i can not efile because of form 8582

I got a three minute update from TT on Maryland Taxes this morning, February 12 @10AM. Finally I was able to print my Maryland Tax Return. I wish to thank all who joined me in this effort. I had contact on a regular basis with a very nice lady in the Maryland Comptroller's E-File division. She worked very hard on the issue and  informed this morning (a Saturday!) that yesterday the State had approved TT's changes to the Maryland Tax Forms. Truly a team effort!

 

 

I can not e-file  because the system keeps asking me to complete IRS form 8582 which has no meaning to me.

The  8582 should be functional in the next couple of days.

 

But the TT program doesn't support the 8621 ...

I understand that.  But the program is saying I need one when I don't.  I don't know where the idea generated from.

I am having the same issue.  It appears to be connected to my Maryland State tax filing.  I am getting the following message when I try to complete the return and efile Federal and State taxes:

"Form 8582: Activity Description - This form is not ready to be filed due a (sic) change in the federal form. It should be available soon."

 

I do not file form 8582.  I do not have any passive activities.  What's going on?

Last year it was the schedule C and now this form 8582.  I hope its ready soon....because its stopping me as well and I do not even own rental properties. Does anyone know if this is limited to just us in MD?

I think I found the answer--In Maryland there is a problem with State Tax Division. I got around the problem, at least for now by NOT asking for the Maryland tax to be e-filed for now. When I only e-filed the US 1040, it went through. Apparently Maryland is trying to resolve issue. Will try re e-file for Maryland next week.

Thanks so much for this .... I'm going to wait a few days to see if MD fixes the problem.  If not I will do the same.  Thanks for the tip.

Mine says the Exact same thing. I called the IRS and then MD Comptroller. IRS of course could not give me much info since the issue arises within my state return. I called the comptroller and waited on hold for 15 minutes just for the rep to get on the line and tell me some one would call me back and took down my info. As if life isn't stressful enough at this very moment

hi, I e-filed the Federal tax form and apparently we  have to wait until February 10th to e-file Maryland. when you get to the part about e-file, delete the e-file from Maryland form. When i did this, it took my Federal tax return.  if you can get it; care-cdn.productsupportsite.a.intuit.com   Maryland Individual Forms

I’m having the same issue they say it’s just for Maryland and should be fixed by 2/10 and the live expert told me to just file my federal then come back and try my state taxes after that day.

Same issue with me and same message. Its now January 31st and it still says form will be available soon but I don't even file this form and have no PAL at all what so ever. Anyone get this fixed? Also it won't let you delete the form either.

I did figure some of the problem out.  When you get to the e-file part, delete the check for Maryland e-file and only do the Federal e-file. That worked for me. Apparently Maryland will fix the problem February 10th. Then we can delete the Maryland 8582.

Hi, figured some of it out. When you get to section towards the end where mt to you are asked to e-file the Fed and Maryland forms delete the check for Maryland and only file Fed 1040, Worked for me. I found out Maryland will somehow fix their issue February 10th. I will to e-file Maryland then.

If you are trying to file a Federal and Maryland return, follow the advice of @1947Baltimorecolts above and file only your Federal return at this time.

 

Maryland is not yet ready for Form 8582 (expected 02/10/2022).

The issue is whether TT for MD state taxes works at all at this point.  My return does not include Form 8582 and I have no passive activities.  This should not be an issue at all and I think it's a Turbotax problem rather than a Maryland problem.  But I will see what comes along in any updates before February.  Meanwhile I am hesitant to file Federal until the state program updates since state depends on federal.  I understand that the Federal efile will work but I am concerned it will mess up a later state filing.

I went ahead and did the same. I talked with a Turbo Tax rep yesterday. I had no clue why that form was coming up and he couldn't find out why either. I filed my Fed and waiting for a few days to check on the form.

its been more than a couple of days. How hard can it be to fix such a minor glitch???

Mine and my dads was doing the same thing . We ended up getting it to work by restarting the state taxes like deleting it and starting over and we had to upgrade to the highest method on turbo tax like deluxe or something like that but it ended up working after that but charged us 226 because of the turbo tax upgrade .

I am still getting this error/issue message regarding Maryland.  I suggested filing just the federal and having the program notify me when the Maryland return can be filed.

I had the same problem; I think that when asked to enter an amount in the form for small business I enter 0.

I think that told Turbotax that I sold a business, I should have left the box empty.

When I went to forms and got to form 8582, and at the bottom of the screen I hit Delete. The file was deleted and then I was able to file my return.
