AI is a great tool but you need a human to look at this problem.

    Try these options to fix the issue you are having

    If you are using TurboTax Online

    • Check ‌your browser's settings. (Clear your Cache and Cookies)
    • Check on your internet connection
    • Try using a different web browser 

    If you are using TurboTax Desktop

    • Make sure the software is updated. 
    • If you haven't rebooted your computer, please do
    • Check your firewall and antivirus settings. Make sure they aren't blocking any feature of the software. 

    ** If you are using the phone/tablet app, try changing to laptop/computer if possible. If you do not have access to a computer, switch to a web browser within your phone or tablet, and sign in from there.

    **You might also want to uninstall and reinstall your desktop product (this has worked for some users). Make sure that you save the file and do a back up of your information (you do not want to lose any information). See the links below

    I love how you are trying to make an AI look human

    First, if you had read what I wrote I am using a desktop PC as I stated, to learn to read (do you as a company not realize that this type of reply is a slap in the face to the customer?).

    I guess that you never told the AI that the software on the PC updates every time you load it.

    the computer is fully updated rebooted and works fine.

    I already tried customer support and they said they could not help.

    get a human to work on this and quit with the copy-paste reply

    At what point are you getting the error? You say when you try to file - so after you press the transmit now button?

     

    The Desktop Software does not always automatically update. If you have ran all updates, you may need to do a manual update. 

     

    What is a manual update?

    Same problem here. It occurs directly after hitting the "Pay with credit card" button on the "How would  you like to pay" screen. This is in regards to paying for the state e-file (which shouldn't even be a separate charge in my opinion). Tried rebooting, I don't have any firewall going. Using Mac OS 15.3.2. Extremely frustrating.

    I get this error when trying to E-File my MA state return, paying with credit card.    My Federal return was E-Filed and accepted.    I'm using Turbotax Premier.   My software is up to date.   Agree with other users that say this is a totally useless error with no hint of what is really the problem.  May as well just say "Error number 123456".   

     

    Last week I got this same error when while doing a Trust tax return that needed me to purchase the CT fiduciary state tax return.   It was not resolvable and took over 2.5 hours on the phone to purchase that add-in over the phone so it could be downloaded from my Intuit account and manually installed to Turbotax Business.   I don' t want to go through that hastle again!

     

    Off to the post office.
