I still got Failed_Validation error as of April 15, 2025 when Efile

I still got the error when I tried to eFile last night, and there is also some text like "State filed is not found in Federal return etc."

 "FAILED_VALIDATION. There is an update available for your version of TurboTax.  Before you can file electronically, you'll need to get this update.  To do this, go to the Online menu and select Check for Updates." 

 

thank you for every help

If you are using TurboTax Desktop

The software is updated many times, I also have rebooted my laptop many times.  I don't have firewall nor antivirus running on my computer.  I will try again later and hopefully I can call in support line for real time support.  Thanks.
