EFile rejected with code R0000-058-01. This appears to be a problem with form 7206. Any timeline for when this will be fixed in the desktop version ?

Facing the same issue.

Had sent the token three days back. No response.

IRS specifying below:

R0000-058-01 - An XML document that represents a binary attachment must have a valid reference to an attached file.

When I go into TT to fix, it specifies below:

An XML document that represents a binary attachment must have a valid reference to an attached

Data in the return is missing or invalid and cannot be electronically filed at this time. If Form 7206(s) are in the return, review the form(s) for accuracy and errors. If the form(s) is attached in error delete it and resubmit the return for electronic filing. If necessary, make the appropriate change and re-submit this return electronically. However, if the reject continues, file this return via U.S. Mail, print this federal return and mail it to the appropriate IRS Service Center.

Same problem on desktop version. Looks like the pdf forms transmitted by TurboTax does not meet the format specs. I tried to delete Form 7206 but it just regenerates again and there does not appear to be anyway to delete it.  Looks like we have to wait for TurbiTax to fix the problem or mail the return in.

As of 03/18/2024, IRS still rejecting.

The development team has been made aware of the e-filing rejection code that seems related to Form 7206.  They are working to resolve this and request that you use the link in the following TurboTax help article to register your email address for notifications.  The expectation is that this will be resolved in the March 29th program update.

Why is TurboTax adding an incomplete Form 7206 when I'm not required to file it?

Received software update for TT 2003 Home and Business for Mac.

E-filed after the update. Got rejected by IRS.

Issue related to 7206 e-filing from Mac still persists as of 3/21/2024.

The development team has given us an update with regard to customers who are receiving the Reject Code R0000-058-01 when trying to electronically file your return.  The resolution to this situation is taking longer than expected and it may not be resolved before the tax filing deadline. 

For reference, this information is from the IRS Instructions for Form 7206: 

Generally, you can use the worksheet in the Form 1040 instructions to figure your deduction. However, if any of the following apply, you must use Form 7206.

• You had more than one source of income subject to self-employment tax.
• You file Form 2555.
• You are using amounts paid for qualified long-term care insurance to figure the deduction.

In order to proceed and get your return filed in a timely manner, please follow this advice:

1 - If you are required to include Form 7206 as a part of your tax return based on the information above, then you need to print and mail your return.  Electronic filing will not be an option if the reject code persists. 

2 - If you are not required to include Form 7206 as part of your tax return, then you can attempt to delete the Form 7206 and try electronically filing your return once again.  If the form cannot be deleted or you still get the reject code, then you need to print and mail your return. 

Use the steps in the following TurboTax help articles to delete Form 7206:

How do I view and delete forms in TurboTax Online?

How do I delete a tax form in TurboTax Desktop (Windows or Mac)?

That's a bummer!

@AnnetteB6 :Thanks for the update

[doubleO7]

@AnnetteB6 : Can TT team help us with importing our tax file to online version and a code to e-file online? It seems there hasn't been any issues with 7206 when e-filed online.

In addition to the situations listed by AnnetteB6 Turbo Tax forces the creation of Form 7206 if you enter a Health Insurance subsidy (which resides in Form 1095-A).  Even if you are not eligible for any credit under Form 7206 calculations, you still cannot delete Form 7206 as it gets instantly regenerated after deletion due to the presence of Form 1095-A with valid data in it. Deleting 1095-A might resolve this but would probably be flagged by the IRS because it is mandatory to file this form if you received a subsidy. So the problem of rejection by the IRS because of Form 7206 cannot be solved by deleting it in this situation, so the filing will be rejected.

This is so disappointing.  Nothing hss chsnged in the 3:28 release as promised.  Your reply layed out the 3 scenarios where a 7206 is required.  You could have at least added those 3 items as questions and if none were applicable then had a checkbox where form would not be submitted.  Makes me wonder how many other problems are there that we just don’t know about.

Disappointing and not the level of support one would expect from a mature product like Turbotax.  Will be expecting a refund on my State e-file charge.

[RickSke]

This is really awful and beyond disappointing!

So why were so many of us able to file electronically after the February 15th update?  My return has a 7206 because of long-term care insurance.  Before Feb. 15 it rejected twice.  After that update it sailed through and was accepted on the 16th.  No more problems on the subject until a later date when no one could get them accepted.  Clearly, you fixed it and then a later update messed it up again.

This problem is clearly on TurboTax and has nothing to do with IRS.

Form 8915-F does show as being available on the Form Availability List. However there are some software updates being implemented that have resulted in a delay. There will be two separate updates to the form. The first is anticipated on the 22nd and the second is anticipated on the 29th. After those dates, update your software if you are in the desktop version of the software, and try to proceed with your return.
