Error - at the time of manufacturing this product the government had not finalsized all of its form.

Tried to file again today, have 6 returns waiting to be filed.   Error at top of screen says  can’t be filed due to technical error try again after March 17th.

I have been using turbo tax for 10 years to do our taxes and file.  May need a different solution next year.   Very disappointed with having to pay such a high cost when a CD wasnt provided this year and the program had to be downloaded and then not able to to even save my returns due to errors in the software and not able to file still.

Definitely thinking of moving to another platform next year. I am expecting a large refund this year but have to wait.

I filed 2 other returns with no issues using TurboTax. They were less complicated than mine. My return has capital gains which I believe is causing the issue.

TurboTax, please respond with latest updates. What is the ETA?

@rsfindley These forms are still locked by CRA & RQ and not finalized yet. Please refer to this link Why does TurboTax say my forms are locked or haven't been finalized? 

We do not have any ETA on this yet but as soon a these forms gets finalize we will be updating them in TurboTax. 

We appreciate your patience.

it is crazy that CRA is asking us submit file before Apr. 30 but TAX software is blocking......

AND, THERE IS NO ETA..... 😮

Hello TurboTax community.

I had the impression that Ufile program was immune from this issue but they are not.

I went to a Ufile blog and discovered that they also have the same problem. Below is a response from Ufile:

Hello,

The CRA system and UFile will be updated  as soon as possible.  Thank you for your patience and understanding.

CRA New release: March 11, 2025

Reminder if you have a capital gain: You need to wait to file your T1 and T3 returns

The CRA is working diligently to update its systems to reflect the currently enacted capital gains inclusion rate of one-half. The CRA recommends that those impacted by this situation wait until the updates are completed in the coming weeks before filing their income tax and benefit return. The CRA will grant relief in respect of late-filing penalties and interest until June 2, 2025, for individual filers and until May 1, 2025, for Trust filers to provide additional time for taxpayers reporting capital gains to meet their tax filing obligations.

Here is the CRA link that addresses the capital gains issue. Once opened, go down the page.
