Our records indicate that you are not entitled to efile one or more formsets. I’m not sure what this means?

I deleted my state form as suggested and not am asked to pay again. How do i avoid paying twice? 

[GabiU]

@juggernaut Can you provide a screenshot of when you try to delete state? Does it give an error that you cannot delete state because you paid? 

Thank you! 

[christy112]

I was able to delete state but now I'm being asked to pay again. I've already paid to file. I spoke with someone from customer support and was promised I'd receive some sort of voucher code to use to bypassing paying again. The voucher code never came.

I was able to delete my State return and now I'm ready to file again. But I'm being asked to pay again to file. I already paid to file when the issue came up. How can I try to file again without paying again?

An agent can assist you with this.  This FAQ will provide you with the steps to contact an agent

So with an agent’s help we were able figure it out. I thought I was being asked to pay the $40 again for the Turbo Tax Online Deluxe. But, upon closer inspection, I was being asked to pay to file state taxes. So what worked for me was deleting my state return, redoing my state return, paying to file the state, then transmitting (e-filing) both federal and state.

I just got off the phone with support and this worked for me as well. The initial payment of $40 was only for federal, after paying the additional fee for state i was able to file.

Gabi - there is no delete button for me, only edit. I have tried going into tools and delete the forms but it won't let me delete the CA540 form.

I am experiencing this error and when I select review it says I have nothing that needs review. This doesn't seem to be related to filing to early, is there something else causing a transmission error?
