Anyone receiving error form 8582 not available?

[bhim80]

Talked to a woman on HELP. She does not have any clue other than guessing. That is the type of help turbotax provides. The 8582 of Massachusetts is available on Massachusetts website. But nothing happens on turbo tax; it still says the form is not ready.  Time to move away from turbotax, it seems. Last year also, they gave me lot of problems saying that even basic forms are not available. Then why are they charging hundreds of dollars? somebody has to respond!

TT is worse than a government bureaucracy. The TT people you talk to you are essentially lowest paid and unskilled staff who just respond to you by reading from the Q&A templates. Anything for which there doesn’t exist a transcript, they will put you on hold for extended periods and in the end you will feel frustrated and leave the call. TT staff will close the case as soon as you put your phone down. TT told me that this issue will be resolved by Feb 24. Today, I checked and now the new time line for fixing this issue is March 3. If TT can’t fix this minor issue, they don’t deserve our business. I will say boycott them next year. I pledge to never use them again.

Today I received another false message from TT that form 8582 is available. Somewhere something is going wrong terribly!

Thank you for sharing your token. Our team is working to resolve the error message for Form 8582 Passive Activity Loss Limitations during Review of state returns and expects to have this updated by March 3rd. Please try your return in Review on or after March 4th.

• If you have the desktop version of TurboTax, please be sure it updates when you launch the program.
• If you have TurboTax Online and it still gives this error message, please sign out of TurboTax, clear your cache and cookies, or try another browser, then sign back in and take it through Review. Please see this Help article for directions to clear your cache and cookies. Clearing cache and cookies in your browser 

If the federal forms are all finalized and it is ready to e-file, you can choose to file just the federal return at this time, then come back when your state forms are ready and e-file that return.

1. When you get to the Here are your filing options screen
2. Select Change next to your state return
3. On the Change filing method screen
4. Select I'm not ready to file
5. Click Save 

Note, if you don't e-file them together, you do have to wait until the federal is accepted before you can e-file the state. Sometimes this takes a day or even two. Here is a TurboTax Help article with directions for when you return to file your state return.

This is incredibly frustrating! Seems this has been an issue for a month or longer. Need this fixed ASAP!
8582 should not be in state forms (period).

The latest information from TurboTax is that their software error will be fixed on 3/3/22 and to try and update your software and submit on 3/4/22.  Those following this problem may notice that TurboTax made the same promise with regard to their 02/17/22 release of Form 8582.  Prior direction from TurboTax support via phone to 1. Update your software, 2. reboot your computer, 3. Uninstall and reinstall TurboTax were all fruitless.  If you have rental property and need Form 8582, you will have to wait to see if this issue is resolved next Friday.  If you haven't filed your federal tax yet, you may want to consider purchasing HRBlock Premium tax software for about $45, uploading from your filed 2020 TurboTax and reentering your data.  I did this and it was a useful check in that I found two $20 mistakes in entry I had made which only effected my Virginia taxes.  If you have filed your federal with TurboTax already (as I have), then you still have the option of filing your state tax by mail as HRBlock does not have the software error that TurboTax has yet to resolve.   I plan to see if TurboTax allows me to file efile Virginia next Friday.  If not, I will file by mail with my HRBlock version.  Hope this helps.

Thanks! Very useful note. Time to dump TT for good if TT does not fix this issue by 3/3.

I applied the latest update from TT on Sunday, 2/27, and at least the application is saying I will be able to e-file on 3-3.  Hopefully, that is true as the information coming from TT has not been very reliable so far concerning this issue. I did go ahead and e-file my federal without my VA state.   This was not my preferred way of doing it, but TT support has suggested doing it to several people.  In the past, this was not an option.

There is a TT update this morning which allowed me to file Virginia state tax return with a final form 8582.  They did fix their issue (finally) today, 3 MAR 2022, as they had most recently promised.  I definitely didn't need the month of drama trying to resolve this issue.

Thank you for the update!!
I just logged in and yes, it looks like the 8582 problem with VA has been fixed.

Happy filing!

I was able to file today as well. Took longer than I would have liked for this to be resolved, but I'm happy it finally was. 

[kwmiller1961]

I also was able to fill my VA return today after the update from TT.   Unfortunately, because I did not file before the end of Feb it cost me $25 dollars to file.  If I could have filed on Sunday it would have cost me $20.

@LindseyLO - I was able to file my VA return after the 3/3 update.  Because I did not file before the end of Feb it cost an extra $5.  It would have been nice for TT to extend the discount period since it was TT's fault I could not file.
