Form 7206 cannot be efiled!

[cowdogman]

From my POV Form 7206 is still not fixed.  I can now e-file (tho I haven't), but Lines 1 and 14 of Form 7206 still have incorrect amounts (and a weird and incorrect footnote at the bottom of the form).

Given that Form 7206, Line 14 is supposed to match Schedule 1, Line 17 (which has the correct (higher) amount), I don't want to get a CP2000 from the IRS saying that I claimed a higher adjustment in Schedule 1 than I was entitled to under Form 7206.

I've posted about this twice, but have never had a response from TT--and my posts have been moved to this lengthy  thread--effectively burying them.

It's been 2 weeks now....and STILL no fix from TT??  C'mon, we deserve better than this.

There was an update a week ago today that fixed this problem.  Be sure you have downloaded it.  If you are still not able to Efile, you need to call them.

I'm not sure why you are still having an issue.  It was fixed last week and the majority of us have successfully filed.  I cannot confirm because I threw in the towel one day too soon and fought it out with TT to get a free online version and filed that way.  The next day it was fixed.  If you are still having issues, try that route.  Make them give you a "service code" and when you enter that code when filing your return you need to see a zero balance.  Don't provide a credit card.  I made that mistake, my code didn't work and had to call TT a number of times but was eventually refunded the $89 I paid.  I know it's twice the work, but I ran my desktop version simultaneously with the online version and copied it on the the online return.  And once you have filed, you can save the file to your desktop, open it in TT and you'll have a local version for next years taxes.  I hope this helps.

Thanks. They emailed me on Monday to say they were still working on the fix and that they would email me when it was ready. So I never tried updating my program.  Just did....and was able to e-file. Hooray!

[Dmcgan]

Yeah, the people sending out the emails didn't know that the people doing the fix had fixed the problem.  Makes me wonder if they know what they're doing.  I still haven't been told it was fixed with an email, but I've efiled and gotten acknowledgement that both my Fed and State have been accepted.  TT has a lot of "splainin" to do.

I efiled on February 14, and my form 7206 looks fine. But I'm still getting notices from Turbotax that they're working on a fix!

I am unable to email my completed files due to the final check identifying field 27b on my Schedule C as being an error. There is a "0" in the field that I cannot delete and it says I need to submit Form 7206 even though I have no basis for having any entry in that field at all and don't need a Form 7206 which TurboTax does not currently support right now anyway. I just need to eliminate that "0" entry. I don't know how it even got there.

I have submitted a diagnostic copy token # 1193249

@adhcalypso On Schedule C Line 27b is used for entry for a energy efficient commercial building deduction from Form 7205

Is there a Form 7205 in your Forms list, if so delete the form if it is not relevant.

[adhcalypso]

I do not have a form 7205 and it should not be relevant. I do have a Form 7206 but don't know why since I don't have any self-employed health insurance either.

[DoninGA]

@adhcalypso Have you tried deleting the Form 7206?

[adhcalypso]

Just did that, but the other error still exists and is still keeping me from e-filing.

[Richard Cooley]

It is suppose to be available whether you need it or not.

[Richard Cooley]

If they delete form 7206 I wont get ana more of thease interesting E Mails>

I appreciate all the guesses and clever comments but I thought the purpose of me submitting the protected, tokenized version of my returns was for someone who actually worked for TurboTax to review that copy and to provide me with a real solution. No offense, but should I have submitted that copy somewhere else?
