Is rejection code S1-f1040-080-03 a TurboTax glitch and when will it be resolved so I can resubmit my returns?

@chetjunior , on-line search suggests that this is a TurboTax issue and is "supposed" to be fixed by 02/06.  Suggestions are to refile after that date and see what happens.

It does not look like an IRS rejection code.

I have this issue as well.  I spent some time on the phone yesterday with support which was a waste of time.  The support rep sent me an email which included some info she found in her system.  Makes no sense. "S1-F1040-080-03: This return cannot be filed at this time due to a processing error that will be corrected on January 31st, 2026. On or after this date, open the rejected return, review it for errors, and resubmit the return for electronic filing."

I told her that TT normally updates on Thursday which is 2/5 and she was not even aware of this fact.  I have no idea what 1/31 is about.

I revisited my return and resent it to the IRS on 1/31/26 at 9:30am, as suggested by TT.  Unlike the first try, it wasn't immediately rejected with the S1-F1040-080-03 error code. As of 5:07pm on 2/1/26, it's been in "PENDING" status. I guess things shut down on the weekend... Hopefully it will be accepted tomorrow. chetjunior

So, TT suggested you resubmit on 1/31?  Was that someone is support?

[chetjunior]

Actually, the 1/31/26 date was shown when I logged into TT Online after it was initially bounced back with error code S1-F1040-080-03 on 1/28/26. The message said I should review the return and resubmit it on 1/31/26 or later.

This morning, after two days of being in pending status, my returns were again rejected with the S1-F1040-080-03 error code. But this time TurboTax informed me the cause of this error had been fixed.  So I logged in, reviewed the income section, and resubmitted the returns. Voila! The IRS accepted the federal return within about a half hour! My state return was just accepted  as well. Yippee! Although this five day fiasco's occurrence was a head scratcher for me, I do appreciate TurboTax's resolution of its cause.

Ditto!  I updated TT yesterday and resubmitted my return today which was  quickly accepted.

Same issue here with the same rejection code

[Lizdor]

Did you make any changes to your return or you just resubmitted and e-file?

[Fishwish]

I made no changes to mine.  I just resubmitted what I had files that got rejected.

First, I reviewed the INCOME section of the federal return without changing anything. Then I resubmitted federal and state returns and both returns quickly sailed through with no problem.
