Form 8853

When I run a Federal review it says everything is OK.  Then when I run the Review tab it gives me the following error message  :  I am using more than one worksheet for Page 1 of Form 8853. The IRS requires a statement to be filed with the return. Unfortunately we don't support this statement for e-filing.

 

Last year I had no problems filing.

    I would attempt to change the data manually for your Archer MSAs and/or Long-Term Care Insurance Contracts first.

     

    If this does not work for you I would delete Form 8853, Archer MSAs and Long-Term Care Insurance Contracts, from the return and re-enter the data.

     

     

    • In the left-hand black menu, choose Tax Tools then Tools.
    •  Click on Delete a Form from the window that pops up.
    •  You should now see the Review Form List. Scroll down the list and click Delete on Form 8853.
    • You may get a pop up telling you additional worksheets and forms are being deleted. Approve and click delete.
    • You should come back to the Review Form List. Scroll to the bottom and click Continue with My Return.

    This did not help me at all.  Manually deleted the form with no change. Filled out a complete new form with the same results.  Have no idea what to try next.
