you have dependents, you should look for this box.
