Can’t Efile 2022 returns using turbo tax desktop

I paid for TurboTax desktop deluxe and business but when I try to Efile (which is the main reason I bought it), it says the date has passed. It also opens a place for a signature and it shows the current date and says the signature date must be before 12/31/2023. There is no explanation for this signature restriction and Joe it is related to the fact Efile is not available. 

I read that once IRS will start receiving tax return for 2023 people will be able to Efile again 2022. Will turbo tax desktop allow me to Efile then or am I stuck now with only paper option?

Turbotax has permanently closed efiling for 2022. you will need to print, sign, date and mail the return. 

When mailing use a method where you can track it.
