can't e file 1041 code 54

bvancleve · ‎February 3, 2026

I see lots of requests for help on e filing 1041 forms but no response from intuit.

Be nice if someone would give an update on the status of this problem and an estimated time to fix

This experience was resolved in the last software update. Please be sure to allow updates when you restart TurboTax Business.

No the last update was 1-31-26 it was successfully installed. I tried to file after the install when I got the error.

I just checked again there are no new updates to install. Something else is causing this problem. I see other users had success with detaching form 8453 and doing a new one. I will be giving that a try. but the problem was certainly not fixed in the last update.
