TT Business Not Ready To Process Your 2023 Returns

There are many reasons why an income tax return can not be e-filed.  I don't know if any of these apply to your return.

Returns can't be e-filed if they:

• Have overrides
• Have no taxable income
• Contain a W-2 where box 1 is blank or if the box 16 amount is greater than the box 1 amount
• Contain IRS forms or schedules not on the accepted Forms and Schedules list
• Contain forms that are not final
• Are prior-year or amended returns

Many nonresident and part-year state returns cannot be e-filed either.

You can mail in your WI income tax return.  Click here for mailing instructions for your particular return.

Where do I mail my Income and Fiduciary Tax Returns?
 

If you are filing Wisconsin Form 1, send your return to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue at:

If refund or no tax due

PO Box 59
Madison, WI 53785-0001

If tax is due

PO Box 268
Madison, WI 53790-0001

If homestead credit claimed

PO Box 34
Madison, WI 53786-0001

The rule requiring e-filing WI returns generally applies to people that prepare tax returns: "The administrative rule requiring the electronic filing of individual income tax returns applies to any person or entity engaged in the business of individual income tax return preparation, regardless of its legal form. This includes sole proprietors, partnerships, limited liability companies, and corporations that prepare 50 or more Wisconsin individual income tax returns."

The error message I'm getting "TT Business Not Ready To Process Your 2023 Returns"  doesn't sound like any of the reasons you provided.    There is also a notice in TurboTax but I can't find confirmation online that WI requires electronic filing for Estate returns. So strike two TurboTax, won't allow me to file and misinformation. on top of it.  

Guess I will just mail it and see what happens since there doesn't seem to be a solution to this problem.
