I am one step away from e-filing my 2021 1040 SR return. Turbo Tax states it is unable to transmit due to a Tax Program update that is required. How do I access that?

This appears to be still an issue with Deluxe 2023. On with support for 2 hours and no resolution. Then got hung up on. Called back and on hold again. Very frustrating and disappointed in TurboTax. Do better folks.

This has been resolved.

Try closing TurboTax, clear your Cache and Cookies if you are using TurboTax Online, and reopen TurboTax. You can also try a different browser.

Also, make sure you have ran all updates.

If you are using TurboTax Desktop, check for updates under the Online Tab.
