I'm attempting to eFile my Virginia taxes using Business 2020. When I go to submit, I get "We Need to Make One More Check". It says "Everything looks great on your return... But before you e-file, we need a little more information we didn't need earlier" then has me review.

The only thing that comes up is Schedule 502A: Section A Box Set: applicable box must be checked.

However, nothing is applicable to my business. So I leave "No entry" selected and keep hitting Continue and then I get to "Transmit Returns Now" only to be sent back to the "We Need to Make One More Check" screen in an endless loop.

Here is the fix. Create the 502A (incorrectly I know). Then go to the VIEW menu, select FORMS. On the left side go down to the 502A form (not the 502 form), and DELETE this form. Then go back to VIEW, select STEP-by-STEP, and go through the efiling process again.

Yes, I have the exact same thing. Intuit needs to answer and fix because VA requires efile and the software is blocking efile due to this bug. There is no use overide (file anyway) option that I can find.

It is the same with California. I would like to be able to file my taxes! Although it doesn't tell me to fix anything or click anything. It just kicks me back to the same previous screen. It sucks we are having this issue, but I am glad it was not something I did.

Yes this totally works I just did it. Create the 502A then delete it. Then the transmission of the VA Business will go. Thank you SO VERY MUCH!!!

I am still having problems with my Va state corporate tax return. Even after I delete the 502A form, the 502 form says it's not completed, and a review creates another Form 502A.

I don't know why the Va form wants to apportion or allocate my income. What is triggering this entry for the Form 502m Line 6 and 7?

This is really getting frustrating.

The entry should read Form 502A, Line 6 and 7.

As mentioned below, I'm having the same issue for California. Does anyone know the specific form that might be causing that error?

Thank you for this answer. It worked perfectly for me. I was having the same issues described in the main question and my State taxes e-file keep looping around the same page no matter how many times I checked. It took the entire evening for trying to find a solution and boy I finally found it. Strange that TurboTax has not fixed this old bug yet and wish I had found this solution earlier. But thanks!!

I am having the same problem this year with TurboTax Business 2022. It double checks, says everything is fine, but always comes back to the scree saying it needs information that it didn't need earlier and requires the check to be run again. Both the federal and state forms are error free. I do not see form 502A in the list of forms avaiable.
