What does Reject Code SA-F1040-002 mean?

I donated to goodwill a bunch. Never more than like 500$ each and I itemized my taxes with the amounts never over 500$. I’ve always submitted this way. What is going on

This is now fixed but you will need to follow these steps to generate the form and/or fix your rejection:

 

  1. Sign in to your TurboTax Online account and select Fix my return.
  2. Select Federal from the left menu, then Deductions & Credits.
  3. Scroll down to Charitable Donations and select Revisit next to Donations to Charity in 2025.
  4. You must review each non-cash donation entry. For any donation or group of similar items over $500, ensure you have provided:
  5. The organization's name and address.
  6. A description of the property.
  7. The date you acquired it and how (e.g., purchase, gift).
  8. Your cost or basis and the Fair Market Value (FMV).
  9. Once you provide these details, TurboTax will automatically generate Form 8283.

 

If the form still does not appear in your Tax Summary:

  1. Go to Tax Tools > Tools > Delete a form.
  2. Check if there is a "ghost" Form 8283 or Charitable Contribution Worksheet that is blank. Delete it.
  3. Go back to the Donations section and re-enter the details for the specific high-value items. This forces the software to re-trigger the form creation.
  4. Once corrected, proceed to the File section to resubmit your federal return.
