Is anyone else getting the following error when reporting a distribution due to COVID? Form 8915D-T: Your calculations could not be completed. Reference code: 0-753-120

I get the error during complete check. I thought it would file a 8915E not a 8915D.

I solved it. None of the suggestions worked (but thank you!). I had to delete the 8915-D. The 8915-e was there but for whatever reason, so was the 8915-D.

TurboTax has worked hard with the IRS to be able to e-file form 8915-E. Since this will require programming adjustments for both the IRS and TurboTax, it will be a few weeks before these changes are made. If you wish to file this form, you have the following options:

  1. Mail in your return now and not wait until the form is available to e-file.
  2. E-file your return without the form, and then file an amended return with the form attached to it (amended returns now also can be e-filed for greater convenience).
  3. Wait until the form is available in TurboTax and e-file your entire return at once.

It should be possible to get this reported on Form 8915-E.  Delete and reenter the Form 1099-R.  On the page labeled "Do any of these situations apply to you?," mark the box to indicate that the distribution was due to a qualified disaster, proceed to the page that asks the type of disaster and answer Yes that it was due to COVID-19.  Answer the remaining questions and the result will be on Form 8915-E.
