TurboTax Business 2023 transmissions are not available.

[pjhwis]

I'm looking at all of these posts on just being able to e-file a return, which clearly ought to be doable at this point.  What does it mean TurboTax Business is not ready to process Tax Year 2023 for this return?  I have to issue K-1s to beneficiaries, and I'm not doing that until I've filed.  

This is ridiculous.  Anyone down for a class action on misleading advertising?

On March 4, I was finally able to efile the Massachusetts return.

CatinaT1, if you read the many, many posts on this issue you will see that it is broader than a state form, and has been reported as far back as 2/18/24 , both on this forum and to TT Support.

Getting the same error "tax year 2023 transmissions are not available..."  Agree very confusing about the whole form 8453-PE not being supported, but not being the issue after reading the posts. So, is waiting till 3/8 the current recommendation?  Is that coming from TT?  Very very frustrating.  How something that was working (I filed last year with no issues, this form 8453-PE was not required though) is not working anymore?  TT is going backwards

This is also happening on personal taxes. I tried to amend mine the other day and it said the exact same error and they said it would be two weeks before it was fixed, it was an error on their end is all they could say.

I'm waiting until Friday 3/8.  If the 8453-FE problem  is not fixed I will ask for (insist)  on a refund.  TaxAct has a  program that will process Form 1041.

So not helpful

I have a similar problem. I printed and signed Form 8453-FE, then scanned and uploaded. However, when I check the documents, the signed form is not there. It is a form without my signature. Tried multiple times.

Catina T1,  

Since you  are an expert, is TurboTax keeping you informed on whether or not Form 8453-FE will be available  for Business 2023?

8453-FE is the form that is preventing e-filing, not a state form.

Updated software on 3/7/204.  Only able to Transmit Federal successfully.  Fails to transmit State Form to WI.

No error. No way to report the problem.  No resolution.

Applied the Friday morning 3/8/2024 update @5:45a CST which included a Wisconsin Fiduciary update.  Repeated the Step by Step process and attempted to transmit.  Still failed to transmit!

Federal successfully transmitted on 3/7/2024.

Still unable to transmit / submit the WI State form for Turbo Tax Business 2023 for Trusts (Form 2).

What's the efile status of the Federal return you submitted yesterday?  Has it been accepted yet? You can't efile a state return by itself unless/until the Federal return has an accepted status.

Also, have you restarted/rebooted your computer since installing the update?

[Trust25]

Yes - Federal was Accepted yesterday on 3/7/204.

Yes - I rebooted the computer, followed step by step, ran the review.  No errors found.  Hit Transmit Now and it fails and provides the same error message.  

Tax Year 2023 Transmissions are not available.  Turbo Tax business is not ready to process tax year 2023 for this return.
