I have the desktop version of TurboTax and when trying to e-file my return it states that I can't e-file because I have a W2c. Why can't I e-file when I think the below post from the IRS states that I can? Unless I'm understanding it wrong.
You must e-file Forms W-2c to correct originally filed Forms W-2, W-2AS, W-2GU, and W-2VI (collectively Form W-2), but not Form W-2CM, depending on how the original Forms W-2 were correctly filed. If you were required to e-file the original Form W-2, you must e-file any Form W-2c correcting that form. If the original Form W-2 was permitted to be filed on paper and you filed on paper, then you must file on paper any Form W-2c correcting that form.
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
You don't actually file a Form W-2c in TurboTax. You use the information on it to modify the original W-2 that's being corrected.
Assuming that you've already entered your original Form W-2 and you haven't yet filed, go back and edit the W-2 with the information from your W-2c.
See the TurboTax Help article I got a W-2c from my employer. How do I handle this? for guidance.
After you've entered the updated information, you'll see the Let's check for uncommon situations screen. Select the box next to W-2 was corrected by my employer (Form W-2c), then select Continue.

I followed these exact steps and my return was rejected. Turbo Tax please help. I need to be able to e-file my W2c along with this to get my return.
