I got the reject code SA-F1040-002, which now I know is, because Turbo Tax did not automatically create the form 8283 to go along with my charitable donations. Help :)

[user17698664697]

The error code stated to wait until January 31st and resubmit. I tried to do that and I see the form 8283 is still not attached to my return. I have the details of my donations and it looks like the form is just not being created. Please help!

I’m getting the same thing. So disappointed in TurboTax this year.

Same here. TT has an issue with forms EVERY year. I'm about to file with H&R Block.

Same with me - do we jusst keep resubmitting until it works??? This is ridiculous..... Still not working after they said the 31st ....

I just tried and when you get to the step right before you submit you can view the forms. I scrolled down and ensured the 8283 was there and this time it was. When I tried even on 1/31 it was not there.  Check to see your form is being generated.

I'm literally fighting with this same issue now.

Me too

Same error. Turbotax is becoming untrustworthy.

This is now fixed but you will need to follow these steps to generate the form and fix your rejection:

1. Sign in to your TurboTax Online account and select Fix my return.
2. Select Federal from the left menu, then Deductions & Credits.
3. Scroll down to Charitable Donations and select Revisit next to Donations to Charity in 2025.
4. You must review each non-cash donation entry. For any donation or group of similar items over $500, ensure you have provided:
5. The organization's name and address.
6. A description of the property.
7. The date you acquired it and how (e.g., purchase, gift).
8. Your cost or basis and the Fair Market Value (FMV).
9. Once you provide these details, TurboTax will automatically generate Form 8283.

If the form still does not appear in your Tax Summary:

1. Go to Tax Tools > Tools > Delete a form.
2. Check if there is a "ghost" Form 8283 or Charitable Contribution Worksheet that is blank. Delete it.
3. Go back to the Donations section and re-enter the details for the specific high-value items. This forces the software to re-trigger the form creation.
4. Once corrected, proceed to the File section to resubmit your federal return.

My return was rejected 6 times, and the form 8283 is listed 6 times but I cannot delete it.

I corrected the donations in January so none are over $500.00, but the return was rejected 6 times (in total) and I cannot delete the Forms in the Tools Section

[CatinaT1]

What about the charitable contributions worksheets? Can you delete them?

[arcaromi]

This worked for me, no 8283 when I looked at forms but there were 2 hidden 8283 following these instructions

I deleted both and then went back through my return and it created an 8283, should go through this time

thanks

[evercooks]

I cannot delete the worksheet nor the 8283 form. also paid for and cannot reach a live human for help.  I've been disconnected 4 times, while waiting for help.  Started calls @ 9:00 PST and it 1:50 I'm still listening to music on hold over 45 minutes

How do I know it's included now?  The View Reports button before submission does not work. I tried on a PC and a Mac  and I get an error.  I don't want to resubmit and get rejected again.  I was also tole, I could try the desktop version but it asks for a license and does not have the option listed in TurboTax help that says, click on continue from online.  This has been very frustrating and my last year using TurboTax.  Even the agents who respond in the chat or call, know nothing, not the problem or a solution.
