I am helping my son and his wife do their 2025 taxes in TurboTax Standard Desktop.
She opened a FHSA in 2025 and contributed and I was able to get her return to Netfile.
He opened a FHSA in 2024 and then contributed the full eligible amount in 2025. All the math in all the forms looks fine.
But in the Netfile review process, this error is generated:
When you click on Fix, you get this:
So far as we can tell, all the information has been entered correctly and matches his 2025 FHSA Participation Room Statement that we downloaded from CRA today.
I have to say that some of the questions in the CRA forms are terribly frustrating, and in my view, the forms could be greatly simplified:
The opening Step 1 question is different than the statement right under it. He did not open his first FHSA in 2025, so the answer to the question is No. But the statement right under it says "You opened your first FHSA or became a successor holder in 2025 or in a previous year." We he did that, so the answer must be Yes.
All of these "or in a previous year" questions could also be taken to apply only to the second part of the sentence (the successor holder part in the statement above), or to the whole sentence (which includes the opening of your first FHSA).
In any event, we believe we have filled out the form / Schedule 15 correctly, everything matches the 2025 FHSA Participation Room Statement, but TurboTax Standard Desktop 2025 keeps kicking back a Netfile error with no error number. Please help us sort this out so this return can be filed.
