Getting an error when i try to file:
"Check this entry
Schedule E Worksheet: Yes, 1099s were filed should be blank if 1099s were not required."
I made sure that under rental property info the "Required to send a 1099 section" is checked No. I was able to ensure that the if "yes, did you or will you file all required form(s) 1099?" It is blank but the error continues and i cant file.
Technical is working on it. IRS does not open until February 12.

Same issue here. No reply needed, just piling on :-).
It's past Feb. 12.
Has anyone seen a resolution for this yet???
Any update on this TurboTax bug? Tax season is here, please treat it with high priority!
This is normally caused by a browser issue.
Use the Chrome browser
Click the three dots in the upper right corner
Select Settings
Privacy and Security
Clear browser data for all time
Then sign in to TurboTax on the Chrome browser
Go to Tax Tools, Tools, Delete a Form and delete your Schedule E
Go to the program and enter the No again for issuing 1099's.
Go through the pages in the income section until it ends and then run Review again.
The error should be gone.
I'm getting the same error. On mine No was selected in both boxes, however it still won't let me file. Ridiculous! The suggested workaround of clearing the browser and deleting schedule E did not work, even though I tell it to delete Schedule E it's always still there.

While assisting my client in Turbo Tax we noticed this kept popping up. It is because he selected originally Did you pay anyone for this rental property where form 1099 or W2s need to be filed. He put yes because he did pay people but not a lot just for cleaning and some yard work to where he did not need to upload or create these forms. We deleted the form Schedule E and the worksheet, and went back in to the questions and selected No to this question and it fixed the error
I don't know if this was me or not, but this is exactly what happened with me. Write down the info on Schedule E, delete it and redo it, making sure to answer that one question correctly and you'll be fine. E-Filed without a hitch after that.
This was definitely NOT the fix for me. Just annoying to have all of my browser stuff deleted. See below where someone discusses deleting Schedule E. A little bit of work, but it works like a charm!
I’m using the online version which is even more frustrating because you can’t simply delete the form. Eventually after an hour in the phone with tech support the rep gave up and told me to delete the entire property and start over, which did fix the error.
Yes, you can't delete merely that item or sheet. When you delete Schedule E it will take all of the associated sheets with it.
I've been stuck on this for weeks as well. The "fix" then is to go back in and delete the entire Schedule E worksheet? And then I'd have to go back and enter all that info again, right?
I was able to fix this bug by going into the rental property details where the question was asked, changed my answer from NO to YES, clicked next, then went back and changed my answer to NO.
That fixed worked! michaelpmcrae ! The simplest way to fix this error. It worked for me anyway.
Please follow the below steps that I found in another post
Go back to adjust this at the original entry. To get back there in TurboTax, follow these steps:
I am using the software version (home and business) and am having the same issue. I was ready to file 2 months ago but I encountered this issue and I thought I am missing a form so I filed for an extension and I just realized it's a bug. This is very frustrating. Please help.
First run an OS system update and reboot at least twice and then open the program and run a program update and see if that corrected things.
It worked and saved my time! Thank you so much michaelpmcrae! Looks a bug in TurboTax software.
Try this:
Has this bug returned. I am facing the same issue in 4/7/2024. Has anyone else noticed that it does not allow you to move forward. Neither does it let you uncheck that radio button.
Please clarify which version of TurboTax you are using: Online or Desktop? Windows or Mac? If Online, which browser? Also, please provide the full text of the error message you are seeing.
