Why isn’t it letting me e-file my taxes?

I'm  getting this message that my charitable contribution amount on the Worksheet is not correct.  I tried changing it and verifying that I am using the proper amount, but the software will not accept it.  Very frustrating!  I followed remedial instructions, but I continue to get the same error message.  I don't  understand why this should hold  up filing, since the Worksheet is not filed with the return.

If you’re receiving the error check message, enter the amount of donations you made up to the maximum limit per your filing status.

For Married Filing Jointly, the maximum amount to claim is $600. For Single filers, the maximum amount to claim is $300.

I go through all the pages to submit my tax info using turbotax.  It lets me complete everything, but when trying to submit...it gives me a pop-up saying "Tax year 2021 transmissions are not available."  What am I supposed to do do next?

There may be forms that are required for your tax returns that aren't available yet, particularly your state return. If that is the case, the program will not let you e-file. You can check the status of form availability in the below TurboTax help articles. If the forms become available sooner than the currently published date, the article will be updated to reflect the new availability date.

• IRS forms availability table for TurboTax individual (personal) tax products
• State forms availability table for TurboTax individual (personal) tax products

If you find that your state forms are the forms not available, you can choose to file your federal return and come back to file the state once the forms are ready. Please see Can I file my federal taxes now and skip my state for later?
