I tried on both an 1120S and 1065 filing and neither would e-file but when I filed Federal Only they went right through.  There are no messages as to why it wouldn't and didn't say it wouldn't, just  was non-responsive.

    Texas Franchise Forms are scheduled to be available for efile March 19.

    For a UP to date timeframe, as indicated within this message that the forms would be ready March 19... they are STILL not... very surprising for a top tax return company.

    I'm encountering the same issue with e-filing TX Franchise Tax as of 3/4/21. The error prompts, "You cannot e-file this tax return because the Intuit Electronic Filing Center is not open for the season yet. We accept 2020 Texas Corporation tax returns from beginning of tax season to end of tax season.  We'll see you then! "

     

    Based on this message, Intuit office is not open and the tax season has not started yet?

    It's nearly May and I can't complete my Texas Franchise Tax Information Worksheet. It will not accept the name of my company as it has the past 15 years. But when I type my name, it accepts it. I do not believe this is correct, Part 1 should be the company name. Any thoughts?????
