Why does TurboTax GA State S Corp software require a Form IT-FC Film Tax Credit Certificate to file my taxes electronically? Not a film company. Not an issue last year

Second year of filing Georgia S Corp taxes. I am in a loop as it continues to ask for Form IT-FC Certificate Number and Film Corp tax credit info. I tried zeroing everything since I'm not a film company but it takes me back to review without filing over and over.  I'm stuck in a loop and cannot e-file. I don't even need this form!

Unfortunately, I was never able to reach a human being. Even with a case number, the system would not verify me.  I found the answer to this question in another similar thread on GA Partnership filings.

 

Go to Forms in the upper right. Click on the Form IT-FC. At the bottom of the Form page, it gives you the option to Delete Form. That's what I did. Worked like a charm.

 

Why do software engineers always have to try to 'fix' something that isn't broken. I had ZERO issues last year and could not have been happier. This year, I can't even get a human being to talk to...

Excellent help; I was stuck with the same problem.  Thanks for suggesting to delete the form.

The worst thing about this is that it's still the solution 1 year later. Just finished my Sub S and, once again, it requires this form as if all companies that do business in GA are in the Film Industry...  Larry S.

Thank you so much.  I was on a call with a live person for three hours and she never got to this answer.  Your solution worked like a charm.  Thanks for your help.

Ran into the same problem in prior years and can't believe this has not been resolved yet (i.e., TT is still inserting a form IT-FC in a basic corporate return). Used the "delete form" recommended previously. 

Now, when I go to "Print state tax return for filing" - it says I can't. It says I must file electronically. Well, if I had film credits, that might be true (there are a couple of other situations that might require electronic filing with GA, but none are applicable here).

I will save to PDF, print, and mail the return.

Argh!

Thanks for your help. It worked like a charm going to the IT-FC form and deleting it. I tried for an hour or so to get the forms submitted electronically. Once deleted all the forms were able to be submitted electronically.

Turbo Tax is a buggy program. THANK YOU so much for deciphering the program. Your turbotax program should be free!
