This is currently being investigated by TurboTax, but in the meantime:

TurboTax has released a FAQ on this issue - the workaround answer is to print and mail the return.

The information is useful. The fact that I can't e-file because of that 1 small mistake is a shame.

Don't blame me - I am just the messenger.

Until TurboTax fixes this bug (time frame unknown) the only way to file is to print and mail.
