I live in Texas, where there is no state tax and I still cannot file my taxes so there’s definitely something going on with TurboTax

[TK7168]

is a TurboTax issue I went through my forms I live in the state that doesn’t pay state taxes and the form still aren’t ready. TurboTax knew this day was coming and isn’t prepared. I’ve been using them since 2013 and I don’t think this has been an issue in the past so I’m not sure why it’s the issue now but they need to fix it They let you check out and pay and then you can’t file your taxes

I tried to put my taxes through again this morning and STILL keep getting the same error message. I'll try again in a few days. Can we keep each other updated on if the taxes go through or not?

I am receiving the same error code ("Your transmission didn't go through. We could not e-file your return for the following reason: Tax Year 2024 transmissions are not available.") as of this morning (1/27/25). Everything on the state of MN website indicates 1/27/25 (today) as the date they start accepting filings. However, I am also seeing some information indicating that 1/30 is the official date that MN will accept certain forms. I called TurboTax customer care, and they told me to "wait one week and try again." Does anybody else have any insight as to what is going on here? I had zero problems filing my federal taxes, which were already accepted. It's just the state of MN side that is having this issue.

@MattBMPLS The issue is Not that the state of Minnesota is not accepting e-filed tax return,  the issue is that TurboTax has not yet finalized the Minnesota state income tax forms.  As previously posted the estimated date the Minnesota forms will be available for filing is 01/30/2025.

Go to this TurboTax website for federal and state forms availability - https://form-status.app.intuit.com/tax-forms-availability/formsavailability?albRedirect=true&product...

I will definitely update the thread if I’m able to get them completed here for MN! 
From the information available it seems 1/30/25 will be the date? @hope4913

@DoninGA Does that mean that other tax preparing sites would allow us to file now?  

[DoninGA]

@lhansen0416 It is possible that other tax preparation providers may have the state tax forms finalized for filing now.

To OP and everyone else having this same issue - I just e-filed with H+R Block online, start to finish less than 15 minutes. MN forms are all available and $0 to e-file both state and federal. 

[TK7168]

absolutely I just tried again and it’s still not

If this is indeed an issue of Turbo Tax not having the MN forms ready on Turbo Tax's end, then I sure hope they take their own deadline of 1/30 seriously...because they already blew through their own initial deadline of 1/23.

Get it done guys.  I'm traveling outside the country for two weeks starting Saturday morning and I'll be pissed if I can't get this off my plate before I go.  I've been done with my taxes for almost a week now but still the folder sits on my desk waiting to file/print state and file it away in my file cabinet.

[lhansen0416]

@puma1552 When I originally tried to file on 1/20 it told me they would be ready 1/23, then on 1/23 it said the forms would be ready on 1/27. not it's 1/27 and it says they will be ready on 1/30.  I got the idea this was a TurboTax delay rather than an MN delay so I check out H+R Block and was able to complete and e-file my return in less than 15 minutes.  Also, $0 for both state and federal.  Since it's already been delayed by TurboTax 3 separate times I didn't trust the new estimate of 01/30 and went elsewhere, if it's not too much of a hassle for you it may be worth considering that.

It is still not working for me I received the message “

Your transmission didn't go through We could not e-file your return for the following reason: Tax Year 2024 transmissions are not available.”

If I didn’t pay for max services I would have switched to H and R block if it is not updated I will request a refund and go with a better company.
