Taxes wont transmit elecrtonically

Hello, I am trying to submit my business taxes.  They wont submit, and I get a message to download the newest turbotax update.  I update it, I get a message that says it is fully updated.  Then I try to resubmit and the same thing happens!

When you try to submit your return, can you tell us the exact error message you're receiving?

It says

 

There is an update available for your version of TurboTax. Before you can file electronically, you’ll need to get this update. To do this, go to the Online menu and select Check for Updates.

 

I follow the directions and try to resubmit, but the same message pops up each time. 

Thank you!

Thank you for your reply.  

I am using ‘TurboTax Business’, so this manual update link isn’t applicable to my program.

Thank you for your help Tiffany.  That link contained the update for 2019, but unfortunately no update for 2020.  I still couldn’t get the return to successfully be transmitted.

That update won’t work, it isn’t specifically for TurboTax Business.  Thank you for your help though.

The links posted aren’t for TT Business 2020. Does anyone have that link?

Thank you, that was the correct update.  Unfortunately I still get the same message when I try to submit my state tax.  It says I need to update, then when I try to update it says I’m already updated.
