Why did I pay if you will not file for me? Should I get a refund from my card company for fraud?

Same thing happened to me, i was super frustrated but i have good news it is a super easy fix

All you have to do is go back to your state taxes delete and re submit... When resubmitting it should automatically have u add a missing form at the end when doing a smartcheck.

@TerukoL 
I was receiving this message but do have the 8915-E form so hopefully I’ll just wait and then it will work. But, I started with deleting my state return to try that method to fix it after I already paid $4” to efile. Now when trying to resubmit, it wants to charge me $40 for my state return. How can I override that as I already paid and tried to efile already, but was unsuccessful and I’m not going to pay another $40.

You need to contact someone in customer service that can look at your order to determine why it is requesting you to upgrade and your payment information.  Here is a link to the forms listing for each product type.  If you previously paid, you should be able to print out your return from your Tax Home under Your returns and Documents.  Review the list to make sure there are not any forms that are pushing you up to the next service product.

Form 8915-E: Qualified 2020 Disaster Retirement Plan Distributions and Repayments, which is used for COVID-related early distributions, will be e-fileable starting 2/24.  The IRS is updating form 5329’s instructions to make it clear that COVID related exceptions cannot use 5329 and should use the new 8915-E.
