Are you in the FILE section and signing the return, and it asks for "today's date?"  

What time zone are you in?

 

Have you checked your computer's clock and date settings to be sure they are accurate?

We are in mountain time zone, nothing wrong with the computer. It says to input 10/16/2019, but since it isn't yet that date, won't let us do that either.

I have no way of looking at it.  Why does it say input "October 16?"   It's still October 15 in mountain time zone.

Today's date:
Please enter today's date again and/or use the right date format

This is what we have.

If it won't accept 10/15 as the date, and won't take the 10/16, I don't know anything else to tell you other than to go into your settings and check the computer's date and time, and also the specific time zone that is listed in your system settings.  Be sure the time zone itself says "mountain time."

 

Unfortunately TurboTax Support closed at 9 PM Pacific.

Actually they are open another 4 minutes, if you are lucky, or maybe they'll stay a little later:
