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?

Having the same issue. I was told they are "working to fix the issue." It is printed clear as day, the FEMA line should be left blank for the COVID distribution. After all the delays with this form, again, you would think they would have caught that issue.

I’m done with this company !!

spend over an hour trying to fox this issue and they have no answers!
