Can’t Delete Form 8959

When I try to submit my taxes, TurboTax tells me I don’t have a simple return due to the form 8959. I come nowhere near the threshold for this and every time I try to delete it, it says it’s successful but doesn’t actually delete it. How do I fix this and bypass the attempt to charge me for a simple return.

View your tax return - how much income is reported.   You probably have a typo if your return is generating Form 8959.

No typos, triple checked everything, and box 6 is exactly 1.45%. Only made about $30k so I am nowhere near the threshold.

They are working on removing the ''UPGRADE / you need Form 8959'' message.   Check back next week; the IRS will start accepting tax returns then.
