success?

@srswirsky

Seems to be working fine, returns filed & accepted last week; weird that I got another email from TurboTax Sunday stating they're still trying to fix it?

It is Feb 27. The same error message appears. Tax Year 2023  transmissions are not available. TurboTax is not ready to process Tax Year 2023 for this return.   Repeats this 4X on the screen. when trying again, I get this message repeated 4X :  Duplicate Filing found is same transmission.  Please contact customer support. 

Well, I did. I spoke to 3 different reps from 2/15 to 2/22 and they had no clue other then saying "they're working on it".  Embarrassing.  I got notified on Feb. 8 via email that  the issued was resolved. Seriously,  what happened to TurboTax?  How about hiring competent tech personnel for starters.

Please  check for updates to your TurbTax program.

If you're on a PC, open your TurboTax program and select Check for Updates from the Online menu near the top. 

If you are on a Mac, simply quit and reopen TurboTax. You will be prompted to download any updates.

Some Troubleshooting Tips for Updating:

• Use a wired, high-speed connection when updating. It saves time and will minimize data corruption.
• Try again if your connection drops. It should pick up where it left off.
• If you're having trouble updating on your PC, try ato do a manual update.

I am facing the same issue on Turbotax 2023 on Mac. As of 3/14/2024, Form 7206 issue hasn't been fixed.

@CatinaT1 

Those having success might have used online version. 

Any one had success with e-filing 7206 on desktop version?

[srswirsky]

Make sure to install latest update. I did, and my desktop MAC return was successfully transmitted.

[doubleO7]

@srswirsky :Latest update was installed in the morning of 03/14/2024. The transmission is always successful, however, it gets rejected by IRS after half an hour.

[dontrumpster]

yes. officially processed per irs. waiting for refund.

[dontrumpster]

yes. desktop version.

IRS specifying rejection due to 7206? 

[doubleO7]

@srswirsky :

IRS specifying below:

R0000-058-01 - An XML document that represents a binary attachment must have a valid reference to an attached file.

When I go into TT to fix, it specifies below:

An XML document that represents a binary attachment must have a valid reference to an attached

Data in the return is missing or invalid and cannot be electronically filed at this time. If Form 7206(s) are in the return, review the form(s) for accuracy and errors. If the form(s) is attached in error delete it and resubmit the return for electronic filing. If necessary, make the appropriate change and re-submit this return electronically. However, if the reject continues, file this return via U.S. Mail, print this federal return and mail it to the appropriate IRS Service Center.

[srswirsky]

Sounds pretty clear, bummer for the issue, mine was accepted with 7206 attached so it is possible.

This is still an issue on the PC Desktop Home and Business version... 1 month before taxes are due and still cannot file them.  3 rejections and counting.
