I tried all suggestions except for "Send Tax File to Agent", and the problem hasn't been fixed. My files are so simple. I did e-file last year but don't know why it rejects this year! Please help.

Thanks

The formset error is a TurboTax issue that is being worked on.  There is a possible workaround to remove this error.  Delete the state tax return and then complete the state return again.  Many users have found this to be effective in removing this error.   

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for deleting a state tax return - How to delete the state return      @NgocHo

This message is the result of an IRS form that has not yet been approved by IRS for e-filing.

 

Check your message for the name of the form(s) not yet available for e-file.

 

Once IRS releases their forms to the website and to the tax companies, then the tax companies have to get approval from IRS before they can be used.

 

You can check it regularly to see if it has been approved and if you are ready to update your software and finish  up the return again for e-filing.

 

Then refer to this information for guidance based on your type of TurboTax software:

 

Select your situation below to locate your 2020 form or schedule.

Keep in mind:

  • When you locate your form, there will be dates for both Print and (in most cases) E-file availability. If the E-file form is listed as unsupported, the form must be printed and you'll need to mail your return.
  • Forms missing from the table aren't supported in TurboTax.

Hi,

That is an error of Turbo Tax and they are fixing it. I called the service team, took about 45minutes holding the line and finally, Nathaniel picked up the phone and helped me to solve that error. Pls try to call Turbo Tax for your assistant.

Hi,

I found out the 1st pmt gone thru just Federal one, after deleted the State form, I went over again, deleted some forms linked to this year tax from last year but not applicable to this year tax, then error was fixed. I got a support from Tủrbo Tax service call in.

Called the help line 48 hours ago. Said their system would take 24-48 hours to update whatever forms needed updating and recommended I try to e-file again in 48 hours. Still wouldn't let me e-file.

 

Really disappointed that I'm not getting what I already paid for.
