2022 Turbotax Form 8915F-T - Cannot e-file

So I have been checking a couple of times a week to see when Form 8915F-T will be available in the 2022 desktop version.  The software has consistently been saying that this form will be available to file by mail and e-file on 02/16/2023.  All good.

 

Today the software says available to file by mail on 02/16/2023, but now says "Cannot e-file."  This form and it's variants were able to be e-filed in TY 2021 and TY 2020.

 

Does anyone know more about this?  Will we be unable to e-file for TY 2022 if we need to use this form?

    Very frustrating!  I just spent an hour on the phone with Turbo Tax and no resolution.  It appears that Turbo Tax is incorrectly filling out form 8915-F by inputting "COVID-19" in line C-1 when in fact it should be left blank if the distribution was COVID related.

     

    TurboTax has offered no resolution, escalation, or next steps - other than "print and mail in the return and the IRS will fix the mistake".  Really?

    You can't manually edit the form to remove that entry?

    @msromike no you cannot - at least on the online version; not sure about the desktop version
