Try this workaround from @Critter (Max benefits for overseas filers) :
This is caused when the MAX bundle is in the order and there are issues with the information entered in the Personal Info section. This can happen in the following situations:
This can be resolved by temporarily changing your information under Personal Info, then changing it back before filing your return. If you have a foreign address, enter the U.S. billing address for the card you're trying to use. If you have only one letter as your first name, change this to your full first name, as shown on your social security card.
If you've followed the above steps and you continue to get the error message, it can be resolved by removing the MAX Benefits from your order, which will allow you to file.
Note: If you choose to remove the MAX bundle and file, you will not be able to order it later.
Please clarify - are you being asked for a US address when trying to pay for MAX benefits with a credit card?
By my receipt it shows I have paid for it already but there is some “state and zip” check that is happening when I’m going to file my federal return. It puts me into a loop of constantly going back through the return.
How did you pay for it?
US credit card
Did you enter the US state and zip associated with that credit card?
Yes
