It will re-add the form if the election to defer self-employment taxes was made on your federal input screens. You must cancel your election to defer taxes. 

 

Please follow these steps in TurboTax to change your election:

  1. Open your return.
  2. Click Federal on the left hand side. 
  3. Click Deductions and Credits on the top of the page.
  4. On the page Tax Breaks, scroll down until you see Tax relief related to Covid-19.
  5. Click Revisit next to Self-employment tax deferral
  6. Answer no to the question Do you want more time to pay self-employment taxes?

I am getting the same error and cannot e-file until it's fixed? I click "no entry" but the software won't take. I too tried the suggested steps above, and nothing. Any other suggestions??

Has this ever been fixed? I have tried the solution suggested, and it is still not working.

I'm having this problem, and I've tried every solution I can find on the internet. Hoping to get this thread going again.
