Why does my TT Hawaii return keep telling me "Returns with Investment Interest from Form N-158 can not be filed electronically." I did NOT claim this interest.

Hi maglib... I logged off and tried again, but the same thing happens.  Accordingly, from my perspective, as of today, March 31, 2019, this issue has NOT been resolved in the update that was released on 03/30/2018.

so you are in fact in the online version and not a desktop copy (desktop has to be updated)? I will notify moderators and give them this link. Hopefully they can come up with the answer.  I am so sorry you are having this difficulty.

Indeed... I use the online version

I let the moderators know, hopefully someone will respond by tomorrow.  In the meantime did you try to delete the form? Possibly the update happened but the form was created and just needs to be removed?  I'm hoping it works.
You can delete the form by following these steps:

1. Sign into your account and select your current return

2. Select Tax Tools on the bottom left and then Tools

3. Select Delete a Form

4. Find that Form and any related possibly and select delete next to it

One cannot access ANY of the state forms in TT.  Interestingly, I do, in fact, claim Investment Interest on the Federal return, but not on the state return, but I cannot access the state return

@JCIII Watch for an email from us with further instructions.

Any idea when this issue will be corrected?  I e-filed my Federal returns, but need this problem to be resolved before e-filing my Hawaii returns.

Wrapping up my 2019 return, and I have the same issue as last year: returns with investment interest from form n158 can not be filed electronically.

Still no fix?

Hawaii Form N-158 is not eligible for efiling. You can print your Hawaii return and file it by mail.

Hawaii Form N-158

This issue is still preventing hawaii state efile, I have no interest expenses when filing n153. I do have interest earned from a money market savings account which have included in my federal but I don't think I include that in n153 so I'm not sure why it's still asking me to file n153. 

Hoping someone can help me with this same problem regarding the N-158. I am not claiming any investment interest expense and did not fill out an N-158 nor is it listed in my forms. In the section referring to investment interest expense, it is listed as 0. Please help. This is for tax year 2021.

@bighairy You should completely delete the amount and remove the 0 and see if that helps. I'm sorry as i don't do Hawaii taxes I would also suggest deleting the form n-158 if that was the only thing on that form. Another suggestion that has seemed to work is file your federal taxes, wait for them to be accepted. Once they are, then try to file your state. I don't work for TT. Hope this does help you out.

Were you able to get this fixed? I am having the same problem and TT did not inform me about this until I had to check since I have not received my state returns.

@adiego5, unfortunately... no; I was not able to resolve the matter regarding the Form N-158.  

Accordingly, I have mailed in my Hawaii returns every year. 

Who Must File
If you are an individual, estate, or a trust, you
must file Form N-158 to claim a deduction for
your investment interest expense.
Exception. You do not have to file Form N-158 if
all of the following apply.
• Your investment income from interest
and ordinary dividends is more than your
investment interest expense.
• You do not have any other deductible
investment expenses.
• You do not have any carryover of disallowed
investment interest expense from 2020.
